Throne of Magical Arcana

On the last Friday of April in 827, the thirty-first floor of the Allinge Magic Tower was full of people and noisy.

"This is probably the place with the highest concentration of official magicians..." Heidi mixed in the crowd, joking to Katrina, Annick and other students.

Because "Atom Mastery" Lucien Evans will hold an open class on the microscopic field this morning, most of the magicians are boiling, looking for every opportunity to come and listen, which makes Holt Magic Academy's senior management A restrictive method had to be promulgated: the teachers and students of the college can freely choose whether to attend the lectures here, and the magicians from outside, no matter whether they are low-level, middle-level, or high-level, all decide whether they are qualified to attend the lectures according to the order of registration. .

Splinter frowned and looked at Heidi: "Why did you bring us here? If you have any questions, you can ask the teacher in private."

Heidi laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I experienced the teacher standing on the podium, how can I miss this opportunity?"

Driven by her, most of the arcanists at the Atomic Research Institute have part-time jobs at the Holt School of Magic and Magic, giving back to the society the "treatment" they received under their teachers.

"Yeah, I really miss the leisurely life of studying in the magic school." Leilia followed Heidi into the big classroom.

Taling Prospell temporarily opened the magic circle in terms of space folding, so this large classroom is so spacious that it can seat thousands of people.

Annick couldn't think about the problem in this environment, so he justified Heidi's sudden whim: "Such an opportunity is really rare. Usually, the teacher will definitely not sort out the content from the beginning and give a systematic overall presentation, which helps As far as we have missed, you see, Mr. Gaston, Ms. Isabella, Mr. Larry, Mr. Dieppe, Mr. K., Ms. Samantha, Ms. Rachel... They all came."

He originally wanted to read the names of all the magicians he knew one by one, but soon found that this was a very troublesome thing, even more troublesome than studying the microscopic field.

"That's right, that's right, what Annick said is exactly the core content that I can't express." Heidi borrowed Annick's rhetoric without shame, and then took everyone to their seats.

Katrina let out a sigh of relief: "I don't know what the teacher will talk about today?"

With the development of the microcosmic field, she and Leilia and the others are also a little dazzled. They feel that they need to work hard to catch up. If it weren't for the solid foundation laid by Lucien, which allowed them to use and understand mathematics with ease, I'm afraid they would have followed Not to mention the group of top microcosmic field arcanists.

"This is an open class for all teachers and students. Your Excellency Evans will definitely not talk too deeply. It should be a holistic analysis that is easy for everyone to understand." Ophelia has been in the Institute of Atomics for nearly four years. The level and magic strength are advancing by leaps and bounds, but even so, she is still ignorant of the microscopic field, and urgently needs such a comprehensive overview to help herself grasp it.

Splinter said expectantly: "I don't know if the teacher will propose a new theory? A new theory that solves why there is uncertainty in microscopic particles?"

"Probably not... This is the biggest mystery in the microcosmic field, and it may represent the reality of the world." Annick shook his head, "According to the teacher's consistent point of view, probability and uncertainty are the intrinsic properties of microcosmic particles , is not an inevitable disturbance caused by measurement, so if we really find out why microscopic particles have such essential properties, it means that we have truly understood the microscopic field.”

Heidi curled her lips: "The teacher's explanation is a life-and-death relationship with determinism. No wonder Isabella, Ms. Samantha and other astrological arcanists will come to attend an open class."

Amidst the buzzing conversation, Tang Pu, the vice-principal of the Holt School of Magic and a member of the affairs committee, walked in and pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Quiet."

With the help of the magic circle of sound reinforcement, the crowded classroom was suddenly silent.

"Next, I will hand over the time to His Excellency Lucien Evans, who will tell us the mysteries of the microcosm." Tang Pu knew that nonsense at this time would be fired by magic, so he said succinctly.

Then, Lucien, who was wearing a black double-breasted long dress and a bow tie of the same color, came in from the side door, took off his top hat and put it on the podium.

"Everyone's time is precious, let's get straight to the point. The study of the microscopic field should start from the wave-particle war of light, so that we can understand the special characteristics of other microscopic particles..." Lucien said calmly, Starting from the classical wave experiment of light, the particle nature of light is gradually confirmed.

This is a content that magicians are very familiar with, and it is also something that they have a deep grasp of, so no one can't understand it, and they quickly integrated into the rhythm of Lucien's lectures.

