Chapter 312 The Ten Years of Broadcasting Shocked the World! Who in the world doesn’t know you! (3)
10 am on July 15, 1912.
The latest issue of the journal "Nature" has been grandly released around the world.
The first people to read the paper were people from the physics community.
Europe.
Department of Physics, Manchester University of Technology, UK.
Rutherford and his doctors, including Moseley, Galton, Dehevesey and others, are all holding a copy of the general theory of relativity.
Hiss!
There was another gasp of air in the room.
Although Rutherford was in front of his students, he could not remain calm at this moment.
"God, I really can't imagine that Bruce actually theoretically deduced that space-time is curved and gravity does not exist."
"Although I can't understand any of the mathematical derivation formulas of the entire theory ."
"But I have strong confidence that Bruce must be right."
"I had always held on to the possibility that he was joking with me."
“I didn’t expect it.”
"God, how could space be curved?"
"And time is curved along with it?"
"It's really incredible."
Moss Lai and others did not laugh at their mentor at all.
Because this is the reaction of normal people.
As for the content in the paper, as long as it is a person in the field of physics, if anyone does not react in this way, then there must be something wrong with him.
Either he is a fool, or he has to be Professor Bruce himself.
Galton felt the deepest at this moment.
His uncle Francis, professor of botany at Cambridge University.
His reputation took a huge hit because of his argument with Professor Bruce about the theory of evolution.
Galton was often warned and taught by Uncle Francis: "One must remain humble and not have any prejudice."
At this moment, he understood what kind of person his uncle was dealing with. existence fight.
In fact, in Galton's heart, he felt a little bit dissatisfied.
After all, no matter how wrong Francis was, he was still his biological uncle and a member of their Darwin family.
Galton thought that if he made achievements in the field of physics in the future, he might not be able to compete with Professor Bruce again.
However, the second quantum theory conference destroyed his inner dream.
Galton knew that the gap between himself and Professor Bruce was simply immeasurable.
However, the general theory of relativity in his hands now made him understand that this was not a gap in strength at all, but a gap in species.
Comparing him to Professor Bruce is like comparing a gorilla to a human.
"Professor Bruce is so scary!"
Dehevesi is 28 years old and is the little brother in the laboratory.
He has the least relationship with Li Qiwei. It can even be said that he has no contact and can only watch from a distance in the audience.
At this moment, he was the first to wake up from the shock and asked doubtfully:
"Professor, since Professor Bruce predicted the existence of black holes in his paper, why didn't he calculate it himself? "
Rutherford smiled: "I don't know much about calculus."
"But I also know that this equation is very difficult to analyze."
"Bruce just deduced that black holes should exist from the theory of thinking."
"By the way, I think his name is not right. Okay, black hole, black hole is too ugly.”
“I think it’s better to call it black body.”
Moseley and the others didn’t dare to laugh.
I silently complained in my heart: Tutor, your name should be more unpleasant.
Rutherford had no idea of his own taste and continued: "Bruce is such a lazy person."
"I have been a rich young man since I was a child, and I don't even have to wear my own clothes. "
"This kind of purely violent mathematical problem-solving work is a chore for him."
"I think he is simply too lazy to do it."
< br>
"But you can all give it a try."
"If we can really calculate the solution corresponding to a black hole, it should not be a big problem to become famous in the physics community."
"This is also considered Bruce. This is an opportunity for you.”
“I’ll forget it, I’m too bad at math.”
Moseley and others were very excited.
Darling, if this really works out.
That is equivalent to the prover of black holes.
Although it is impossible to win the Nobel Prize, it is definitely a major achievement and famous.
A few people suddenly thought about it.
At the same time, they were shocked by Professor Bruce's casualness.
For such an important result, we just need to find a way to calculate it.
No one present felt that Professor Bruce could not calculate.
With his genius, is there anything in this world that he cannot do?
But the other party threw away a result at will just because he was lazy.
“Hey, it’s really annoying to compare people to each other.”
Galton came out of his depression and became cheerful again.
If Bruce is stronger than him, he will not accept it.
But when Bruce was one dimension better than him, he could only admire him.
Galton no longer wanted to catch up, so he smiled and said:
“I feel that any one of the five predictions proved will be earth-shattering results.”
"And the gravitational waves and the expansion of the universe, I really can't imagine it. Is this really possible?"
Light bending was the most accepted by everyone present.
Because its derivation process is the simplest and clearest, as long as you have basic physics knowledge, it is enough to understand.
Although it is still a bit confusing, it seems to be the most logical.
As for gravitational redshift and black holes, these two predictions are a bit beyond intuition.
It is difficult to imagine it through the brain, and the result must be obtained through specific calculations.
As for the final gravitational waves and the expansion of the universe, it is really appalling.
The general theory of relativity is very clear. Although gravity itself does not exist, this concept was retained by Bruce.
Includes the concept of gravitational field.
Having this concrete concept is very helpful for physicists to deal with problems.
Everyone can understand this.
But how could there be ripples in space and time?
Just like water, a stone thrown into water can create waves.
Throwing a sun into space may produce gravitational waves.
