Abstract
The paradigmatic example of a macroscopic superposition that relates to Schrodinger’s 1935 paradox involves two states ψ+ and ψ−, macroscopically distinct in the sense that the predicted binned values ± 1 of a realizable measurement X are macroscopically different. Such superpositions however have been shown to be extremely sensitive to decoherence.
