[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 5884227, member: 710"] Well, the detector isn't a person, so I think it doesn't apply. Also, the description text for the image is inconsistent with the explanation of the article itself. Okay, so they are their own anti-particle. But do they destroy each other (like Fermions do) or not (like Bosons do). I believe they destroy each other, though, since further Wikipedia research suggests that Neutrinos are a possible candidate for being Majorana Fermions, and if so, there were possible forms of beta decay that would be neutrino-less. Which to me indicates that the neutrino and anti-neutrino destroy each other, leaving no neutrinos behind. Yes, but that has nothing to do with the article. They quantum entangled the cat with a mouse in a different box. Now, if the cat dies, the mouse lives. So you only have to open the mouse box, and can keep the cat box closed! This is a considerably improvement, as the mouse box is much smaller and can be transported more easily to any scientific event where the question needs to be resolved. Also, in case the cat is alive, she was usually reported to be very angry, clawing after the scientists opening the box. The mouse just runs away*.
