How many famous paradoxes in Quantum Mechanic?
1. Schrödinger’s cat
2. Einstein, Podolsky, Rozen paradox
What else?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
A few more...

von Neumann's measurement pointer superposition (later illustrated by Schrodinger as the cat paradox) and the related "von Neumann chain" created by measuring the measuring device with more and measuring devices so the problem spreads...

Indirect Measurement paradox

Delayed Choice paradox

I suggest you look up the word "paradox" in a suitable dictionary. It is a much stronger term than all of these posts imply. There is no single paradox within the mathematical framework of quantum mechanics.
 

Thread 'Quantum Entanglement is a Kinematic Fact, not a Dynamical Effect'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
