Chapter 513: Twenty years! Relativity finally won the Nobel Prize! Li Qiwei has won five championships! The world is shocked!
October 13, 1922.
Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
In a small office, five members of the Nobel Prize Committee of Physics sat upright.
Four of them looked solemn and frowned slightly, as if they had encountered something very tangled.
In front of them were more than a dozen copies of information about Nobel Prize candidates.
The names of Li Qiwei and Einstein are listed!
Today is the last secret meeting of the "Five-member Group" with the goal of determining the final candidate list.
After the list is determined, it will be submitted directly to the Royal Academy of Sciences tomorrow for the final vote of all Royal Academicians.
If the vote is passed, the final candidate will receive the Nobel Prize for Physics of the year.
And this is the reason for everyone's headaches. "Should we be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics to the Theory of Relativity?"
It has been 10 years since the general theory of relativity been published, and the special theory of relativity has been 20 years ago.
As one of the two pillars of modern physics, the importance of relativity to physics is self-evident.
But this theory is really incredible.
Even today, not many people dare to pat their chests and say: I understand relativity very well.
This shows it.
But Professor Bruce's name is now a great legend in the physics community.
Everyone has already tied him with Newton, and the other party is a well-deserved scientific leader.
Of all the hundreds of nominees invited by the Physics Nobel Prize Committee every year, almost half of them nominate the theory of relativity to the Nobel Prize.
But for the sake of insurance, the committee did not choose relativity in its final evaluation meeting.
Be careful and be cautious!
Some people even joked:
"Professor Bruce is not bad for this Nobel Prize anyway."
Originally, several members of the committee were also planning to exclude relativity according to the practices of previous years. , then choose the best.
However, the first plenary conference of the International Astronomical Federation held in February this year disrupted everyone's plans.
The five people did not expect that the prediction of general relativity, the expansion of the universe, would be proved!
This is a big deal!
Not talking about how Hubble can reach the top in one step, this news means that the correctness of general relativity is almost unquestionable.
In addition to the stellar evolution theory finally proposed by Professor Bruce, the formation and source of black holes are theoretically proved.
This almost proves the prophecy of black holes.
In this way, three major prophecies in general relativity have been proved.
Who dares to say that this theory is wrong?
The broad phase is created on the basis of narrow phases.
Although the two are not very close.
But over the past twenty years, many experiments have also proved the correctness of narrow phenomena.
So, there is no reason for the five-member group to rule out relativity.
Otherwise, their professionalism will be questioned.
Professor Bruce has so many fans that he can even squirt them to death.
Today's meeting is not so much a candidate, but rather a decision to award the theory of relativity.
After all, the results of relativity compared to other candidates are undoubtedly crushing and there is no need to compare.
Arennius, chairman of the Nobel Prize Committee for Physics, broke the silence first.
His words caused a stir in an instant.
"I think the theory of relativity must be awarded this year."
"And it combines narrow and broad aspects, and at the same time presents awards to Professor Einstein and Professor Bruce." >
Wow!
The other four were shocked.
Arennius is 63 years old. He is the first Nobel Prize winner in Sweden and is the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
His reason for the Nobel Prize was to propose the ionization theory, which is the category of physicochemistry.
Alenius, like Rutherford, always thought that he was studying physics, but he happened to be used in chemistry.
So, not long after he became a member of the Nobel Prize Committee on Chemistry, he felt that it was meaningless, so he joined the Nobel Prize Committee on Physics.
And his identity and status became the chairman unswervingly.
This means that his opinion is very substantial.
This year marks his second year as chairman.
In fact, in the first year, he proposed to present an award to the Theory of Relativity.
However, it was opposed by the other four committee members, so they had to give up.
The five members of the Nobel Prize Committee for Physics are in equal relations, and even if Arenius is the chairman of the committee, he cannot act arbitrarily.
At this time, another committee member, Professor of Physics at Uppsala University in Sweden, asked:
"Professor Arenius, can talk about your Is it a reason? ”
Sigbahn's research field is X-rays, and it has achieved remarkable results.
In real history, he will win the Nobel Prize in Physics 2 years later.
So, he belongs to the second boss of the five-member group and is also very important.
Arennius glanced at everyone and smiled: "My reason is very simple."
"Because the theory of relativity is the most important achievement in the physics community. ”
"And there is enough evidence to prove that it is right."
Wow!
Sigbahn and others suddenly felt moved when they heard this.
They never expected that Professor Arenius's reason was so "bright".
But soon, they thought of it.
"Isn't this the requirement mentioned by Mr. Nobel in his will?"
"The Nobel Prize is only awarded to those who have the most important discoveries or inventions."
