Generally speaking, this is just a formality. With a few exceptions in history, any wizard who is nominated can obtain the corresponding honor.
But this time it was a little different, because there was a very important theory of magic that had been pending, that was the quantum theory proposed by Magic Star Linn! If it was correct, then he would surely win a Corona Medal in one fell swoop...
No, even the Corona Medal is not worthy of its status, because that means the entire foundation of magic must be torn down and rebuilt! It is precisely because quantum theory completely violates their previous logic and magic theory that most wizards are unwilling to believe it is true, and try to find evidence through experiments to prove that this theory is extremely absurd.
Lin En once explained in detail the principle of the thermal field electron emission gun, and there are many great wizards who can replicate it.
However, this spontaneous research competition was extremely brutal. In just one week, eight of the more than sixty great wizards who were deeply researching the quantum field had gone crazy! That's right, eight people went crazy in seven days!
One great wizard was so angry that he fainted.
His research project is how to capture an electron.
As a staunch supporter of particle theory, the great wizard Morey believes that if he can capture an electron and put it in a palm-sized special container, he can prove that particle theory is the absolute truth! If he encounters opponents, he will "show" it and say - look, the electron I captured is right there, it is a particle! This is not difficult in imagination, because Lin En's thermal field electron launcher has given a method to create a single electron. All he needs to do is to catch one of the electrons! As for the things that restrict electrons, Morey originally planned to use the gravitational field to capture them, but with the great wizard's force field magic level, he can't trap such a microscopic thing at all, so he can only use the electromagnetic field as a second choice! However, it is not so easy to actually put it into practice. After failing hundreds of times, Morey finally made this trap. It took several days, and under a certain luck burst and full observation, he barely trapped an electron in it.
Then Morey excitedly called thousands of wizards to appreciate his masterpiece together!
However, when everyone arrived, he suddenly discovered that the electron he had "captured" with great difficulty was gone!
It just disappeared out of thin air in this cage that was supposed to trap electrons.
No one knows the reason, but there is no doubt that this electronics exhibition has become a complete joke. Morey's luck has run out, and his on-the-spot demonstration of capturing electrons has repeatedly ended in failure. In the end, he suspected that this thing was deliberately playing a trick on him.
In front of the crowd, a farce was staged. Morey, who was humiliated, fainted on the spot and has not woken up yet...
"Morley's electron" has also become another substantial proof of the weirdness of the quantum field. To this day, no one knows whether the electron trapped in the trap actually exists.
His fate was actually considered good. Some wizards who had conducted in-depth research on the wave-particle duality directly lost the ability to cast spells.
In view of these bloody lessons, Parliament had to issue an emergency statement to stop all current quantum experiments.
Lynn also suggested through Magic Daily that all future research in the microscopic field must be conducted under appropriate guidance, so as to avoid blindly thinking alone and getting into a dead end.
Suddenly, a new term spread in the Magic Kingdom: Don't overestimate your own abilities! It means never research quantum mechanics on your own!
This is simply a monopoly on the right to speak on knowledge!
When Lynn led Johnny, Alok and others to the venue, they saw a group of great wizards who were excited and ready to debate with him at any time.
"Please stay, Speaker Lin!" Great Wizard Jeffrey was the first to block Lin's way and said very respectfully. "This week, I have read your latest paper [The World of Probability - Quantum Mechanics], and I have many questions I would like to hear your answers to."
"Of course, no problem!" Lynn nodded and said freely.
"Since microscopic particles have wave-particle duality and uncertainty, do macroscopic objects composed of microscopic particles have the same properties?" Jeffrey's question was very sharp.
In his opinion, this is the biggest "loophole" in quantum probability theory! If the properties of quantum are really so chaotic, then wouldn't things made up of microscopic particles be even more chaotic?
However, the reality is not like this. Real matter is very stable and will never disappear just because they don’t see it!
"Of course... yes!" Lynn answered decisively.
"Since there isn't, how can you prove it..." Jeffrey was about to continue talking, but soon realized that what the Magic Star said seemed to be yes, not no! The other wizards who were waiting for Lin En to deny it also had a look of surprise on their faces. It took them a while to come to their senses, and they immediately showed an extremely surprised look on their faces.
"Since you said that macroscopic matter also has fluctuations, are we also fluctuating?" A wizard sneered and said. "Excuse me, you can't even give a real example, Speaker Linn!"
"Indeed, it is not easy to give an example. That's because the wave nature of macroscopic matter is not obvious and is very small compared to its mass." Lynn nodded first, and then, without waiting for the excited Jeffrey and others to open their mouths to argue, he spoke with a smile.
"Any macroscopic element, even at the atomic level, is made up of a large number of microscopic particles. I believe you have already demonstrated through experiments that microscopic particles can influence each other."
"You mean that because they are influencing and interfering with each other, their shapes are frozen? They show the characteristics of particles? The larger the mass, the more stable the state?" Arad said in surprise.
"That's not a wrong understanding." Lin En pointed it out. The essence of energy interference is actually wave superposition.
This involves the theory of quantum entanglement, and Lin En did not intend to elaborate on it. He looked at the wizard who had spoken before and said with a smile, "I can't give you the example you mentioned, but to calculate your wavelength, you only need a formula!"
