Chapter 314 The Ten Years of Broadcasting Shocked the World! Who in the world doesn’t know you! (5)
With the passage of time, the influence of general relativity has not weakened, but has become more and more popular.
Elites in various countries have begun to become familiar with Guangxiang, publicize it, and let the general public know what it means.
In the West, everyone from kings and prime ministers to workers and farmers knows that Bruce became the world's number one scientist.
He is a figure who can be compared with Newton, and he has come to an end in science.
Bruce is a figure that may not appear in human history for hundreds or even thousands of years.
In the East, when the general theory of relativity spread for half a month, China finally boiled.
This is of course due to the introduction work of He Yujie and others.
After they learned about the movements of Sakura Country, they immediately began to translate Guangxiang.
He Yujie's translation must be better than that of Ishihara Jun, because he can ask Li Qiwei details at any time.
And in order to rush for time, he first released a simplified version.
Hold up the greatness of general relativity.
In plain language, explain what this theory is really about.
Especially excerpts from Western newspapers’ reports on the Prime Minister.
He Yujie was also very emotional when he embarked on an exchange visit to China.
More than ten years ago, when Li Qiwei won the Nobel Prize, word spread throughout China immediately.
But now, as technology becomes more developed, it spreads more slowly.
Of course he knows the reason.
The current domestic environment is so chaotic that I have no time to care about it.
Although the Qing Dynasty was decadent, at least the country seemed stable on the surface.
But now, He Yujie could only sigh.
“The principal really got it right.”
“Fortunately, we planned our deployment in Borneo in advance.”
“Otherwise, given the current situation in the country, if we want to develop Basic science is really difficult.”
He came here to call on the domestic education community to unite and make the general theory of relativity famous.
Such a great theory as general relativity was proposed by the Chinese.
This must be well publicized and vigorously promoted.
Those young people who have opened their eyes to see the world are the most enthusiastic.
Their admiration for Li Qiwei has already penetrated deep into their bones.
The schools where many people study were built with the efforts of Li Qiwei.
Therefore, they are also the ones who praise Li Qiwei the most.
“In the West, Li Qiwei is a great figure who can be compared with Newton.”
“He alone changed Europe’s view of the Chinese people.”
“He He is a saint of Chinese science, and he should be ranked with the saint of Confucius."
Boom!
Public opinion is boiling, and our country's prestige is exalted, and China is number one.
At this moment, countless Chinese people felt proud.
We are not a backward nation. Our nation’s heritage gave birth to great scientific figures like Li Qiwei.
National self-confidence has been unprecedentedly improved.
(Hey, I wrote it, changed it, deleted it, and finally deleted it all. As long as everyone knows the meaning, it’s really difficult to grasp the situation. Please don’t touch it in China in the future)
——
In the West, they have no national empathy.
General relativity has entered a rational research stage.
In the world of physics, relativity and quantum theory are the two pillars of modern physics.
Now the theory of relativity is perfect, just like Newton's mechanical system.
It is a logically self-consistent theory.
Quantum theory still has various problems and needs to continue to develop.
Therefore, the importance of relativity goes far beyond quantum theory.
Therefore, the study of relativity, especially the study of general relativity, has become the hottest research direction at present.
Many people even have a hint of unrealistic fantasy and want to prove that the general theory of relativity has problems, just like the original special theory of relativity.
Once successful, the sensation caused is simply unimaginable.
However, they can only think that even understanding the paper is a problem for the time being.
Now, everyone's only goal is to verify the general theory of relativity.
Among them, astronomers are probably the most excited group of people.
They don't care whether a theory is correct or not, that's a matter for physicists.
The five major predictions are the lifeblood of astronomers.
July 30, 1912.
London, the first International Union of Astronomy Congress was held here, and it was held urgently.
Astronomers from all over the world gathered together.
The theme of this conference is: General Relativity and its five predictions.
All the astronomers who came to the meeting were excited.
The older generation began to sigh:
"It has been many years since the astronomy community has never been so prosperous."
"The last time Neptune was discovered through the law of universal gravitation."
“What a glorious time those were for astronomy.”
"I hope this conference can become as famous as the Bruce Conference and the Solvay Conference."
"This is the Olympics of our astronomical community!"
Many people nodded after hearing this. I agree, and my heart is full of pride.
From today on, astronomy will never be the same again.
At this moment, the auditorium was crowded. Looking around, there were at least several hundred people.
Sitting in the front row were all big names in astronomy.
They were smiling and talking casually, looking extremely comfortable and relaxed.
Eddington and Schwarzschild were sitting in the crowd, and their seats were right next to each other.
After a simple exchange, the source of their relationship turned out to be Bruce.
Eddington was related to Bruce through Thomson, and Schwarzschild was related to Bruce through Laue.
As a result, the two hit it off immediately.
Eddington smiled and said: "Professor Bruce is really the hub of the scientific world, everyone is related to him."
Schwarzschild also smiled: "Haha, yes. , I never thought that we would get together because of physics."
