Throne of Magical Arcana

When we want to observe the wave nature of electrons, so when we experiment with the double-slit alchemy device, we will find that it has obvious wave characteristics—interference fringes. When a recorder is added near the gap, the interference fringes disappear, and the pure particle nature emerges...

This is the reality of the world? What do we want, what do electrons show? Observation changing the world?

I don't know how many arcanists' heads are in a mess, which is more confusing than analyzing the arcane meaning of strange magic, which involves their understanding of the whole world and their own understanding! They used to think that only with the help of magic, all kinds of unimaginable and unreasonable phenomena will appear in the world. Who knows, the bottom layer and foundation of the real world-the microscopic field, is a place that is weirder than magic and more exaggerated than fantasy. place!

"Is this the embodiment of the principle of complementarity in wave-particle duality? Waves and particles cannot appear together. When one is determined, the other will disappear instantly, so it shows the principle of uncertainty?" Larry controlled his shock , Surprised, excited and excited, thinking about the arcane principles revealed by Lucien's electronic double-slit interference experiment.

He warned himself that at this time, one must not connect the microscopic realm with the macroscopic world, otherwise it would confuse the cognition and contradict with all kinds of real things in the material world, thus appearing at a loss and even self-contradictory.

"When the microscopic field transitions to the macroscopic world, there must be other factors affecting it, which makes the wave function collapse, the volatility disappears, and the particle nature is determined..." Annick, Sprint, Dieppe, Timothy The arcanists kept reminding themselves, otherwise they would be shaken by Lucien's electronic double-slit interference experiment!

Only when they firmly believe in similar ideas can they accept the various experimental results in the current microscopic field.

This may be the most subversive and incredible field in the history of arcane and magic!

Although middle and low-level arcanists are still beginners in the microcosmic domain, and have not built their own cognitive world from this, the unimaginable results and inferences in the microcosmic domain contradict the common sense of the macrocosm, and these common senses are their The basis of the outlook on life, the world, and values, so the expressions of each of them are either blank or painful, and they have tasted the helpless state of being impacted by the three outlooks.

"As expected of the Destroyer of Three Views..." I don't know how many arcanists cursed in fear in their hearts.

After the strong impact brought by the electronic double-slit interference experiment subsided, Larry, Dieppe, Annick, Sprint and other outstanding arcanists in the microcosmic field showed slightly excited expressions. This experiment made them feel more deeply. Knowing the wave-particle duality and complementary principle of electrons, I am full of enthusiasm for exploring the microscopic field!

"I have a question." Suddenly, Oliver, with a slightly distorted expression, took a step forward, and the dim light around him returned to normal. Just now, he almost realized that the world was shaken and hurt himself.

Lucien nodded slightly: "Just ask."

Larry and Dieppe looked over curiously: "Do you have any questions, Sir Oliver?"

Oliver took a breath imperceptibly: "Observation changes the result... What is the specific definition of this observation? This involves the transition from the microscopic realm to the macroscopic world."

"This observation refers to our observation of electrons by various means." Lucien replied calmly, his eyelids drooping to cover the emotions in his pupils.

Oliver has calmed down, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a poetic tone: "The core is us? Then I have a thought experiment. I think everyone knows the decay of atomic nuclei?"

Samantha, Rachel, Heidi, and the others all nodded quietly. Elemental decay is one of the major branches of the microscopic field. Lord Stormmaster and Lord Elemental Lord have just obtained the Evans Ao by studying it. The magic award, and it represents a new energy direction, representing a powerful and lethal legendary magic, so there is no arcanist who does not pay attention to this field!

Oliver continued: "Assuming that 50% of the nucleus is likely to decay, then we design such an experimental device..."

He described an ingenious experimental design in which the decay of an atomic nucleus releasing neutrons would set off a chain reaction that would eventually break a glass bottle containing a deadly curse.

"If we put a poor cat in this experimental device, normally, we can describe it like this, the cat is 50% likely to be killed by the curse." When Oliver explained the experimental device, Ann The faces of Nick and Sprint turned pale immediately, and they seemed to have thought of something terrible.

Dieppe, Larry, Urisian and other outstanding arcanists in the microscopic field couldn't help shaking their hands weakly, and their faces turned livid, because they probably guessed what His Excellency Oliver wanted to express! He wants to connect the microscopic realm with the macroscopic world through simple and ingenious experimental devices!

And this is the question they have been avoiding forcibly before!

Under the curious eyes of most of the arcanists, Oliver's voice rose slightly: "If we seal this experimental device and do not observe it, then according to Lucien's interpretation, the atomic nuclei belonging to the microscopic realm will show a quantum superposition state, in a state of quantum superposition. In the mixed superposition of decay and non-decay, such a magical state will not collapse randomly into a definite result until we observe it."

"What I want to ask everyone is, what about the poor cat? Since it will die if it decays, and it will live if it does not decay, the quantum superposition state of the atom is equivalent to the state it is in? This means that it is in the experimental state. A quantum superposition of life and death in the device?"

"is it possible?"

"Or the observation of the cat will also cause the collapse of the wave function, making the result certain?"

Boom, the hearts of Larry, Dieppe and others shrank violently, and their faces had changed from livid to pale, a superimposed state of life and death? A "magic" cat that lives and dies? No magic can produce such a state! Mr. Oliver magnifies the weirdness in the microscopic field to the macroscopic world with delicate and ingenious simple experiments!

This makes them no longer able to ignore this problem, which makes them have to face the huge contradiction between the microscopic realm and the macroscopic world, and has to think about the mystery of the transition. Just to say, I'm going to strangle that cat so there's no contradiction!

They who had just agreed with Lucien's interpretation due to the electronic double-slit interference experiment had burning pain on their faces, as if they had been slapped hard.

