Chapter 45: Skyrocketing Ninety Thousand Miles
At this moment, in the huge venue, the only sound that could be heard was the scraping of chalk on the blackboard.
To many people, this sound is harsh and uncomfortable.
But to the ears of the truly knowledgeable and powerful people, it is nothing less than the sound of nature.
Especially the dozen physics giants in the front row, all staring intently at every word on the blackboard at this moment.
When Li Qiwei wrote the word "light quantum", there were exclamations in the venue.
Baron Rayleigh could no longer remain calm, "God, does Bruce regard light as [quantum]?"
Wein and Lorenz were in disbelief. In their eyes, the complicated mathematical formulas seemed to be the scroll of the Creator, slowly unfolding.
After Planck saw [Light Quantum], he immediately figured out the cause and effect, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation. "This is such a genius idea!"
Lord Kelvin's face was filled with a cheerful smile, and at the same time, his thoughts had already flown to decades ago.
His equally talented junior brother, Maxwell, was just like Li Qiwei, ignoring authority and jumping in thinking.
But his talent in physics is so high that it makes people jealous. He built the electromagnetic building almost by himself, leaving behind the Maxwell equations that countless people are obsessed with.
Lord Kelvin gradually overlapped the shadows of Ridgway and Maxwell, and tears slowly appeared in his eyes, laughing and crying at the same time.
He laughed at himself: Sure enough, when people get older, it is easy to miss the past and the friends and teammates who once fought side by side.
Thomson, Rutherford, and Wilson, masters and apprentices, were shocked, but they also did not forget to joke.
"Rutherford, Wilson, has Bruce discussed the photoelectric effect with you two?"
The two shook their heads at the same time, and Thomson waved his hand: "Young man, you secretly hid something good again, but this time This time, Cavendish's name must be added to the paper."
"In any case, Bruce couldn't have come up with this method without the help of our laboratory."
Rutherford was dismissed. The instructor was so shocked that he was speechless. His curiosity about Li Qiwei had reached its peak.
He thought about the dispute with the other party again. Is the jujube cake model really wrong? Are there really other structures inside atoms?
Only Wilson made up his mind that after returning this time, he would never leave Ridgway again, and he would have to eat together.
Although the big guys have different thoughts at the moment, they are all in shock.
Of course, more people in the venue actually had no idea what the big guys were surprised and discussing.
For example, classmate Chris, at this moment, he is pulling Professor Case and asking: "Professor, what does the picture that Senior Bruce drew mean?"
Professor Case was stunned. Completely impressed by Li Qiwei's genius, he sighed and said slowly: "That is a schematic diagram of the photoelectric effect."
Chris was puzzled, "What is the photoelectric effect?"
Professor Case said: "In 1887, the German physicist Hertz discovered during an experiment that when light of a specific frequency is irradiated on a metal surface, if When a circuit is added to a metal, an electric current will be generated. "
"Now we know that this is because electrons escape from the metal surface when exposed to light, and these electrons form an electric current. This is the photoelectric effect. . ”
“But so far, no one knows or proves the mechanism of the photoelectric effect, because it cannot be explained by classical physics.”
This is also due to Chris’s vague understanding. As a result of being trained by Li Qiwei these days, otherwise it would be like listening to the scriptures.
However, he also understood that the photoelectric effect was a problem that left physicists around the world at a loss.
And now, his senior Bruce is directly giving proof in front of countless people, and Chris just wants to shout in his heart: Awesome!
Chris was not the only one who was shocked by Li Qiwei.
When there are more and more contents on the blackboard and more and more formulas, even some ordinary professors or doctors will probably understand what Li Qiwei is writing.
But after understanding it, I was so shocked that I was speechless.
Because this method of proof is so amazing that people cannot believe it.
Time passed slowly. Everyone held their breath and looked at the young man in front of the blackboard, waiting for the final proof result.
At this moment, Li Qiwei has almost finished writing on the fourth blackboard.
He felt a slight soreness in his arm, but he also felt a refreshing feeling that penetrated his heart.
To write a Nobel Prize-level result on the spot in front of so many physics tycoons is a sense of accomplishment that Li Qiwei in his previous life could not have imagined. Soon, the chalk in his hand was about to be used up, and Li Qiwei also wrote the last formula and annotation:
"E=hv-W (E: electron kinetic energy, h: Lie-Planck constant, v: frequency of light quantum, W: work required for electrons to get rid of positive charge.)"
Boom!
The whole place was silent for a moment.
There seemed to be countless rays of light shining on Li Qiwei, dazzling everyone.
After an unknown amount of time, Lord Kelvin was the first to applaud.
Soon, people joined in one after another, and within a few seconds, the venue burst into applause.
Li Qiwei was bathed in glory, and a smile finally appeared on his originally calm face.
He said with great enthusiasm: "Hearing everyone's applause, I think there is no need for me to explain more about the content on the blackboard."
"I put the light on As a single [quantum], light of different frequencies carries different energies, thus perfectly explaining the photoelectric effect.”
"This not only proves the correctness of [quantum theory], but also revitalizes Newton's [light particle theory]."
"The nature of light is complex, it is not a simple [wave]."
“Concerning this paper, my friends Einstein and Grossman gave me great inspiration.”
“Einstein’s genius ideas and Grossman’s mathematical skills, Both are crucial to the formulation of the concept of [light quantum]."
"Therefore, when this paper is published, the two of them will be the second authors of the paper."
Wow!
Einstein and Grossman in the audience stood up instantly, their faces full of disbelief.
Although the three of them discussed this issue together at the ETH Zurich, the main content was raised by Li Qiwei.
Now Li Qiwei wants to bear their names on such a major result.
You can imagine what kind of courtesy and praise they will receive once they return to school.
For a moment, Einstein and Grossman were so moved that they didn't know what to say.
The inner drama of Li Qiwei on the stage was even richer: Cupid, I'm sorry, I promise that as long as the photoelectric effect is concerned, the theory of relativity will never touch it.
Everyone else in the venue also looked at the two Einsteins, obviously curious about the two young men.
However, at this moment, Lord Kelvin spoke. "Friends, please be quiet. Now let's return to the topic."
"Baron Rayleigh, Professor Wayne, Professor Lorenz, can Bruce's answer solve your questions?"
< br>
The three of them looked at each other, and then let out a wry smile. The theoretical proof on the blackboard was so perfect that no flaws could be found at all.
Everyone present here, as long as they have an in-depth understanding of the photoelectric effect, must know how amazing the proof on the blackboard is.
If [Quantum Theory] can explain one problem, it can be considered a coincidence, but if it can explain two super difficult problems in succession, it is definitely not accidental or skillful.
[Quantum Theory] must be correct!
Completely proven correct through theory, impeccable.
Now as long as the explanation of the photoelectric effect of [quantum theory] is confirmed through experiments, a brand new theory will be born.
Li Qiwei's heart is racing at the moment. After today, he will really be able to skyrocket to 90,000 miles.
All plans can be carried out.
