Superposition / Υπέρθεση
Term of the day:
Adjective Superposition The ability of a particle to "exist" in many states simultaneously, until it is observed.
Example:
An electron is not located in just one point,
but exists in all possible points — until you measure it.
Then it collapses into a single state.
Schrödinger’s cat paradox:
A cat in a box is both alive and dead,
until you open the box.
An allegory for quantum superposition.
Ancient echoes:
Parmenides: Being is existence is beyond the senses.
Quantum physics tells us: Reality exists, but not necessarily as we perceive it.
Reality isn't just one thing— until you look at it.
