Into Unscientific

  Chapter 295 The Aura Research reopened after 12 years!

be honest.

  Since the two parties have known each other.

  Xu Yun's feelings for the girl Avelyn are actually quite complicated.

Of course.

  The complexity here is not about the love between men and women, but in other aspects.

  First of all, the .

  In the original history, she didn't exist at all.

   That's right.

does not exist.

  Because Lilani didn't leave any descendants—not even in real history.

  In the deduction, Lilani, in search of Xu Yun, finally died in a shipwreck heading to the Netherlands. He was less than 20 years old before his death.

  In real history, Lilani became a nun when she grew up, and died of liver cancer at the age of 44.

  Therefore, there is no such person as Evelyn Escue in real history, and her appearance can be said to be inextricably linked to Xu Yun.

   It can be said that it was because of the letter Xu Yun sent that Aveline appeared.

  In addition to the regret for Lilani in the deduction, and the joy of learning that the calf has offspring alive.

   And the accident after Avelyn pointed out the bug of photovoltaics

  All kinds of factors were intertwined, which finally caused Xu Yun's feelings for Avelyn to be somewhat subtle.

   Unexpectedly, at today's Christmas dinner, Avelyn actually wrote down her desire to go to the East.

  This makes the whole situation more subtle and complicated.

Of course.

  As a Wang with a strong engineering background, Xu Yun naturally wouldn't be so narcissistic that he thought that Avelyn wrote this sentence because she liked her.

  In reality, there may be that kind of humanoid self-propelled hormones, and a smile can arouse the favor of others.

  But the name of this kind of person may be called reader, may be called leader, but it is absolutely impossible to be called Xu Yun.

  If he expected well.

  The reason why Avelyn wanted to go to the East was probably to fulfill her long-cherished wish of meeting Lilani and the Mavericks.

  After all, the name Dongfang or Fat Fish can be said to have changed the fate of the entire Escu family.

  Back then Xu Yun once said that he was from Fujian, perhaps it was also recorded somewhere in the form of a memo.

  As for the pronunciation of ‘hujian’, it falls into the category of trivial details. Do you know how many people would call the word “hujian” even in 2022?

  Aveline didn't add the word "braised in soy sauce" in front of it. To be honest, she was already very worthy of Xu Yun.

   Then Xu Yun put away his notebook and was about to say something to finish.

  However, before the words came out, I heard Avelyn on the side say first:

   "It's up to you next, classmate Luo Feng."

  Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, and the words he had prepared were stuck in his throat:

"I?"

   Avelyn nodded, cast a reasonable look at him, and said:

   "Isn't that what you said, everyone at the scene must write down their expectations."

   "Now that we've finished writing, only you and Sylph are left."

   "Sylph is still young, and she has no concept of life planning and dreams, and she is not very literate, so she doesn't have to write."

   "But your mother."

  Following Aveline's words, Mai Mai on the side immediately booed:

   "That's right, Mr. Luo Feng, this is a rule you set, you can't pretend to be stupid, those who pretend to be stupid will eat an axe."

  Old Tang on the opposite side did not speak.

   His shoulders sank, he took out an ax from under the chair, and silently put it on the table.

  Xu Yun:

  “.”

   This is considered digging a hole for someone, but it ended up digging on yourself?

   A few seconds passed.

  Looking at the covetous people around him, Xu Yun sighed resignedly.

   Returning to his seat with his head drooping, he picked up a pen and paper and began to write.

   Just as soon as he wrote, he paused again.

  What should I write?

  Don't say ten or twenty years now, he only has about ten months left in the dungeon.

   That is to say, on the day they agreed to reunite, Xu Yun would have returned to reality a long time ago, so he definitely couldn't make it to the scene.

   In addition, I am a descendant, and in this era, I actually don't have any expectations.

  But if you write the content of later generations, let’s not talk about whether Xiaomai and the others can understand it in the future.

  Think here.

  A flash of light suddenly flashed in Xu Yun's heart, he lowered his head, and began to write in his notebook.

   After about ten minutes.

  He put down his pen, held his notebook and came to Lao Tang, and said:

   "Mr. Thomson, since I am the initiator of this 'game', it shouldn't be a problem for me to make a reasonable request, right?"

  Lao Tang looked up at him, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and asked:

"any request?"