The four people suddenly realized, It turns out that they have always thought too much.
It even deviates a little from the original intention of awarding the Nobel Prize.
Sigbarn had a little ashamed on his face, and he nodded at Arenius.
The latter just smiled slightly.
At this time, another committee member, Professor of Physics at Lund University, said:
"Professor Arenius, I agree with you."
< br>"But I still have to consider and analyze the worst case."
"Modern physics has developed faster than everyone imagined."
"Almost every year, very important theoretical and experimental results have been published."
"The emergence of new theories and the elimination of old theories has become a consensus in the physics community."
" > "For example, the reconstruction quantum theory that Professor Bruce has been mentioning recently."
"It is not guaranteed that Bohr's theoretical model may be wrong in a few years."
"But we have Awarded the Quantum Theory.”
"If relativity is proven wrong in the future, what impact will it have on the Nobel Prize?"
Krass's words made everyone think.
In the eyes of outsiders, these members of the Nobel Prize Committee are undoubtedly big shots.
To some extent, they have a huge impact on who won the Nobel Prize.
But this is both honor and pressure.
If they are not good at choosing, they will easily be questioned too much, which will tarnish the sacredness and lofty status of the Nobel Prize.
For scholars, no one wants to get the evaluation of the level too much.
That was simply the biggest insult.
So, Kras's concern is not only for relativity, but also for similar situations that may occur in the future.
Ahrennius laughed and said:
"Well, you can listen to my thoughts on this issue."
"I am the only one among the five of us who have won the Nobel Prize."
Sigbarn, Kra Si and the other four looked at each other and smiled bitterly: Boss, I won’t take you as naked as humiliating.
"What do you feel after I won the Nobel Prize?"
"Excited? Excited?"
"It does, but these emotions last for a short time, and the rest is dull."
"Because I know clearly that my research results themselves are far more than the Nobel Prize award. Important. "
"Now the scientific community regards the Nobel Prize as a supreme honor." "
"But as scientists, we must be clear about it: "
"It is the amazing scientist who has given the Nobel Prize its current status, not the Nobel Prize's noble status to the winner."
"Don't put the cart before the horse."
"Have anyone ever seen Professor Bruce tell everyone I'm the Nobel Prize winner?"
"No."
>"Even Newton can make mistakes, Professor Bruce missed it."
"Why can't you be wrong with the Nobel Prize?"
"As long as our fault is not the kind of stupid human-made mistake."
"The kind of mistake Professor Kras just mentioned is the fault of historical development."
" It is a stage that scientific development will inevitably go through, and no one can guarantee to avoid it. "
"So, we don't need to have a psychological burden at all."
"If someone really wants to be a day in the future If the theory of relativity is overturned, then the world will not blame today's award presentation."
"And I will only be infinitely curious: what kind of theory would that be?"
"In other words, we should expect someone to overturn the Nobel Prize selection."
"Because , that means that humans are going further away from the truth! ”
Wow!
Arennius made a comeback and successfully convinced everyone to let go of their grudges.
All four people admired: "I am a Nobel Prize boss, but I look at the problem more profound than ordinary people."
The supremacy of the Nobel Prize is not because it is always good, but because it always Represents the most advanced achievements of physics!
It is a flag!
Every storm will only make the flag fly brighter!
Then, Arenius joked: "Oh, there is another benefit after winning the theory of relativity." "You think about it, Professor Bruce is only 42 years old this year."
"What does this mean?"
"With the other party's talent, he will definitely publish more results in the future."
"These achievements may not be as good as the theory of relativity, but they are definitely at the level of the Nobel Prize."
"For example, the recent theory of stellar evolution, I think there is no problem with winning the Nobel Prize."
" So should we award these achievements at that time? "
"If all of them are awarded, then the Nobel Prize will be simply renamed to the Bruce Prize in the future." "
"But if the theory of relativity wins the award, Then if Professor Bruce wants to win the Nobel Prize again, he must surpass himself."
"Otherwise, with Professor Bruce's character, he would never give up the Nobel Prize for the Nobel Prize."
Wow!
Sigbahn and the other four were stunned.
Awesome!
This angle is really amazing.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is true.
However, the few people suddenly felt bitter in their hearts.
"Damn! The honor we may not necessarily get after our struggle for the rest of our lives."
"It's just the useless garbage that Professor Bruce discarded."
The gap between people is the same." , it's really bigger than both humans and dogs.
Finally, Arenius returned to his seriousness and said solemnly: "Now, I propose to select the theory of relativity as the final candidate, and Lichvi and Albert Einstein as the final candidates." br>
"If you agree, please raise your hand."
