Reborn and become a Great Scientist

Because human nature is eccentric and good sentences are written, it will never stop until death if the words are not shocking.

Dirac on the side couldn't understand German very well, and he barely heard a few words like "...the theory of relativity...is wrong."

As for Einstein, whose native language is German, after hearing what Chen Muwu said, he was completely shocked. Every muscle on his face that could control his expression was filled with incredulity.

How could Einstein not know that just now Chen Muwu nominally asked Dirac to test a question, but he described the question in German throughout the whole process, clearly speaking to himself.

As he gradually understood this problem, Einstein felt that Chen Muwu had finally discovered the error in quantum mechanics - although he had not helped much - and he would immediately give up this fallacy and return to physics. Research is on the right track.

result……

Einstein felt as if he was skiing in Innsbruck in winter. He finally climbed to a high point on a ridge, and then with a "whoosh" sound, he slipped down from the high place of the Alps in a few seconds. Come down.

"It's not that quantum mechanics is wrong, but that relativity is wrong..."

Did he eat the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard?

How dare you say such words in front of me?

I used to like Chen Muwu, but why has he become like this now?

This young man!

Einstein was so angry at Chen Muwu's last words that every beard on his lips was trembling.

Looking at Chen Muwu opposite, he still looked innocent after his plot was successful, and even had a slight smile on his face.

He said unhurriedly: "Professor Einstein, I know you are in a hurry, but please don't be anxious yet.

“This contradiction between quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity is not a problem that I came up with suddenly, but something that I have vaguely noticed recently.

"In fact, I not only found such a contradiction, I have been designing and perfecting an experiment for this contradiction in my brain.

"In the future, we only need to pass this experiment to see what the results are, and we will know whether the two particles of quantum mechanics can allow information to propagate at a speed exceeding the speed of light."

Einstein's eyes widened even more.

The Cavendish Laboratory of Cambridge University, Rutherford of the Cavendish Laboratory, is really harmful.

Who is right and who is wrong between quantum mechanics and relativity? Is there still a need to design experiments on this issue?

It is obviously something that anyone can see at a glance as long as they are not a fool or a lunatic.

Besides, how should we design an experiment for such an abstract question?

People can now convert invisible particles into visible things and conduct observations by using the cloud chamber designed by Wilson, the winner of this year's Nobel Prize in Physics.

It is not yet known whether it is feasible to use a cloud chamber to observe a pair of particles that are related to each other.

The key is that there is another point, that is, how can we construct such a bunch of interconnected particles?

When Chen Muwu described the situation to Einstein, the latter regarded it as a thought experiment, so he felt that it was understandable.

But Einstein didn't expect that Chen Muwu actually wanted to implement the thought experiment and actually do it in the laboratory!

Einstein was already starting to want to spit on people.

"Professor, I know what you want to say. Please listen to me first.

"I can design a specific idea for this experiment, but I cannot design the entire experimental process. Because there are some technologies that our current experimental physicists have not yet mastered.

"Maybe one day in the future, we or our descendants will overcome the technical difficulties in this area," we may be able to conduct this experiment in the laboratory.

"Let me talk about my ideas in detail..."

Chen Muwu no longer hid it, but went straight to the point. He told Einstein about the hidden variable theory, and then deduced the "Bell inequality" which can now be called "Chen's inequality".

He also immediately stated the experimental design ideas to verify whether Bell's inequality is correct or not.

However, Chen Muwu really couldn't do this experiment in the Cavendish Laboratory, the best physics laboratory in the world.

Limitations come from various aspects, such as experimental equipment, experimental techniques, and how to observe experimental results, etc.

In the original time and space, physicists only began to try to design and conduct experiments in the 1982s, and it was not until that quantum entanglement was achieved in the laboratory for the first time, which was scornfully called "ghost" by Einstein. That experimental phenomenon of "like action at a distance".

It is now more than half a century ahead of that time.

Let alone one Chen Muwu, even ten Chen Muwu or a hundred Chen Muwu would never be able to carry out this experiment in the Cavendish Laboratory.

After listening to Chen Muwu talk about the experimental principles and ideas for more than half an hour, Einstein felt a little dizzy as almost all the brain cells in his brain were functioning.

He didn't understand that from the thought experiment proposed by Chen Muwu at the beginning, he could intuitively realize that quantum mechanics could not explain this matter in this entangled two-particle system.

Why does Chen Muwu still insist that he is right and insist on designing experiments to verify this?

Einstein had to admit that the concept of the inequality proposed by Chen Muwu was very clever, but what was the use of being clever?

Aren’t the experimental results visible at a glance?

He still had to wait there for others to do experiments!

Then we can only hope that he himself, or the younger boys and girls after him, can carry out this experiment and make Chen Muwu completely speechless and admit his mistake.

Einstein had even thought about how he should comfort the frustrated Chen Muwu while feeling secretly happy after the experimental results came out.

"Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. Look at me, didn't I admit my mistakes quickly when someone pointed out that the universe is not static but dynamic?

“But I didn’t wallow in failure and refuse to take another step forward.

"So don't be discouraged, adjust yourself quickly, and continue to explore the mysteries of the universe with us, especially how to combine the two forces." Thinking about it, Einstein's picture was still there just now A smile suddenly appeared on his angry face.