  Xu Yun raised the notebook in his hand and said:

   "Mr. Thomson, I will not disclose the contents of the notebook for the time being today, and we will open it together when we meet in the future, is that okay?"

   "I can guarantee that when we reunite, everyone will watch it together, it will be much more interesting than making it public now."

  Old Tang was taken aback when he heard the words.

   Good guy.

   Can you still play like this?

  He subconsciously wanted to refute, but before he could say "how can that be done", he thought of another thing:

   This is Xu Yun's first request to himself since he met him.

   And before that.

  I already owe him a large sum of favors, plus a life

  Think here.

  Old Tang hesitated for a moment, glanced at the people at the table, and finally said:

   "Since that's the case, Luo Feng, let's do as you say."

  Xu Yun nodded, his face didn't change much.

  Lao Tang's reaction was within his expectations, and he wasn't worried about Lao Tang or others peeping.

  These few people who came to the scene were all of the best character, basically able to kill a group of Mavericks in seconds, and they would not do such dirty things as peeping.

  Second comes

   What he left behind was not words, but something else.

  Even if someone peeks at the content now, it will be impossible to crack it within ten months—unless that person is also a time traveler.

all in all.

   Now that things have come to this point, there is only one remaining link:

  Agreement on the next meeting time.

  Hubert Airy has a relatively outgoing personality, so he was the first to raise his hand and reported a certain time first:

   "What do you think of Christmas ten years from now? The integer year is easy to remember."

   "Ten years later."

  Lao Tang's fingers tapped on the table a few times, and he exchanged glances with Riemann and the others, and they shook their heads in unison:

  “Ten years later, half of us will be under 30 years old, and only Kirchhoff and I will be over 35 years old. The time to complete the goal is still a bit short.”

   Then Avelyn thought about it, and also reported a number:

   "So what about fifteen years from now?"

fifteen years.

  Besides Sylph, the youngest person on the scene is Tian Haosuo, who is 18 years old this year.

   Followed by wheat, 19 years old this year.

  Fifteen years later, one of them was 33, one was 34, and the others were approaching forty.

   Except that Lao Tang’s president of the Royal Society is more difficult, other plans should be able to be completed theoretically.

   So soon, everyone had a bottom in their hearts.

  However, before they had time to express their views, a voice suddenly appeared from the side:

   "In that case, what about July 20, 1866?"

  Everyone looked along the trend.

   As expected, the person who spoke was Xu Yun.

   "July 20, 1866?"

  Lao Tang repeated the time, and said to Xu Yun curiously:

   "Luo Feng, why is it set at such a time? It doesn't seem easy to remember, right?"

  Xu Yun glanced at Riemann beside him calmly, thought for a moment, and said with a smile:

   "Mr. Thomson, I'm afraid you don't know something."

   "According to the Eastern astronomical algorithm, July 20, 1866 should be a very auspicious day."

   "This day is very suitable for a reunion after a long absence, and it can also bless you and your health, so I personally recommend choosing this day."

Do not know why.

  When Xu Yun said the word 'auspicious',

  Riemann on the side suddenly panicked, feeling an inexplicable feeling.

  It seems like a ghost with a long tongue is licking and licking the back of the neck.

   "Auspicious day?"

  But Lao Tang didn't notice Riemann's abnormality, but pondered for a moment, and asked everyone:

   "What are your intentions?"

  Everyone at the scene, except Sylph, has experienced all kinds of miracles brought by Xu Yun, and psychologically they have no brains to believe Xu Yun's signs.

   In addition, there is basically no difference between 1866 and 1865, so everyone at the scene quickly made choices:

"I have no opinion."

"I agree."

"Seconded."

   "Ah yes yes yes!"

   After determining the time and place of the reunion.

  Xu Yun turned his gaze slightly, and glanced at Riemann beside him.

  As a person with a great sense of ritual, when he has the initiative, he personally likes to make troubles at some special time points.

  Looking at the crowd at the scene.

  In the next two decades, the most representative time point is undoubtedly July 20, 1866.

   There is no other reason.

because this is

  In the original history, the day when Riemann died of illness.

   Exactly.

  The man who created Riemannian geometry and left seven millennium problems died at the age of forty.

To know.

  Even the unlucky guy named Mai lived 48 years in his life.

  Therefore, there is such a saying in later generations:

  If Riemann hadn't died young, his status might be able to truly match that of Gauss.

