Schrodinger's Cat Part 4
How does the mathematics of Quantum Theory MODEL this situation? First, you assign the live cat a mathematical object called an eigenstate Ea. What is that? Do you really want to know? I didn't think so. Suffice it to say that it can have different formulations, depending on whether you use matrices or complex functions. It doesn't matter.
Then you assign the dead cat an eigenstate Ed. Both represent the state of the cat after you open and observe the cat, as either alive Ea or dead Ed, respectively. Then you describe its state S of "uncertainty" as
S = A(Ed) + B(Ed).
That is, the state of the unobserved cat is a additive combination of its alive state and dead state. A and B are just numbers.
Proving the Relativistic Energy-Momentum relation, the hard way and the easier way.
This adds the proof for the relativistic mass effects from motion, proving that gravity causes it.
