One of the principles of quantum physics, illustrated by the Schrodinger's cat thought experiment, is that the act of measurement collapses an object's waveform into a single, observed state.

量子物理学的原理之一，由薛定谔猫理想实验阐明，是说测量行为将一个物体的波形叠加成一个单一的观察状态。

CAT scanners, MRI imagers, laser surgical tools and much more — they're based on fundamental laws of physics.

CAT扫描仪、核磁共振成像仪、激光外科手术工具，当然还有很多……它们都是基于物理学的基本原理。

But getting back to something else in your e-mail-i think what your cat Casper did when he was hiding behind that flap of bedspread falls under what I call Feline Physics.

让我们回到您邮件里的另一个话题——您的猫卡斯珀藏在床单后面的情况，我个人称之为猫科物理学。
