[The world is fluctuating, on the inference that light propagates in vacuum. ], [Shocking, the latest explanation of the light diffraction phenomenon, the wave theory is just a clown’s lie! ], [The biggest omission in particle theory is this, optics is in danger! 】……
In the City of Fire and Oil, in the Optical Magic Laboratory, Glenn slowly put down the newspaper template in his hand and couldn't help but rant. "Roel, you are serious. It's noisy outside now. Is it really okay for you to send these things out?"
"Of course, no problem. Look, in just one and a half months, we have already received more optical papers than in the previous year!" Luo Er replied with a smile, and then continued with a helpless look.
"And I can't afford to offend either Master Anthony or Master Jeffrey. I can just post whatever they write!"
Rohr said that at most he was responsible for coming up with an eye-catching title and polishing it a little bit!
Glenn was speechless, but he had to admit that competition was indeed the biggest motivation for magic research.
Over the past few days, wizards who support the particle and wave theories have conducted extremely detailed studies on the various characteristics of light and have come up with a large number of conjectures.
Some conjectures are completely unreasonable and illogical, but there are also many theories that are supported by experimental evidence. As long as these arguments are confirmed, you can get a Morning Star or even a Silver Moon Medal.
Seeing that Green had fully understood his difficulties, Rohr smiled and took the template in his hand, then handed it to the assistant on the side, asking him to speed up printing.
Yesterday they printed a total of 900,000 newspapers and distributed them to all the cities under the kingdom and newly occupied cities. They were all sold out within a few hours, which shows that they were not printed fast enough!
"By the way, Glenn, I heard that Master Sanchez, one of the founders of the photoelectric theory, visited you in person last night. Is that true?" Rohr suddenly asked in a gossipy tone, and he picked up the pen unconsciously, as if Looks like he's always ready to record.
Thinking about it with your feet, you can tell that Master Sanchez must want to win over Glenn, the famous developer of light focusing magic.
If you agree, it will definitely be a big hit!
Although Glenn is only a three-ring wizard, he came up with a shocking plan to measure the speed of light with a thousand-faceted mirror at the last academic seminar, and accidentally created the light-gathering magic, and obtained the magic of that person. The potential influence is no worse than that of a great wizard.
When Rohr asked about this, Glenn couldn't help but smile bitterly. In fact, it was not just Sanchez. Several wizards who advocated the light wave theory also came to him and explained the superiority of the wave theory to him in detail. However, he There was no answer from either side.
Firstly, they don’t want to be involved in this dispute, and secondly, both theories have unexplainable optical phenomena.
For example, the light wave theory explains very well the dispersion, diffraction, interference, superposition and other effects of light, but is very weak in explaining the photoelectric effect and pinhole imaging.
As for the explosion theory of electric elements used by wizards who believe in particle theory to explain diffraction phenomena, Glenn feels that it is not reliable at all. It is completely like a theory made up to explain the phenomenon, without practical experiments. as evidence.
Before figuring it out, Glenn thought it would be better not to take sides randomly, so as not to overturn in the end.
Rohr, who wanted to make big news, had to put away the pen and paper in disappointment and asked about the progress of lighting photography technology.
This is an optical phenomenon that Glenn discovered a year ago. If a plate with a small hole is blocked between the wall and the object, an inverted real image of the object will be formed on the wall.
Glenn was pretty sure that he was not the first person to discover this phenomenon, but he was definitely the first wizard to take advantage of it!
There is an oil producing area not far from the city of fire and oil. He accidentally found a kind of asphalt that is extremely sensitive to light while on duty.
This kind of asphalt will harden under the irradiation of light, and the degree of hardening will be different depending on the degree of light. Using this characteristic and the principle of small hole imaging, he successfully produced the first generation of light camera.
The problem is that it is too troublesome to use this asphalt to make photosensitive plates, and the images produced are difficult to copy, which is not conducive to large-scale dissemination.
So this year Glenn has been trying to use different elements to make photosensitive equipment to improve the lighting camera. Now it has been upgraded to the third version, and the photo copying problem has been initially solved.
The first large-scale use was in a public opinion battle to undermine the faith of the people in the empire.