Chen Muwu had long understood the emotional changes in Einstein's heart. He did not expose Einstein, who was so happy that he wanted to raise his tail to the sky. Instead, he pretended not to know anything and went there quietly. "Ask" for his advice.

"Professor Einstein, what do you think of the inequality I just deduced from this, and the experiment designed based on the inequality?"

"I think...well, it still has some merits, right?"

Einstein responded very politely. Just because Chen Muwu gave him a big gift does not mean that he agreed. Just because he was happy did not mean that he wanted to show it. It did not mean that he had certain merits. It did not mean that he agreed.

But I have to say that inequalities are so easy to use sometimes. No wonder Chen Muwu likes them.

"Then I will take advantage of the few days left for the Solvay meeting to summarize what we discussed tonight, including the entanglement effect between two particles, my inequality, and my design based on the inequality. What do you think of this experiment, compiled into a paper?

"Professor Planck happened to be here to attend this conference. I can give the paper to him and ask him to publish it in the journal Annals of Physics and distribute it to physicists around the world.

"We hope that physicists around the world can respond to our call and try to do this experiment to verify whether the inequality is correct or wrong, and to verify that information transmission between two entangled particles can exceed the speed of light. Right or wrong.”

"You can do whatever you want, I have no objection to that."

Not opposing does not mean supporting.

"Then when the paper is finally published, can you put your name on it, professor? I will show it to you as soon as the first draft is completed."

signature……

It's not impossible.

If he hadn't been challenging Chen Muwu on the correctness of quantum mechanics for so many years, he most likely would not have realized his mistake, at least not so quickly.

Einstein felt that Chen Muwu finally found this way to deny the uncertainty principle, and he should have contributed a lot, and he could have half of his military medals.

"It's getting late, Professor Einstein, I saw our conversation, if you don't want to go, why don't you come here first?"

"I will try to write the first draft of the paper in the next two days. Then on the third day we will discuss it to see if we can make some modifications. On the last day, we will hand over the final draft to Professor Planck. How about that?"

"Just do as you say."

Einstein nodded, stood up from the sofa, took off the coat and hat hanging on the hanger, and left the room where Chen Muwu and Dirac lived.

After waiting in the corridor and confirming that Chen Muwu, who had just sent him out, had not followed him, Einstein couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He hummed a tune from his hometown, walked back to his house, and said hello to Plank in the room.

"Good evening, Professor Planck!"

It is rare to see Einstein looking so unstable on weekdays. Sitting behind the desk, Planck asked with some confusion: "Albert, did you go to a bar to drink after the dinner?" A few beers?”

"No, no, no, I just encountered something that made me happy."

He briefly introduced the ins and outs of tonight's evening and even his fight with Chen Muwu on quantum mechanics over the years to Planck.

Planck had very complicated feelings towards the young man Chen Muwu. He expressed regret that he could not recruit him to the University of Berlin, and he was also grateful that he had been contributing to the "Annals of Physics".

But overall, he still admires Chen Muwu most.

Although Planck did not agree with Chen Muwu's statement, he supported the nonsense that the theory of relativity is wrong, which is impossible as long as you use your brain to think about it.

But he couldn't see Einstein becoming so happy just because he caught Chen Muwu's slightest mistake.

He admonished insinuatingly: "Everyone makes mistakes. Although Dr. Chen is smarter than others, he is not immune. I think he is not in a good mood now. In this case, Albert You should not gloat about his misfortune, but should provide him with more help and guidance."

"Of course I know, Professor Planck, what I have been doing over the years is to help and guide, but it is only today that these efforts have finally seen results.

"By the way, Professor, Chen said that before the end of the Solvay Conference, he will give you a paper he wrote and ask you to publish it in the "Annals of Physics"."

"What is it about? Why not publish it in your Journal of Physics?"

"This is the content of the series of experiments he told me tonight. According to the publication process of the "Journal of Physics", this paper will be handed over to several reviewers for review, and then finally published. In the magazine. This process was too slow, so I told him that it would be better to publish it in the yearbook."

Obviously what Chen Muwu said at the beginning was to be published in the yearbook, but Einstein changed his words.

In fact, he couldn't wait to have Chen Muwu's paper made public as soon as possible. Compared with the paper, Einstein believed that this was more like a confession, acknowledging the mistakes Chen Muwu had made in quantum mechanics before.

I don’t know what the expressions and mentality of Eddington, Bohr and others who once vowed to support him will be like after seeing this paper.

Einstein, who returned to his room, was a little gloating, and the same was true for Chen Muwu.

Dirac listened to the two people's German and had only a half-understanding. He asked Chen Muwu for a long time before he roughly understood the whole story.

"So, Chen, have you really been persuaded by Professor Einstein that you think the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics is wrong, and are you going to give up on this idea?"

Chen Muwu shook his head: "No, no, no, I think this principle is not wrong at all. I am still looking forward to one day being able to conduct this experiment in the laboratory and vindicate Zhaoxue for me!"

"But from the perspective of an onlooker, you and Professor Einstein seem to be admitting a mistake by saying this, making him feel that the uncertainty principle is wrong."

"This is exactly what I want to achieve. Since Professor Einstein thinks this is wrong and the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics has been overturned, from now on, he will not meet or correspond with me every time. Sometimes, I always mention quantum mechanics and then become chatty. Isn’t that bad?”
