{"text":"One of the most curious consequences of quantum physics is that a particle like an electron can seemingly be in more than one place at the same time until it is observed, at which point there seems to be a random choice made about where the particle is really located. Scientists currently believe that this randomness is genuine, not just caused by a lack of information. Repeat the experiment under the same conditions and you may get a different answer each time.","author":"Marcus du Sautoy","tags":["believe","choice","conditions","consequences","curious","different","electron","genuine","information","located","location","observed","particle","quantum-field-theory","quantum-physics","random","randomness","repeat","science","scientists"],"id":480305,"author_id":"Marcus+du+Sautoy"}
