Chapter 1221 - Mass Does Not Expand, It Just Flows on Invisible Strings

Chapter 1221: Mass Does Not Expand, It Just Flows on Invisible Strings

The lecture hall was like a pressurized pot of boiling water, exploding in an instant.

People were shocked, and they exchanged looks with horror in their eyes. They were at a loss.

Because of the observation, the quantum superposition state collapsed and a series of chain effects were triggered. This caused the mass to move from n+1 dimension to below n dimension.

Does this mean that there are “people” outside the box watching us?

That sounds ridiculous...

Also sounds scary.

It was like there was a camera far away, watching their every move. By using an invisible filter, they were able to screen their favorite intelligent civilizations.

And now, through this filter, they had discovered the existence of humans.

What did this mean?

Nobody knew.

Because of this, people had looks of panic on their eyes.

The calmest person was Fernando, sitting in the front row.

Perhaps his fearlessness was brought about by ignorance. Compared to the physicists present, he did not fully understand what Lu Zhou was talking about. He was only able to capture a few keywords.

“The Void?

“So in other words, the spirit of the universe actually exists?”

The eyes of this tiny man lit up.

It was as if he was seeing hope...

On the stage of the lecture hall.

Lu Zhou didn’t pay attention to the chaos in the lecture hall. He wrote his argumentation process on the whiteboard without any hesitation.

[...Mπ2=(1/2)(mu+md)<0|ΨΨ|0>/Fπ2]

[<0|Aμa(x)|πb(p)>=ipμFπδabe-ipx]

[...]

Professor Witten, who was sitting in the audience, locked his eyes on the lines of calculations on the whiteboard. His pupils shrank slightly.

Just a few minutes ago, when he heard Lu Zhou’s theory about extra strings and observers outside the horizon, he had a look of disagreement on his face.

However, after seeing these calculations, the look on his face gradually changed.

Perlmutter was sitting next to Professor Witten. He had an anxious look on his face. He looked around at his colleagues before coughing and speaking.

“His calculations seem to be a bit difficult to understand...”

Actually, he was understating this fact.

Ever since the fifth line of calculations on the second whiteboard, Professor Perlmutter was totally lost.

In fact, as an astrophysicist, he should have a good understanding of mathematics. Even though his understanding was more focused on the applied mathematics side, he had never been this confused before.

He was totally baffled by what was written on the whiteboard.

He even began to wonder whether the lines of calculations were even considered mathematics, or whether his knowledge was completely out of date.

“It is a bit difficult to understand.” Professor Witten frowned and said, “It involves many theories from topology and algebraic geometry, especially from the unified theory of algebraic geometry... I haven’t researched mathematics in many years, I can’t even fully understand it.”

“Even you can’t?” Perlmutter opened his eyes in surprise and said, “Who can prove whether he’s right or wrong then?”

Witten shook his head and looked at the figure standing on the stage. He watched the lines of calculations appear on the whiteboard and said, “I don’t know...

“Let’s just see what happens.”

It was far easier to pick mistakes from a theory than to prove its correctness.

Perhaps they could ask other mathematicians for help.

Honestly, Witten was not worried about the same thing Perlmutter was worrying about.

Professor Witten had trust in Lu Zhou’s own character and in his academic strength. He was convinced that Lu Zhou would definitely not present unrefined things to anyone.

From this alone, Witten was at least 80% confident that Lu Zhou’s theory was true...

On the other side of the lecture hall.

Luo Wenxuan, the Secretary-General of the ILHCRC, also had a surprised look on his face.

Although he was a mathematician, he was in no better position than other people.

The complicated calculations gave him a headache. Even though he was not completely lost, his slow analytical ability made it impossible to keep up with Lu Zhou’s rhythm.

By the time he understood what one of the calculations meant and what role it played in the whole argumentation process, a dozen new calculations appeared on the whiteboard.

He couldn’t help but wonder whether Lu Zhou was even thinking about the calculations. He felt like Lu Zhou was writing down all of the steps purely by muscle memory alone.

That was a scary thought.

Sitting next to him was Academician Lu Shenjian, who had his eyes glued to the whiteboard. Academician Lu Shenjian suddenly spoke.

“From today onward, the path of physics will be completely rewritten.”

Luo Wenxuan was shocked. He looked at the old man and asked, “You understand his proof?”

Academician Lu: “No, why?”