Immediately, Arenius himself took the lead in raising his hand.
"Agree!"
Immediately afterwards, the other four members expressed their opinions one by one.
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
"Agree!"
——
October 15, 1922.
The Nobel Prize was announced!
The winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics are: Li Qiwei (Bruce Lee), Albert Einstein.
Their reason for winning is to propose special relativity and general relativity.
The reason is extremely short and straightforward, reflecting the supreme status of relativity.
As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked!
After twenty years, the theory of relativity finally won the Nobel Prize!
Countless people were in agitation! "God! My favorite theory of relativity has finally won the Nobel Prize!"
"I originally thought that the narrow and broad sides won the award separately, but I didn't expect it to be together."
Someone immediately explained:
"Good together!"
> "Professor Einstein has made great contributions to narrow aspects, and Professor Bruce has made broad aspects out of thin air."
"They were already close friends in the late period."
"The friendship between each other is not comparable to one award."
"This ending is the most perfect."
"."
For a moment, everyone envied him. .
They also want to have such a friendship with Professor Bruce.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Suddenly, everyone exclaimed: "Professor Bruce has five Nobel Prizes now!"
"Oh God, five crowns are added, Unprecedented, there will probably be no one to come."
"Professor Bruce is really terrible."
At this moment, Li Qiwei was like a god in the eyes of everyone.
What are the concepts of five Nobel Prizes?
One person arrives in ten countries!
That is an achievement that everyone can only look up to!
Huaxia.
Countless people ran around and told each other.
"Professor Li Qiwei won the Nobel Prize again and showed his power!"
"We Chinese talents are the smartest in the world!"
Li Qiwei's deeds inspired him again Chinese people.
Led by Huaxia Science Society, the Chinese Physical Society and the Chinese Astronomical Society organized a popular science lecture on the theory of relativity.
Ren Hongjun specially invited Qian Wushi as a guest speaker.
At present, except for Professor Li Qiwei, the second strongest person in the Chinese scientific community is Qian Wushi.
Teacher Qian Wu said domineeringly in his speech: "It's not me that I'm bragging. If it weren't for Professor Li to propose and publish the theory of general relativity."
"Even if it's another 100 years. , it will not be born. ”
"It is his luck for others to win the Nobel Prize; and it is his luck for winning the Nobel Prize in the theory of relativity."
"It is the greatest theory in the Nobel Prize so far!"
<< br>Boom!
There was thunderous applause from the audience!
The self-confidence that Chinese people suppressed for a long time exploded at this moment.
The greater the honor Li Qiwei has won outside, the stronger it will be to enhance the country's scientific status.
Even with national self-confidence will increase unprecedentedly.
Everyone involuntarily compares other countries.
"Some time ago, a man named Xiong from Sakura Country was widely promoted in China just by publishing a paper."
"Compared with Professor Li, he was simply fireflies. The light and the bright moon compete for light."
"Tsk, how can Sakurako compare with us!"
For most ordinary people, they do not need to understand the profound connotation of the theory of relativity.
They just need to know:
After the four great inventions, Huaxia Science is great again and affects the world!
United States.
Hubble, Wu Youxun and others congratulated each other in different ways.
Especially Hubble, he is even more excited than winning the Nobel Prize.
Because he thinks that relativity will win the Nobel Prize this year, he will definitely be a contribution.
If he hadn't proved the correctness of the prediction of the expansion of the universe, he would probably not have impressed the Nobel Prize Committee of Physics.
Haier smiled and said to Hubble:
"Professor Bruce probably never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize when he held an astronomical conference." Hubble laughed and said: "This is what Professor Bruce deserves. "
Haer suddenly said excitedly: "Huber, I have a strong premonition."
"You will be the first to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in the field of astronomy."
Wow!
Hubble was shocked when he heard this.
He never thought he would win the Nobel Prize.
You know, Eddington verified the bending of the star several years ahead of him.
Until now, he has not won the Nobel Prize.
The Nobel Prize in Physics also has precedents awarded to the field of astronomy.
Haier saw Hubble's question and said confidently: "Although Guangxiang has five major prophecies, there are differences between prophecies." >
"The expansion of the universe is far higher than the bending of starlight, both in terms of verification difficulty and theoretical influence."
"Edington may not necessarily win the Nobel Prize, but you, Hubble, are definitely qualified."
"Besides, you have proved the Cosmic Islands theory."
"So, I firmly believe in you It must be!" Haier's words made Hubble's blood boil.
That's the Nobel Prize!
Who can not love?
Hubble murmured to himself:
"But, really can I?"
University of Berlin, Germany.
All teachers and students in the school congratulate Professor Einstein.
