Chapter 843 Fine Structure Constant

Tick!

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

In the empty conference room, there is no clutter except for a solemn table. Each table and chair is made of the finest mahogany. The double-sided lacquer painting on the screen depicts Shanghe River during the Qingming Festival, and the walls are inlaid with images of great powers. Thousands of miles of country.

The quartz clock on the wall in the center of the conference room, its sound that is accurate to every hour, every minute, and every second, is echoing crisply, never ending, without end, as if it is recording continuous but tiny Under the fragment of time and space, this small conference room belongs to the wonderful and great moments of mankind.

This is the country of Donghua.

A meeting room where guests from all over the world come.

But at this moment, the only ones who can step into this place are representatives of the three major countries.

Under the guidance of the dedicated personnel, three people entered the conference room one after another.

The first person to step inside was a tall, muscular middle-aged man with brown hair and blue eyes.

As soon as he entered the door, he scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, and then he sat carelessly on one of the chairs in the conference room.

He is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of North Russia and the commander of a group army in his country.

During the ten years of war, every time he went on a mission to a small country, he would let his special forces sneak in secretly and cooperate with him to carry out the beheading plan when he was on a mission to the small country's capital.

If the other party cooperates obediently, it will only kill thousands of people in the country's government. If they dare to resist, nuclear bombs will be sent to the country the next day.

With this arrogant and unreasonable diplomatic method, he blew up the South American countries in the oil region and dealt a fatal blow to the complete collapse of their currency-oil system.

"I didn't expect it was Minister Inov. I didn't expect you to be here. I wonder if you are interested in having a drink tonight?"

Followed closely behind was a blonde beauty with big waves. The breast buttons in front of her eyes could hardly cover her turbulent waves. Her red lips were sexy and charming. It was obviously a formal and serious uniform, but she was wearing a formal and serious uniform. A very tempting feeling.

"Haha, good! Good! Good! It is said that Ms. Desica is best at sleeping with men. I don't know how many country leaders she has conquered with her beauty. It just so happens that this general is here tonight to try her beauty!"

Yi Ruofu laughed loudly, put his hand around the woman's waist, and pressed her on her leg. The latter smiled sweetly at this moment, not caring at all.

"On this solemn occasion, you two should still pay attention. After all, this can reveal our long-standing aristocratic etiquette, right?"

As he spoke, a well-dressed, elegant man with gold-rimmed glasses walked in. He wore pure white gloves and was very polite in every detail, just like the rumored nobleman.

"Yes, in Eastern terms, you really have to give face to the so-called host."

Yirufu looked at the Western European Aaron in front of him, frowned, and pushed the blonde beauty on his lap away.

After all, the guy in front of me is not someone to be messed with. According to domestic intelligence, it seems that he was originally a killer, and then took charge of the intelligence and assassination organization in Western Europe. Every time he went to a small country, he was a key political figure in the country. The character died unexpectedly, which is considered to be an extraordinary coincidence.

Soldiers, killers, public relations... these people are almost impossible to become foreign ministers in peacetime, but in these war years, they are surprisingly reasonable, at least in the eyes of the small countries they exterminated, this is indeed the case.

"By the way, what does Donghua mean?" Daisyka looked around and said with a smile, "For calling us here at this time, could it be that you are willing to negotiate?"

"Open the country's market, cancel tariffs, establish concessions, divide territory... Even our great head of state cannot agree to such ridiculous conditions, let alone Donghua people?" Aaron adjusted his glasses on his nose. , said with great interest, "So the head of state is also very interested. At this critical moment, what is the significance of convening the United Nations General Assembly in Donghua?"

"Meaning? Naturally, it is a major event related to the survival of our human civilization."

A powerful voice sounded behind the three of them.

Looking back, I saw a middle-aged man striding towards me.

His demeanor is elegant and gentle, as if he is a young master from some family, but his face is resolute, and he has a military style when he walks, like a young and promising major general in ancient times.

"It turns out to be Ambassador Zhang. Now, do you still want to prevent this nuclear war?" Aaron said lightly, "But it is impossible for us to give up each other's interests. This is already an irreconcilable conflict. It is not a simple matter at all. It can be solved by a peaceful settlement."

"Indeed, simply persuading peace will not work." Ambassador Zhang walked to the crowd in one step, sat down, raised his hand to invite you to sit down, and then said in a deep voice, "The reason why we are at war with each other is because we are human beings. The internal conflicts between the two countries overwhelmed the need for external exploration, and the uneven distribution of interests ultimately led to this world war that is difficult to end. "

"But if external conflicts overwhelm internal disputes, this war may not necessarily end!"

"Oh? Then I'm curious, what crisis is facing all mankind now that can prevent the outbreak of this global nuclear war?" Desika touched her tall mountain peaks and smiled, "Cosmic rays, asteroid crashes Blue stars, super flares, supernova explosions, or miniature black holes in theory? At least according to the astronomy of our countries and the orbits of close stars, this phenomenon does not occur at all.”

"It may be more serious than cosmic disasters such as meteorite crashes, supernova explosions, and micro black holes." Ambassador Zhang looked grave at this moment and said, "If the former has a slight possibility of escape with the current technology of human civilization, But what's happening now..."

Having said this, Ambassador Zhang took a deep breath, and the three people in front of him looked at each other for an instant. As old rivals, they naturally knew that the other party was extremely nervous.

But among the cosmic natural disasters listed by humans that can destroy civilization, none are as good as the disasters mentioned by the other party. So what exactly happened, so that countless elites in this ancient Eastern country are deeply taboo about it? , and even think that this is a huge external contradiction that can make all mankind put aside hatred and unite.

As a result, the three of them heard this sentence from Ambassador Zhang:

"I wonder if you have ever heard of the [fine structure constant]?"

