    A variant of the Schrödinger's cat experiment, known as the quantum suicide machine, has been proposed by cosmologist Max Tegmark. It examines the Schrödinger's cat experiment from the point of view of the cat, and argues that by using this approach, one may be able to distinguish between the Copenhagen interpretation and many-worlds.

    The time it takes light to traverse back-and-forth along the Lorentz–contracted length of the longitudinal arm is given by: = + = / + / + = / = where T 1 is the travel time in direction of motion, T 2 in the opposite direction, v is the velocity component with respect to the luminiferous aether, c is the speed of light, and L L the length of the longitudinal interferometer arm.

    Original puzzle box designed by Edward Thorndike. In 1898, American psychologist, Edward Thorndike proposed the 'law of effect', which formed the basis of operant conditioning. [8] Thorndike conducted experiments to discover how cats learn new behaviors. His work involved monitoring cats as they attempted to escape from puzzle boxes.
