An artist's illustration of three Schrödinger's cats. Physicists have created the world's heaviest Schrödinger's cat, bringing the bizarre behavior of the quantum world to larger scales than ever ...

Scientists have just kicked the famous Schrodinger’s cat thought experiment up a notch by cutting that poor old hypothetical cat in half, sticking him in two boxes, and confirming that he still ...

The paradox of Schrödinger’s cat—in which a quantum cat is both alive and dead at the same time until we check to see which state it’s in—is arguably the most famous example of the bizarre ...

Quantum mechanics attempts to understand how the universe works on an atomic and subatomic level, and so far it turns out things get pretty weird down there. Take the concept of a superposition. The ...

Physicists have created a Schrödinger's cat state at unusually hot temperatures, and it could be a major step toward the development of practical quantum computers. Schrödinger's cat states exist in ...

Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough approved an experiment last year to implant sensors for a prosthetic hand into cats — a move that members of Congress say is “at odds” with new federal laws ...

Physicists have placed part of a sapphire crystal into a quantum superposition, making it the heaviest object to show quantum effects, in a new take on Erwin Schrödinger's famous cat experiment. When ...