Although this prophecy is very vivid, its weirdness transcends people's knowledge structure.
Space is empty, how can it ripple?
The expansion of the universe is the most exaggerated of the five predictions.
People from Rutherford's laboratory often had contacts with Ridgway's laboratory.
So Galton and others are also very familiar with Hubble.
So they also know some basic common sense about current astronomy.
Now astronomers don't even know whether there is only one Milky Way in the universe.
Professor Bruce transcended the Milky Way and set his sights directly on the entire universe.
The universe is expanding!
Galton could already imagine the shock of the astronomy group.
Facing his problem, Rutherford could only sigh.
"Is it possible? I don't know."
"Only by thoroughly understanding Bruce's thesis can we consider whether his prediction is correct."
Others don't know either, no one dares Say you know.
But in any case, the five predictions mean the results of the five physics.
There will be five lucky winners.
And their results, taken together, are just ripples of Professor Bruce's broad vision.
Rutherford sighed.
“I’m not as good as Bruce.”
“Only this paper, unless Newton and Maxwell are reincarnated, no one can compare with him.”
Luther Professor Fu's words shocked Moseley and the others and made their blood boil.
What an honor that is.
Professor Bruce has reached the top of the physics world at the age of 32.
Above him, there were only the footprints of the gods.
Although Bruce has always been known as the so-called first person in physics.
But it was of a heckling nature.
Because he was young and extremely talented, everyone just casually said that Galton was a genius.
And now, the general theory of relativity comes out.
Professor Bruce is the undisputed number one in the world.
Unless Newton crawls out of the coffin slab.
But even if you really climb out, you will have to compare yourself before you can tell the difference.
Professor Bruce, who is so defiant, is a huge blow to everyone who regards him as a target.

Austro-Hungarian Empire, Prague.
Einstein sat alone in the room.
He looked at the general theory of relativity in his hand, and his heart was shocked like a volcano erupting.
It is an infinite worship of the embodiment of truth.
As the co-author of the special theory of relativity, Einstein is probably the first person to have a deep understanding of the general theory of relativity.
But precisely because of understanding, he felt terrible and incredible.
How amazing and stunning one must be to create such a theory.
Perfectly unify the space, time and matter of the entire universe into one formula.
Even if God were to come in person, the formula written down would not be more concise and beautiful.
Einstein murmured to himself:
"Bruce, I have always targeted you." "Looking now, this is really a desperate thing."
Although he and Bruce collaborated to publish the special theory of relativity, the special phase and the broad phase are completely incomparable.
Narrow phase is a natural result.
Even if he and Bruce don't publish it, Lorenz and other big guys will definitely publish it in a few years.
Because the knowledge background required for narrow phase is all ready-made.
As long as someone dares to take that step, it will be the same as when Bruce proposed quantum theory.
Then the birth of the narrow phase is a matter of time.
But general relativity is different.
This involves profound physical intuition and thoughts, as well as scalp-numbing Riemannian geometry.
Except for Bruce, no physicist will be able to figure it out even in another 100 years.
Only by combining the top physicists and mathematicians into one can there be any chance.
Thinking of this, Einstein stood up, walked to the window, and sighed:
"When there is love, there is no love."
He has decided to leave Prague today.
The Austro-Hungarian Empire wooed him and provided him with very good treatment.
That’s why he was willing to come.
But currently, if you want to keep up with the mainstream physics community, you must go to the center of Europe.
Einstein decided that he wanted to go to Germany.
There, he can continue to compete with the top geniuses in physics.
Staying here, although it is very comfortable, will make him numb.
Out the window, the sun's rays shone on the world and warmed his cheeks.
That is the sunlight that Guangxiang can control. Perhaps the light is bending, as if grinning.
Einstein suddenly burst into passion and laughed wildly.
“No, I will never admit defeat!”
“Even though Bruce published the general theory of relativity, I believe that there will be greater challenges in physics in the future.”
"I want to surpass general relativity!"
If Li Qiwei were here, he would definitely pat Einstein on the shoulder and comfort him:
"Don't worry, Brother Ai, there are still four basic forces that need to be unified in the future. Your chances are great."
——
France, Madame Curie with her two daughters, He is telling them about the general theory of relativity.
It sounds a bit weird.
However, this is Madame Curie’s special education method.
This is no longer about letting children win at the starting line.
Instead, let the children sit at the finish line, eat melon seeds and chicken feet and watch the show.
The eldest daughter Irena is 15 years old this year. She has inherited the appearance of Madame Curie and is becoming more and more attractive.
Having studied science all year round, she has an aura of agility that other girls don’t have.
Although Irena could not understand the content of the paper, the curvature of time and space and that special romance made her yearn for it and make her imagination wander.
This little girl who loves science and physics has a certain innocent love for macro photography.
She took her mother's hand and said excitedly:
"Mom, I must be Uncle Bruce's student in the future and study physics with him."
Curie The lady touched her head, held her in her arms, and said lovingly:
"Don't worry, your Uncle Bruce has already said that you can go to him for graduate school at any time after you graduate from the undergraduate program. ”
"Don't cry when the time comes. Professor Bruce is very strict with academics."