"As for the improvement of cameras, I already have a plan that can further increase the clarity of photos through development. The printing magic developed by Speaker Lynn may also be used to copy images..."
Glenn talked eloquently about the latest achievements in optical photography, and when he got up, he even wanted to demonstrate the developing magic he had developed to Roel!
Luo Er was also extremely interested. After all, every time the photography technology improves, the sales of [Magic Daily] will be better. Under Glenn's instructions, he quickly stood on a photosensitive screen.
"It's like this!" Glenn stretched out his right hand, closed his eyes and began to sense and create electricity.
He has no way to directly create light, and can only indirectly control the light beam through the phenomenon of electroluminescence.
Of course, according to the particle school, photoelectricity is probably the same thing, but light is a more microscopic existence than electricity.
Rolle stood there and waited with great interest for a while, but to his surprise, Glenn did not move for a long time, and his face was full of panic.
"What's wrong, Glenn?" Rohr immediately noticed something was wrong, and he was vaguely worried about his own safety. Could it be that there was something wrong with this magic?
"Where's the charge... Where's the charge? The charge is gone!" Glenn opened his eyes suddenly and said in horror.
"What?" Luo Er was stunned, and for a moment he didn't understand what this meant.
Of course he knew what electric charge was, which was a substance with positive and negative charges. Generally speaking, thunder magic relied on artificially creating this potential difference.
"The charge is gone, I suddenly can't feel it!" Glenn's eyes were red, and his voice was trembling faintly. Now he can't even create the simplest electric current, and he can't use any thunder magic!
"Glenn, this is not the time for joking." Rohr frowned, but he saw Glenn running to the motor on one side like crazy, stretched his hand in, and used his body to sense the current. Realized the seriousness of the problem.
Rohr hurriedly ran over, but he did not dare to disturb Glenn's movements. He could only watch helplessly as his body shook rapidly and unconsciously under the attack of electric current. It took several minutes before he stopped dejectedly.
"How is it?" Rohr asked worriedly.
"Electricity exists...Electricity exists! It's just that I have no way to control it!" Glenn murmured to himself, his face full of puzzlement and confusion.
"Are you too tired? Do you want to take a rest first?" Rohr said soothingly. He felt that it might be Glenn who had been conducting research day and night these days, which caused him to feel depressed.
"No, I'm fine, very fine!" Glenn said forcefully, reaching out his hand with a crazy expression, and a bursting fireball appeared in his palm.
This is exactly the second ring magic [Pyrotechnic]...
Apparently, his mental powers were not so weakened that he was unable to perform magic.
Without waiting for Rohr's reply, Glenn eagerly called his assistant and asked him to cast a thunder spell. Any kind of thunder spell would do.
After hearing Glenn's weird request, the assistant was also confused. However, after trying it for a while, the same horrifying look appeared on his face, and he yelled in collapse. "What about the charge? Where did the charge go?"
Rohr and Glenn looked at each other, and a chill suddenly surged into his heart from the soles of his feet. He immediately put down everything he was doing, and hurriedly wrote an urgent letter and sent it to the Holy City to report this strange situation. To you Speakers.
In fact, the desk of the Magic Council has long been filled with similar letters. There are not a few wizards like Glenn who suddenly find that they have lost the ability to control lightning, and they are spreading rapidly like a plague...
After some investigation, the council quickly came to the conclusion that as long as a wizard questions the nature of photoelectricity, he will immediately lose the ability to sense electric charges within the elemental horizon.
What confuses them the most is that those wizards who simply believe in the particle or wave theory all have normal spell-casting abilities, but almost all the wizards who are watching the fun are wiped out.
The milder ones are just intermittent spellcasting difficulties, and the most serious ones are like Glenn, who completely lost the ability to sense electric charges.
Panic spread throughout the kingdom. This 'disease' called spellcasting disorder had never happened before. Most wizards were worried whether they were affected or not. These worries and panic soon turned into The wrath of the Wave Doctrine.
Originally, everyone was casting spells well, but as soon as Jeffrey's wave theory came out, they were immediately unable to deal with it. Now even the release of the thunder spell has become a problem!
A dozen great wizards from the particle sect jointly issued a joint article the next day, angrily denouncing the wave theory in [Magic Daily] as a fallacy that shakes the foundation of magic!