Um……

[Fine structure constant]?

When the three of them heard this, they instantly fell into deep thought. Their faces looked heavy and thoughtful, but they were confused inside.

It is true that they are outstanding diplomats. They are capable of killing, arson, public relations, instigation, and lurking... They are indeed top-notch experts.

But they only know this kind of professional term that obviously involves physics, but they don't understand its deep meaning.

But that’s okay.

The clothes they wore were originally equipped with micro-eavesdropping devices, and the artificial cochlea placed in their ears could also transmit sounds in real time. Behind them was a top think tank team belonging to the big country behind them.

All decisions will be analyzed by the think tank team and finally recommendations will be given.

"Fine structure constant?"

As soon as this statement came out, the think tank team behind it, the physicists, couldn't help but frown.

The so-called [fine structure constant] (α) was proposed by German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld when he introduced quantum physics in 1916.

At that time, in order to simplify the calculation when analyzing the "fine structure" of the spectrum of hydrogen atoms, the German physicist Sommerfeld combined several physical constants that were always combined in the same form, namely the basic charge, Planck's constant and the speed of light, to form the fine structure constant.

In physics, these three constants represent electromagnetic interaction, quantum theory and relativity respectively.

Therefore, since its birth, it has suddenly become an extremely important constant in physics and even the universe. Like an emperor, it controls all changes in the universe from gravity to quantum particle reactions. The smallest reactions rely on His influence is reflected in even the most eccentric disciplines.

Its most unique feature is that this constant is universal among all intelligent civilizations in this universe, because it itself is dimensionless.

A dimension, in layman's terms, is a unit of measurement.

The seven basic physical quantities stipulated today are the seven "dimensions". They are:

Length, mass, temperature, current, time, quantity and light intensity,

It is the foundation of human civilization and the tool left by mankind to climb the peak of physics. All human sciences are born on this basis.

This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!

But the problem is that this is a tool unique to human civilization. They are measurements defined by humans, and among other alien civilizations, their definitions of the seven dimensions are not necessarily the same.

However, the fine structure constant is different, because it does not need to unify the weights and measures of the universe, nor does it need any measurement unit, because as long as it involves or transcends the stage of geophysics, no matter which civilization it is, no matter the dimensions are different , we can finally calculate this dimensionless constant easily.

Generally speaking, this constant is likely to be one of the cosmological constants recognized by all intelligent civilizations in the basic rules of this universe.

When the ambassador of the ancient Eastern country talked about this disaster, he mentioned this constant... What does it mean?

"So... what kind of constant is this? Is there anything wrong with it?"

Yirufu asked with confusion on his face.

"The problem is big." Ambassador Zhang said slowly at this moment, "Because we have observed that the [fine structure constant]... is jumping."

“Oh God, what kind of joke is this Oriental kid on?!”

"Are you kidding us?"

"This is impossible. If this constant jumped, our human civilization would have disappeared in an instant that could not be noticed. There would be no words like "observe" at all!"

As soon as Ambassador Zhang finished speaking, a deafening sound of popping sound came from the listening devices hidden in the ears of several foreign ambassadors.

Obviously, the think tank team behind them was very uneasy after hearing this word.

Brothers who often create the world should all know that the universe was born from a singularity. In an indescribable moment, the speed of light expanded into today's universe.

But has anyone thought about this question:

Is it inevitable that the universe has expanded to what it is today?

In other words, will the singularity 100% explode into an environment suitable for carbon-based organisms such as humans or silicon-based organisms that exist somewhere in the universe?

Apparently not.

This universe that is suitable for the survival of carbon-based and silicon-based organisms was born by chance. It has reached a very demanding level for physical quantities such as density, temperature, pressure, space-time curvature, quantum fluctuations, and parity non-conservation.

It is precisely under these very demanding numbers that the macroscopic dimension is three, the gravitational constant is 1.67 times 10 to the negative 11th power, the speed of light in a vacuum is 300,000 kilometers per second, the electron charge is 1.602 times 10 to the negative 19th power Coulomb, and the Planck constant is 6.626... A series of conditions in the universe can meet the survival of humans and all intelligent life in the entire universe.

And these extremely demanding and extremely precise numbers form a calculated fine structure constant, which is an extremely special value of this universe, 1/137. In other words, if this universe has a number, it should be universe number 137.

Therefore, the fine structure constant represents the wisdom and civilization of mankind and even the universe, physics, science, and even the foundation of the entire universe. If there is a problem with this number...

"Let me interrupt."

Aaron from Western Europe raised his hand at this moment, looked at Ambassador Zhang, and said word by word.

As the origin of science in the past, the West has a very deep understanding of this thing that was studied by its ancestors.

"Do scientists in your country know the meaning of the fine structure constant?"

"Of course I know, there is no doubt about this." Ambassador Zhang's tone was absolutely certain.

"Then do you know the meaning of jump?"

"Of course."

"In that case." Aaron's tone became stern at this moment. "Then can these two words be put together?!"

"We also find it incredible, but this is the fact."

Ambassador Zhang was silent for a moment, and said in a heavy tone:

"After learning this result, in order to verify this absurd conclusion we have obtained, our country has invested a huge amount of money, and has measured the fine structure constant again and again in hundreds of top scientific laboratories across the country, and has also used the most advanced heterogeneous supercomputers to ensure the accuracy of the results."

"But after measuring again and again, we finally came to the conclusion that the fine structure constant belonging to this universe is jumping for reasons we cannot understand, and the direction of its jump is exactly zero."

"In other words, our universe, which is about 13.77 billion years old, has an observable diameter of about 93 billion light years, carries countless stars, and has nurtured countless civilizations, is...returning to zero." (End of this chapter)
