Road to science and technology

So, it's clear.

When this cosmic matter first appeared, some unknown reason appeared again, which also broke the symmetry of matter and antimatter. However, the result was that there was a little more antimatter than matter, and eventually it was annihilated. After that, there will still be a small amount of antimatter left in the universe.

And these antimatter evolved into the large universe we have today.

Based on the existing knowledge of the Shenzhou civilization, Yue Yuanzhou only knew so much. As for the original unknown reason for the symmetry breaking of matter and antimatter, he actually didn't know.

But with his rich knowledge and experience, he can guess a thing or two.

Yue Yuanzhou noticed that whether it is a positive matter universe or an antimatter universe, its causes are all related to "some unknown cause".

As mentioned before, he didn't know the reason, but he could deduce it. Because the result of the unknown cause is already known, that is symmetry breaking.

Symmetry breaking can be understood in a narrow sense as the loss of symmetry elements, or it can also be understood as the phenomenon that asymmetric factors appear in a system that originally had high symmetry, and its symmetry degree spontaneously decreases.

Any symmetry must have symmetry breaking. Symmetry is ubiquitous in systems at all scales. The existence of symmetry must have symmetry breaking. It is an important concept in quantum field theory and is also important for exploring the origin of the universe. significance.

Just like Yue Yuanzhou now, he has grasped this key.

The symmetry in physics is naturally parity.

As we all know, parity is not conserved.

And where is parity not conserved? The whole world knows that it is in the weak interaction.

That was one of the greatest fundamental physics discoveries of the twentieth century.

Since the discovery of parity non-conservation, scientists have quickly discovered that particles and antiparticles do not behave exactly the same. They then concluded that it is precisely because of the slight asymmetry in the laws of physics that the charges of particles are asymmetric, causing the universe to At the beginning of the Big Bang, there was slightly more positive matter than antimatter.

If the laws of physics were strictly symmetrical, there would be no matter in the universe, and galaxies, planets, and life would cease to exist.

Everything exists because of symmetry breaking!

Tao gives birth to one, gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things, and all things carry yin and hold yang. If a great success is lacking, its use will not be disadvantageous; if a great gain is full, its use will be endless. He is as straight as he is bending, he is as skillful as he is clumsy, and he is as eloquent as he is. Impatience overcomes cold, tranquility overcomes heat, and purity is the right way for the world. It is damaged day by day, and it is damaged again and again, so that it leads to inaction, inaction and everything.

This is what "Laozi" said, but the Shenzhou civilization is based on the essence of various schools of thought, so Yue Yuanzhou generally uses it as a reading of the universe.

Because of this, he had an inexplicable thought of the similarities between them.

A lot of success is missing!

The universe is like a precision instrument. If one of the constants is slightly changed, the universe will not exist, but everything will appear because of the broken symmetry.

If there is no symmetry breaking, the world will lose its vitality, and it will be monotonous and dim, and there will be no living things.

At this time, Yue Yuanzhou inexplicably remembered a scientist, Yang. He existed in the universe before I traveled through it. He was a scientist on the same level as Einstein. It was he and Mr. Lee Tsung-dao who discovered the nonconservation of parity.

Yue Yuanzhou, who inexplicably recalled many related things, stood up, reached out and patted Long Lin's shoulder, and sighed something that made the latter feel very abrupt: "This is the greatness of basic science."

The reason why Long Lin felt strange was that he didn't know what Yue Yuanzhou was thinking.

Second, he didn't know that because of the non-conservation of parity, Yue Yuanzhou was able to destroy the dark plane of the Super God Universe and stand on the top of the Super God Universe. The Shenzhou civilization also began to be born at that time.

If the dark plane could not be destroyed at that time, Yue Yuanzhou might not be able to defeat the angels, demons, and the sun, let alone pull Karl into the chariot. Without these as a foundation, he would not be able to rise quickly. If he could not rise, it would be unclear whether the Shenzhou civilization could appear so early.

And it's the same now, because parity is not conserved, he can infer that the 'unknown cause' must be related to the weak interaction force.

Of course, there is another possibility. That's the case where the 'unknown reason' doesn't work. But if that happens, the universe that will be born must be a pure energy universe.

Not just a pure energy universe, but a universe without weak mutual forces.

If one of the four basic skills is missing, how can you still play mahjong? If you can't play mahjong happily, maybe that kind of universe won't exist.

Some people have said that you can still fight landlords.

Yes, you can.

But it is conceivable that the rules of such a universe must be very simple.

Because Landlord Fighting is far simpler than Mahjong, this is of course an inappropriate metaphor, but you might as well imagine it.

Scientific theories are always related to each other.

In this way, Yue Yuanzhou, who has a wealth of knowledge, discovered the antimatter universe, spread his thoughts to how the universe was born, and then related to the Big Bang theory.

Also because of the discovery of the antimatter universe, the theory that "the breaking of symmetry leads to the birth of the positive universe" has been confirmed by default but has not been confirmed.

Once established, another pure energy universe must be a certainty.

So it is logical to think of a universe where there are only three basic forces.

Yue Yuanzhou has never encountered such a universe, so he doesn't know. But he can make conjectures based on this discovery, and then build a theory based on the conjecture, and then obtain relevant feasible technologies from the theory.

Then, after the Shenzhou civilization reaches the god level or has the ability, it can use its god-like technology to create a small universe with only three basic forces.

So, simulate it again.

Regardless of whether it is successful or not, any data obtained is undoubtedly valuable data at the universe level, because it already involves the level of 'universe design'. Then a feasible method to explore the rules of the universe appears!

There is no doubt that this is the biggest gain from the discovery of the antimatter universe.

Although more specific methods are not yet available, the feasibility is already certain.

If you know you can do it and know the direction, then as long as you keep working hard, you will get it one day.

Just like a mushroom bomb, if there is no feasibility demonstration and no theoretical basis, no matter how rich and abundant the resources are, it will definitely not be possible.

Is crossing the river by feeling the stones the same as crossing the river by feeling the eagle sauce?

Now Yue Yuanzhou is like crossing the river by touching the stones, and then he feels the stones and knows that he can cross the river here. This marks that the road from Shenzhou civilization to a god-level civilization has officially been opened up through the second line of Ren and Du.