Coupled with the criticism from many neutrals, the Fluctuation Doctrine, which was already at a disadvantage, even reached the point where everyone was calling for beatings.
Until a piece of bombshell news directly exploded everyone's awareness!
Without any warning, Anthony suddenly turned around and believed in the wave theory, and published an article stating that he had found new evidence, and even discovered a new model that could explain the structure of the atom based on this!
After receiving this news, Sanchez, Arad and other great wizards of the particle sect were completely stunned. They were about to take advantage of this opportunity to strangle the wave wheel in the cradle and return magic to orthodoxy. As a result, Anthony discovered the photoelectric effect. The number one hero actually rebelled!
"Is Anthony crazy?" Sanchez jumped in anger.
The achievements of the Particle Faction over the past few months were directly destroyed. The furious Sanchez wanted to kill Anthony directly.
"Does light really fluctuate?" Arad was extremely confused. Apart from that, he couldn't think of the reason why Anthony suddenly switched to the Volatility Sect.
"Have you forgotten our research? Arad?" Sanchez's face suddenly darkened. They have successfully 'explained' every phenomenon of light using particle theory, and now only a few decisive evidences are left!
What's more, Anthony also boasted that he had found a new model to explain the internal structure of the elements.
This is simply crazy. You must know that Speaker Linn's star orbit element model has been recognized by all wizards and can only be described as perfect.
Any wizard who sees the orbital model will recognize without hesitation that this is the ultimate form of the elements!
Also, photoelectricity is integrated into one body. Could it be that the electrons inside the element also fluctuate?
Sanchez never believed in this absurd theory, but the impact of Anthony, the proposer of the photoelectric effect,'s 'rebellion' was still terrible. A large number of wizards who believed in the particle sect were shaken and instantly lost the ability to sense electric charges.
This dispute, which has spread more and more widely, has vaguely exceeded the boundaries of debate, and has naturally attracted the attention of Harov and others.
Even Linn, who was immersed in studying quantum theory, received the report.
"Is there any obstacle in casting?" After listening to Philip and others' description, Linn was also quite surprised. He did not expect that the dispute between particles and waves would lead to such serious consequences.
"Master Dean, are you okay?" Philip couldn't help but asked. Now nearly half of the people have lost the ability to sense electric charges.
"Of course it's okay..." Lin En raised his eyebrows, surrounded by lightning. This was the lightning spell - [Electromagnetic Barrier]!
Seeing that the magic star was fine, Philip and others breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that nearly half of the wizards have lost the ability to cast corresponding spells.
Many wizards who support the theory of light particles even gave this spellcasting obstacle a new term called the 'fluctuation plague', which means that the wave theory is the source of this magic crisis and will spread like a plague.
After some thought, Lin En vaguely guessed the cause of this magical crisis.
Although the 'electrotherapy induction' method developed by Anthony gives wizards the ability to perceive and control electric charges, to put it bluntly, this is just a trick, and their understanding of electricity is very limited.
It's like a child who has reluctantly learned to walk and run by relying on muscle memory. Now two people suddenly appear and argue with each other, insisting on telling the child whether it is more scientific to step with the left foot first or to step with the right foot first when walking. Science, which leg nerve should be controlled, and what is the most appropriate step, directly confused the child who could run away, and now he can't even walk...
PS: In response to some people’s inquiries, although the magic process in this book refers to the development of modern science to a certain extent, it is impossible to directly follow the historical process because wizards have the ability to perceive and control elements. For example, when explaining universal gravitation before, why did we mention the distortion of gravity’s essential space? Because wizards have the ability to perceive space, so they must be able to discover the connection between the two... The same is true now when explaining wave theory. , wizards know the existence of gravitational waves, so there is no need to invent the material ether as the carrier of light waves. As for blackbody radiation, that thing is too long to write about, but I will mention it later. In addition, in addition to the scientific conjectures that have existed in history, I will also write about some purely imaginary theories that I saw when searching for information, such as the above theory of photoelectric element explosion, which was born out of the "nuclear diffraction hypothesis". Personally, I I thought it was quite interesting, so I changed it and wrote it down. Wrong theories will be corrected by the protagonist later.
