From superconductivity to macroscopic quantum phenomena: a path marked by Nobel Prizes

Is it possible to create a Schrödinger’s cat in a laboratory - that is, to make a macroscopic object obey the laws of quantum mechanics? The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics recognizes experiments showing that this is indeed possible, using superconducting electrical circuits.

Abstract

Is it possible to create a Schrödinger’s cat in a laboratory - that is, to make a macroscopic object obey the laws of quantum mechanics? The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics recognizes experiments showing that this is indeed possible, using superconducting electrical circuits.
