Chapter 53 Brooke's Expectation

"Thunder Hell", Fernando's Magic Tower.!

As long as he was still in Arlinge and not disturbed by other things, Lucien maintained the habit of communicating with the teacher about arcana and magic once a week. But today when he entered the teacher's study, he unexpectedly saw someone wearing

Brooke, an old-school gentleman in a white hairband.

Don't they always "like" face-to-face communication with teachers, preferring to use letters? Lucien thought to himself.

Brooke didn't wait for Lucien to say hello, held his gold-rimmed eyes, and said with a smile: "In recent days, your paper on the roots of magic has caused quite a stir in Arlinge, and I also got a lot of inspiration from it.

Congratulations, the first formal model of the nature of magic."

Fernando next to him muttered: "'The observer effect is not a good thing, it will make the world unreal..."

Lucien smiled. His insistence on the reality of the world made it difficult for the teacher to have a good impression of the "observer effect", especially since this explanation did not have any strong evidence or rigorous derivation. It was just a great arcane magician.

The teacher’s frightening “prophecy” came out of nowhere.

"Thank you. To be honest, I have just begun to explore this aspect myself. There are still many things worth discussing in this paper. The same is true for the vacuum sea in a negative energy state." Lucien said very sincerely. He believed in the teacher.

He could see it as well as Mr. Brooke, and then he deliberately changed the subject, "Teacher, Mr. Brooke, what are you discussing?"

It is of course best not to face the teacher's roar if you can.

"I was very inspired by your idea of ​​quantizing the electromagnetic field when you were studying spontaneous emission problems. In addition, Annick and Splinter's similar treatments of electronic problems have shown impressive value, so I want to learn from you.

Starting from the idea of ​​second quantization, we thoroughly introduce quantum theory into the classical electromagnetic field theory and construct a quantum field theory, in order to deeply explore electrons and photons and study the essential issues of electromagnetic force."

When talking about the nature of electromagnetic force, Brooke's slightly thin, half-aged face seemed to light up with a radiance. This was because he had unknowingly interfered with the real world.

When discussing research in the microscopic field, he carefully used photons instead of electromagnetic waves. It is obvious that he has accepted the wave-particle duality of light to a great extent, and not only has no understanding of the theory that caused the fragmentation and solidification of his cognitive world.

Complete rejection but a strong desire for research.

Fernando, whose hair always seems a little messy, said angrily: "Then he dragged me to study together and solve the problems, completely ignoring that I was studying the reasons for the runaway fission reactor and the preliminary theory of weak interaction..."

The "weak interaction force" was named by Fernando in reference to the nuclear force proposed by Lucien and Hathaway - the "strong interaction force".

He looked unwilling, but his bright red eyes were bright and lively, which made Lucien smile secretly. Teacher, if you don't want to, no one can or dare to force you to study issues related to quantum field theory. But look

It sounds like you are completely enjoying it and are full of enthusiasm and motivation to build such a system.

Of course, Lucien is very aware that starting from "second quantization", the establishment of quantum field theory will definitely go through a long and tortuous process, because at present, there are unavoidable major problems in calculations - caused by divergence

There are an infinite number of problems, which requires slowly exploring new mathematical methods to solve, and this is only one of the more obvious difficulties.

"After this period of research, we have initially established a quantum field theory in a general sense, but it has so many flaws that we are ready to publish it in advance so that more people can discuss it," Brooke said happily and thoughtfully.

Lucien's answer was exactly what he expected, "I just happened to meet you and we had some issues to discuss."

He extended the invitation without ceremony.

Fernando, who never concealed his emotions, his expression fell slightly, and he cursed in a low voice: "Damn infinity!"

Lucien did not refuse. He was always willing to participate in similar arcane discussions, which would help him truly and thoroughly transform the knowledge in the Soul Library into the knowledge he mastered.

Taking their drafts, Lucien glanced through them quickly and pondered: "Isn't it a relativistic quantum field theory?"

"This is a plan for the future. Let's solve the general issues first. If you are interested, we can discuss it often." Brooke did not hide anything, and the discussion he spoke of was obviously a discussion with authorship rights.

It seems that the teacher did not invite the Speaker to join this discussion, perhaps because he was worried about Mr. Brooke's relationship with him? Lucien judged based on this, but Mr. Brooke also said that the research should be done step by step.

"Douglas is busy preparing for his ultra-long-distance space jump, and he also has a lot of research. He has no time to distract himself from more fields. Otherwise, he would be happy to do similar work. As for now, for him, discovering planets may be more important than discovering planets.

