When he received Bohr's letter, Chen Muwu had already written down the third equation besides the Klein-Gordon equation, the Dirac equation.
He put the printed paper into an envelope again and sent it to Max Planck in Berlin, Germany.
Although it was not stated explicitly, the relationship between Chen Muwu and the "Annals of Physics" has been ambiguous since he received Planck's sincere letter requesting manuscripts in the Eagle Bar last summer.
As long as Chen Muwu's paper is received, the editorial department will always arrange for manpower to publish the paper in the latest issue of the journal as soon as possible.
This concludes the questions about wave mechanics and equations.
During the past few days when Chen Muwu was writing his thesis, Oppenheimer, who had been hanging around in his office, was not in a fragile mood and felt left out.
Instead, he read his teacher's papers and read them with great interest.
For Oppenheimer, a newcomer who chose to study in the Department of Chemistry when he entered college and did not turn to physics until he graduated from undergraduate, he did not have any baggage in his mind about whether electrons are particles or waves.
He would only think that the wave equation of unknown meaning proposed by Chen Muwu was very convenient and quick for calculating the spectrum of hydrogen atoms.
In order to win the favor of his teacher, Oppenheimer even thought that after entering the Cavendish Laboratory, the first thing he should do was to seriously learn the mathematical tools such as matrices by himself.
But now Teacher Chen's wave equation has helped him invisibly, so that he no longer has to learn that somewhat fatal square box.
In addition, Oppenheimer once volunteered to help Chen Muwu "write" the paper.
Of course, this writing was not dictated by Chen Muwu like Bohr did with Kramers and Heisenberg, while Oppenheimer recorded everything in detail.
He actually wanted to help his teacher convert the drafts written on paper into type on the typewriter.
In Oppenheimer's subconscious, he still carries the thoughts of an American wealthy young man.
For blue-collar workers on the factory assembly line, marrying a well-dressed typist girl is definitely one of the luckiest things in life.
But for Oppenheimer, a second-generation Jewish rich man, typist was just a humble and low-class profession. He would never read on the sofa while his teacher sat at the table and typed on the typewriter. reason.
That's why he volunteered to make this request, wanting to help his teacher share some work.
As a result, Chen Muwu rejected the young man's proposal without hesitation. Not to mention that he was one of the fastest typing people in the world. If Oppenheimer, who couldn't do anything well, came into contact with this typewriter, he would definitely produce a paper that could be called a disaster.
…
Chen Muwu, who received Bohr's letter, did not feel much excitement in his heart.
If Bohr had invited him to Denmark when he first traveled through time, Chen Muwu might have been very excited.
Although the goalkeeper's attitude towards students and newcomers was very unfriendly, at least for Chen Muwu at that time, Bohr's invitation could be regarded as a life-saving straw.
But now...
Not only did he have no reaction, he didn't even want to leave Cambridge and made a special trip to the small Nordic island that could only be reached by boat.
However, Chen Muwu still took this letter to Rutherford's office.
Excluding the last Solvay Conference, this letter from Bohr was the first invitation for an academic visit that Chen Muwu received.
Nominally, he was going to ask Rutherford if he could refuse Bohr's invitation.
But in fact, Chen Muwu also wanted to show off to his teacher.
You see, my theoretical research is not useless! Even your favorite student, Bohr, invited me to study there!
Unexpectedly, after reading the invitation letter written by Bohr to Chen Muwu, Rutherford raised his head expressionlessly.
He said with great certainty: "Chen, I think you won't go. You are just here to show off with this letter, right?"
Come on, is this little thought of mine so obvious?
His expression was obviously restrained and serious, but his teacher saw through this?
"Yes, it is somewhat interesting, teacher. I still have to stay in the Cavendish Laboratory to make electron microscopes. If nothing else happens, I won't be going anywhere in the near future."
"Chen, I'm afraid this is not your true thought," Rutherford said with a smile. "I think the reason why you won't go north to Denmark is not because of this electron microscope that you have delayed for a long time. But you want to stay in Cambridge and wait for your two compatriots from China, right?"
Rutherford's eyes were indeed vicious, and with one sentence, he directly revealed what Chen Muwu was thinking deep in his heart.
It seems that there is still more than a month left before the start of the new semester at Cambridge University.
