Scholar's Advanced Technological System Chapter 1223 – The Extra String and the Void

Chapter 1223: The Extra String and the Void

For the physics community, this was definitely an extraordinary day.

Human civilization had broadened their thinking radius outside the universe. They also broadened their dimensional view of the world.

The changes this brought to society might not be as direct as high-speed rail or a space shuttle, but its hidden value could not be estimated with a monetary value.

“He saved us.”

Professor Steven Weinberg looked at the papers he downloaded from the ILHCRC website. He said, “The extra dimension beyond n, the lake reflecting inside a lake… This analogy is perfect!”

“I guess you’re going to say that you knew it all along?” Professor Perlmutter said with a cup of coffee in his hand. He had just returned from Shanghai.

“That is what I think!” Professor Weinberg blushed and said, “Don’t look at me like that… I said the same thing before the report began!”

That was technically true.

As one of the few public atheists among Jewish physicists, Steven Weinberg firmly stood on the side of material determinism since the beginning. He proposed a special dimension to explain this mass expansion phenomenon.

Just like how the physics community added a fifth dimension to the equation of relativity in order to explain the electromagnetic force, the expansion mass might come from the n+1 dimension outside the horizon.

He had the same idea as Lu Zhou; the only difference was that he could not prove his idea.

It was actually very easy to put forward a conjecture. ArXiv gave birth to thousands of sci-fi theories, but few of them were logically self-consistent. The ones that were logically self-consistent could not be proved by experiments.

There was no doubt that Lu Zhou not only explained the existence of the n+1 dimension from the mathematical sense, but he also explained the disorderly behavior from the experimental sense.

They discovered a whole “new continent” of physics.

As for everything else…

Perhaps they should consider the threats from the Void?

After all, no matter how they looked at it, this filter was not placed in front of them with good intentions.

Weinberg didn’t have much hope.

This might be a ploy for ILHCRC to ask governments for funding money. After all, humans were animals that desired privacy. No one liked to have someone spying on themselves.

Even though the threat of this crisis existed, it was too unlikely.

Perhaps it might never come even after the sun died out…

“There is no doubt that the Nobel Committee owes him a Nobel Prize. I have said a long time ago that he is worthy of this honor. I recommended Lu Zhou to them when he discovered the electrostrong interaction. However, the stubborn old men keep handing out awards to irrelevant people.”

Perlmutter coughed and said, “That’s not quite correct. The award winners definitely aren’t irrelevant… From what I know, Professor Klitzing recommends Lu Zhou to the Nobel Prize Committee every year.”

“I will also write a letter this year.” Weinberg threw the printed thesis on the table and said, “No one deserves this honor more than him, I mean no one.”

He felt like he wasn’t convincing enough, so he added to his words.

“Of course, this includes me.”

…

The second week after the experimental data was released, a paper titled “The Void and World of Extra Strings” was released on the ILHCRC website.

After the paper was released, the number of downloads exceeded 100,000 times in less than half an hour.

The same paper was also published in “Future” and was reprinted by major well-known journals. Nature and Science even set highlights and put the paper on the covers of their latest journal issues.

The most notable one was probably the brief commentary written by Professor Weinberg, a well-known scholar in the field of physics, in “Physical Review”.

As the Nobel Prize winner in 1979, Professor Weinberg had a considerable influence in the field of physics. Even Edward Witten was inferior to him in terms of status.

Whether it was the unified theory of weak electricity, the scattering of mesons, infrared photons, quantum gravity, and the discovery of Z bosons, none of them were comparable to string theory. His paper on Z boson was the most cited physics paper in 2010.

He was among the great living physicists, along with Yang and Anderson.

Because of this, after his paper was published in Physical Review, it aroused a lot of heated discussions in the entire physics community and even in academia as a whole…

[For the physics community, the Void is undoubtedly an unfamiliar concept. Whether it is an extra string in the universe or an observation from outside the universe, it sounds too mysterious. However, logically, it is indeed self-consistent and has been tested by experiments.

[Mass never changes. However, mass and energy from the n+1 dimension have broken our understanding of the original universe, opening our eyes to a brand new world.

[Like we have seen, there are still many mysteries in this universe that we still don’t know about. We will continue to search for these mysteries.

[This is probably the biggest revelation that the Void brings to us.

[If there is something watching us, whether they are hostile or not, we should at least respond to their expectations. This is both for the benefit of the universe, as well as the benefit of ourselves.]

While the entire physics world was excited because of the discovery of the “Void” and “extra dimensions”, Lu Zhou, who had returned to Jinling from Shanghai, felt completely relaxed.

After the confirmed theory of extra dimensions, the turmoil that threatened the entire physics and the controversy surrounding the “mass expansion” finally settled.

However, he still had some worries in his mind.

For example, in theory, there should be no matter in the Void. How did the Void mass project into the n-dimensional universe? And what kind of matter was it?

There were a series of problems that still couldn’t be explained by the existing theories.

But in any case, the immediate problem was solved.

These questions were to be answered by later generations. All he could do was put forward conjectures.

For example, what if, before The Observer entered the Void Civilization, it kept a fragment of the old universe.

Or what if both matter and antimatter were generated at the same time? The antimatter sank into the endless Void, while the matter was projected into the new universe…

However, regardless of what the speculation was, it was too difficult to verify with current technical means.

Proving these things was no easier than proving the existence of the spirit of the universe…

After Lu Zhou went back to his Zhongshan International mansion, he took a shower, then lay on his soft bed.

Even though he lived in a nice place in Shanghai, nothing compared to the comfort of his own home.

He closed his eyes.

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound.

He saw a blue box floating above him.
