Schrödinger’s cat just got a little bit fatter. Physicists have created the largest ever ‘superposition’ — a quantum state in ...

Physicists have pushed one of the strangest ideas in science into new territory, holding tiny clumps of metal in a quantum limbo that recalls Schrödinger’s famous cat. Instead of a single atom or ...

Researchers have created a quantum superposition state in a semiconductor nanostructure that might serve as a basis for quantum computing. The trick: two optical laser pulses that act as a single ...

In quantum mechanics, particles can exist in a superposition state, like the famous Schrödinger cat being alive and dead at the same time. Even more counterintuitive: two particles can become ...
