A Quantum Physics Approach: Schrodinger's Cat
In 1935, Erwin Schrödinger wrote a rather unfortunate scenario about quantum mechanics. He thought that quantum objects could be put into a superposition state. So instead of having an electron in one place, he thought that both could be in one place at the same time. Besides, he imagined a cat trapped inside a box with quantum resources, and he takes this idea to the top. Schrödinger said that if no one opened the box and checked, we wouldn't know if the cat was alive or dead. And most importantly, if we open the box to control the poor cat, the wave function whose quantum sources keep the electrons in superposition will collapse. BANG! Quantum cat is dead.
Or not dead. Many physicists disagree about the collapse of the quantum wavefunction when the subject is quantum cats or any other idea for that matter. That is, the situation develops only according to the Schrödinger equation and gives us probabilities to observe different results. We don't need to open the quantum cat's box to check this out. If we can look inside instead, we can ask the cat what quantum properties are involved. However, there is still a small possibility that due to quantum deformation, the quantum cat may actually die.
Schrodinger's Cat Experiment
To explain more clearly, this famous analogy of Schrödinger was as follows;
He said that if it were possible to enclose a cat in a steel can with a cyanide-filled gas bottle, the mechanism to which the cat was attached to the hammer would cause an explosion large enough to open a piece of steel when the hammer hit the bottle. A bottle is easily broken with a hammer. But the possibility of the cat hitting the container and breaking the bottle is the key point here. So in any case either the bottle will break or the cyanide gas will be released and the cat will die. But we won't know which quantum path the quantum cat is following until we open that box. Whether he's dead or not.
So is it just bullshit? Definitely not. Because many physicists describe the quantum mechanics of the universe as being on a smaller scale than stars and galaxies. So this means that the quantum effect is a negligible factor of luck in everyday human life.
If you ask if quantum mechanics is useful; of course it is! That's why quantum cat experiments are still being done today. Because quantum effects are also used to perform important tasks such as securing information and collecting data in molecules.
Schrodinger thought the cat idea was ridiculous. But today we know that quantum deformation is used in technology and engineering. It even applies to quantum philosophy of life.
So we give up on Schrödinger's theory that we don't know what quantum objects do unless they are observed, and the idea that quantum resources will disappear. That's what quantum is like, and it looks like we won't be able to get out of the idea that quantum is crazy.
If you have embraced the quantum philosophy of life, you know that every event has a consequence. So Schrodinger says; “Every quantum event has a quantum consequence.” We don't know when this quantum event will occur, but of course it will cause something and cause the mechanics to collapse. Maybe the little things can add up to make a big impact.
Quantum philosophy of life is really interesting. It is also interesting to try to explain this obscurity with something and evaluate the possibilities. We humans have always questioned life since our existence. Quantum philosophy is just like that.
