The famous cat experiment in 1935 of the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger became one of the most iconic and debated concepts in science. Both for its intellectual depth and its unusual imagery, ...

In 1935, quantum physicist Erwin Schrödinger suggested a controversial thought experiment to highlight the paradoxical nature of time in quantum mechanics. 1 In the experiment, he supposed that ...

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 ...

Quantum states can only be prepared and observed under highly controlled conditions. A research team has now succeeded in creating so-called hot Schrodinger cat states in a superconducting microwave ...
