No one in the world can fathom what quantum mechanics is, this is perhaps the most important thing you need to know about it. Granted, many physicists have learned to use its laws and even predict phenomena based on quantum calculations. But it is still unclear why the observer of an experiment determines the behavior of the system and causes it to favor one state over another. Here are some examples of quantum experiments with outcomes that will inevitably be influenced by the observer, which shows how quantum mechanics deals with the intervention of conscious thought in material reality. 5 Most Notorious Quantum Experiments
1. Schrödinger’s cat
Today, there are many interpretations of quantum mechanics with the Copenhagen interpretation being perhaps the most famous to-date.
