Schrödinger's cat: a cat, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source connected to a Geiger counter are placed in a sealed box. As illustrated, the quantum description uses a superposition of an alive cat and one that has died. In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition.
The paradox arises when one considers what would happen if one attached a piece of buttered toast (butter side up) to the back of a cat, then dropped the cat from a large height. The buttered cat paradox, submitted by artist John Frazee of Kingston, New York , won a 1993 Omni magazine competition about paradoxes.

Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment, usually described as a paradox, devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. It illustrates what he saw as absurdities in the views that other physicists had about quantum mechanics (ideas later labeled the Copenhagen interpretation ), by applying them not to microscopic objects but to ...
Watch more clips of humans scaring cats with cucumbers: Cats VS. Cucumbers. Theory three: Cats associate the places they eat with safety and security. That's according to Pam Johnson-Bennett ...
The experiments start with a dog's heart, attached to a set of tubes to serve as substitutes for the great vessels. Using a system to supply it with blood, the heart beats in the same manner as if it were inside a living organism. The film then shows a lung in a tray, which is operated by bellows that oxygenate the blood being sent to the heart.