...the discovery of cathode rays, the confirmation of electrons, the revelation of the internal structure of atoms, the confirmation of protons, the proposal of new alchemy... From light to the wave-particle duality of all microscopic particles, many experiments in the microscopic field do not conform to the previous model The reality of reality, the idea of ​​matrix mechanics, the interpretation of wave function, and the controversy caused by this interpretation and wave-particle duality, the views held by different grand arcanists and high-level arcanists, with Lucien's eloquent Dao Lai, clearly displayed in the minds of the arcanists who attended the class.

This does not have too difficult calculations and content, so that they have an overall understanding of the microscopic field, indulge in this magical field, and forget the passage of time.

"Your Excellency Evans is really fair. He explained all the different interpretations, and even analyzed why there were differences. He is completely without the arrogance that his own theory is definitely correct and other theories are not worth mentioning." Dieppe nodded in agreement. , to be able to achieve so many achievements at such a young age, there is absolutely no problem with His Excellency Evans' arcane attitude.

Unknowingly, Lucien finished his overall overview and looked at everyone with a smile: "This is the first part. Here, I would like to remind everyone that although in the narration just now, I tried to avoid difficult Mathematical knowledge, but everyone must keep in mind that in the microscopic field, we can and can only rely on mathematical and experimental results."

For Lucien's special emphasis, Heidi and others from the Institute of Atomic Research were not surprised, because this is what the teacher repeatedly warned him and others, while other arcanists who had not received Lucien's education probably nodded in understanding, They are well aware of the importance of mathematics and science, but they don't understand why they should be so overemphasized.

Lucien looked around and said in a serious tone: "The microscopic realm is a world that we cannot directly see with the naked eye. All our current observation methods will inevitably affect it, and various unimaginable phenomena will appear. For these phenomena, there will be different interpretations and different theoretical models, and at first glance, they all seem to make sense."

"But what I want to say is that in the microscopic field, in the field where our past experience cannot be copied, and in the field where habitual methods will be biased, all interpretations and all theoretical models must be strictly based on mathematics. Besides, it is not called interpretation, it is not called conjecture, but fantasy, fantasy!"

"Mathematics won't deceive us..." Nesska whispered to herself, Lucien's aura and these words left an indelible mark on him that could never be erased.

Lucien's serious attitude made most arcanists slightly alert, and they were more impressed with the importance of mathematics and science in the microscopic realm.

"I believe that everyone has doubts about the wave-particle duality of electrons, doubts about the ubiquitous probability cloud that pervades space, and doubts about whether it can pass through two gaps by itself... "Lucien suddenly raised this issue.

Most of the arcanists nodded frequently. This was the most difficult and controversial part so far. However, Annick and other Lucien's students all opened their eyes wide. According to their understanding of the teacher, things might not be that simple!

"Teacher, have you finished the preparations for the electron double-slit interference experiment?" After a short silence, Heidi quickly remembered the project that the teacher was busy with, which will be an important verification of the duality of electron waves and particles!

Annick and Splinter lost interest in talking to her, and looked intently at the podium, waiting for the teacher's next words with their hearts pounding.

Lucien paused for a long time before saying: "Take a five-minute break, and then I will demonstrate the electronic double-slit interference experiment."

"What?" In the big classroom, one after another shocked voices sounded at the same time, demonstrating such an important experiment on this occasion?

After being shocked, they quickly became excited and excited. Will they witness history? Witness a miracle happen?

Lucien ignored them, and took out an ordinary metal plate on his own. There didn't seem to be any gaps on it, or the gaps were too small to be seen.

"With such a small gap, even if it is legendary magic, I am afraid it will take several months to complete." The arcanists whispered to each other, and some notified their teachers to come and watch. They believed that the archmage would not be blocked .

Lucien took out the alchemy devices one by one, and quickly formed a platform for verifying the electronic double-slit interference. At the same time, Lucien exported the image of the sensor screen with other magic circles and enlarged it visually. on the wall.

At this time, the two great arcanists Brook and Oliver rushed over. They were not surprised that Lucien completed the metal plate required for the electronic double-slit interference experiment before themselves and others. After all, he was also a strong man close to the legendary third rank, and he was also the undisputed number one authority in the microcosmic field.

They could have waited for the final experimental results, but their pursuit of arcane arts and truth made them stand in the big classroom without any scruples about their identities, wanting to witness it for the first time.

After tens of seconds, Douglas came, Fernando came, Helen came, Hathaway came, and many legendary magicians and archmages came.

Lucien lowered his eyelids to cover his pupils, then gave a faint wry smile, opened his eyes, and walked to the experimental device: "Next, we will start the electronic double-slit interference experiment."
