Today’s reading is The Cat in the Box by Rebecca Montange.
All the information we have on Rebecca Montange in the Quantum Shorts book is that she entered their flash fiction competition in 2013. A web search turned up this: Rebecca earned her Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, Boulder. Her Ph.D. subject in biochemistry was: Structure of Riboswitches. She was awarded a National Research Council Fellowship. Let’s go with that.
The quantum concept in The Cat in the Box is Schrödinger’s Cat.
The Schrödinger’s Cat experiment from the point of view of the cat, its superposed self and the miscreant students making use of their boss’ pet. What could possibly go wrong?
