In the world of quantum,infinitesimally small particles, weird and often logic-defying behaviors abound. Perhaps the strangest of these is the opinion of superposition, or in which objects can exist simultaneously in two or more seemingly counterintuitive states. For example,according to the laws of quantum mechanics, electrons may spin both clockwise and counter-clockwise, or be both at rest and excited,at the same time.
