Scientists have obtained images of the schrö²dinger cat

Physics from Vienna and new York first showed pictures of the camera when the latter have not seen the original image.

Visualization produced by the apparatus using a stencil and lasers, has the shape of cats and conditionally reminiscent of the quantum effect of the schrö²dinger cat.

The effects of own research scientists published in the journal Nature, and briefly they can be found on the website of National Geographic.

In my own work, scientists were able to use the property of quantum entanglement (non-locality), in order to show once again the thought experiment of schrö²dinger. The essence of quantum phenomena is contained in the fact that it is impossible to determine whether alive or dead cat (in the classical sense), not opening the drawer, which he locked.

According to quantum mechanics (depending on interpretation), the opening of the mailbox (the procedure of measurement changes the state of the cat and the observer sees the animal is no longer in the same condition in which it was previously. Quantum position, the cat was placed in a state characterized by the imposition (by superposition) States, describing the living and dead cat.

In the experience of scientists confused photons from the image of the subject in the form of a cat with other quanta of light. Last, due to quantum nonlocality and still showed an initial image of a cat 1 group of particles. The specifics of the situation professionals was the use of a pair of laser light beams with 2 different wavelengths (for example, red and yellow or blue and yellow).

To create a unique image of a cat scientists have adopted the stencil with the animal. As we are told of physics, they are not "opened a new science, but carefully showed the old".

The phenomenon shown by scientists, has no traditional counterparts. In the quantum world, the situation is different: the entanglement implies that subsystems previously unified explode after their distances from each other continue to experience mutual action. The debate on how we relate to the principle of locality and entanglement, takes various forms and depends on the interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Researchers have filed a patent application installation, created in the course of their experience. Physics presented that the method of visualization of entangled photons using two-tone waves may find application in medicine to create an exact image of the damaged tissues without the final act of malicious radiation, or the production of silicon chips.
