Schrödinger's Cat Is Alive and Dead in Two Places at Once (1 of 1)

video: A sophisticated Schrodinger's cat is present in two boxes simultaneously, while being dead and alive at the same time. This cat can only be observed in its entirety by opening both boxes, but not one of the boxes. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the May 27, 2016, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by C. Wang at Schoelkopf at Yale University in New Haven, CT, and colleagues was titled, 'A Schrödinger cat living in two boxes.' view more
