RE: Schrödinger's Biggest Cat: "Quantum In Real Life"

in #steemstem7 years ago

After all, this experiment proved that the paradox of "Schrödinger's cat" was not a paradox.

Well, it has never been, IMO. The wave function of a "cat" system (that could be either dead or alive or zombie) has no sense since the cat is not an isolated closed system. The continuous exchanges between the cat and the environment make decoherence happening quickly.

This being said, this was a really nice post and I didn't know about the results you describe at the end of the post. Thanks!

Sort:  

This experiment was a good example of that the quantum applicability to a many-body (or macro) system in real life. But it is better to go on understanding quantum mechanics on its own scale which is the sub-atomic ranges. Otherwise, unless we can't have repeatable and meaningful results in the real macroscopic world, it will not that useful for the science.

Thank you for your nice comment :)
