Schrödinger's famous thought experiment with the dead-and-alive cat is more than 80 years old but it still gives physicists headaches. In this video, I tell you about some recent experiments that they have done to figure out what is really going on.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GerzZ6GDe-0 …

could the quantum superposition of 100,000,000 laser photons be used as a seed to amplify a pumped laser to, say, go in a laser display like you might see at a concert?

how big can it get before it collapses? something visible to the human eye definitely (even 1 photon is in light adapted eyes) but could it be amplified to something very bright? maybe the lasing material would have to be cooled

I don’t expect anybody to directly see the super position.
