RE: Schrödinger's Cat In pop Culture

in #science7 years ago

If curiosity kills the cat, we should never open that box, should we? Or can we open it somehow without curiosity and give the cat some chance to scape alive? Is just being alive better than being dead and alive at the same time or is it half the fun? Does that make Schrödinger's cat a vampire?

Sort:  

In fact the cat can also be alive when you oppen the box. The alive/dead at the same time occur only when the box is closed. The result is fixed and can't change once the box has been opened. Even if a vampire zombie cat could be really cool it's unfortunatly not possible (too bad). I confess that this is a really hard theme that I don't master really well but I know that this "experiment" is (volouterely?) overly reducteur of the double state phenomena and that it doesn't respect any scale. Nevertheless it is still a great way to explain a very complex phenomena quite easily.
