Chapter 254 I will silence the doubters (23)

After hearing what his assistant said, Perlmutter sat up from the bed and asked in astonishment, "Which paper? Is it the one that Chen Xiaoxin published on arXiv?"

"Yes, Professor!"

The assistant replied seriously: "I have downloaded the paper and sent it to your email."

"it is good!"

"I'm going to see it now!"

After hanging up the phone, Professor Perlmutter lifted the quilt and anxiously put on his clothes, leaving his wife beside him looking confused.

"Where are you going?"

The wife asked doubtfully.

"I'm going to read a paper that can change the world's physical framework!"

After saying this, Professor Perlmutter hurriedly left the bedroom and went to his study. He turned on his computer immediately and found an email from his assistant. He downloaded the attached file to his computer and opened it nervously and excitedly.

Still continuing the concise and rigorous style, the entire paper only has five pages of content. At this time, Professor Perlmutter took a deep breath and put all his energy into the paper. In less than a few minutes, he roughly understood Chen Xiaoxin's ideas.

OMG!

He...he is so brave!

Professor Perlmutter was almost suffocating. Although the content was based on the framework of quantum mechanics, some of the assumptions in it felt audacious.

Suppressing the fear and uneasiness in his heart, Perlmutter continued to delve into the content. When he finished reading the entire theoretical model, his scalp felt numb for a moment and his eyes were full of surprise. If all this is true, then the lifeless field of physics will usher in a new boom!

But then again, this theoretical model does not actually clearly describe the process of wave function collapse, and there are still many vague contents, such as the lack of a clear explanation of the wave-particle duality.
but,

This is already a world-class achievement!

Wave function collapse is just a hypothesis, but this hypothesis has achieved unprecedented results, jumping the dynamic variables to a certain eigenstate.
To give an example, before the position of an electron is measured, its behavior is that of a wave, so where the electron is is completely meaningless. But as long as the position is measured, the electron has specific coordinates, that is, the electron collapses to a certain eigenstate. To summarize, particles are produced because of measurement.

And Chen Xiaoxin
He roughly described one of the steps, the process of giving electrons coordinates, but he did not explain why particles were produced.

enough!

This achievement alone is enough, enough to change the whole world!

"This equation"

"Why is it so complicated?"

Professor Perlmutter felt lost and puzzled when he looked at the equation given by Chen Xiaoxin. Although the whole equation was not very long, it had three variables, which made the calculation of this equation very difficult and cumbersome. If it could be compressed further, it might be widely promoted!
at this time,

The cell phone on the table rang, and the caller was Perlmutter's friend, Professor Dennis.

"Did you see it?"

"That paper on the wave function collapse process was suddenly made public!" Professor Dennis said anxiously, "The content is simply too shocking!"

"I saw it."

"I feel pretty much the same way as you do."

Professor Perlmutter said with emotion: "It is amazing that he can publish such a paper without any fear. My intuition tells me that there is nothing wrong with his theoretical model, especially when it comes to symmetric or antisymmetric structures. It is handled perfectly!"

"That's right!"

"I didn't expect that his achievements in mathematics could be applied to physics! He is simply a genius!" Dennis also said with emotion: "If this theoretical model finally matches the experimental data, it is hard to imagine what the world will become."

Professor Perlmutter hesitated for a moment and said with some concern: "But then again, his theoretical model is actually a devastating blow to the physics community. I believe many people will openly oppose it."

Dennis said: "There are already some people who oppose it, including several Nobel Prize winners in physics. In short, the opposition is very strong."

“Not surprising.”

"His research results, to some extent, make many people's research a joke." Professor Perlmutter said: "Once the process of generating coordinates is determined, all research in this field needs to start over."

For a time,

The two fell into silent silence.
The entire physics community was shocked!

The paper published by Chen Xiaoxin on arXiv is like a huge rock hitting the calm lake, causing huge waves that cover the sky. Many people will undoubtedly die in this huge wave.