Irena said confidently: "I'm not afraid, my science grades are the best in the class. "
"I am no worse than those boys."
Mrs. Curie smiled even happier.
After Li Qiwei's operation and the news that she won the double Nobel Prize, the scandals about her have almost disappeared now.
The life of her and her children has returned to normal, ordinary but warm.
What happened between her and Lang Zhiwan is not worth mentioning compared to the general theory of relativity.
Mrs. Curie knew it very well, even though she won two Nobel Prizes.
But this has nothing to do with her female identity.
She knew that although her achievements were important, they were far behind compared with Bruce and Rutherford.
That's real physics research.
And it has surpassed the imagination of ordinary people.
Madame Curie smiled softly. She knew that for Bruce, the so-called Nobel Prize was probably just a plaything.
“With this general theory of relativity, Bruce’s status in the world of physics should be unparalleled.”
“He is a real man.”
"Even with such a difficult oath, he still kept his promise and achieved the most perfect level."
Mrs. Curie sighed instead. This sigh contained too many things that could not be explained clearly.
Suddenly, a waxy voice interrupted her thoughts.
“Yeah, I painted Uncle Bruce’s nose crooked.”
8-year-old little Ive is not interested in her mother’s studies at all, and little Loli is painting.
The painting was her imaginary Uncle Bruce.
Madame Curie and Irena laughed.
——
Germany, University of Berlin.
Planck was alone in the principal's office, laughing heartily.
His joy even outweighed his shock.
Planck’s major was mathematics, so he knew the difficulty of this paper better than anyone else.
"Riemannian geometry, tensor analysis"
"I dare to conclude that no one in the entire physics community can understand Bruce's paper."
"Physicists because Mathematics cannot be understood, and mathematicians cannot understand it because of physics.”
"So, no one in the world can understand this paper."
Although Planck could not understand the paper, he did not question it at the first time, but chose to believe it.
This is Li Qiwei's influence.
He knew that others must think so too.
Since Bruce dares to express it publicly, it means that he has absolute confidence in himself.
You know, if you count the papers Bruce has published over the years, which one is not earth-shattering and well-founded, all of them have been confirmed in the end.
Planck has no doubt that general relativity must be correct!
And in the paper, the field equation has been used to explain the precession of Mercury's perihelion.
This is a powerful proof.
Planck smiled happily.
"Bruce, this time, you finally stand at the top of the world and no longer need my protection."
Twelve years ago, the young man found him because of a chance encounter.
You must share quantum theory with him.
At that time, Planck was already a big shot in the scientific community.
So, he admired it very much.
An oriental boy, he has a true love for academics.
Planck had a passion for talent, so he agreed.
Now think about it, with Bruce’s amazing talent, how could it be that he was not good at math at that time.
“Hey, Bruce, it’s so hard.”
“It would be great if you were European.”
"You don't have to be so cautious at all. You can show your talents boldly."
"People should not discriminate against a pure seeker because of his identity."
"And now, finally, Well, with the general theory of relativity, no one can argue with your identity."
"Your achievements transcend race and national boundaries, and represent the pinnacle of human wisdom. ”
“Bruce, as your teacher, I am proud of you”
Plank looked in the direction of Britain, clenched his fist and waved.
He was extremely proud of Li Qiwei.
——
At this moment, the first batch of people who saw the photo were all going crazy.
On the European side, Britain is the core.
France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden.
Whether it is a Nobel laureate like Lorenz or an ordinary physics professor like Oersted.
Whether it is an old-timer like Roentgen or a younger generation like Bohr, Laue and Born.
Everyone was impressed by Li Qiwei's general theory of relativity.
That is a theory that surpasses all current theories. It can be said to be a crushing one.
The same thought arose in everyone's mind:
"Bruce, should be the number one in the world!"
Even if Guangxiang has not been fully verified yet.
And that is destined to be an extremely difficult task.
Because no one can even understand the paper.
However, this does not affect the status of the Prime Minister.
Because the name Bruce is the biggest proof.
Everyone believes that Guangxiang’s proof is only a matter of time.
With such an earth-shattering and magnificent theory, it cannot be wrong.
Bohr even said to Oster: "God created the world according to the Bruce field equation."
Bohr's admiration for Li Qiwei was simply beyond measure.
He felt that graduating too early might be a bad thing.
It is a pity that he is not the first person to be infected with the aura of Guangxiang.
At this moment, European physicists have too many questions about the universal phase.
What they want to do most right now is to tie up Bruce and make him reveal all the secrets of the Prime Minister.
Everyone was eager to hold a meeting for discussion.
However, everyone understands that it is not possible for the time being.
Because general relativity is so shocking.
Its influence has only just begun.
Europe is just the starting point, followed by America, Asia, and then the whole world.
The world of physics is just the starting point, and soon other disciplines will get the message, especially astronomy.
For astronomers, the general theory of relativity is probably no less than a breakthrough in the world.
Even the entire scientific community is just the starting point.
Everyone believes that relying on the shocking conclusions and predictions of general relativity.
Soon, the whole world will be shocked.
Everyone in the world will go crazy for Guangxiang.
Regardless of race, country, identity, age.
