Oxford physicists just made Schrödinger’s cat even stranger

Reconstructed Wigner function of a superposition of two trisqueezed states. Its sixfold rotational symmetry and regions of Wigner negativity reveal highly non-classical quantum interference in the ion’s motion.

Unlike previous versions, these newly demonstrated states are
