Character: schrödinger's cat

The imaginary cat used in one of Erwin Schrödinger's thought experiments to answer a problem in quantum theory. It is supposed that the cat has a truly 50/50 percent chance of death due to a subatomic event, meaning that the cat could be both alive and dead, but the universe decides on one once this cat is observed.

This character is often portrayed as a cat that is both alive and dead within a sealed box.