It has been a long time since I received the letter from Ye Qisun. Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei should be on their way to England, right?
Since they were all invited by him, Chen Muwu had no reason to leave Cambridge and go to Denmark at this time.
Chen Muwu smiled sheepishly: "Teacher, you really got it right. I will go back to the laboratory to do experiments..."
"There's no rush then, Chen. Sit down and let's chat for a while."
Since Chen Muwu himself came to the door this time, Rutherford should also seize this opportunity to have a good chat with his beloved disciple.
"Don't be sorry that you couldn't go to Denmark this time. I think it won't take long, maybe at the end of this year, and you will definitely go to Northern Europe."
Rutherford still didn't make it clear, but both master and apprentice understood it tacitly.
At the end of the year, what else can I do if I go to Northern Europe, other than to receive the Nobel Prize?
Although there has been no movement from the jury, in Rutherford's mind, Chen Muwu should be the perfect candidate for this year's Nobel Prize in Physics.
Besides Chen Muwu, who else can win this award?
According to past practice, people from each country who are eligible to nominate will basically nominate their own people for the Nobel Prize.
If Chen Muwu hadn't been born in the past two years, then this year British scientists led by his teacher Sir Thomson would have nominated Wilson, the British professor who invented the cloud chamber in the Cavendish Laboratory.
If the Germans add Bohr to the list, they will most likely nominate Frank and Hertz, two Germans who experimentally proved the existence of atomic energy levels.
As for the Frenchman, if nothing else happens, it will probably be Jean Perrin who measured Avogadro's constant through Brownian motion.
But all this changed because of the arrival of a talented student in the Cavendish Laboratory.
Even if "when today's articles are important, there is no need to talk about the Han and Tang Dynasties", let alone the various weird but seemingly correct theories put forward by Chen Muwu, just talk about the few experiments he conducted after coming to England, and pick one of them at random. They are all award-winning.
If it were another physicist, it would probably take him most of his academic career, and there is no telling whether he would be lucky enough to achieve one of these results in the end.
Chen Muwu has not only achieved many achievements, but also has a good reputation among physicists in Germany and France.
Needless to say, Planck and Einstein, Chen Muwu was able to come to Europe from distant China, and his paper was published in a top European journal for the first time. These two people have a lot of credit.
And because he connected with the little nobleman de Broglie, Chen Muwu also maintained a good relationship with French physicists.
However, the neurotic Rutherford didn't pay much attention to the emotional lives of his students, so he didn't know that besides de Broglie, there was now another line between Chen Muwu and France. .
"The right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people." That's why Rutherford wrote to his physics colleagues in Germany and France, asking them to nominate Chen Muwu for this year's Nobel Prize in Physics.
In their replies to Rutherford, the vast majority of people also expressed their willingness to give face to the Cavendish Laboratory, Rutherford and Chen Muwu.
"Thank you teacher for your cultivation."
Chen Muwu himself was deeply moved to see Rutherford being so considerate to him.
"Once a teacher, always a father." He thought that in his lifetime, he would do whatever it takes to help this bearded old New Zealand man realize his wish and make him the second or third person after Marie Curie. Someone who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and the Nobel Prize in Physics.
"Chen, why are you so polite!" Rutherford suddenly changed the subject and mentioned his student Oppenheimer, "This is your first time teaching students, and it's been a while, how do you feel?"
"It's no different. Mr. Oppenheimer is also a person of similar age to me. I only regard him as a friend of the same age."
Rutherford had a different view on this: "You still have to take care of that young man from the United States. There have never been Americans in the Cavendish Laboratory before, like Mr. Compton of the University of Chicago. Each of them is very humble, and they are by no means as arrogant as you, a student. If you can take them, continue to take them for a while. If you can't take them, bring them up quickly, and I will have someone arrange another one for him. place.
"There's another thing, the theory you proposed..."
Chen Muwu thought that his teacher was going to tell him again, telling him not to focus his work and study on the "useless" theoretical physics, but to return to the embrace of experimental physics as soon as possible.
Fortunately, he has now finished writing a phased paper, so there is nothing wrong with stopping here and taking a break for a while.
So before Rutherford could finish speaking, Chen Muwu quickly expressed his attitude: "Teacher, I will never do any more useless theoretical physics in the near future!"
