Chapter 722 Brook's Expectations (Second Update)
"Thunder Hell", Fernando's Magic Tower.
As long as he was still in Alinge and nothing else bothered him, Lucian maintained the habit of communicating arcane and magic with his teacher once a week, but when he entered the teacher's study today, he unexpectedly saw Brooke, an old-school gentleman wearing a white hair cover.
Don't they always "like" to communicate with teachers face-to-face, and prefer to use the form of letters? Lucian thought to himself.
Brook didn't wait for Lucian to say hello, touched his golden-rimmed eyes, and smiled: "In recent days, your paper on the roots of magic has caused a lot of sensation in Alinge, and I have also gained a lot of inspiration from it.
Fernando next to him muttered: "The 'observer effect' is not a good thing, it will make the world unreal......"
Lucian smiled, his insistence on the reality of the world made it difficult for the teacher to have a good impression of the "observer effect", especially since this explanation did not have any strong evidence or strict deduction, it was just a whimsical horror "prophecy" of a great arcanist.
"Thank you, to be honest, I have just begun to explore this aspect myself, and there are still many debatable points in this paper, and the same is true for 'Negative Energy Vacuum Sea'." Lucian said very sincerely, believing that the teacher and Mr. Brooke could see it equally, and then, he deliberately changed the subject, "Teacher, Mr. Brooke, what are you discussing?"
Of course, it is best not to face the teacher's rant.
"I was very inspired by your previous ideas on the quantization of electromagnetic fields when you studied the problem of spontaneous radiation, and Annick and Splinter showed remarkable value in their similar treatment of the electron problem, so I would like to start from your idea of 'secondary quantization', thoroughly introduce quantum theory into the classical electromagnetic field theory, and construct a quantum field theory, so as to deeply explore electrons and photons and study the essence of electromagnetic force."
When it comes to the essence of electromagnetic force, Brooke's slightly emaciated half-old face seems to light up with a layer of brilliance, which is his cognitive world unconsciously interfering with the real world.
When discussing research in the microscopic field, he carefully used photons rather than electromagnetic waves, and obviously had a great degree of acceptance of the wave-particle duality of light.
Fernando, whose hair seems to always be a little messy, said angrily: "Then he pulled me to work together to solve the problems inside, completely ignoring the preliminary theory of the cause of the fission reactor running out of control and the weak interaction......"
"Weak interaction force" is named after Fernando with reference to the nuclear force proposed by Lucian and Hathaway - "strong interaction force".
He looked reluctant, but his bright red eyes were bright and bright, which made Lucian laugh secretly, teacher, if you don't want to, no one can and no one dares to force you to study quantum field theory-related issues, but it seems that you are completely enjoying it, full of enthusiasm and motivation to build such a system.
Of course, Lucian understands very well that starting from "quadratic quantization", the establishment of quantum field theory will definitely go through a long and tortuous process, because at present, there is an inevitable major problem in computing - the infinite amount caused by divergence, which needs to be slowly explored to solve new mathematical methods, and this is only one of the more significant difficulties.
"After this period of research, we have initially established a quantum field theory in a general sense, but it has so many flaws that we are going to publish it in advance for more arcanists to explore." Brooke's happy and contemplative answer was exactly what Lucian expected, "I just met you, and there are some questions to discuss together."
He unceremoniously extended the invitation.
Fernando, who has never hidden his feelings, his expression collapsed slightly, and he cursed in a low voice: "Damn infinity!"
Lucian did not refuse, and he was always willing to participate in similar arcane discussions, which helped him truly and thoroughly transform the knowledge in the soul library into his own knowledge.
Taking their drafts, Lucian took a quick look at them and pondered: "Isn't it a relativistic quantum field theory?"
"This is a plan for the future, let's solve the general problem first, if you are interested, we can discuss it often." Brooke did not hide it, and the discussion in his mouth was obviously a discussion with the right to authorship.
It seems that the teacher did not invite His Excellency the Speaker to join this discussion, perhaps because he was worried about the relationship between Mr. Brooke and him? Lucian judged based on this, but Mr. Brooke was right, and the research should be done step by step.
"Douglas is busy preparing for his ultra-long-range space jump, he has a lot of research of his own, and he doesn't have time to distract himself from more fields, otherwise, he would be happy to do similar work, as for now, discovering the planet may be more important than life......" Fernando said loudly, as if he knew what Lucian was thinking, without hesitation that Brooke was next to him.
