At noon, Harrov, who received the [Delayed Selection, Optoelectronic Double Slit Interference Experiment] report in the Wizards' Council, couldn't help but frowned, and then shook his head in confusion.
"I think Jeffrey is joking. They actually said in the experimental report that photons and electrons can predict the future, predict in advance whether they will conduct observations, and make a choice when passing through the double slit, deciding whether to use particles or probability waves. form through single or multiple slits..."
This is a bit too funny.
It is simply as outrageous as the assumption of constant speed of light proposed by Lynn in his theory of relativity.
"I think he didn't mean to be joking..." Vittorio's expression was very solemn and he explained in a deep voice. "According to the information I received, nine of the fifteen great wizards who participated in this experiment went crazy on the spot!"
The smile on Harrov's face immediately froze, and he stared at Vittorio for a while before confirming that the other party did not mean to tease him.
Even Aurora and Anthony, who were reading the theory of relativity, were shocked. Although there were not a few wizards who went crazy recently due to studying microscopic phenomena, nine at a time was too exaggerated.
"Have you replicated their delayed selection experiment? Is it possible that, as mentioned above, photons and electrons can predict in advance whether the observation will occur, or even reverse the cause and effect?" Harrov said in surprise. This is really true. It's so amazing that it's hard to believe.
"There are no replicas, but when I was treating the great wizards, I probed their memories. If this memory was not modified in advance, then what was said in the report should be true. The microscopic particles are probably true. He has some ability to predict in advance." Vittorio's frown never relaxed.
Because from those memories, he had seen dozens of improved versions of the double-slit interference experiment. Jeffrey and others had done almost all the verification methods they could think of, and the results were surprisingly consistent.
Arad even thought of a very clever way to record the entire experimental process, and then decide whether to observe it after completion. However, the electrons and photons used for testing can still react in advance and produce probability wave collapse. This It can only be described as terrifying.
Vittorio shook his head and then reported the good news. "I have deleted the relevant memories of these nine people and are currently receiving mental treatment. There should be no life-threatening danger. I just lost the ability to use light and thunder magic."
"That's good!" Aurora breathed a sigh of relief. There were only a hundred or so wizards in the entire council. The loss of nine people at a time was absolutely unacceptable.
Harrov was still thinking about the predictive properties of photons and electrons. Just as he was about to continue discussing this topic with Vittorio, he received a report from his attendants. All the great wizards who were still in the capital gathered in the forest. There was a quarrel in front of Speaker En's residence.
"We'd better go take a look!" Vittorio suggested. If anyone can answer this question, it's probably Lynn who proposed the theory of relativity.
…
At the same time, a large group of wizards were arguing with each other in front of a luxurious manor. They were discussing the four formulas and two basic definitions of the theory of relativity, as well as questioning the delayed selection experiment.
"I have already said that according to experiments, photons and electrons can accurately predict the future, and they can detect it. I even doubt..." At this point, Jeffrey's face showed a look of fear, with a hint of fear. Said with a little trembling. "They can read our thoughts and memories!"
Arad on the side also said with a crazy expression. "Yes, photons and electrons exist everywhere, and they must communicate with each other. Only in this way can we explain why they can accurately learn our observation plan every time."
All the wizards present looked strange. Why is this getting more and more outrageous? Isn't it the quantum ghost?
"You don't want to say that so-called quantum ghosts really exist, do you? And aren't all microscopic elements ghosts?" The great wizard named Steger looked at Jeriff and others and said with a sneer. "I remember Speaker Lin En has explained this issue a long time ago. Microscopic particles have no consciousness at all..."
"I am more reluctant than anyone else to believe that this is a fact, but we have thought of more than 130 methods and tried all the experiments within our capabilities. That is the fact!" Arad! He cursed extremely irritably. "This bitch, the Elemental Ghost, can not only read our memories, but also predict the future!"
Sanchez also helped out, detailing the progress and results of every experiment they had done.
The expressions of the great wizards who were just looking at the joke and found this conclusion extremely ridiculous gradually changed from ridicule to solemnity and then to contemplation. Finally, many of them had the idea of conducting experiments and tests immediately.
If Sanchez and others weren't lying, that would be amazing!
"Perhaps quantum ghosts really exist. Although Speaker Lin En is a magic star, no one is absolutely correct. Don't forget that the star-like element model proposed by Speaker Lin En has been proven wrong, even if It sounds very reasonable!" Sanchez sighed.
Steger, who had previously laughed at Jeffrey, was silent for a while, and then nodded.
"That's right. The development of magic and the improvement of theory cannot be achieved overnight. It can never be fully affirmed because of the authority of the proposer. Just like the assumption of constant speed of light mentioned by Speaker Lynn in the theory of relativity, I think that is simply not true. It’s illogical and I can think of over a thousand ways to refute it!”
The wizards present also nodded. They gathered here today to ask this question to the magic star.
However, the moment Steger finished speaking, another voice rang out from the manor.
"Oh, really? I don't know what methods there are? I'd like to hear it!"
The originally confident Steger's confident expression changed instantly, and he immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the manor.
The person who came was naturally Lin En, followed closely by a giant beast over three meters tall. It was Muto who stood in front of the gate just now, blocking everyone out.
The great wizards present all came here to refute the theory of relativity, but when they actually saw Lin En, they gave up and began to wonder if there was something wrong with their own theory.
