Chapter 511 Observer effect, quantum ghost?

Elemental ghost...a word that frightens everyone who comes from the land of wizards.

No one can forget the research accident that was almost catastrophic for the elemental wizards more than ten years ago.

It is said that at that time, the master of elements Artok and the wizards of his school were studying more microscopic fields.

Until today, Harrov finally realized what his friend had seen before going crazy. They must have touched the quantum realm, and they might even have done similar double-slit interference experiments before!

[It is actually hiding from me, it actually knows that I am observing it... They are ghosts, ghosts of the elements!]

Harrov couldn't help but recall the manuscript left by Altok in his mind, and the contents above made people shudder.

The other wizards in the large exhibition hall fell into horror and panic.

Electrons are everywhere, and they are one of the most critical microscopic particles that constitute elements!

If this thing had consciousness, it would be a terrifying existence...

Seeing that everyone was beginning to discuss quantum ghosts and that the situation on the field was in danger of getting out of control, Linn couldn't help but increase his tone and interrupted everyone's words. "I do not recognize the existence of consciousness in microscopic elements.

Speculation...at least there is no valid evidence to prove this right now!"

"But... the results of the experiment just now couldn't be more clear. It was our observations that changed the trajectory of the electrons..." An old wizard said with a crazy expression.

"Isn't this exactly your judgment, Speaker Lynn?" Sanchez also added in surprise.

The wizards in the exhibition hall also got into a quarrel, and some even said that 'electronics are afraid of them, so they hide their true form'.

Lin En was speechless. He had to raise his tone a little and emphasized. "It's just probability collapse. Just like the gold coin just now, for you, its status is also unknown before it is revealed, but you

Can we say it has wisdom?"

"This is completely different!" The old wizard pounded the table excitedly. "That gold coin, whether we look at it or not, is still there, and its status will never change."

This is the difference between the two. For microscopic particles, observation can only confirm the current position and trajectory. Once the observation is stopped, the state changes back to a chaotic probability cloud.

"At least, if we don't look at it, we will never be able to confirm its current state!" Linn shrugged, and then spoke again. "And I already have some preliminary ideas about the collapse of the probability cloud."

Harrov and others immediately looked over, and the exhibition hall immediately became quiet.

Lin En cleared his throat, but without any intention of showing off, he spoke directly.

"I think observation itself is powerful! If we want to see an object, we need to use light. If we want to hear sound, we must sense vibration. In other words, we cannot know something without affecting it at all.

information, this effect may lead to changes in the electronic state."

"What you mean is that it is not necessarily the observation that causes the electron to change from a superposition state to a particle state, but other incidental factors?" Harov said in a deep voice. "For example, we use magic power to conduct observations, so

had an impact on it.”

It's like a fish in the water that is tightly bound by a strong fishing net. It cannot stretch its body freely and swim in the lake, but can only struggle feebly within the grid.

This explanation is more acceptable.

"No, that's not right!" Vittorio on the side shook his head. The four of them and the great wizards in the exhibition hall just now were not just making observations, they also did some experiments and expanded the field itself.

It will not have any impact on the results of the experiment.

The interference fringe-like light spots on the electronic screen are proof of this.

The real change lies in the moment they start observing, and it is not specific to any one person, anyone can observe, and there seems to be no requirement for strength.

Whether it is an apprentice, a formal wizard, a great wizard or a legendary wizard, it can be done. Vittorio even suspects that even an ordinary person can cause electrons to change from a wave-particle superposition state to a stable particle state.

"Is it the power of observation itself?" Aurora's brain was a little confused. The weirdness of the quantum realm made her head hurt when she understood it. She could only guess that the power of psychic energy affected everything.

Lynn is also thinking about this issue.

In the previous life, the Federation had actually conducted very in-depth research on the quantum field and made a lot of scientific research results. However, how to explain the observer effect more scientifically is still a maddening problem.

In order to crack it, federal researchers racked their brains, trying to restore this phenomenon without observing it.

If it is a magnetic field, use a strong magnetic field to interfere. If it is gravity, create a gravitational field. If it is other microscopic elements, create a particle flow to try to intercept electrons.

The result is that these things can indeed affect the trajectory of electrons, but they can only barely reproduce it if they carefully adjust various data.

People only need to take a look at the observation results, and even if they input the results directly into their brains without using their eyes, they can still affect the trajectory of electrons.

The federal scientific researchers were puzzled, and many insisted that they did not want to believe that observation really caused all this.

After all, to put it bluntly, they are just carbon-based organisms. They can be produced in batches using cloning technology, so there is nothing special about them.

It is hard to imagine that something like this can have a decisive impact on the mysterious microscopic field.

But now the situation seems to be a little different. It has been confirmed that the soul really exists, can be embodied with the help of magic, and can even be used as a high-level energy.

Lin En quickly broke away from these complicated thoughts, looked at the speaker who was still frowning in thought and the frightened wizards, and spoke again.

"Electrons exist in any element. If they have intelligence, they will not let us do whatever we want. In comparison, they are more like a law, a new law, different from the laws of the macroscopic world!

"

Linn's words slightly eased the wizards' fear of elemental ghosts. As he said, if electrons had intelligence, they would never be so smooth when casting spells.

"In short, we need experiments, more experiments!" Harrov said decisively. "Only more rigorous experiments can answer all these questions!"

