What exactly does Schrodinger's cat mean?

It's a thought experiment in quantum physics. In it, a cat is imagined to be in a box with a vial of poison gas. Whether the vial breaks or not is dependent on whether an atom of an element decays or not. Schrodinger believed that this showed an interpretation of quantum physics to be invalid or incomplete, as the Copenhagen interpretation would say that the cat could simultaneously be alive and dead at once.

What do you call a large spotted civet?

What do I call it? If it lived in my house and it was actually a cat I would probably--probably--call it Steven. I might call it Schrodinger, maybe. On the other hand, I think what you are looking for is not the name of a cat [and the civet isn't really a cat anyway]. It's the name for the type of civet that is large and spotted. I think the one you want is the African civet, Civettictis civetta. It is not only covered with spots and of a decent size, it's the one to which most people refer--unless, of course, they are thinking about coffee. Then the Asian palm civet is your culprit--but it is of a different look altogether.

How did Erwin Schrodinger achieve quantum mechanics?

schrodinger's dad worked with albert Einstein. Schrodinger looked up to Einstein and was amazed by his ways of thinking. Einstein inspired Schrodinger to become a scientist.
