Throne of Magical Arcana

Vol 6 Chapter 76: Determinism

Alas, Fernando in the study heard a gentle knock on the door. !

"So early?" Fernando stared at Lucian with a slightly hazy red eye, and suddenly had a subconscious alert and alert to his abnormality.

Lucian lowered his head and smiled, "It was just after the paper was written that the sun was rising, so we came straight."

"What thesis?" Fernando even had a more dangerous premonition. This was not from the destiny star, but a "crystallization of wisdom" that has repeatedly condensed in the same situation. "Is it subversive?"

Lucien thought for a while and nodded affirmatively: "Yes, but only from the observation of a large number of experimental results, there is no rigorous proof, and it does not rule out that it will be overturned or covered by other theories that include these observations."

"Come here." Fernando breathed a sigh of relief, so that no more subversive theories could break his head until the decisive arguments proved.

Lucien pulled out a paper and handed it over. Fernando's expression immediately looked bad when he looked at the subject.

"The Probabilistic Interpretation of Wave Function." He read the title of this paper word by word, faintly guessing what was inside. Since this time, a lot of experiments such as electron scattering and diffraction that he has done seem to be showing The reality that Oliver's interpretation of the wave function cannot match some experimental results seems to be explaining something.

Looking at the paper, Fernando read without a word, the surrounding atmosphere became more and more depressed, as if a substantial storm was coming.

Suddenly, before looking up the thesis, he looked up, with countless electric lights flashing in his red eyes, and it was extremely dangerous and authentic: "Do you mean that the wave function is not a wave in the normal sense, but a probability wave?"

Lucien greeted the teacher's dangerous gaze without fear: "Yes, by observing a large number of experimental results, and by introducing the content of Chloe statistics in the field of molecular motion, we can describe the wave function in this way, which is characterized by electrons Probability of appearing somewhere in space. "

Fernando seemed to be suppressing great anger: "The probability that it has a certain position on the receiving screen is 100%!"

There is no doubt that every arcanist has seen the experimental phenomenon that the fluorescent dots are excited after the electrons are emitted onto the induction screen. Its position is certain and certain.

Lucien could understand the teacher ’s mood and said very seriously: "For example, we toss a coin without knowing the external conditions. In the whole process, we can only say that it may prove to be positive, but when it After falling to the ground, the result has been determined, and there will be no change. The probability is naturally 100%. We are talking about electrons before observation, not electrons that have been determined after observation. "

In this case, Fernando better understands the emotions and eases slightly, and grasps the key points: "Before observation? After observation? Then before we observe, according to your interpretation, electrons may appear at any position in space, just a certain Are they more likely to appear? "

He couldn't imagine the existence of electrons at all!

For coins, Fernando can accept it without hindrance. It is the front and back that are constantly changing, which makes it possible to land differently. However, since electrons describe the probability of space position, it is possible anywhere. This is not to say At the same time, it may be here, or it may be everywhere?

It's ridiculous and absurd than any magic!

At least so far, no magician can create such a magic, so that he exists in a similar state except the god-like level that cannot be known!

Lucien made an analogy: "Before observation, electrons are like a cloud of illusion without entities. It permeates space everywhere. It is the thicker part of all possible superposition states. It is the comparison of the probability of its appearance. Large location, but it does not mean that after observation, it will definitely appear here. "

"Before observing, electrons are things we can't imagine, they are contradictions of wave-particle duality and unified monsters, so we can't imagine their state with the original concept. This is meaningless. We can only learn from the fact that we can The results of rigorous validation experiments are described. "

Fernando pressed his lips tightly, as if he spoke, it was a roar.

Lucien goes further: "Actually, you should have observed it through magic experiments. When we improve the magic array and reduce the number of emitted electrons at a time, we can see that the first thing to appear is not a diffracted image, but a random electron. The induced light spot gradually forms a diffraction image as the number of electrons increases. Why? "

"This is because it is impossible to know exactly where a single electron appears after it is diffracted. It is a probability. We can only describe that it may appear larger here, so a small number of electrons will appear in a disordered state, but after the number is large enough, the whole It fits the probability distribution. In some places, there are many electrons, and in other places, there are few electrons, so the light and dark are mixed and a diffraction image appears. "

"It ’s like tossing a coin seven or eight times, we ca n’t accurately predict in advance how many times the coin is headed up, but when the number of toss has reached hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, the number of heads up should be half about!"

"If we could one day improve the magic array to emit only one electron at a time, things would be clearer."

"Probability, probability!" Fernando's expression was a bit distorted, as if eating probability.