  In the history of mathematics, there are many people who can apply similar templates, such as Abel, Gavaro, Ramanujan and so on.

  But the most convincing and most applicable to this sentence is undoubtedly Riemann.

Of course.

   Now that Xu Yun has traveled to this timeline and has had an intersection with Riemann, it is naturally impossible to sit back and watch this mathematician die young.

  Riemann's cause of death was tuberculosis, which included congenital lung disease and further infection that occurred later.

   In the case of making a "deal" with Liszt.

  Xu Yun didn’t say that he could help Riemann live for 40 or 50 years, at least it’s not difficult to ensure that he can live to 50 years old.

   Maybe even longer if the circumstances are ideal.

   So naturally.

  Riemann's original death time can be successfully used as a party day.

   This is the sense of ritual.

  Actually, at the beginning, Xu Yun's idea was to choose the date of death of wheat.

   But that would have to wait until 1879, which is 29 years later, obviously not suitable for the first meeting.

   So in desperation.

  Xu Yun had no choice but to choose the "good day" of July 20, 1866.

  Anyway, the mood of the deceased is currently very stable.

  But after thinking about it, Xu Yun's eyes darkened again, and he sighed slightly:

such a pity.

  I will definitely miss that reunion

   I don’t know what will happen to everyone at that time?

  At that time, the East will be in various situations?

   Then Xu Yun shook his head and brought his thoughts back to reality.

all in all.

  With such a future event booked, there was only one thing left at the dinner party:

   That's eating!

  The ingredients prepared by Laotang this time are very fresh, without any signs of decay.

  For example, Mouse Ban was still alive and kicking before Xu Yun took the knife.

   Chicken giblets and the like are not bad either.

  The pig's large intestine is even more so. Keke, I won't talk about this.

  In short, Xiaomai was very happy after washing his intestines, and even cried twice with joy, one of which subconsciously wiped his tears with the hand that was washing his intestines

  Including Xu Yun, a half-life cook who stayed in England for a year later, a Chinese meal with a reduction degree of about 56.75215% appeared in Cambridge University in 1850.

   Mai Mai and the others, who had never eaten such delicacies, were eye-opening. They were all like Grandma Liu who strayed into the Baihutang and pulled up the weeping willows. They were curious and at the same time grabbed the dishes crazily.

  In the end, even Avelyn rolled up her sleeves and kept picking up fish fillets from the bottom of the pot.

   An hour and a half later.

  Only leftovers were left on the table.

at the same time.

  Outside the window, a firework suddenly shot up from the ground, turning into colorful light rain in the night sky.

  In the cathedrals of Trinity College on the ground, the finale of the second part of "Messiah" by Georg Friedrich Handel also sounded.

   This song can be considered a classic song. If you only listen to the introduction of the above works, you may not be familiar with it.

   But if the description is changed to "Hallelujah" which is similar to "Love Me China", there must be not many people who don't know this song

Of course.

   Strictly speaking.

   "Love My China" did not copy the song "Hallelujah", because the melodies of the two are written differently.

  One is 1565 and the other is 3121.

  But because the intervals are similar, it sounds like the same.

   As for whether the former refers to the latter in the process of composing, it is hard to say, only the creator himself knows.

  This is actually the reason why it is difficult to define the so-called "plagiarism" in the music industry-you don't know whether his subjective intention is a coincidence or deliberate.

   Then everyone went to the window together to watch the fireworks.

  Xu Yun doesn’t feel much about the festival of Christmas itself, but watching fireworks with friends on a snowy night in winter is somewhat heartwarming.

   Well, it would be better if those guys under the window stopped throwing.

  The fireworks lasted for half an hour.

   Then everyone packed up the tableware together, and they parted.

   Nothing to say all night.

   Well known.

  Christmas is equivalent to the Spring Festival in Europe, and its status is extremely important, even higher than Easter.

   Therefore, for a period of time around Christmas, major universities in Europe usually choose to have a holiday.

   is commonly known as the Christmas holiday.

  The Christmas holiday in Cambridge generally lasts about forty days, starting from the beginning of December and ending around January 20.

  But now that the United Kingdom is preparing to launch military expansion abroad, there is an urgent need for talent supply in all aspects, and even Cambridge University has expanded its enrollment.

   Therefore, this year's Christmas holiday not only postponed the start time, but also shortened the overall period of the holiday.

