The cat is deceased, maybe: quantum physics
Article Abstract:
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have publicized the results of a berylium cation experiment modelled after Erwin Schrodinger's 'cat' thought experiment. The NIST study sheds light on the collapse of quantum superposition, which is known as decoherence.

Improper fractions: quantum mechanics
Article Abstract:
Quantum mechanics have long been used to postulate on the essence of both photons and electrons, saying that within light and electricity nothing can be lesser than these. Now researchers have come across subtleties that indicate electrons can be divided into fractions.