In the past, there were not a few people who thought they had found theoretical flaws and could refute this magic star and become famous.
After all, everyone knows that Speaker Lin En has no scruples in discussing magic. He has even said bluntly on many occasions that anyone is welcome to use rigorous theories and exquisite experimental results to prove that his theory is wrong!
It's just that no one has succeeded so far, but countless people have been slapped in the face.
Even for the only star-like element orbit model that was proven to be wrong, it was Lin who found a more appropriate quantum probability cloud theory on his own - in fact, there are still many wizards who firmly believe that the star-like element orbit model is the only one that is It's the truth, because it's so perfect.
Although he had a lot of considerations in his heart, after all, he had already come, and it was not good to go back, so Steger bit the bullet and said. "Speaker Lynn, I have many questions about your latest book, The Theory of Relativity, published today that I would like you to answer!"
"Since we are discussing academic issues, let's come in and talk about it!" Linn didn't mean to embarrass Steger. Before publishing the theory of relativity, he had already expected that it would inevitably cause an uproar in the academic world.
After all, various phenomena in the microscopic realm are indeed somewhat difficult to understand from a macroscopic perspective.
Steger was relieved and stepped into the manor with Jeffrey, Sanchez and others.
Lin En led everyone to the optical laboratory. Steger looked around the room. There were many unnamed magical instruments placed here, which looked very sophisticated.
"If you have any questions, just ask them here. It's best to ask them one by one. Why don't we start with the principle of relativity first!" Lin En said directly.
The wizards present looked at each other, and then Steger spoke first. "I saw you said in your paper that all inertial reference systems are equal, and no one is more special than the other. So now that I am running towards you, it can also be interpreted as you running towards me, right? ?”
The equality of the reference system of the principle of relativity was the first question that puzzled him.
"No, before I understand this concept, I need to explain what an inertial reference system is!" Linn shook his head and said. "It means that an object remains relatively stationary or moves at a constant speed along a specific route. It will continue to move at its current speed without being changed by external forces."
"For example, for everyone who is standing still, the interior of this planet can be used as an inertial reference system." At this point, Linn took out a silver coin and threw it out quickly. "If I am used as the frame of reference, it can be said that this silver coin is moving forward at a speed of fifty meters per second!"
"What's the significance of this? Isn't its speed and direction the same regardless of whether it is from the perspective of the inertial reference frame?" A great wizard said in surprise.
"No, if there is no such reference system, then we can definitely say that the speed of this silver coin is thirty kilometers per second!" Linn shrugged and said with a smile.
Steger and others were stunned for a moment, then looked at the silver coin nailed to the wall, frowning and thinking.
A great wizard who had studied astronomy quickly responded. "This is the speed of the Eternal Star around the Sun!"
Because they are inside the Eternal Star, if the sun is used as the reference system, they are moving around the sun at a speed of thirty kilometers per second.
"But, this doesn't seem right, does it?" Steger said in a deep voice. "That's the Eternal Star in motion. The speed of this silver coin is still fifty meters per second."
Lynn asked rhetorically. "Suppose you are sitting on a high-speed train. You are not moving, but people outside the station still seem to be moving away from them at high speed."
Steger suddenly choked up and couldn't speak for a long time.
Lin En continued to explain. “Without an inertial reference frame, it makes no sense to distinguish up, down, left, right, east, west, and south. For example, within the Eternal Star, for people in the northern hemisphere, the north is up, while for people in the southern hemisphere, the south is Above!"
"The reason why we can clearly distinguish the direction now is because gravity is pulling us to fall on the ground. With the center of the earth as the bottom, other directions can naturally be distinguished!"
In just a few words, Lin En explained clearly the necessity of the existence of the inertial reference system and why reference systems have equal rights. The people present were all great wizards, so it was naturally not difficult to understand.
But what follows is the second question.
"Speaker Lynn, I already understand what you mean, but please forgive me, your theory of the constant speed of light seems to conflict with the concept of equal rights in reference systems." Steger said again.
"Suppose we release laser magic inside the Eternal Star, shouldn't the speed of light from the perspective of the star be the speed of revolution plus the speed of light?"
The example given by Steger is the same as the silver coin thrown by Lynn, and it is precisely using Lynn's own words as a refutation.
Of course, Lin En couldn't be refuted by this small problem, and smiled calmly. "How do you think waves travel? What are the factors that affect its speed?"
Steger frowned when he saw Linn suddenly changing the topic, but he still answered. "The transmission of waves naturally depends on the medium. As for the speed of its propagation..."
"The propagation speed of mechanical waves only depends on the medium and is not affected by other factors!" Linn explained. "For example, sound is a mechanical wave!"
"Its propagation speed is 340 meters per second under normal temperature and atmospheric pressure. Its speed will not become faster just because you run and shout! One example is when using thunder magic, the sound It may even arrive after lightning because it travels much slower than lightning and is not affected by external forces."
"So no matter what state you are in, as long as the medium does not change, measuring the mechanical wave with an instrument at any orientation or angle within the inertial reference system must be a certain and unchanging value!"
Jerryf suddenly felt his eyes light up and spoke excitedly. "Light is also a kind of wave, a relatively special electromagnetic wave that also has certain wave characteristics, so measuring its speed is actually measuring its propagation rate in a certain medium!"
Lin En smiled and nodded. After understanding this, he already understood half of the mystery of the constant speed of light, although the remaining half is the most difficult to understand!
