The Interactive Schrödinger's Cat

Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. It poses the question, when does a quantum system stop existing as a superposition of states and become one or the other? You can read more about Schrödinger's Cat here.

With the Interactive Schrödinger's Cat you can do a rather silly experiment in quantum physics. By pressing the 'Open The Bag' button you can 'simulate' the Schrödinger's cat experiment.
