Marvel's Return of the Inventor

On September 2011, 9, the Bristol “Global Community” High Energy Physics Academic Symposium officially opened.

"Yes, there are indeed many people in the outside world who believe that these advanced theoretical studies in the field of high-energy physics have nothing to do with our daily lives. It is not worth spending billions or even tens of billions of dollars on particle accelerators for this purpose, but I I believe everyone here will not think so.”

In the large conference room on the top floor of Lingxiao Group, Noah Ellington, the first initiator of the conference, was making the opening speech.

As in any usual academic conference, Ding Sheng chose to sit in the most inconspicuous corner, minding his own business, "Guan Ju, do you have any clues?"

"The architectural model of this building has been scanned. Ding Sheng, look here."

Guan Ju said, projecting a model diagram into Ding Sheng's mind, and then zoomed in on a special mark inside the building.

"Is this an elevator?" Ding Sheng was not sure,

He is a complete novice when it comes to architectural design. He can guess the name just by looking at the model diagram which is pretty good.

"To be precise, it's an invisible elevator on the inner mezzanine that goes directly to a depth of 150 meters underground."

After listening to Guan Ju's answer, the answer is obvious.

Apart from the super particle accelerator, Ding Sheng couldn't think of anything else worthy of Ellington building such a private underground elevator in his group building.

At this time, Ellington on the stage had already brought the topic of the meeting to the construction of a "super particle accelerator". All the physicists present except Ding Sheng listened very attentively.

When it comes to question time, physicists from all over the world can always ask some sharp questions. Generally speaking, the academic atmosphere in the conference room is still very strong.

But Ding Sheng doesn't care about this, as long as this meeting can keep Ellington from getting away, "Have you found a way to enter the elevator?"

"According to the usage records of the elevator's internal system, this elevator is equipped with extremely high security 'na biometric' and 'behavioral biometric' dual start-stop technology. Only two people can start it."

Needless to say, these two people must be Noah Ellington and his butler Abu.

NA biometric technology is basically the ultimate technology in the field of biometric identification. In addition, it relies on individual differentiation formed by behavioral parameters accumulated over a long period of time. You can imagine how difficult it is to crack it.

I believe that whether it is 007 or Mission: Impossible, encountering such a problem will be a headache.

"How long will it take to crack it?"

There is a saying that one force can defeat ten, so when encountering such a complex situation, the best way is to use the advantages of the super-intelligent system and crush it with technology.

"This is the problem. Give me some time to crack these biometrics, but the time won't be enough for the elevator to complete the nearly 500 meters. I calculated that we will be on the 21st floor underground at the latest. Intercepted."

Build the elevator long enough to leave a buffer time for taking the elevator. I have to say that Ellington has perfected these small details very well.

Ding Sheng didn't hesitate and immediately changed to another plan, "For such a large underground project, whether it is for the entry and exit of workers or the transportation of materials, there must be other entrances. Find them."

Guan Ju can model the entire earth, not to mention the small city of Bristol. It only took him less than two minutes to analyze several possible underground entrances based on various conditions.

To say that Ellington is really cautious, the nearest possible entrance is 25 kilometers away.

"Walk"

Ding Sheng said, having just stood up, he immediately sat back down.

Because at this moment, Ellington on the stage seemed to finally get to the point after going around in countless circles.

"Once this super particle accelerator is built, cosmic rays, strange particles, angel particles, vacuum foam, magnetic monopoles, Higgs bosons and even micro black holes will all be further within the scope of research. If we are more bold, "

Yes, it was when Ding Sheng heard this sentence "If you were bolder" that he temporarily decided to continue listening.

He wanted to see how bold this Ellington was.

Or what is the purpose of calling so many physicists here this time?

Everyone in the conference room fell silent, waiting for the young quantum mechanics on the stage to continue.

"Yes, it is the Big Bang. This super particle accelerator may eventually perfectly simulate the process of the Big Bang that took more than 10 billion years to form until the universe stops expanding."

"I knew it."

When he heard the words 'the universe has stopped expanding', Ding Sheng understood almost instantly why Ellington had convened this academic conference.

In other words, he finally understood how far Ellington was from traveling through time and space.

"I seem to understand." This time, Guan Ju's reaction speed was obviously half a beat slower than Ding Sheng's.

