Throne of Magical Arcana

"Don't prescribe what the reality of the world should be?"

Following Lucien's loud words, Douglas, Fernando, Brooke and the others fell silent for a short while. Indeed, I think the reality of the world should not be dice, but that doesn't mean it really isn't. It's just my own opinion, deduced from various natural phenomena came to think.

After more than ten seconds, Douglas sighed: "I will use experiments to prove that the reality of the world is not a dice. In fact, have you ever thought that the so-called probability cloud does not exist at all, and what the wave function represents only conforms to this The electron group with this probability is not a single electron, and their own trajectories are not everywhere, but have a fixed line, which is closely related to this probability distribution, but we cannot observe and confirm it for the time being, so they pass through the single crystal. in a haphazard state until the overall probability emerges."

Regardless of whether he is willing to admit Lucien's interpretation of probability and the principle of uncertainty, he has reflected on himself. He should not replace the real nature of the world with what he thinks is true, and then refute it from this perspective, but should start from Lucien. It is a good arcane attitude to use the contradictions of En's theory itself and rigorous experimental results to prove mistakes.

Therefore, he put forward his own opinion based on the impression after a rough reading of the paper.

The disappearance of the "real secret realm" led to the disappearance of other visions. Lucien also restrained the "atomic universe" and replied seriously: "Your Excellency, don't talk about the contradiction between your conjecture and many derivations. As long as we complete the electronic Double-slit interference experiments can verify whether it is correct or not."

"If an electron has its own trajectory like a real particle before observation, it can only pass through one gap at a time and cannot be separated. Whether the interference fringes can appear and the final pattern look are related to the distance between the two gaps. So if the electron double-slit interference experiment can really be established, how does the electron know the distance between the slit it passes through and the other slit, so that it strictly requires itself to fall in a certain area instead of another area?"

This is like a maze. At the entrance, there are seven channels of different colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. At the exit, there is only the correct path of blue. For the "wave" that can extend in space, it is equivalent to simultaneous After opening the entrance and exit, it is natural to know that blue is the correct path, but a particle with a fixed trajectory, that is, a "person", cannot know the state of the exit at the same time after opening the entrance, how can it strictly follow the correct path every time? the way, instead of another passage?

For Douglas, Brook and other legendary magicians, the double-slit interference experiment was the core area of ​​the previous wave-particle war. This experiment can fully explain whether electrons are really everywhere before observation, just like weird ghosts.

Lucien continued: "Actually, there are still many interesting verifications in this experiment. If double-slit interference fringes really appear, then we close one of the slits when electrons pass through the other. You say it will remain Go to the sensing screen according to the path of interference, or immediately 'know' that the other gap is closed, so change your state and go to the path of diffraction?"

For Douglas, Fernando, and Hathaway, who are more inclined to particle theory, such thought experiments push the weirdness of electrons to a more shocking place. If an electron changes state, it either means it is a real wave, There is no particle, so it passes through two gaps at the same time, or you can only believe in Lucien's description, it is a probability wave, permeating the space, everywhere, or another even more incredible possibility, electrons are wisdom Life has its own consciousness and ability, so it can "sense and know" the situation of the gap on the other side, so as to adjust itself.

Although the latter may be very suitable for the situation of the magical world, it is contradictory to the existence of human beings. The basis of the material has its own consciousness. Doesn't it mean that every human body has countless consciousnesses that do not belong to itself?

Seeing His Excellency the Speaker and the teacher thinking silently, Lucien slightly nodded and said: "I know that the gap required for electronic double-slit interference is very narrow, which cannot be achieved by the current magic experiment conditions, but I also know that many legendary magics are The application is ahead of the theory, I believe that after several years of improvement, Mr. Speaker, you will complete similar magic circles, alchemy devices or legendary magic, and everything will be clear by then."

At this time, Oliver looked at Lucien seriously, and he no longer looked like a playboy: "Even if the electron can complete the double-slit interference, it doesn't mean that your probability wave is correct, it just further proves my idea, the electron It is a real wave, which only exhibits particle properties in the form of wave packets in special states."

Lucien smiled and said, "Oliver, your idea is contradictory to many current experimental results. Those random light spots are the best evidence, and your interpretation even appeared in your paper on solving the atomic structure model. I believe that someone has already pointed out this point, the particle nature of electrons cannot be doubted, and the experimental results of mass, charge, momentum, etc. have all confirmed it beyond doubt.”

"Having a problem doesn't mean it can't be improved, at least it's more reliable than your probability interpretation, it's like a lunatic talking in his sleep." Oliver expressed his abhorrence of probability interpretation, "I will try to prove its fallacy!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left. He needed a quiet environment to think about the loopholes in Lucien's three papers, which could be a fatal loophole.