When Eddington heard this, he was filled with emotion and said with a smile: "Schwarzschild, I am not afraid of your jokes."
“Do you know what my reaction was when I read the general theory of relativity for the first time?”
Schwarzschild turned his head and looked at his newly made friend with a smile on his face and motioned for him to continue.
Eddington recalled the fanatical memories and said excitedly:
“When I saw the five major prophecies, I screamed out with excitement.”
< br>“God, no one can understand my mood at that time.”
“It’s like, it’s like all my efforts in this life are just to wait for that moment.”
"The general theory of relativity was born for me!"
"I was so excited that I didn't sleep for three days and three nights."
"Because I found that I seemed to be able to explain the first prediction, and also It’s just the bending of light.”
“Oh my God, I still remember that feeling.”
“At that moment, there were only various formulas in my mind, nothing else. Something.”
"I didn't come back to my senses until my stomach growled."
As Eddington talked, he fell into memories and completely forgot about Schwarzschild next to him.
Because he has found a way to prove the first prophecy.
This method is related to the method he invented at the Greenwich Observatory to record the positions of celestial bodies.
That’s why he felt that Prime Minister was a gift from fate to him.
It seemed like a theory tailor-made for him.
Eddington had wild imaginations.
Schwarzschild looked at the handsome young man in front of him. He did not feel that the other man was proud or showing off.
Even those excited reactions and actions were within his understanding.
Because he himself had the same reaction.
The moment he saw the general theory of relativity, his heart felt like a storm, and his performance was not much better than Eddington.
You know, not long ago, he was thinking about astronomy with Laue and others.
Even Laue's friends imagined a wonderful celestial body.
However, compared with Bruce's black hole, this kind of celestial body is like a child playing house.
Schwarzschild was shocked.
There is someone in this world who actually realizes his dream.
Special celestial bodies existing in the universe are predicted only through derivation of theoretical formulas.
It raises astronomy to a new level.
Even an International Union of Astronomical Congress was held urgently.
This shows how much influence general relativity has on astronomy.
It is almost as important as Newtonian mechanical system to physics.
At that moment, Schwarzschild’s admiration and respect for Li Qiwei reached its peak.
I admire him because he is a great figure comparable to Newton and is worthy of the envy of all people in the scientific field.
And respect is because Li Qiwei realized his dream.
If Schwarzschild knew the word "confidant", he must have thought that Li Qiwei was his soul confidant.
No words can describe his joy when he saw the general theory of relativity.
If it weren’t for the fact that he felt older, maybe Eddington would be hooking up with each other and having a good time over wine now.
"Eddington, I can understand your mood."
"My initial reaction was similar to yours."
"And it is estimated that everyone present is the same as us. Same.”
"The shock that general relativity has brought to astronomy is really great."
After hearing Schwarzschild's words, Eddington withdrew from his memories.
He sighed: "Yes, astronomy has evolved since then."
"We have our own theoretical weapons."
The two looked at each other and smiled. , and then looked forward together. At this moment, the venue gradually became quiet.
A young man stepped onto the podium.
At a conference that brought together the world's top astronomers, the opening speech was given by a young boy.
However, the strange thing is that no one in the entire venue spoke out against it.
Everyone even looked impatient.
It was as if it was natural for the other person to stand there.
This young man standing in front of many big guys is Hubble.
Bruce's only student currently is not his doctoral student, but he is almost there.
Everyone present knew that Hubble studied astronomy from Bruce.
Many people here laughed at Hubble.
Think there's something wrong with his brain.
No matter how great Bruce is, he is still in the field of physics. In astronomy, he is still a little green.
However, the facts slapped me in the face.
Bruce dominated the entire astronomy community with just one paper.
The five major prophecies are like five suns, shining in the sky of astronomy, waiting for mortals to study.
Hubble also instantly changed from a fool in the eyes of others to a very independent young man.
Hubble today is very high-spirited.
To exaggerate, he is Li Qiwei’s doppelgänger in astronomy, or astronomy walk for short.
Even in such an occasion, he did not feel nervous at all, but appeared to be at ease.
Because his teacher is Bruce!
That man like an eagle!
He was flying high in the physics sky, overlooking all the creatures on the land.
When he flaps his wings, the air flow he brings can cause a Category 18 hurricane below.
He is the king of the sky, the god of physics, and the controller of world order.
With such a teacher, Hubble's vision has already transcended.
Although there is an old man in astronomy here, he has full confidence.
I will surpass everyone and lead astronomy to the next era.
Now, he is full of energy and speaks powerfully.
“Hello everyone, I am very honored to have the opportunity to stand here and speak.”
“Before I give my speech, I want to tell you some good news.”
"That's why Professor Bruce told me that he would make astronomy one of his research fields."
"And it is one of the new subdivisions, which he named: cosmology."
Boom!
There was a burst of exclamation from the audience.
Everyone was shocked by what Hubble said.
Cosmology!
What a vast spirit.
Just by hearing this name, you can know Bruce's grand ambition.
He wants to have the entire universe at his fingertips.
