It is in a steel chamber with a device described as follows: a Geiger counter contains a tiny bit of substance that has a fifty percent chance of decaying over the course of an hour, and if that substance decays a flask of hydrocyanic acid is shattered.

Quantum mechanics must describe the state of the substance using superposition, but it does not make sense to describe the state of this animal the same way. Identify this animal in a thought experiment that belonged to the Austrian physicist who imagined it.
