Stethoscope Mechanical
Can Schrodingers cat be said to posses enough intelligence to collapse the probability wave?
and would it do it before the box has been opened by an external viewer?
schrodingers cat in a box experiment states that the cat is in a superposition of states until the box is opened and observed, then it "decides" wether to be alive or dead as a result of the release of the radioactive particle.
at what point does the intelligence of the observer come into the equation? would mechanically opening the box and placing a stethoscope and tape recorder against the cats chest be enough to collapse the probability wave and determine the state of the cat? or does the observer have to be able to intelligently interpret the state of the cat?
and if the observer has to be intelligent, not purely mechanical, can the cat posess enough intelligence to collapse the wave, making the whole paradox pointless?
to summarize, can the cats own observation of its physical state be enough to collapse the wave?
I don't recommend buying into what these other people are spinning if you want to actually understand what this is all about.
Look at the following site, you'll need it to get an idea of what a bubble chamber is which you will need for what I will try to convey to you.
http://rd11.web.cern.ch/RD11/rkb/PH14pp/node17.html
Now, look at that bubble chamber picture (the one with all the lines, with a couple of cross-hairs and x's.)
See those lines? Those are the paths of charged particles through the bubble chamber. The LIQUID they are passing through was what COLLAPSED those particles' wave functions. That is why they look like particle lines and not some sort of interference pattern. Now, do you think some boiling vat of chemicals is more intelligent than a cat?
Events are what collapse wave functions, not observation by some intelligent being. That is unless you want to think of CF2Cl2 molecules as intelligent beings. But, hey, whatever floats your boat.
Some of your responders are attempting to argue a point which I, as a human, can't refute; that we can't say for sure whether or not the wave functions were collapsed until we look at the results of the bubble chamber, and thus THAT observation was what collapsed them.
Personally, I see that stance as grasping at straws. We're just part of the universe. We are NOT what decides what reality is. That last bit is just my humble opinion though. Believe what you want.
(Note: the one person made a really good point about the anthropic principle and that a cat can't percieve it's own death. However, if you followed what I said, you'll see that it doesn't really matter anyway).