  Xu Yun and the others started their vacation four days ago, and will officially resume their studies on January 8th.

   All in all, there are only less than twenty days.

But that's okay.

  No matter how short the holiday is, at least the first day after Christmas can still be a good night's sleep!

   Early the next morning.

  The sky is but dim.

  Xu Yun was still dreaming some unspeakable dreams under the quilt, when he was dragged out of the quilt.

at the same time.

  An aged but full of spirit sounded in his ear:

   "Student Luo Feng, at your age, can you still sleep? Won't you get up soon?"

  Xu Yun swayed his body twice, rubbed his eyes in confusion, and saw the face of the visitor clearly with his eyes:

  Michael Faraday.

   Then he turned his head in a daze again, and glanced at the clock on the wall:

  Five forty in the morning.

  Xu Yun:

  “.”

  He really wanted to pat the current number one physicist on the shoulder, and say hello, my readers in my previous life didn’t push people like this.

  However, Faraday can be regarded as one of his ancestors, so from the perspective of respecting the old and caring for the young, Xu Yun finally held back the thoughts in his heart.

   He cheered himself up, rubbed his hands together, let out a sigh of relief between his clasped palms, and asked Faraday:

   "Mr. Faraday, did you come to the door early this morning for something?"

   Faraday nodded at him, and took out something from a small suitcase in his hand.

   Then he put it in his palm, handed it to Xu Yun, and said:

   "Look at this."

  Xu Yun followed the trend and looked.

  After a little astonishment, he quickly recognized the identity of this thing:

   "This is Xiao Yan's tube?"

  Faraday carefully held the side of the test tube, nodded at the same time, and replied:

   "That's right, this is the Xiao Yan tube made according to your structure diagram."

   It can be seen from Xu Yun's perspective.

   The test tube in Faraday's palm has undergone complex modifications. The tube body is thicker at the front and narrower at the back, and a black area is connected to the tail.

   Other than that.

   There are also several wire ports around, which seem to be ready to connect to the external coil.

   That's right!

   The test tube in Faraday's hand is exactly the Gessler tube drawn by Xu Yun that day.

  But now the designer of this test tube has been replaced by the mysterious fat fish, so Xu Yun replaced it with an oriental name:

  Xiao Yan tube.

  As for why this name is used?

the reason is simple:

  The so-called vacuum tube, to put it bluntly, is to pump or **** out the air in the test tube, and then form a vacuum for experiments.

   As far as the conventional means in 1850 were concerned, ordinary test tubes could only reach a vacuum of six thousandths of an atmosphere.

  The modified version of the Gessler tube can be pumped down to only one hundred thousandth of the atmospheric pressure.

   Judging from the degree of exhaustion, he is undoubtedly Xiao Yan who is in charge.

   Reasonable, no problem.

  The line of sight is returning to reality.

   Now that he saw the test tube in Faraday's hands, Xu Yun quickly understood his intention of coming to the door:

   "Mr. Faraday, are you ready to reopen the research on glow discharge?"

  Faraday took a deep breath, nodded, and a flash of fighting intent flashed in his eyes:

   "That's right, Edward and I have made full preparations this time, and we have received the support of Cambridge University. We must make up for this regret no matter what."

  Glow discharge.

   That is, a gas discharge phenomenon that shows glow in a low-pressure gas.

   previously introduced.

  Faraday actually discovered this phenomenon as early as 1838.

   At the same time, he also discovered that the purple cathodic glow and the pink anodic glow will separate from each other, forming a dark zone in the middle area.

  However, the conditions at that time were limited, he could only extract a test tube environment with a vacuum of 6%, and could not conduct in-depth research.

  So Faraday could only name this area 'Faraday Dark Area' and put it aside.

   Actually in Faraday's subconscious.

  He knew that this dark area would definitely involve some unknown territory—because this phenomenon itself cannot be explained by conventional theories.

  If it cannot be explained, it will naturally be about the unknown.

   It’s just that Faraday encountered too many unknown mysteries at that time, so he gradually forgot this phenomenon to the back of his mind.

   But what he didn't expect was.

  The truth hidden behind this phenomenon is actually linked to the macroscopic origin of the world!

  Faraday has actually been a little scared these days, and even had several nightmares.

  Because for a scientist, missing this event will be a lifelong regret, and it can even be said to be a shame.

   Fortunately

  He met Xu Yun.