The other party has been waiting for twenty years, and now he has finally realized his dream!
Although the Nobel Prize is not particularly important to these bigwigs.
But in today's scientific community, the Nobel Prize has long become synonymous with authority.
Although it cannot add glory to the theory of relativity, it can allow Einstein to go to a broader stage.
Scientists are also human beings, and they also have their own emotions and six desires.
So, this can be regarded as a worldly dream!
Einstein's face was filled with a smile.
He did not feel calm as he imagined, but shared this joy with everyone.
Friends Laue, Born and others all came to congratulate.
Laue sighed in his heart that he knew it was too difficult for Einstein.
Others may not need this Nobel Prize, but Einstein must.
"Congratulations, Einstein!"
Einstein hugged Laue, everything was indifferent.
At this time, Born laughed at himself with a bitter face: "Hey, now Laue and Einstein, you both have the Nobel Prize, only I don't."
"You won't stop playing with me in the future." Einstein said with a smile: "Born, I've been waiting for twenty years, you've just been here. How long have you been waiting. "
"Or why you go to study for Bruce's Ph.D. "He will definitely give you a Nobel Prize."
Everyone laughed.
Then, Einstein said in a longing for a longing: "It's a pity that we are all far behind Bruce."
"He is the five-time champion. Ah! ”
Laue, Born and others were all very moved.
In a blink of an eye, they and Professor Bruce have known each other for more than twenty years.
For such a long time, they were chasing for desperately.
From the young genius at the time to the physics tycoon now.
But not only did not narrow, but the gap was constantly getting bigger.
Only by truly reaching their height can we deeply understand how incredible Professor Bruce is.
"No, the five Nobel Prizes are definitely not the end of Professor Bruce!"
"There will be visitors later!"
"He is the future Professor Bruce!"
"He is the future Professor Bruce!" >Einstein looked at the direction of Britain from afar, and his heart was filled with passion.
He agreed with the judgment of Laue and others.
"Bruce, the Nobel Prize is just ordinary."
"You never stopped."
"Because I know you have not embarked on the road to unity."< "What are you waiting for?"
——
Time goes back a little.
UK, within the Institute of Quantum Studies.
The Nobel Prize Committee called the winning phone number to the secretariat of the institute.
So, Wang Zhengyang got the news first.
After Li Qiwei for several years, he is no longer the young boy he used to be.
He clearly knew the shock of winning the Nobel Prize in Relativity.
Wang Zhengyang's face was extremely excited, and he couldn't help but smile.
Schrödinger happened to come to Wang Zhengyang to align some relevant information in the institute.
Now that the Institute of Quantum Research is growing stronger, as the head of the Science Department, he naturally has more things to do.
At this moment, he saw that the latter's face was so excited, so he asked with a smile:
"Wang, is there anything happy?" Wang Zhengyang said excitedly: "Theory of Relativity has won the Nobel Prize!"
Boom!
Schrödinger was shocked!
The young man couldn't hold back and the news spread quickly.
When Wang Zhengyang and all the staff in the institute stood at the door of Professor Bruce's office.
Everyone's voice was filled with breath, and his face was filled with an uncontrollable look.
Wang Zhengyang took a deep breath, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
A calm sound came from the door:
"Please come in."
Squeak!
Everyone rushed in!
Wang Zhengyang and everyone shouted in unison: "Professor Bruce, your theory of relativity has won the Nobel Prize!"
At this time, everyone saw a scene that they would never forget for life.
Li Qiwei raised his head gently.
Then, smiled slightly.
Speak gentle and peacefully: "Oh? Is that so? It's pretty good."
Wow!
Everyone just feels that his soul is about to fall.
"How could there be such a calm man in this world?"
"Professor Bruce's every move seems to contain the laws of the universe."
"Even if he does not want to know how to do it."
"Even if he does not want to know how to do it." It's the Nobel Prize, but it's just a breeze blowing on your face."
Under everyone's gaze, Li Qiwei stood up, walked to the window, with his back facing the people.
At this moment, in the eyes of everyone, a domineering figure slowly rose.
Shocks everyone's hearts.
A prickly light burst out from Schrödinger, Pauli, Heisenberg and others.
Their spirit was activated at this moment.
Turn into substance and integrate into Professor Bruce's aura.
That is the physical resonance between the strong and the stronger!
Hire is boiling!
Heisenberg's heart is even more ambitious.
"This is the real man!"
"Sooner or later, I will also be like Professor Bruce, and look down on the world!"
No one knows what that majestic man is thinking.
At this moment, Li Qiwei thought in his heart, just as Arenius expected.
"The next time I win the Nobel Prize is the end of physics!"
