'Macroscopic Quantum Phenomena' by Wangpin Ren
Wangping Ren: "Macroscopic Quantum Phenomena"
Since the birth of quantum mechanics in the last century, it has been developed to interpret the laws in the microscopic world (atomic/sub-atomic). It would seem bizarre when quantum mechanics is applied to macroscopic objects, for instance, the Schrodinger’s cat. In this talk, I’ll introduce the macroscopic quantum phenomena that naturally occur as well as our current understandings of them in terms of quantum physics.