  He first learned about the phenomenon observed by Fat Yu from Xu Yun, and then he got the design drawing of 'Xiao Yan Guan'.

   At the same time, he also learned about the fact that Fat Yu didn't have time to study deeply after designing the 'Xiao Yan Tube' due to various reasons.

  So that day after parting with Xu Yun.

  He immediately took Weber to find William Whewell, and began to prepare materials for related experiments.

   After 12 years, he must explore the essence of the glow phenomenon this time!

  Actually, what Xu Yun didn't know was.

  Faraday got the finished tools including the 'Xiao Yan Tube' as early as yesterday morning, theoretically, he can start experimenting in the afternoon.

  However, Christmas is a very special festival after all—it is not only the Spring Festival in Europe, but also has a strong religious color.

   Faraday and Weber were both believers, or in 1850, there were not many non-believers in Europe.

  So no matter what, they don't dare to presume on Christmas day.

   Today is Christmas.

  He rushed to Xu Yun's dormitory early and dragged Xu Yun out of his dream.

   There are really not many people who can be invited by Faraday these days, and no one dares. Or is qualified to refuse him.

  From a certain point of view, it’s like God calling you to the sky to play chess.

  So facing Faraday, who had a domineering CEO expression, Xu Yun could only sigh in resignation.

  Get up from the bed at six o'clock on the second day after Christmas, and obediently follow Faraday to the laboratory.

  In Xu Yun's later generations, the most famous official laboratory of Cambridge University is undoubtedly the Cavendish Laboratory.

  It is also the first comprehensive laboratory established after the establishment of natural sciences throughout Europe.

  However, in 1850, the Cavendish Laboratory had not yet been established, and even its first director, Wheat, was still studying as an undergraduate.

   Therefore, the place where Faraday experimented is naturally not west of Cambridge, but an ancient building in the north of Cambridge:

  loken floor.

   This building is adjacent to the office of Professor Lucas of Cambridge University and is only one floor high.

   It is also the oldest and most well-equipped laboratory in the University of Cambridge before the establishment of the Cavendish Laboratory.

  Historically, Mavericks has completed the expression of the law of cooling here, and also studied the problem of the speed of sound.

   It is said that the final draft of "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" was also finalized here.

  By 1850, the loken building also added dust removal equipment similar to the air shower—although this thing may look a little hip in later generations, but at present, this node can already be regarded as a top dust removal method.

   Then Xu Yun, led by Faraday, walked through the air shower and came to a room on the right on the first floor.

  The floor area of ​​this room is about 300 square meters, and it looks quite open.

   There are microscopes, various ammeters and voltmeters, generators, magnetic induction coils and so on.

  Xu Yun also saw a large bundle of cables about the thickness of a thumb in a corner, and he didn't know what it was for.

   Except for these devices.

   At this time, Weber, Weber's assistant Kirchhoff, Gauss, Riemann and others were still standing in the room.

  Among them, Kirchhoff, Riemann, and Xu Yun were all holding their eyelids and yawning.

   Yes, unlucky +2.

   Then Faraday brought Xu Yun to Weber and Gauss, and greeted them familiarly.

   Then he looked at Kirchhoff again and asked:

   "Gustav, have all the equipment been adjusted?"

   When Xu Yun met Faraday before, Weber gave Kirchhoff to his good friend. Now that a month has passed, Kirchhoff has successfully obtained the teaching assistant staff.

  After hearing what Faraday said, he pointed to the right area of ​​the house, and said in still dry English:

   "Professor Faraday, all the equipment you need has been debugged."

  Faraday and Xu Yun followed the trend.

as predicted.

  In the direction Kirchhoff pointed, a set of equipment has been set up at this time:

  The bracket of the equipment is a table about four meters long and one meter five wide, on which there is a erected 'Xiao Yan Guan'.

  The inside of the Xiaoyan tube is filled with mercury, and the outside is connected with several turns of the Rumkoff coil, and there are other tools such as an optical circuit board.

   This is a standard set of glow experiment equipment, which can be easily assembled by any third-level school or even a vocational high school in later generations.

   But in 1850.

  This is the only high-precision experimental module in Europe, and it is also the

  The way to go deep into a certain field and touch the truth of the world.

Note:

  Hands are so painful that I can’t move them. I have nearly 40,000 words in four days. Tomorrow’s update may be posted in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. I must go to acupuncture.