Luo Wenxuan: “Then why do you say that?”

Academician Lu thought for a bit and answered, “This... is a kind of scientific intuition.”

Luo Wenxuan: “...”

Lu Zhou didn’t care about the reactions on the faces of the audience. The pen in his hand trembled. He completely forgot about time and space, as well as the pairs of eyes behind him. All of his concentration was completely focused on the problem at hand.

According to the data collected by the ILHCRC in the energy range from 5.12 TeV to 5.17 TeV, by establishing a phenomenological model for analysis, he could infer that the “maximum mass transfer” phenomenon would occur when the collision energy reached 7.17 TeV~7.74 TeV, while a violent collapse would occur near the 8 TeV energy level.

If they couldn’t understand where the mystery behind this phenomenon came from, physics would stagnate.

After all, building a collider was not an easy task.

If all of physics lost its meaning in the higher energy zones, then human civilization would have fallen into a trap. It would be very difficult for human civilization to release itself from this trap.

This was like a filter, brutally sieving the entire universe, weeding out those ants that could not pass the obstacles and deterring the ants that could pass the obstacles by announcing their existence.

The most frightening thing was that this filter also existed in the old universe. It was very likely that the civilization or individual that set up the filter was from a different civilization than The Observer.

Lu Zhou was afraid that the existence of this filter was not so friendly...

Lu Zhou wrote down the last full stop and put down his pen. He turned around and faced the lecture hall.

Most people had not yet recovered from the shock. They were staring at the whiteboard, trying to understand the mystery behind the lines of calculations.

Even though he didn’t want to interrupt the train of thought of hundreds of audience members, he had to give a conclusion.

Lu Zhou cleared his throat and spoke.

“The proof ends here.

“What we are facing might be worse than we had imagined.

“Let’s return to the original topic, which is, the spirit of the universe.

“It can’t prove its existence with the current technology, so I don’t want to discuss too much. Whether there’s conscious determinism or material determinism, time will answer this question.

“I can see that this might become a very controversial topic in the coming centuries.”

Lu Zhou looked at the silent venue. He gently put down the marker in his hand and continued to speak with a serious tone, “However, as a physicist, I hope that the debate on this issue stays in the field of philosophy. Until we can use scientific methods to prove its existence, we should put the controversy aside.

“As for the Void, the extra dimension beyond the nth dimension...”

After a pause, Lu Zhou looked back at the whiteboard behind him and said, “My proof states that this is the only explanation for where the mass increase came from and where it went to. Mass does not just disappear in a vacuum. It merely falls from the n+1 dimension to our dimension.

“As for whether a consciousness agent controls it, as I said earlier, this question is irrelevant to physics at this stage.”

There were whispers in the venue.

People exchanged looks of disbelief, hoping to get answers from the expressions on the faces of other colleagues. However, even though the world’s top minds were gathered here, very few were able to understand the obscure proof process on the whiteboard.

The Q&A session began.

To Lu Zhou’s surprise, no one actually raised their hands.

He began to reflect on whether the theory he explained earlier was too advanced when suddenly a man stood up.

“Your theory proves that the virtual world described by Professor Galette Miro is real!”

Fernando had an excited look on his face. He looked at Lu Zhou and spoke in a louder voice.

“It also proves that the spirit of the universe is everywhere and omnipotent.”

This sudden interruption livened up the atmosphere.

Fernando listened to the bursts of laughter coming from behind, and he blushed as he started to feel angry.

Had it not been for the policeman next to him, he would have never shown such restraint.

Lu Zhou didn’t laugh at Fernando. Instead, he spoke patiently.

“I’m afraid you don’t know, that when Professor Galette Miro described the virtual world, he borrowed his theory from my theory of extra dimensions. Of course, he wouldn’t tell you that. After all, these things are quite difficult to understand.”

“You little sh*t!”

Fernando clenched his fist. He was about to walk onto the stage, but he was blocked by the police officer.

Lu Zhou ignored his actions and said, “Yes, I did prove that the Void exists, and it is everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

“But to say that it is omnipotent... That is not possible.

“I will prove this.” Lu Zhou looked at the audience in the lecture hall. He gently tidied up the draft paper on the lecture table and continued in a calm and powerful voice, “ILHCRC’s next experiment will collide hydrogen ions at an energy level of 10 TeV.

“I will prove that the Void is not omnipotent.”
