This is a revision of John Trimmer’s English translation of Schrödinger’s famous ‘cat paper’, originally published in three parts in Naturwissenschaften in 1935.
We present a few of the gedanken- and real experiments that demonstrate the spookiness of quantum mechanics. We discuss the Einstein,Podolsky, and Rosengedankenexperiment that invokes hidden variables to create a paradox. We analyze Bell’s analysis of the paradox, which shows that the predictions of quantum mechanics are inconsistent with local hidden variable theories. We discuss the Schrödinger cat paradox, and the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics.
