After I was reborn, I became a great writer

Chapter 370 String Dance!

(If you don't like ball lightning, you can skip this chapter!)

Ideals often become illusory because of the cruelty of reality, so is it worth pursuing?

I want to analyze it with a very thoughtful song from my previous life:
"Reality is like a rock, and ideal is like an egg. Although the rock is hard, the egg is life."

In the same way, if the end point of scientific research is falsehood, is persistence meaningful?

In this regard, Zhang Bin in the book told a story, saying that there was a manor owner who loved drinking, and one day he bought a bottle of fine wine salvaged from an ancient sunken ship from a merchant. in.

The businessman told him that there was actually another bottle, but he didn’t know where it was. The owner of the manor couldn’t bear the temptation of the wine, so he sold the manor and all his property, and wandered around the world to find the other bottle of wine.

After going through untold hardships, I found the old man from the young, and finally found it. After drinking the bottle of wine, I died holding the bottle.
In Zhang Bin's view, the manor owner is happy. At least he has no regrets. If he can see "ball lightning" again in his lifetime, he is willing to die.

Zhang Bin's students did not disappoint him. After Skynet's first experiment failed, Dr. Chen made a conjecture. Applying lightning protection paint to the helicopter might prevent the arc attack.

Zhang Bin once studied this kind of special paint, but Dr. Chen didn't want him to do it because he was already suffering from cancer at this time.

But Lin Yun immediately contacted Zhang Bin, so the terminally ill old professor came, and with his help, two helicopters covered with lightning protection materials took off successfully.

When "Skynet" streaked across the air, they finally saw the coveted "ball lightning" again!
But just seeing it, you can't capture it, but it's still worth celebrating!Because this is the first ball lightning inspired by humans!
Zhang Bin said happily: "I finally drank that bottle of wine, this life is enough."

"Chao Wendao, Xi can die!"

Beisi said in broken Chinese, this was what an old Taoist priest with white beard told him when he visited Huaxia to visit the gymnasium, and he remembered it clearly.

Besley now feels that the character of Zhang Bin is very similar to Ding Yi in "The Three-Body Problem". Thinking of Ding Yi, he hastily accelerated his reading speed.

After the ecstasy, there must be tragedy. An accident happened during the exploration. The ball lightning suddenly exploded next to the helicopter. Fortunately, the pilot managed to escape by parachuting.

The research is in a desperate situation. "Ball Lightning" has a supernatural mystery. We are all ordinary people. Even if we use more than ordinary people's efforts to inquire about it, it is impossible to catch it and make it into a lightning weapon for human beings. .

Dr. Chen once again thought of giving up, and the commander said, in this case, we should invite Superman.

This superman is Ding Yi!

Although Ding Yi was very young at this time, he was already a famous physicist and a philosopher with different ideas.

Out of curiosity, he decided to join the "Ball Lightning" project. After a few days of calculations, Ding Yi came up with a crazy idea. He thought that ball lightning can actually be seen with the naked eye, but it is like a transparent bubble. Not easy to detect.

Therefore, he wants to use superconducting wires to guide the unexcited ball lightning into the battery, store it like electric current, and then conduct research and observation.

Except for Lin Yun, everyone thought this was bullshit. How many bloody examples had proved that "it" could not be touched. This invited physics superman actually wanted to make a long pole of superconducting wires to stab a devil.

Isn't this a joke about everyone's life!
Only Lin Yun believed it. She thought that since conventional means of exploration would not work, it would be okay to try unconventional methods.

But the person in charge of the base directly refused, and even the pilots who were not afraid of sacrifice were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for an unconventional theory.

Lin Yun called the upper management, and she used her personal relationship to push this crazy plan.

Soldiers are bound to obey orders, they compromised
Before implementing the plan, Dr. Chen reminded again that it would be risking his life to test this hypothesis.

Lin Yun replied: Compared with what you want to get, it is worth it.

After speaking, she followed the pilot to board the plane.
"Hehe, you look more and more like Ye Wenjie! Lin Yun, no wonder Ding Yi praised you so much when he introduced you to others in "The Three-Body Problem", saying that you were the first woman he fell in love with. A girl with such a personality is amazing. Terrified and fascinated!"

Besley sighed.

To be honest, Lin Yun's approach is very extreme and domineering, but this is in the eyes of ordinary people. For a person like Besley who is used to "scenes", only such a person can accomplish great things.

He particularly agrees with Lin Yun's words, "Compared with what you want to get, it's worth it!"

Because behind the verification of every great idea, you need to pay the price of life, or even more.

Finally, the long pole pierced the devil, and without any danger, it turned into an electric current!