Life is still important..." Fernando said in a loud and authentic voice, as if he was thinking what Lucien was thinking, without any hesitation that Brooke was right next to him.

Lucien himself had done some research on the content of the draft, so he quickly joined Fernando and Brooke in the exchange and came up with some ideas that impressed them.

Fernando and Brooke were not surprised by this. They were the first to say that Lucien, who first proposed the quantization of electromagnetic fields, had not conducted research on this aspect.

In such a discussion atmosphere, time passed quickly. Brooke stood up with satisfaction and picked up his cane: "Although the main problem still stands in front of us like the Cult of Truth, we have finally made some progress, Fernando

, I will present this paper at the end of the month so that more arcanists can see it, hoping that they can come up with more novel but effective ideas."

After the exchange just now, he understood that Lucien also had no idea of ​​how to solve the most important problems. Of course, he was already prepared to be unable to solve problems of this level in one, two, seven or eight years.

He has experienced many situations.

"It is estimated that there will be no more than a hundred arcanists within the parliament who can understand and are interested in studying quantum field theory..." Fernando has always been known for his sharp tongue and being good at criticizing, "They may prefer negative energy state vacuum recently.

The source of magic caused by the strange properties of the sea and microscopic particles satisfies all their fantasies."

"The sea of ​​negative energy vacuum, this is indeed a bit surreal, because it is difficult for us to imagine that we are living in a sea of ​​negative energy vacuum, but we are completely unable to sense its existence, but it is not impossible, haha, vacuum maybe

It's really not empty." He said this out of emotion, "Lucien, what do you think of the negative energy vacuum sea? It solves the energy and material problems of your magic concept."

"Actually, I have reservations about this." Lucien answered cautiously.

Brooke was obviously very interested: "Do you have other ideas? It won't be something that cannot be studied temporarily.

'The real world, right?'

"I started from the uncertainty principle, Mr. Brooke, do you still remember the huge energy fluctuations in a very short period of time described in my paper?" Lucien did not hold back like he did to his students, but he was honest about himself.

The direction of exploration cannot be hidden from the teacher.

"Vacuum fluctuations?" Sure enough, Fernando asked directly.

Brook paused for a moment and recalled: "Since time and energy are a pair of quantities that comply with the uncertainty principle, the more certain the time, the more uncertain the energy. In an extremely short time range, because of the uncertainty principle, even if

Even if it is a vacuum, a huge amount of energy will suddenly surge out and then disappear suddenly. On average, it conforms to the law of conservation of energy and is difficult to sense..."

This is even more unrealistic than the negative energy vacuum sea. The space around you is always filled with energy waves that are constantly rising and falling, but you don't feel it or are affected by it!

"It can be described as an undulating sea of ​​energy." Lucien's description is close to the sea of ​​vacuum in the negative energy state, which is easy to understand.

Fernando did not reject the Uncertainty Principle. What he objected to was Lucien's description of the intrinsic properties of matter. He believed that there were other reasons for the Uncertainty Principle. Therefore, he did not roar at the "constantly undulating sea of ​​energy."

He said seriously: "This can also explain the source of energy, and it has something to do with the field theory we study. I think if we continue to study, we can come up with a new model that includes antiparticles."

"In our previous research, the electric field intensity and the magnetic field intensity became a pair of quantities that comply with the uncertainty principle, which means that they cannot be zero at the same time. Then there are also electromagnetic fluctuations around us that are constantly rising and falling?" Brooke suddenly remembered the previous question.

Research.

Lucien nodded: "That's the theory."

Brooke said seriously and slightly excitedly: "Then perhaps we can design experiments to observe this kind of electromagnetic fluctuation. If this is the case, vacuum is really wonderful!"

After he left happily, Fernando said to Lucien: "In the discussion just now, I think you seem to have something to say?"

Has this been seen? Lucien smiled: "It's mainly because we have some opinions on the definition of matter. Since we have regarded electromagnetic fields as matter a long time ago, why not go one step further? Maybe fields are a type of matter.

Basic form……"

"I'll think about it again." Fernando pinched his forehead.

Lucien saw that he was a little tired, so he asked to leave. At this time, Fernando said sternly: "The observer effect is not a good theory. You'd better not get too obsessed."

Then, he was silent for a moment: "...But your 'unstable' conjectures at the basic level of matter, conjectures about the source of energy and matter, and conjectures about the ups and downs of the vacuum sea, all have certain research value."

Lucien suddenly laughed. Teacher, if you want to praise me, just say so.

"Weak observer..." In the holy city of Reims, Pope Benedict III looked at the sunset outside the window and sighed in a low voice.
