If we compare this experiment with the quantum particle, like without knowing the final position (result) of the particle, we cannot say that what result we would get, because before measuring quantum particles remain in superposition, this Cat experiment was like that. Hammer was attached with the radioactive sensor in such a way that when the radioactive substance started decaying it would sense the decay of the substance and release the hammer on the poisonous gas-filled bottle, by which that cat would die.Īs long as the box remains closed, we cannot say about the state of the cat whether it is dead or alive, only after opening the box, we would say that whether the cat is dead or alive. The radioactive substance was like that it had a 50% chance of Decaying. Along with the cat he also placed a radioactive substance, a bottle filled with poisonous gas, a hammer, and a radioactive sensor in the box.
Schrodinger Cat Experiment: Image Credit: Wikimedia Commonįor this experiment, Schrodinger locked a live cat in a box. So for the disapprobation of this theory in the case of big objects, Schrödinger took the aid of an experiment popularly known as the Schrodinger Cat Experiment.Īlso Read The Higgs Boson and Higgs Field: Simple Explanation Schrodinger Cat Experiment: Simple Explanation But in reality, we know that it is not like that, we always see all objects in a single state. because all are made-up of quantum particles. Moreover, so if Quantum mechanics is right then the same principle must be applied to massive objects like human beings, celestial bodies, animals, and other stuff, etc.
Means before the detection of the state of the particles we cannot say that we would get that state after detection. When with the help of some devices we try to find out the position of a particle then their wave function gets collapsed and they come into a single state. It is already proved a number of times in Quantum mechanics that until we don’t measure the state of any particles they remain in more than one state, in physics which we call superposition.