However, everyone did not see the transparent bubbles that Ding Yi said. Just when they were about to sneer, Ding Yi placed a chessboard on top of the current and magnetic field device, and a part of the small squares on the chessboard immediately deformed, and the deformed area A circle is clearly outlined.
Everyone's eyes widened, and they saw a crystal ball with extremely high transparency, which was ball lightning in an unexcited state!

So what is "it"?

It is actually an electron, an electron the size of a football. Different from the microscopic scale of the universe observed by Wang Miao in "Three-Body" (the basic matter that makes up the universe is microscopic), it is composed of particles on a macroscopic scale, that is, macroscopic particles. electronic!
Maybe in the sea of ​​stars in the sky above us, countless ghost-like macro-electrons are floating, maybe the macro-world formed by them is the parallel universe.

After successfully capturing the "ball lightning", the next thing is simple, just collect them.

In subsequent experiments, everyone involved in the study became obsessed with it.

It can easily burn experimental animals to ashes, or only burn the internal bones of animals, and vaporize the blood of animals without hurting any muscle tissue!

It can easily destroy all life forms in a city without damaging any buildings.
The ball lightning weapon unit was established, code-named "Morning Light". During the training, everyone discovered a very evil phenomenon.

When aiming at the target with eyes open, the weapon has a [-]% hit rate!

However, after aiming, closing the eyes, turning off the monitoring equipment, and then shooting, the hit rate was only one-tenth, and some "ball lightning" even struck at our own people.

Ding Yi’s explanation for this is the quantum effect of macro electrons, that is, when there is an observer, its state is a definite value, so it can hit the target. Without an observer, it becomes a quantum state, which is an uncertain state. Hitting targets has also become probabilistic.

In short, it is very metaphysical. If you want to hit the target, you have to look at "it".
Although the evil door is frightening, the application effect in the experiment is even more amazing. It can easily destroy the chip inside the tank, but the outer armor is intact.

In short, for the purposes of the study, we succeeded.

There are many principles described in these chapters, and even with Besley’s knowledge storage, it is very difficult to read, but fortunately, he can still understand it. After reading it, he had an idea.

"Should I spend part of the scientific research funds to study this? If there is such a weapon, then the United States will be a well-deserved world hegemon."

Of course, the thought was just a flash, it was too far-fetched.

In the next chapter, another vision appeared. When Dr. Chen passed by the test site, he could often hear sheep bleating. It was the experimental animals that were destroyed by "ball lightning", but they were obviously gone.
During the period, the Chenguang troops accepted a mission. A nuclear power plant was occupied by terrorists and took hostages. They installed explosives on the nuclear reactor. Once it detonated, it would be a disaster.

No one can guarantee that the terrorists will be dealt with before they detonate, and the hostages will be rescued, and the negotiations between the two sides have also come to no avail.

So a very real problem was put in front of everyone. With the characteristics of the "Ball Lightning" weapon, this group of people can be easily turned into ashes, but the hostages will also be turned into ashes. It cannot distinguish between good people and bad people.

In fact, everyone knows that even if "it" is not used, the hostages will still die and die from nuclear radiation, but no one dares to issue this attack order!
As the situation became more and more serious, finally Lin Yun gave the order.

In this way, the group of people all turned into dust, and the crisis was resolved. No one blamed Lin Yun!
However, Dr. Chen still submitted his resignation letter, which he could not accept. After leaving the institute, "ball lightning" became a matter for Ding Yi and Lin Yun. He never saw Lin Yun again, or in other words, never I have seen Lin Yun in flesh and blood.

"Yeah, you're another saint, and you're just a little bit stronger than Cheng Xin."

Besley curled his lips in disdain. He looked down on Dr. Chen. How can a big man be indecisive when doing things? It is Lin Yun's appetite for him.

But I don't like it, and I can't stand him as the leading actor. The next few chapters are still about Dr. Chen's story.

One late night, when Dr. Chen returned home, he was awakened by a voice. He saw that the computer he brought back had its chips burned by "ball lightning", emitting a strange blue light that filled the entire room. The light was dark and cold.
He thought of the long hair that had disappeared in the old house, Zheng Min's burning eyes in the photo, and the strange cry of sheep in the laboratory.

Surrounded by great fear again, he dialed Ding Yi's phone.

Because Ding Yi once said that if you encounter any problems after you go back, you can look for him.

Then Besley's guess was confirmed. Ding Yi said that all the people who died of ball lightning turned into a quantum state, maybe standing behind you and me.

However, we can never see them, because once we observe them, they immediately collapse into a state of destruction!
Miraculously, they can leave traces of non-quantum states in the real world under special probability, such as the vision seen by Dr. Chen.

This is a very strange state of life and death, in the words of Ding Yi in the book.