That overbearing figure seemed to envelope the entire venue at this moment.
Everyone was out of breath.
"God, is this the strength of Bruce? It's so terrifying!"
"He actually wants to forcefully open up a branch of astronomy."
"We haven't even understood the Milky Way yet, and he is going to study cosmology."
"Cosmology, cosmology, there are people who study the universe as a whole."
Eddington and Schwarzschild in the crowd, their eyes sparkled.
Bruce's behavior made them feel strong motivation.
They can finally compete with the world’s leading scientific figure in the field of astronomy!
What a hearty battle!
Hubble looked at everyone's reactions, with a smile on his lips and a sigh at the same time.
"Without Professor Bruce, I'm afraid I wouldn't be qualified to stand here in another twenty years."
He was very glad that he did not give up astronomy and choose physics.
In that case, Professor Bruce would probably look down on him, he is just a young man who likes to take advantage of opportunities.
He persisted, and the future was a bright future.
Soon, he calmed down his emotions and continued:
"The so-called cosmology is the study of large-scale structures in the universe."
"At least it is based on galaxies."
"Oh, by the way, I can insert a message, Professor Bruce said that he supports the universe island theory. "
"He believes that our universe cannot have only one galaxy, but there are countless galaxies."
"That's why he proposed the universe. The concept of learning ”
boom!
Everyone in the venue was shocked again.
Bruce has not yet officially entered astronomy, but he has already begun to give predictions.
It is also the biggest controversial issue in astronomy today.
He is so crazy that there is no limit to it.
However, no one present dared to stand up and object.
Because countless facts have proven that Professor Bruce’s predictions are never wrong.
The only ones who are wrong are ordinary people like them.
"God, is this the first scientific person in the world? He even understands astronomy so deeply."
"I really can't imagine that Professor Bruce is so young, what on earth is he doing? Those who know this knowledge.”
"He has been studying general relativity for the past ten years. How can he have time to study other subjects?"
"You don't understand this. For a legendary figure like Professor Bruce, he studies One day is equivalent to one year of study for us.”
“No matter how difficult it is, physics can’t be achieved.”
“Let’s accept the gap between man and God, no matter how big it is. Most of them are normal.”
“.”
Li Qiwei's domineering power was once again deeply felt by everyone.
At this time, Hubble continued:
“Professor Bruce thinks so about the five major predictions of general relativity.”
“Light bending, black holes, and the universe Inflation, in our time, should have the opportunity to prove it.”
“But the two concepts of gravitational redshift and gravitational waves need to continue to develop.”
"In other words, general relativity transcends the times, and its proof is destined to be a long process."
Wow!
The audience was instantly in uproar.
Hubble’s few short words seemed as if Bruce was personally present.
Everyone felt the domineering, confident, overwhelming, and arrogant momentum.
Bruce actually said that his theory was ahead of its time.
To fully prove the five predictions, the current theoretical level and technical level are not qualified.
This is so arrogant that it breaks through the sky.
At this moment, everyone present realized what it means to be confident.
It’s like an old cow flying on a plane, so awesome.
"Is this the legendary Professor Bruce?"
"Why do I feel that he has already become so oppressive even before he starts studying astronomy."
"When he really starts studying it , It is estimated that astronomy will undergo earth-shaking changes."
"The world is nothing, Professor Bruce is the man who wants to control the universe."
The younger generation in the audience are almost crazy. .
This kind of temperament is simply in line with the tastes of European and American young people.
It means being eclectic and breaking authority.
The astronomy experts in the front row could only sigh.
They really wanted to show Bruce some color, but after careful consideration, they found that they were powerless.
If you fail to keep the lessons learned, you will be slapped in the face.
The next meeting will be about Hubble's insights into cosmology.
For example, how broad phase is used in cosmology.
The impact of the five predictions on the future development of astronomy, etc.
Everyone was fascinated by what he heard.
Hubble has a very high perspective because of Li Qiwei.
It gave the big guys present a refreshing and yet unfamiliar feeling.
Soon, the 45-minute speech ended, and thunderous applause erupted in the venue.
Not only to Hubble, but also to all astronomers present.
The future of astronomy is destined to be bright!
During the meeting, Eddington and Schwarzschild took the initiative to contact Hubble.
The three of them talked happily.
Eddington’s research direction is the movement of celestial bodies, so his goal is prediction one: the bending of light, and he already has a method to prove it.
Schwarzschild has a strong mathematical foundation, so his goal is prediction three: black holes. He wants to tear apart the Bruce field equation.
Of course Hubble studies cosmology, so his goal is prediction five: the expansion of the universe.
He decided to study the expansion of the universe starting from the motion laws of large-structure celestial bodies.
The three of them no longer have a competitive relationship, so they can talk more freely.
First there was a business exchange, and then they started chatting about the future of literature.
At this moment, no one knows that there are two young people here and a middle-aged man.
What a shock these three will bring to astronomy.
And all these shocks are just the tip of the iceberg of general relativity.
Broad phase was destined to dominate the rest of physics.
I don’t know how long.