Whether it is the wave-particle duality proposed by Linn or the probability theory, further experiments are needed to prove it.

Aurora also put forward some experimental ideas. Since the emission and movement trajectories of electrons are irregular, they were unable to 'see' electrons at a fixed time and at a fixed point during their previous observations.

Is it possible to find a way to suddenly observe the electron at the moment it passes through the gap, and thus observe how the electron is transmitted in the form of a probability wave?

You can also increase the number of gaps to three or four to see if the results of the experiment will change.

Vittorio was even more imaginative and proposed that he could build an instrument that could detect the trajectory of electrons, record the process of the double-slit experiment without anyone observing, and then check it after that.

Listening to the discussion of several people, Lin En's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Good guys, this is going to be an even more terrifying delayed-selection quantum erasure experiment...

Lin En opened his mouth, originally wanting to let them calm down for a while, at least wait until they understand what probability clouds and wave-particle duality are before considering these more profound issues, but after thinking about it,

Still kept his mouth shut.

Because Harrov and others are definitely not the only ones who can think of these experimental methods. He cannot stop every wizard from conducting experiments in private. If they are allowed to conduct research on their own, they may be able to come up with some sensational theories.

It's better to conduct research openly. At least I can help explain some weird microscopic phenomena, so as not to lead others to drag magic into the ditch.

After a period of discussion, Harrov and others did not choose to put their ideas into action now. Instead, they prepared to go back and study how to conduct the next experiment. Even though they announced that today's academic seminar would be here

Finish.

After walking out of the exhibition hall, Glenn and the others still felt a little dizzy. Linn's improved double-slit interference experiment completely shattered their previous understanding of the world.

In fact, Glenn's situation was pretty good. Many wizards were still muttering when they left the venue. "Ghosts... elemental ghosts actually exist!" "This world is fake!"

"Magic no longer exists, magic no longer exists!"

"Teacher, do you really think that this world is determined by probability?" Fulla said with horror. "This is so... so strange!"

Anthony was also a little shaken. According to Lin En, all microscopic particles have similar characteristics, and light is no exception.

Are electromagnetic waves actually particles? Or do they really have the characteristics of certain particles?

After a long while, Anthony came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and replied. "As Speaker Lynn said, the laws of the world do not necessarily conform to our understanding..."

"But how specific it is, we still need to conduct experiments in person to prove it!"

Anthony did not deny the results of the test in the exhibition hall just now, but he did not completely give up his wave theory.

A double-slit interference experiment is not enough to overthrow the cornerstone of magic. Maybe as they study more deeply in the microscopic field, there will be many more novel discoveries that can prove that this world is still consistent with cognition, but they just ignored something before.

some key factors.

There are not a few people who think like Anthony. Sanchez, Arad and other great wizards who support particle theory want to find evidence that can refute probability waves after leaving the seminar.

They can never believe that this world is determined by probability and everything must have laws!

On the other side, at the seminar venue, Lin En was directing Jonny and others to put away the various instruments on the experimental table. He could already imagine what kind of commotion it would cause after [Magic Daily] announced the results of this experiment tomorrow.

There was an uproar.

Quantum theory is a subversive challenge to traditional magic concepts and will inevitably have a great impact, so he specially made a disclaimer.

In any case, this difficulty and ideological obstacle must be overcome after all, otherwise magic may stop here, and they will never be able to defeat the superior God!

"Speaker Lynn."

Behind him, a shout interrupted Linn's thoughts.

"Speaker Aurora, do you have any questions you need me to answer?" Lin En turned around and asked with a smile.

"There are naturally a lot of questions, but what I want to ask about is about the Secret Society." Aurora said bluntly.

The expression on Lin En's face did not change, and he was not surprised that the other party would ask about this.

After all, he, Harrov and others said before that the main body of the [Secret Society] is within the empire.

Now the Magic Kingdom's army has occupied more than 70% of the empire's territory. Even though he had made some preparations before and recruited many talented wizards to join the [Arcane Society] to expand the number of people, there is still a substantial problem.

The problem cannot be solved.

That is where the leaders of the [Secret Magic Society], the ‘legendary wizards’, are going!

In the past, they could excuse themselves by citing the unknown situation, but now that they have defeated Ella, and these people haven't appeared yet, it is obviously unjustifiable.

In fact, Lin En had already thought of a solution. It was beyond his expectation that Aurora and others could bear to ask about it until now.

"Since it is about the [Secret Magic Society], why not just hold a legendary meeting and ask in person? Although I am also a member of the [Secret Magic Society], after all, I am not like Albert and Isaac.

I know everything about learning." Lin En said with a smile.

Aurora paused for a moment, and then she remembered that she did have the authority to convene a legendary meeting with the [Arcane Ring], but she had never used it.

"Well, let's set the meeting time at twelve o'clock tonight." Aurora nodded and said calmly.

It is indeed more to her liking to ask in person. In addition to the confusion about the [Arcane Society], maybe they can also discuss various unconventional phenomena in the quantum field.

You must know that it only took a few months for Lin En to become a legend. No matter how talented this magic star is, he cannot have such a profound understanding of the microscopic field in such a short period of time, so she guessed that part of Lin En's

The research information on microscopic particles must come from the [Arcane Society]...

"By the way, call Harrov and Speaker Vittorio." Linn reminded. It had been delayed for so long, and now it is time to solve it!