Seeing Oliver leave, Douglas looked at Lucien seriously: "I will try the electron double-slit interference experiment, and I will design more thought experiments to demonstrate."

The so-called thought experiment is an experiment in imagination, which excludes the influence of any environment and other factors, and excludes the limitations of experimental conditions. It is purely theoretical to explore whether this experiment can be completed under perfect conditions, so as to prove the error or possibility. It is a common method used by arcanists.

Brook also nodded slightly: "Everything is based on the results of the experiment."

"I believe that a large number of current experimental results conform to your probability interpretation, but I also believe in your interpretation. Your quantum mechanics is incomplete and ignores many things." Douglas said kindly but firmly, and then discussed with Brooke and Wesson. Te left together, leaving only Fernando, Hathaway and the dazed Helen in place.

Fernando's red eyes still stared at Lucien, and Lucien also looked at him without fear. After a long time, he waved his hand: "I need to be quiet, and I need to think about how to verify your probability. The interpretation is wrong."

This is a subversion of the entire arcane and magic system. Even if he is as enlightened as he is and loves students like him, he has to stand on the side of the truth in his heart. This is the glorious belief accumulated over the years from the Magic Empire to the Magic Council. !

Lucien nodded slightly, sighed, and left Fernando's study together with Hathaway and Helen.

Hathaway roughly regained her composure, thought for a while and said, "Electrons in the form of probability clouds are more difficult to accept than waves, but if all the results are strictly pointing to it, then no matter how difficult it is to accept, we have to accept it. will be diverted, but at least so far, it has not been able to convince us strongly."

She also expressed her opposition, but she was not as fierce and determined as great arcanists such as Douglas of the astrologer, Brook and Oliver of the electromagnetic system.

This is not because her arcane attitude is better, nor is she more open-minded, it is just that her field of expertise is elements, atoms, microcosms, particles, and new alchemy!

Helen recovered from her daze, and looked at Lucien in a daze: "In the report you submitted, the condition of the Immortal Tunnel is very similar to the statement of the probability cloud. Where did you get the inspiration from? Microscopic particles How can the quantum state appear in the macroscopic world? Is this the secret of immortality? The real secret is not in the chamber of immortality, but in the tunnel of immortality?"

As expected, she was half a student of Douglas, and she asked why instinctively, and she, who was not involved in the debate, could rationally think of the report on the Immortal Corridor submitted by Lucien.

"It is indeed this that inspired me, but it is more based on the results of a large number of experiments. As for why the immortal corridor makes microscopic weirdness appear in the macroscopic, that is a question that needs to be studied by us. Maybe it really contains the secret of immortality .” When Lucien proposed the probability interpretation, he guessed that others would think of it, so he generously “admitted”.

With the endorsement of "Immortal Corridor", Helen showed a thoughtful expression, and Hathaway also stroked her chin quietly.

"I will design experiments to demonstrate the validity of the probability interpretation and the uncertainty principle." Helen said truthfully, "Immortal Corridor" is like this, but it doesn't mean that electrons must be like this, maybe it symbolizes other aspects?

However, her tone is therefore more neutral than that of Brooke, Oliver, Vicente and others.

…………

Since the interpretation of probability and the principle of uncertainty have not yet been strongly proved, Lucien naturally does not need to create an atmosphere of discussion to let the arcanists slowly accept it as before, and directly synthesize the three papers into "Quantum Mechanics and New Alchemy" Fundamentals" was submitted to the Arcane Review Committee.

The papers were undoubtedly handed over to the committee members of the elemental field, and as a newly promoted committee member, Larry saw them in his home.

"His Excellency Evans' thesis?" Such a thesis would definitely not be reviewed by students and journal arcanists. Larry looked through it expectantly.

Looking at it, the expression on his round bearded face completely froze, as if the most terrifying and amazing monster in front of him was about to break free and devour the entire arcane system!

"How can this be... This explanation is too ridiculous..." Larry muttered to himself, but he quickly recalled the large number of results of his experiments, and said with a slight frown, "Perhaps, this explanation is not impossible. There must be other factors in the macroscopic world that make probability disappear, at least the world we live in is real, objective, and material.”

He really grew up in the wave brought by the new alchemy in the past few years, so he has a heartfelt identification with the new alchemy and the strangeness of microscopic particles, and the influence of past experiences and theories also affects him. Much less, I am not so repulsive to this kind of ridiculous theoretical explanation, especially it is consistent with a large number of experimental results and can solve many problems.

There is a little delay, I am a little late, sorry PS: Thank you, Ms. Fydia, for being the leader~PS2: A friend gave me a good opinion before, using "regulation" is better than "forced", so I revised the last sentence of the previous chapter talk.