He didn't need Lucien to explain the common sense of probability to himself. This is one of the fields in thermodynamics that he knows best and is best at. At this time, he emerged that the electron diffraction experiments done during this time are indeed like Lu! In other words, until the number of electrons is not enough, the light spots are disorganized.

This clear picture made his hands tremble slightly, and the surrounding wind was blowing, blowing the paper in the study room: "Before observation, the probability is that the electrons are diffused in the space? After observation, it has certainty Location matter? What happened in between? "

Lucien turned a blind eye to the wind, calmly like the death of the sentence: "The wave function collapsed, and the diffused probability cloud collapsed into a small spot with a certain position. Observation caused the wave function to collapse. Before observing, the electrons were What form has nothing to do with us, it has no meaning! "

"Observation caused the wave function to collapse?" Paw, a flash of lightning lit up in the study, destroyed a statue Fernando stood up sharply, and looked at Lucian aggressively. "Our observation, has the electron changed its form? "

Lucien nodded: "Teacher, what are the means of our observation? Seeing things is because of reflected light, hearing sound, because of the ripples of air vibrations, and in the microscopic field, even the slightest means of observation, such as Photons also perturb electrons, which means that our observations of microscopic particles will inevitably cause changes. "

"Interaction between microscopic particles?" Fernando's face was slightly better, and he probably understood why observing would cause the wave function to collapse. As for the previous probability cloud, which was incomprehensible and unthinkable, he decided to ignore it for the time being and point directly to Lucien probability. The core of the interpretation, "the activity of tossing a coin can be determined strictly by knowing the various external conditions, so it is not a true probability, but a pseudo probability has a cause and a result. All initial states are strictly and uniquely determined. In the end, this is the basis of the astrology and the basis of the entire arcane and magic! "

"The probability exhibited by the electron is also a pseudo-probability, and is it affected by external conditions that we have not yet discovered?"

His voice trembled, and there were more and more signs in the study that the storm was about to begin.

Lucian shook his head firmly: "At least there is currently no phenomenon that shows the influence of external conditions. For the time being, we can only say that probability waves are the essential properties of electrons, and the nature of intrinsics!"

"You say it again!" Fernando finally growled, and lightning and thunder began to appear, creating a scene in the study like the end of the day.

The reason why arcane and magic is fascinating and explore the real world. The reason why generations of magicians and arcanists pay their youth, talent and life is because they believe that the world has an essential law, everything is governed by this law. Strictly running, such as the sun rising to the west, such as celestial movement, such as wind and rain, such as biological growth, such as elemental reactions, such as the mystery of matter, such as the atomic structure, and as long as you understand the laws of the essence, you can truly grasp they!

Now, Lucien's interpretation of probability seems to be laughing at this kind of exploration, because the nature of the world is actually "probability". Even if you understand more of the world's laws and reach the limit of life, you can only predict that electrons will appear here. Is most likely to describe exactly where it will appear.

This negates the basis of astrological predictions! Also denied the basis of the arcane and magic exploring the laws of the world!

Lucian pointed at the thesis and looked at the growling teacher seriously, because the lightning crackled and fell, his elemental skin was naturally inspired: "There is a relevant explanation in the thesis."

Fernando bowed his head and looked at a section of the paper:

"In the past, we believed that as long as we knew all the current factors, we could strictly deduce or determine the outcome of things, what the reasons are, what the outcomes are, and this process is reversible, that is, What kind of result is there is what kind of reason, Arcanist called this respect determinism, law of cause and effect.

"I like to define it more strictly. The true law of cause and effect is the law of cause and effect on the timeline. The cause must be before the result, so the general law of cause and effect before is best only called determinism."

"And now, what I want to make clear is that maybe there is something wrong with determinism."

"What's wrong with determinism? What's wrong with the law of cause and effect?" Fernando looked at Lucien with a storm in his eyes, and roared loudly in the roar of thunder. "Tell me, is the sun's trajectory a probability?"

Bang!

"You tell me ~ www.readwn.com ~ Is our own existence a probability?"

Bang!

"Tell me, even if we have built a magical spell model in our soul and fully grasped every detail of it, the mental strength is full, and magic is also a process of fighting probability."

"Ridiculous! Absurd!"

With thunder and lightning flying, there is a vast universe behind Lucien. The planet inside is composed of different color protons and neutrons, and the artificial planets surrounding them are permeated in space, everywhere. But when you look closely, they are sure at one point.

Rumble!

Thunder Hell is intertwined with the Atomic Universe, and Lucien's eyes flicker without staring at him with his teacher Fernando:

"At least in the microcosm, determinism must die!"

A thick lightning flashed across the sky and spread out the window.
