IF YOU BELIEVE IN sCIENCE YOU'VE NOT UNDERSTOOD IT:
They've finally solved it: Schrödinger's cat is both ALIVE AND DEAD (Richard Chirgwin, 2/08/15, The Register)
An international group of quantum physics researchers reckons it's come up with an experimental validation of the reality of the wave-function.It's one of quantum mechanics' most elusive concepts, ever since Erwin Schrödinger crafted the famous "Schrödinger's cat" thought experiment.In the current experiment, led by Martin Ringbauer of the University of Queensland, photons seem to genuinely exist in multiple states until they're measured.
