Quantum Fiction: The Entanglement of Physics and Literature
The invention of quantum physics in the early 20th century forced scientists to reconsider many cherished ideas from classical physics, leading to revolutionary changes in our scientific and philosophical understanding of the universe. Quantum phenomena have also proven to be a rich source of metaphors and inspiration for fiction.
Chad Orzel, author and professor at Union College, New York, describes some of the strangest phenomena in quantum mechanics – topics like entanglement, quantum measurement, and Schrodinger's infamous cat – and discusses some of their manifestations in literature and film.