"Several variants of the Big Bang model believe that our universe will one day stop expanding and then start to shrink. In this case, time will use this as a critical point and start to flow backward until the universe collapses into a strange thing again. Click." A beautiful figure quietly walked in from the back of the conference room and sat down next to Ding Sheng.

"Am I right?"

Catherine's arrival directly added a lot of scenery to the boring conference room.

"Of course, I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to question you." Ding Sheng smiled politely.

In fact, a simpler metaphor is that under this cosmic explosion model, everything that happens in the entire universe will happen again in reverse.

And your life will finally one day be like the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", where you will be young again.

It's just that individual models like human beings are completely worth mentioning in the vast universe.

If the human individual model continues to be reduced to a mirror, this phenomenon is called the broken mirror and the reunion.

The water that is reduced to a basin and poured out is called water-covering and retractable

Let us continue to shrink the model, all the way down to a single particle at the subatomic level in quantum mechanics. Then this particle can completely reverse the laws of physics, turning the future into the past, and the past into the future. Play around Time, travel time.

In this case, there is still a "pointer" to distinguish the inherent past and future, which is the "arrow of time".

So Ding Sheng finally understood that everything Ellington was doing now was to simulate this model and seize this arrow of time.

"Is this theory feasible?" Guan Ju asked.

"Hard to say"

This is the first time since Ding Sheng's return that he has shown a lack of confidence in major academic issues.

In the Marvel world, you only need to find a way to enter the quantum realm. Since the quantum realm and the real world have different flow rates, you can travel through time and space by finding a suitable time point.

There are also different levels of difficulty for traveling through time and space of different natures.

The simplest thing is for Ding Sheng to go home, which only requires a space-time machine.

If it's a little more complicated, for example, if you want to go to a time and space where "you" exists, then it involves a time paradox, and you may need to use it with Pym particles for better results.

After you travel through time and want to borrow something from that world and use it, such as infinite gems or something, that is to resist the time paradox, it becomes more complicated.

Anyway, when Ding Sheng left Marvel, Tony Stark had not yet solved this problem.

But on Earth, at least so far, the technology tree has not developed to the level of the "quantum realm". People have no idea that entering the quantum realm can travel through time and space.

So the "Arrow of Time" model that Ellington wants to use is a "non-Marvel" approach.

This method has not been successful at Marvel anyway, or because Marvel has discovered the quantum realm, no one has taken this path.

Most of Ding Sheng's technological knowledge comes from Marvel. Before cooperating with Iron Man, he had no way to travel through time.

So overall, Ding Sheng does understand this concept better than most of the physicists here, but he is not at a level that can solve this problem.

Why most?

Because there is one person here who is quite buggy.

Thinking of this, Ding Sheng turned his head and glanced at Catherine beside him. If there was one person destined to solve this problem, then Ding Sheng would definitely vote for her.

"Your vote was correct. I just searched for the 'Arrow of Time' in all databases around the world and got this information."

After Guan Ju finished speaking, he projected a piece of information on the cover of Silver Arrow into Ding Sheng's mind.

After scanning the first page, he saw the signature "Catherine Oxton."

"This information was just updated a few days ago and has great reference value." Guan Ju added.

Thirty minutes later.

After quickly browsing the project document called "Arrow of Time", Ding Sheng couldn't believe his eyes, "It's too fast. As long as Catherine can solve the problem of detecting and controlling the movement of single molecules in 'Maxwell's Demon' , combined with the 'entropy' related state function, the high-entropy heat death state can guide the direction of the arrow of time. In this way, this model that can travel through time is established."

Only one step away.

Ding Sheng didn't know what to say except shouting "Bullshit".

Fortunately, Maxwell's demon is just a hypothesis and has not yet been realized.

call

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could put his heart back to rest, Ellington's voice came from the podium again.

"With the help of this conference, I proposed a scientific blueprint about the 'Arrow of Time' in the hope that everyone can participate and advance and retreat together."

"At the same time, I can responsibly tell you that super particle accelerators can definitely detect the movement of single molecules. In other words, humans are very close to catching the scientific beast of Maxwell's Demon, so close that you can't even imagine it. !”

The voice fell, and there was thunderous applause.

At the same time, the expressions of a man and a woman in a corner of the conference room changed drastically.