The voices of public opposition to him have spread all over the world, including quantum mechanics giants and several Nobel Prize winners in physics. These people all oppose Chen Xiaoxin's absurd theory. But all this.
Chen Xiaoxin had anticipated this and did not retaliate. Instead of wasting time on this, he should think more about the physics problems in reality. After all, you can never let a frog know that there is such a vast world outside the well.

of course,

There is also a lot of opposition in China! The key is that the offensiveness is stronger than that abroad. Various strange reports and posts have spread all over the Internet.

"Professor XX openly opposes, calling it an absurd theory!"

《He is playing a dangerous game!》

"Professor Chen Xiaoxin is wrong this time!"

Based on those opposing voices, many self-media outlets wrote countless similar reports. The core content was that Chen Xiaoxin was wrong, and wrong to an outrageous degree. He applied absurd ideas to the field of physics.

in fact,

Lack of recognition is a common phenomenon, because in the face of science, any new theory will experience controversy and discussion, even Einstein's theory of relativity. When it was first born, the academic community has been critical of his theory of relativity.

Before the special theory of relativity, people believed that time and space were independent and absolute existences, and Newton's classical mechanics was founded on the basis of the absolute view of time and space.

As a result, a young man suddenly said that time and space themselves are not absolute. Every mover in four-dimensional space-time can define his own time and space, and time and space change with the change of the reference system.

If this is true
The consequences would be very serious, meaning that Newton's classical mechanics might need to be revised!
Chen Xiaoxin is going through this process. He has visualized a certain process of wave function collapse, allowing people to "intuitively" feel how the wave function collapses. In this way, many research results will collapse and become wrong directly due to this theory.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Chen Xiaoxin's theory has undoubtedly turned the lifeless physics world upside down and destroyed many people's jobs, so he will be opposed.

however,
Chen Xiaoxin did not overturn the verified hypothesis of wave function collapse, he just supplemented the missing theory in this hypothesis.

"It's over!"

“The opposition is too loud!”

Wu Tao was about to collapse when he read the relevant reports, with bitterness and melancholy on his face.

The current disagreement is not just academic, but more of a life-and-death survival issue. If Chen Xiaoxin's theory is proven to be correct, many people's research results will be wiped out.
After a moment of contemplation,
Wu Tao called Chen Xiaoxin.

"Hey?"

"Director, is there anything I can do for you?" Chen Xiaoxin on the phone sounded a little lazy, as if he didn't take the outside world's doubts and criticisms about him seriously at all.

Wu Tao looked confused and asked cautiously, "Xiao Chen, from what I hear from you, you seem to be indifferent. There are voices questioning and criticizing you outside, don't you have the slightest worry?"

"What is there to worry about?"

"Every new theory will experience controversy and discussion. Isn't this normal?" Chen Xiaoxin said with a smile: "It's okay. I have a big heart. These voices can't reach my ears. Even if they do, it doesn't matter. I can compete with them in scientific research results."

"."

“The problem now is very serious!”

Wu Tao said earnestly: "Do you think they want to dispute and discuss? No! No! In fact, they want you to die."

"Director, you are exaggerating."

"Now we live in a society ruled by law. What's life or death?" Chen Xiaoxin said with a smile.

"I'm not talking about your physical death, but the death of your reputation." Wu Tao said bitterly: "You have touched the cake of many people."

Chen Xiaoxin curled his lips and replied helplessly: "No. I don't quite understand. Logically speaking, my theory has promoted the development of physics, and everyone has a new research direction. Why do you want to kill me for no reason? For example, the birth of relativity and quantum mechanics has injected so much power into physics!"

"That state of vigor and vitality, where everything is competing to flourish, is still before my eyes!" Chen Xiaoxin took a deep breath and said with melancholy: "Just a hundred years later, I proposed a new theory. And it turned out to be my burial place?"

"Times have changed."

“People’s hearts are complicated”

Wu Tao pursed his lips and asked seriously, "What are your subsequent thoughts? Are you going to remain silent?"

"Uh"

"I plan to upload an article with the specific experimental steps." Chen Xiaoxin said calmly: "Use practical actions to tell everyone that my theoretical model can withstand everyone's experimental results!"

This move is very dangerous!
But this move is amazing!!
