For the physics community, this day is definitely a day of great significance.

From this day on, human civilization, in a real sense, broadened the radius of thinking to areas outside the universe, and broadened the cognition of the world to a dimension.

There may not be a high-speed rail or a space shuttle to bring changes to society, but the hidden value cannot be measured by money or goods.

"He saved us."

Looking at the papers downloaded from imcrc's official website database, Professor Steven Weinberg said with great praise, "the extra dimension beyond the n dimension, the lake reflected in the lake This metaphor is just too vivid! "

"I guess your next sentence is not, in fact, I think so?" With a cup of coffee in his hand, Professor perlma, who just came back from Shanghai, said with a smile.

"I do think so!" A faint smile on one's face, old professor Weinberg, a face of a dry cough, and a contending argument, "don't look at me like this..." You know, that's what I said before this presentation! "

He didn't say that falsely.

As a rare public atheist among Jewish physicists, Steven Weinberg firmly stood on the side of material determinism from the beginning, and proposed a special dimension to summarize this phenomenon of mass expansion.

Just as physics added a fifth dimension to the relativistic equation in order to explain the electromagnetic force, the expanding mass may move from the N + 1 dimension outside the horizon (assuming that the observable boundary is n dimension).

In fact, this idea coincides with Lu Zhou's, but the only difference is that he can't prove his idea.

It's easy to put forward a conjecture. ArXiv has more sci-fi brain holes than the sci-fi world every day, but few of them can be logically self consistent, and most of them will become "minority reports" because they can't be proved by experiments.

There is no doubt that the land boat not only explains the necessity of the existence of N + 1 dimension from the mathematical sense, but also proves that the disturbance is not an unbounded disorder behavior from the experimental sense.

For physics, they found a "new continent" larger than the universe.

For world politics

Maybe they should think about the potential threat in the void?

After all, it doesn't look like the sieve was put in front of them out of goodwill.

But of course, Weinberg doesn't have much hope.

This may be the reason for imcrc to ask for money from governments. After all, people are animals eager for privacy. No one would like to have something unclean nearby to spy on themselves, but most of the governments would not be interested in something more boring than "global warming".

Even if such a crisis exists, it is too far away.

When the sun goes out, it doesn't have to come

“…… There is no doubt that the Nobel Committee owes him a Nobel Prize. As I have said for a long time, he feels worthy of this honor. At the time of the emergence of the theory of the unification of strong electricity, I suggested it to them. However, those stubborn donkeys, who are old-sighted and dazed, still give the prize to some inexplicable things as if they have not seen it. "

Listening to the old friend's swearing, Perlmutter coughed dryly: "it can't be said that, no matter how many years of award-winning research is absolutely not inexplicable And in fact, as far as I know, Professor klitsyn writes to the Nobel committee every year to nominate his name. "

"I'll write this year too," Weinberg muttered, leaving his paper on the table. "No one deserves the honor more than him, I mean no one."

It seems that this is not enough to be persuasive, he added later.

"Of course, that includes myself."

……

Just a week after the release of the experimental data, imcrc published a paper on its website entitled "the world on the void and the extra strings".

Once the paper was released, in less than half an hour, the number of downloads exceeded 100000.

At the same time, the same paper was published in the future and reprinted in various famous journals. In particular, "nature" and "science" even set it up with highlights on the cover of the latest issue of the journal.

Among them, Professor Weinberg, a famous scholar in the field of physics, wrote a brief review of this paper in "physics quick review".

As a 1979 Nobel Prize winner, Professor Weinberg has a huge influence in the field of physics. Even Edward Witten is a little inferior to him if we only consider his position in physics.

No matter the unified theory of weak electricity, or the discovery of meson scattering, infrared photons, quantum gravitation and Z boson, which laid the foundation of modern physics, none of them can be compared with string theory. In particular, his paper on Z boson, until 2010, was the most cited.It is necessary to rank the existing physicists. He is also a scholar in the same sequence as Yang and Anderson.

It is just because of this that the paper published in the "Physics Review" has aroused heated discussion in the whole physics field and even in the world's academic circles since its appearance

As far as physics is concerned, "void" is undoubtedly a strange concept. Whether it is the extrafrontal chord that runs through the whole life of the universe or the observation from outside the universe, it sounds too mysterious. However, it is logically consistent and has been tested by experiments. ]

[the mass never decays, but someone sprinkles a handful of sand in front of us. These masses from the N + 1 dimension break our understanding of the original universe, and let our vision enter a field we have never known before. ]

[as we can see, there are still many mysteries in this universe that we still don't know, and after that, we will keep on searching. ]

[this is probably the biggest enlightenment of void. ]

[if there's something really staring at us, whether it's well intentioned or not, we should at least respond to their expectations to some extent. Whether it's for the universe or for ourselves. ]

just when the whole physics circle was shocked and excited by the discovery of "void" and "extra dimension", we had returned to the land boat of Jinling from Shanghai, and the whole people were completely relaxed.

The turmoil of the whole physics and the controversy surrounding the "mass expansion effect" finally settled with the birth of the extra dimension theory.

Even though, there are still some questions in his mind.

For example, there should be no physical void. How does it project mass into the n-dimensional universe? And what is the substance released?

This series of problems cannot be explained by the existing theories.

But anyway, the trouble is over.

What he can do for the buildings that are destined to be completed by his successors is only to put forward some possible conjectures, or brain holes, for those successors.

For example, like the observer civilization, before entering the void, a piece of debris belonging to the old universe is retained in a special way, and the whole civilization is curled up in it.

Or, in some way, both positive and negative matter are generated, which sink the antimatter into the endless void and project the positive matter into the new universe

However, no matter what kind of conjecture, it is really too difficult to prove it by the current technical means.

Even in terms of the difficulty itself, it is no easier to prove these things than to prove or falsify the existence of the cosmic spirit

Back at Zhongshan International's home, after washing the boat, the first thing was to lie on the soft bed.

Although he lives in a good place these days, he can't compare with his family.

With his eyes closed, the boat emptied his consciousness.

At this time, he finally heard the voice from the deep void, like the sound of nature.

In addition, I saw the light blue dialog box in the floating view --

[congratulations to the host, complete the emergency task! ]
