Chapter 505 Anthony: No one knows Maxwell better than me!

  Lin En regained his composure, recovered from his conjectures about the 'spell-casting obstacle', and asked with a slightly worried voice. "What does Parliament think now? Have they thought of a way to stop this riot?"

  Philip shook his head helplessly. In fact, the parliament is now in chaos. Such a sudden loss of the ability to perceive a certain element has never happened in the history of magic.

   It is said that Chairman Vittorio called a lot of them, and conducted physical and mental inspections on them, but there is no new discovery yet.

  The only thing that is certain is that all of these people have questioned the nature of optoelectronics, and many people have even directly participated in the discussion of the wave-particle debate and published several papers in newspapers.

   After a pause, Philip continued to speak. "Many wizards who support the particle theory now propose to ban the wave theory to prevent the 'spell-casting disorder' from spreading..."

Members of Parliament are also considering this suggestion. After all, the impact of this dispute is too great. This kind of weird "spell-casting obstacle" makes many wizards feel terrified. Even several speakers have expressed worry.

  Although the main force of the church has already collapsed, Ella, who fled outside the territory, has always been a great threat.

  The thunder technique is now a very key force in the entire magic system. It has a great advantage in the transmission of information, and the derived electromagnetic field is also an important factor in restraining nuclear power!

   "So the speakers asked me to ask for your suggestions." Philip said cautiously.

   "No, you must not do this! Tell them that I am clearly opposed to the theory of banning fluctuations!" Lynn directly vetoed it. "We are not a church, and we cannot stop normal magic research and discussion..."

   "And... now it's too late to ban!"

After nearly two months of disputes, coupled with the operation of the two sects to pull heads and endorse each other, nearly 70% of the great wizards and the sects they led were involved, and those who were watching the excitement, In the end, it was inexplicable to suffer from the thunder wizard and the frightening obstacle to casting spells, which made this dispute even more well-known.

  Even if they banned the wave theory on the surface, they still can't stop the wizards from conducting research in private, so it's better to let them argue openly, and the collision of ideas can also help break the rules.

  However, Lynn also asked Philip to return to the parliament and let them manipulate public opinion to control the intensity of the dispute a little bit, so as not to cause large-scale **** conflicts.

   This is not impossible. There have never been fewer conflicts caused by academic disputes in the history of magic.

For example, more than 20 years ago, the debate on the origin of the fire element almost caused the two opposing schools to merge. In the end, the great wizard Arad relied on the newly developed six-ring magic [Fire Element Storm] and defeated him in a duel. Only by defeating the opponent can the opponent be "convinced".

  Even in the previous life, the dispute over the wave-particle nature of light caused a group of bigwigs listed in textbooks to spray each other for three hundred years!

  The reason is that the contradiction between the two theories is almost irreconcilable if it is demonstrated by common sense.

  What is a wave?

   is a physical quantity or a disturbance of a physical quantity that propagates in a specific form in space.

   To put it more simply, in the eyes of wizards, this thing is a continuous and indivisible existence.

  Particles refer to the smallest material components that can exist in a free state, one by one!

  Because of this, because you can't say that a thing is continuous and discrete, the brain can't imagine that existence at all, just like you can't say that a cat is both alive and dead...

  However, the microcosm is such a torture, and it is necessary to completely abandon the so-called common sense of the macrocosm in order to gain a glimpse of its mysteries.

  Lin En shook his head, and couldn't help looking at the manuscript on the table.

   During this period of time, he has also carried out preliminary research and experiments in the microscopic field. He wanted to find an opportunity to publish some papers first, but now the inexplicable "spell-casting disorder" made him hesitate.

  If these research results on quantum superposition and entanglement are released, the impact will not only be as simple as the thunder wizards, maybe a large number of elemental wizards will directly lose the ability to cast spells.

  That is the real magic crisis!