"Chen, I didn't mean that."
Chen Muwu felt as if he was hallucinating. Could such words be said by his teacher?
Rutherford continued: "Although you won't be able to go to Denmark for a while, you can find time recently, either in the Cavendish Laboratory or in a classroom at Trinity College, and tell us about you. In quantum mechanics, let’s talk about what a matrix is and what a wave equation is.”
Rutherford really didn't speak upright. On the surface, he scorned the rhetorical theories, but his keen scientific literacy made him realize that the new mechanics of the microscopic world proposed by Chen Muwu may very well change the research direction of future physics. .
"Okay, teacher."
Before leaving the office, Chen Muwu also nodded and agreed to Rutherford's request.
Because most of the people in the Cavendish Laboratory are still enjoying their long vacations in various places.
So a few days after leaving Rutherford's office, Chadwick, the deputy of the Cavendish Laboratory, came to inform Chen Muwu that in order to wait for other personnel in the laboratory, the director asked him to send his quantum field Mechanics lectures are scheduled to be held half a month before the official start of school.
But Chen Muwu still talked about quantum mechanics in advance in another lecture at Cambridge University.
With one person fully fed and the whole family not hungry, Kapitsa went to the United States for vacation this summer.
As soon as he returned to Cambridge, he met Chen Muwu, who was his neighbor again, in the corridor of Trinity College. Kapitsa couldn't wait to give the latter a big bear hug: "Chen, you are really amazing. I was visiting the United States." During that time, there was news about you in the newspapers every day.
"I knew you would definitely come back with a gold medal. Take me to see what those gold medals look like!"
After taking the over-enthusiastic Russian back to his room and showing him the four Olympic gold medals he had hung on the wall, Chen Muwu thought that this sudden visitor would end his whim interruption and return. Go to your room to wash up and rest.
After all, Kapitsa had just experienced a seven-day boat journey across the Atlantic. After disembarking in Southampton, he changed trains there without stopping and rushed back to Cambridge.
After nearly ten days of hard work, he should have taken a good rest.
However, Kapitsa was still sitting on the sofa and had no intention of leaving Chen Muwu's room.
"Chen, I heard that you have created several killer weapons in the physics of the microscopic world? I also visited several universities in the United States during this period, and the physics professors there were very concerned about the one you created. There are a lot of complaints about the 'matrix' thing, and they are all upset by this matrix."
"Peter, this is indeed the case."
"Well, we will organize an impromptu Kapitsa Club event next Tuesday. At the meeting, you will tell us all about your quantum mechanics."
Only then did Chen Muwu understand the real reason why Kapitsa came to see him.
Watching the gold medal is just a gimmick. He wants to quickly understand what quantum mechanics is, which is the ultimate goal of this trip.
Kapitsa's original intention when he founded this club was to save a lot of boring time reading documents, and through this academic exchange activity, he could quickly understand the latest academic trends within a period of time.
Unexpectedly, this time, he would stretch out his wool-picking hands to his body.
Chen Muwu did not refuse his request, so he treated it as preparation for Rutherford's lecture and held a small club event in advance to test the waters.
He also wanted to see what his true teaching level was.
…
Before the weekly activities of the Kapitha Club began, Chen Muwu finally welcomed the two guests from China.
Also coming to Cambridge University with Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei was a staff member of the Embassy of the Republic of China in Britain.
Chen Muwu thought the two had encountered some trouble in the UK, so he asked the embassy to send them over.
As a result, after carefully understanding the ins and outs of the matter, he was really dumbfounded.
After dozens of days of long-distance travel, the two of them arrived in the UK. Just like Chen Muwu did when he first came to the UK last year, the first stop was to report to the Embassy in London on Portland Street.
For new international students like them who have just arrived in the UK and have not yet decided which school they will eventually choose to attend, the embassy is obliged and is very happy to provide help.
Because they were all newcomers to the UK for the first time, they were completely blind to the unfamiliar environment in front of them. They came overseas alone and had no friends.
Just make up a reasonable excuse, and you can easily take a huge amount of money from them.
In addition to the funds allocated by the domestic Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the beginning of each year, and the occasional profit from the reselling of cultural relics, these funds are the main source of income for the embassy.