[For them, whether to live or die is indeed a question, and it must be a long and elusive time to find us in reality.]

If you have to use physics to explain it, it is similar to Schrödinger's cat (interested readers can read the author of the next chapter).

After the two drank another cup of Red Star Erguotou, they went home separately. No matter what, life must continue.

Dr. Chen continued to study projects that contributed to human peace, and Ding Yi continued to help Lin Yun make "ball lightning".

At this time, war broke out and the country was in crisis.

Under Lin Yun's many invitations to fight, Chenguang's troops finally dispatched again. They took 50 fishing boats to attack the aircraft carrier group of the enemy alliance.

Everyone was full of confidence and believed in their new weapons, but all the "ball lightning" shot deviated from the target.

There is a "shielding magnetic field!" on the aircraft carrier, and the enemy knows the existence of the "ball lightning" weapon and has established a defense system.

Maybe because of that nuclear power plant operation, maybe the enemy is also secretly researching.
But this is not important anymore, the operation failed, and the attacking Chenguang troops were wiped out. The commander of the troops, Lin Yun, found Ding Yi and made an even crazier request.

She asked Ding Yi to burn herself to death with ball lightning, and she would turn into a quantum warrior, attack the enemy fleet again, and detonate the aircraft carrier's fuel and ammunition depots.

Ding Yi rejected Lin Yun's proposal without even thinking about it, not to mention that after quantization, she is just a cloud of probability, and everything is uncertain. Whether she can get back to the real world is another matter, maybe after she finds it , the war is over!

Even if she finds her way home, if there is an enemy's gaze and the camera looks at her, she will turn into a probability cloud again.

After listening to the explanation, Lin Yun cried like a child for the first time.
Besley looked very distressed, as if he saw a thin little girl crying helplessly, wanting to vent out all the sadness in her life
He could understand Lin Yun's mood, as well as her crazy thoughts, just like he understood Ye Wenjie back then, she just didn't want to lose, and she didn't want the country to be occupied.

After the failure of the operation, Zhang Bin, the pioneer who studied "ball lightning", passed away. According to his wishes, the military held a funeral for him with ball lightning.

When the funeral participants dispersed, Ding Yi and Lin Yun stood quietly in front of the tombstone until dusk.

Finally Ding Yi stepped forward, wanting to clean up the weeds before leaving, but when he brushed past the tombstone, he was stunned.

A series of complicated equations suddenly appeared on the tombstone, and he suddenly understood something, read the inscription at an alarming speed, and recorded
The last line of the inscription is no longer an equation, but a graceful font.

【Bin, I'm so scared.】

It's Zheng Min!
Because someone observed, the inscription gradually disappeared.

Ding Yi woke up like a dream, he found the atomic nucleus!

If the ball lightning is a macro-electron, then it corresponds to the nucleus, which is more difficult to find than the macro-electron. The equation shown on the inscription just now can help them find this mysterious "string"!
Yes, not all nuclei are round, it is a string, like a transparent crystal snake, like a rope that cannot hang itself.

These thin, soft and transparent strings floating in the sky cannot be stimulated by external energy like ball lightning, and they don’t even feel when they pass through the human body. They only dance, dancing the dance of the macroscopic world.

And once its dance stops, the world will be destroyed with a bang!

Seeing this, Besley shivered all over. The key to a wonderful life in the book is what you can be obsessed with?
He just fell in love with the romance of the quantum state after the death of human beings, but in a blink of an eye Hongwen pulled him back to the abyss with a dance of strings.

It is true that Xian's dance looks beautiful, but there are more descriptions behind it.

Lin Yun asked, what's so scary about putting two strings together?
Ding Yi replied, think about what will happen if the two nuclei of our world are entangled together?
That's nuclear fusion, and the strings coming together are called macrofusion!Its energy is enough to destroy the entire human civilization!

Besley didn't see fear and shock from Lin Yun in the book, he saw this beautiful girl, he was excited like a child discovering a new toy!
ps: I'm sorry, it's too late to finish the ending of the last half of the chapter, so I can only put down the chapter, and the next chapter can proceed with the normal plot!It's so hard to write!Don't spray if you don't like it!

　Schrödinger's cat: It is a thought experiment proposed by the famous Austrian physicist Schrödinger, which refers to keeping a cat in an airtight container containing a small amount of radium and cyanide.The decay of radium has a probability. If the radium decays, the mechanism will be triggered to smash the bottle containing cyanide, and the cat will die; if the radium does not decay, the cat will survive.

　　According to the theory of quantum mechanics, since radioactive radium is in the superposition of decay and non-decay states, the cat should be in the superposition state of dead cat and live cat. This dead and alive cat is the so-called "Schrödinger's cat".