  Lin En was thinking about it, when a strong Gardner Falcon suddenly flew in through the wide-open window and stayed on the desk, with a white letter hanging on his feet.

  Lin En recognized it as a communication eagle at a glance.

Although the temporary communication base stations composed of patrol airships have spread all over the mainland, realizing national emergency communication within 15 minutes, some secret messages are not convenient to be transmitted by this method, and many schools still keep captivity. A tradition of communicating with communication eagles.

  Philip on the side noticed a lightning mark engraved on the beautiful feathers on the right side of the Gardner Falcon.

   "This logo should belong to Master Anthony, right?" Philip said with great interest. In recent days, the founder of the "Electrotherapy Induction Method" and the inventor of the photoelectric effect have become famous.

  As a leading figure in the theory of light particles, he actually turned around to believe in the wave theory, which made many wizards watching the excitement dumbfounded.

  Philip's heart is also more inclined to the theory of light particles, and he really can't understand why the other party suddenly made such a crazy move. Perhaps the truth lies in this letter.

  Lin En then took the tightly sealed letter, and after passing the identification magic on the envelope, he began to read it.

In this letter, Anthony explained in detail their research on the electric field and magnetic field during this period, and said that he had cracked the fourth formula of Maxwell's equations, and deduced an amazing fact from it—light It is an electromagnetic wave with a unique frequency.

   And successfully used this method to create light!

   "No wonder..." Lynn smiled. He could imagine Anthony's emotions of collapse and surprise at the time. Now that he understands that only electromagnetic waves, it is not difficult to understand why he suddenly chose to embrace wave theory.

In addition, in the letter, Anthony flattered him fiercely, saying that these research results were derived based on his Maxwell equations and calculus formulas, and then euphemistically stated that he had discovered a new explanation The model of the internal structure of the elements may be slightly different from the star orbit formula he proposed before...

  Lynn of course knew that this subtle difference was probably a big difference. The purpose of Anthony's letter was obviously to test his tone.

   It is estimated that I am worried that I will oppose it, or even use my influence to block it, so let me ask my opinion first.

  Lynn shook his head amusedly. After thinking for a while, he wrote a reply letter, affirming Anthony's research results in the electromagnetic field, and expressing his support for Anthony's proposal of a more novel atomic model to explain microscopic phenomena.

  At the end, I added the hint that "light and electricity do have certain wave properties, but the particle characteristics they exhibit cannot be ignored".

   Philip, who was extremely curious in his heart, glanced at the content of the letter quietly, and then his pupils constricted, just seeing the last sentence that Lynn was writing, and his heart was shocked.

   Could it be that Master Dean also supports the wave theory?

  On the other side, Lynn had already put the envelope away and tied it to the communication eagle's feet.

   Seeing this, Philip hurriedly said goodbye and left, but he was still a little uneasy after walking out of the room. Even if he wanted to use the electromagnetic communication magic to discuss it with a few of his friends.

  However, the spellcasting failed this time...

  Philip opened his eyes suddenly, his face turned pale for a while, and he suddenly found that he could no longer perceive electric charges and magnetic fields.

   "It's over..." Philip murmured to himself, and he was actually infected with the 'fluctuating plague'!

  …

   A few hours later, in the City of Fire Oil, in a luxurious manor.

  The two great wizards at the center of the vortex of public opinion, Anthony and Jeffrey, gathered here.

   "Do you think Speaker Lynn will approve of our wave theory?" Jeffrey asked a little uneasy.

  In his opinion, the biggest obstacle to the wave theory is undoubtedly the star of magic!

Thanks to the photoelectric effect proposed by Anthony, these two things are tied together, and someone has a whim and plans to use the wave theory to re-improve the model of the internal structure of the element. serious conflicts between theories.

   Regarding this, Jeffrey was also very helpless, and even doubted whether it was the right choice to allow Anthony to join the Optical Wave School.