So they ignored the fact that Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei were very plainly dressed and did not look like the young masters from wealthy families at all. Instead, they had to be more cautious when facing the young masters because they were probably powerful officials in the country. , or the children of warlords with military power - after registering their names, place of origin and other personal information in a formal place, they began their performance.
"When you two came to the UK this time, did you have any favorite schools?"
"We're going to Cambridge University."
The two gentlemen answered honestly.
"Oh...Cambridge University, that's one of the top universities in the UK. It's amazing how ambitious you are!
"Is it just Cambridge University? Because it is so famous, its admission threshold has also increased.
"Brother, I have worked in the embassy for so many years, but I have not seen many compatriots who can finally enter the University of Cambridge.
"However, it is a good time for you two to come to the UK this time. I wonder if you have heard of it in China. Now in the world of physics, our country has an amazing compatriot named Chen Hanchen? He... "
The staff did not give Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei a chance to interrupt. He changed the subject and began to exaggerate and brag about Chen Muwu's achievements in physics.
But because he didn't understand physics himself and only learned about it briefly through the news in the newspaper, there were many professional errors in his words.
"...Not only that, you have been on the ship with no information during this period. What you may not know is that Chen Hanchen has not only made extraordinary achievements in physics and astronomy, but also participated in the Universal Games held in Paris, France. Won four gold medals in one go. Not only did we win glory for our country, but we also gained a lot of fame in the UK.
"Coincidentally, Mr. Chen Hanchen is a graduate of the two Cambridge universities he wants to enter, and he has just obtained the position of professor this summer. If he wants to arrange for students to study at Cambridge University, it is simply a piece of cake. The upper lip touches the lower lip, which is a matter of a few words.
"What's even more coincidental is that Mr. Chen Hanchen and my younger brother are very good personal trainers. If you two are interested, my younger brother and I can help match them. Is it just for the cost..."
After talking for so long, the staff member finally shut up.
But he stretched out his clenched right hand towards Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei, rubbing his thumb and index finger constantly, making a rubbing sound.
The meaning of this body language is very obvious, that is, if you want to connect with Chen Muwu and get into Cambridge University, you have to give him money first.
After watching this poor performance, the two of them could no longer control themselves and burst out laughing in unison, holding their bellies in their hands.
Although they had just arrived, it did not mean that they had no life experience. The two of them had long seen that the staff of this legation was completely pretending to be powerful, and by chance, they happened to bump into their guns.
Seeing this situation, the staff thought that their performance had been seen through, so they wanted to use their power to threaten these two ungrateful country people.
"If you don't have money, just say you don't have money. Why are you laughing? Do you believe it? Not only can I prevent you from going to Cambridge, I can even ask the Minister to come forward and deport you two back to your country!"
His words had no effect at all. After laughing for a while, Shi Ruwei finally told the unlucky guy the truth about the matter.
"Sir, I want to correct you a mistake. As a staff member of the embassy, you should know better than me. The current minister to the UK is still Gu Shaochuan who remains in the country. There is only a charge d'affaires in the UK and there is no minister. .
"In addition, the reason why the two of us came to the UK all the way from China and wanted to study at Cambridge University was entirely because we were invited by Mr. Chen Hanchen, who you just said you have a good personal relationship with."
Shi Ruwei also waved the letter Chen Muwu wrote to Ye Qisun in front of this person: "If you don't believe it, you can give this letter to your close friend Mr. Chen Hanchen and ask him if he is really like this. Same thing."
After hearing this, the staff turned pale with fright.
Originally, not many of these international students chose to enter Cambridge University, but today I finally met two. He also planned to use Chen Muwu's name and make a fortune.
Unexpectedly, these two people were invited by Chen Muwu to study in Cambridge.
He was in serious trouble now. In order to make up for his mistake, the staff member directly skipped work, took the two people to the station, and sent them to Cambridge in person.
He talked all the way, trying to use his actual performance to gain the forgiveness of the two of them, so that they could say a few nice words for him in front of Chen Muwu, so that he would not lose his job due to greed at this moment. After all, Chen Muwu was now the temporary charge d'affaires Zhu Zhaoxin. In front of me, a first-rate celebrity.
I want to increase the average order a little bit, but there are still dozens of orders to reach 2,000, so today is the first update, but it is still the same as yesterday, 6,000+.
Please bear with me and thank you!