Oliver looked at the silent Lucien on the podium: "What is the state of this cat?"

Because of the "Immortal Tunnel" and the fact that Lucien has experienced state transitions, he does not reject the concept of quantum superposition state, but what he does not understand is at what scale can quantum superposition state be established, only in electrons, protons, Atoms and other microscopic particles? Or can it be extended to molecules, to cells, to ordinary organisms, to intelligent life? Only by clarifying this boundary can we find the reason for the disappearance of the quantum superposition state, thus laying the theoretical foundation for a safe and unharmed God-like path!

Therefore, he is not satisfied with Lucien's rough interpretation that "observation causes the quantum superposition state to disappear". Human observation will cause collapse, so what about other intelligent life? What about ordinary cats without magic? What about non-living matter? What about molecules on a smaller scale?

Following Oliver's question, everyone's eyes were on Lucien, waiting for his answer.

Lucien still lowered his eyes slightly and said: "Yes, the cat is in the quantum superposition state of life and death."

"What?" I don't know how many voices sounded at the same time, the superposition of life and death? Cats can be in this state, what about humans? Why do we never feel it?

The other great arcanists listened to the conversation between the two in silence, while Oliver said in a low voice: "What about human beings? What is locked in the experimental device is not the poor cat, but human beings? He is also in the midst of life and death." quantum superposition state?"

"No, the wave function has collapsed at this time, and the result is determined, either life or death, there will be no superposition of life and death." Lucien quickly replied as if he had thought about it long ago.

Oliver stepped forward again: "What is the difference between the man and the cat? Why can the former's observation make the wave function collapse and the quantum superposition state disappear, but the latter's observation cannot?"

Lucien twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, but he still said it: "Consciousness, the participation of consciousness, and conscious intelligent observers can make the wave function collapse."

this? ! All the arcanists were shocked. They never thought that Lucien would explain it like this. If consciousness and intelligent observers are the reason for the disappearance of the quantum superposition state, many terrible facts will be derived!

Fernando, who had endured it for a long time, roared, and a terrifying air pressure was generated in the large classroom: "That is to say, before the appearance of conscious observers, the entire world, the entire universe, is in a state of wave function, in a state of diffuse probability without substance." The cloud state? Then after a long wait, the first observer was conceived, and then the universe and the world collapsed, showing what we see now?"

The permeation of the universe for billions of years is just to wait for "you"'s affectionate eyes?

This is more than ridiculous! It's a madman's dream!

"Why can't it be like this? We can't understand the world before the first observer. What's the point of what state it is in?" Lucien didn't meet the teacher's eyes.

Douglas couldn't help it anymore, and said seriously: "That means there is a first observer, the most supreme observer at the beginning? Is this what you mean?"

Not only did Brook and Oliver disagree, but even Helen and Hathaway, who were relatively more accepting of Lucien's interpretation, shook their heads firmly after he put forward the observer's explanation.

Lucien suddenly raised his head and looked at all the arcanists: "Haven't everyone thought about why there is extraordinary power? Why is there magic?"

"Starting from consciousness, starting from the observer effect, may be a way."

The magnetic and introverted voice echoed in the large classroom, hitting the hearts of all arcanists including Douglas, Brooke, and Fernando. Yes, what is the essence of magic? This is the question that Parliament has been asking since its inception! This is a question that will inevitably arise after human beings witness all kinds of extraordinary phenomena! Unless human beings stop thinking and spend their lives in the same muddle as cats and dogs!

The more they understand the reality of the world, the more puzzled arcanists are about this issue. The relationship between the two is like Lucien's uncertainty principle, because there seems to be no room for magic in the laws that are close to the reality of the world!

Consciousness, intelligent thinking, observer effect, maybe it is really the way to explain?

Annick looked at the teacher on the podium and struggled in his heart. The teacher was so personable, majestic, majestic, and correct all the time. People couldn't help but believe his words and follow his footsteps. , he is the most authoritative master in the micro field and the macro starry sky!

In my mind, the teacher is so tall, as towering as a mountain, an existence that I look up to all my life, an idol that I can't keep up with even if I try my best to catch up.

But, but, why did the teacher put forward such an explanation for the transition from the microscopic field to the macroscopic world, that is, the collapse of the wave function?

Am I wrong?

Is past experience and my imagination deceiving me?

Looking sideways, he saw the bewildered expressions of Heidi, Katrina and other students, and saw the distorted face of Splinter clenching his teeth.

In the strange silence, Lucien's deep and mellow voice sounded again: "The first observer may not be an extraordinary existence, maybe it is the same as us."

"As for the supreme observer that His Excellency the Speaker is worried about, that is, the god who throws the dice, we can ignore it."

"Recall the experiment just now, my observations lead to changes in the properties of electrons, and such observations, I can complete, each of you can complete!"

"The god who throws the dice does exist, but he is not outside, but in the hearts of each of us, each of us is our own supreme god!"

Douglas, Fernando, Atlante and others looked at Lucien in astonishment, and the others were also shocked by his words, and the scene fell into extreme silence and silence for a moment.

Suddenly, someone in the lecture seat stood up directly, just like the Arcanist, Archmage and others who arrived later.

"Annick?" Lucien looked at the riser.

"Teacher..." Annick mumbled a few times in his throat, and finally said weakly but firmly:

"I don't think your explanation is quite right."

After finishing speaking, he did not look away shyly and lowered his head like in the past, but firmly looked at Lucien.

"Teacher, I also think there is something wrong with your explanation." At this time, the tall and thin Splinter also stood up abruptly, before Heidi, Katrina, Leilia, Larry, and Dieppe In the astonished eyes of the others, he raised his chin stubbornly and said loudly.

His hands clenched into fists.