  Know that the Parliament has been considering awarding Speaker Lynn a second Corona Medal in recognition of his outstanding contributions in the fields of elements and optics.

   At such a critical time, they stepped in and said that some of the magic star's research ideas were wrong. Who wouldn't feel annoyed by this?

   Jeffrey has no doubt that Speaker Lynn can block the wave theory he has painstakingly researched with just one sentence. The influence of the other party in the field of magic is really too great!

The law of free fall, universal gravitation, the calculation of the speed of light, the deflection force of the earth's rotation... It can be said that the rapid development of magic in recent years is entirely dependent on the various magic theories put forward by this magic star, and these theories have almost never been published before. miss!

   "It should be." Anthony replied hesitantly, his photoelectric theory was originally derived from Maxwell's equations.

  Light is electromagnetic waves, he can think of it, Lynn who told him this formula should also be able to think of it.

  Although he said so, Anthony was still a little uncertain. After all, it was not easy for an authoritative figure in magic to admit that his research theory was wrong and give up the glory that was easily obtained.

  Worried, a sharp cry resounded over the manor, Anthony raised his head and saw his messenger flying back.

   "Look quickly!" Jeffrey was also very eager. The Gardel eagle had just landed, so he hurriedly asked Anthony to check the letter.

  Anthony's movements were also not slow. After deciphering the warning magic arranged above, he opened the letter. After reading it for a while, the expression on his face gradually changed from solemn to relaxed.

   "How is it?" Jeffrey asked.

   "It's done!" Anthony's words calmed Jeffrey's restless heart, and then handed over the letter without caring.

  Jeffrey took it over, glanced carefully, and after seeing the last sentence 'light and electricity do have a certain wave nature', a little smile appeared on his face.

   As for the second half of the sentence, Jeffrey didn't pay much attention to it. You can't expect the star of magic to admit that his elemental model is wrong in the letter, right? How many have to find a step down, right?

  In fact, it was completely beyond Jeffrey's expectations that Speaker Lynn could so straightforwardly agree with the wave theory!

   "As I said before, Speaker Lynn is very open-minded, and he is not the kind of person who is stubborn and stumbling to suppress people who oppose theories." Anthony said with a smile.

  He remembered that this magic star had publicly stated many times that anyone was welcome to use rigorous experimental results to refute his magic theory.

Jeffrey smiled wryly. No one can say polite words. His wave theory has encountered a lot of obstacles in the parliament. Most of the members are staunch supporters of the particle theory. If it weren't for Anthony's sudden betrayal, the current situation It will only be more difficult!

   "Master Jeffrey!" An apprentice knocked on the door and walked in, interrupting the conversation between the two, and then respectfully reported. "We have just received a notice from the parliament that this year's academic seminar will be held half a month in advance."

   "It seems that the parliament can't wait any longer!" Anthony raised his eyebrows, but that's right, more than half of the thunder wizards have lost the ability to sense electric charges, and the speakers can't help but be in a hurry.

   Jeffrey nodded slightly, and it was time to end this long-lasting dispute.

  What fluctuating plague, he thinks it should be called particle imbalance disease!

  …

  Two weeks passed in a flash. Since the shocking news that Anthony, a key figure in the particle theory, suddenly switched to the wave theory, the public opinion in the entire Magic Kingdom has strangely calmed down.

This is naturally because the parliament has increased the review system of newspapers. At least the scolding battles like before can no longer be published in major newspapers. If you want to publish arguments about optics and electricity, you must be rigorous. logical derivation or experimental demonstration.

   As a result, even the sales of newspapers have decreased a lot, making the editors of major newspapers sigh.

   But this calmness is obviously only on the surface, and the dispute is still going on behind the scenes, but the two schools are accumulating strength, ready to completely refute their opponents at this year's academic seminar...

   Under such an undercurrent, September quietly arrived, and tens of thousands of wizards from the entire continent rushed to the capital, preparing to participate in the most grand academic event in history!