Lucian himself had studied the content on the draft, so he quickly joined the exchange between Fernando and Brook and put forward some ideas that made their eyes shine.
Fernando and Brooke were not surprised by this, and they were the first to disbelieve that Lucian, who first proposed quantizing electromagnetic fields, had not conducted research on this aspect.
In such a discussion atmosphere, time passed quickly, and Brooke stood up with satisfaction and picked up his cane: "Although the main issue is still standing in front of us like the Church of Truth, there has finally been progress, Fernando, I will put forward this paper at the end of the month, so that more arcanists can see it, and I hope they can come up with new and useful ideas."
After the exchange just now, he understood that Lucian also had no idea of solving the most important problems, of course, he was ready to solve this level of difficulty, which he could not solve in a year or two, seven or eight years, and he had experienced many similar situations.
"It is estimated that there are no more than a hundred arcanists within the council who can understand and are interested in studying quantum field theory...... Fernando has always been known for his vicious-mouthed and picky mouth, "They may have recently preferred the magical roots created by the vacuum sea of negative states and the strange properties of microscopic particles, which fulfills all their fantasies."
"The negative energy vacuum sea, this is indeed a bit unrealistic, because it is difficult for us to imagine that we are living in a sea of negative energy particles and cannot sense its existence at all, but it is not impossible, hehe, the vacuum may not really be empty." He felt it, "Lucian, what do you think of the negative energy vacuum sea? It solves the energy and material problems of your magical concept."
"In fact, I have reservations about this." Lucian replied cautiously.
Brooke was clearly interested: "Do you have any other ideas? Isn't it the 'real world' that can't be studied for the time being?"
"I started from the principle of uncertainty, Mr. Brooke, do you remember the huge energy ups and downs in a very short period of time described in my paper?" Lucian did not have reservations about the students, but confessed his exploration direction, which could not be hidden from the teacher.
"Vacuum ups and downs?" Sure enough, Fernando asked directly.
Brooke paused for a moment and recalled: "Since time and energy are a pair of quantities that conform to the principle of uncertainty, the more certain the time, the more uncertain the energy...... In a very short time frame, due to the uncertain principle, even in a vacuum, huge energy will suddenly gush out and then disappear, on average, in line with the law of conservation of energy and difficult to sense......"
This is even more unrealistic than the negative energy vacuum sea, the space around it has always had rising and falling waves of energy, but it has not been sensed or affected!
"It can be described as an undulating sea of energy." Lucian describes it close to the negative energy state vacuum sea for easy understanding.
Fernando did not reject the uncertain principle, he objected to Lucian's description of its material intrinsic properties, believing that there were other reasons for the uncertain principle, so he did not roar about the "uncertain sea of energy", but said seriously: "This can also explain the source of energy, and it has something to do with the field theory we are studying.
"In our previous research, the electric field strength and magnetic field strength became a pair of quantities that conformed to the uncertain principle, which means that they cannot be zero at the same time, so there are also ups and downs of electromagnetic fluctuations around us?" Brooke suddenly remembered the research of the past period of time.
Lucian nodded: "Theoretically, that's the case."
Brooke said seriously and slightly excitedly: "Then maybe we can observe this kind of electromagnetic fluctuation in design experiments, if that's the case, the vacuum is really wonderful!"
After he left excitedly, Fernando said to Lucian: "In the discussion just now, I think you didn't seem to have anything else to say?"
Is this also seen? Lucian smiled: "Mainly there are some views on the definition of matter, since we regarded electromagnetic fields as matter a long time ago, why not go further? Perhaps the field is a basic form of matter......"
"I'll think about it again." Fernando pinched his forehead.
Lucian saw that he was a little tired, so he took his leave, at this time, Fernando said sternly: "The observer effect is not a good theory, you'd better not get too carried away."
Then, he was silent for a moment: "...... But your 'unsolid' conjecture at the basic level of matter, the conjecture of the source of energy and matter, and the conjecture of the fluctuating vacuum energy of the sea all have certain research value."
Lucian suddenly laughed, teacher, if you want to praise me, just say it directly.

"Weak observer...... The negative energy vacuum is ...... in the holy city of Reims, Pope Benedict III looked at the sunset outside the window and sighed in a low voice.
Sorry for being late.
