Chapter 331 Science is Truth
"This theory is so contradictory!"

Peng Yuchang felt his head hurt when he heard it.

He didn't know much about Scher's cat, and he didn't expect it to be such a trouble.

Let him have a feeling that these scientists are thinking too much, and if they don't eat or drink and put them in the box, they must be completely dead except for death.

How can one have to see that something is dead before admitting it is dead?
It is simply an experiment that can only be conceived with a sick mind.

But how could he say this so stupidly, otherwise those scientists would have to tear him apart.

"In that case, you don't need to look at it to know whether the cat is dead or not. Why do you need to look at it to make a conclusion?"

"Teaching is still a little bit useful, and the word is not wrong this time."

Hearing Peng Yuchang's words, Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and praised Peng Yuchang.

Although the words were used correctly, the thought was not given much thought after all.

This thought experiment is scientific, and it still exists.

"Old man, I just talked about the collapse of the wave function. Human consciousness belongs to a controllable range, and its fluctuation range is equivalent to consciousness. In other words, when your consciousness believes in a certain point, it exists."

After he finished speaking, his eyes rolled slightly and he continued:

"Tell you two examples, and you can understand the collapse of the wave function. It's very simple. Let's use the supernatural phenomenon you mentioned just now. I have already told you about it, old man, and they can all be used by science. Come to analyze and explain, but in your consciousness, you still faintly feel that it exists.”

"This existence can be defined as conclusion a, and conclusion b is that it still has no possibility of existence in your consciousness. The reason for these two conclusions is that you don't know how to define them because you haven't seen them before. This is The wave function, it has the property of fluctuation, and the collapse means that the matter of the star shrinks and squeezes together. But in this thought experiment, it means that one day you will see it, and there will be a conclusion. Do you understand? "

"..."

Listening to the old man's explanation, several people frowned slightly, thinking about it in their minds.

They understood the old man's explanation somewhat, but they didn't feel that they understood it very well.

"Don't think too much for now. When I tell you the second example, you should almost understand it."

Ye Qing watched a few people thinking, took out a coin from his pocket and placed it between the knuckles of his thumb and index finger.

"This time I will explain it to you with real objects. The coin is divided into side a and side b. After the coin is tossed up and down, I cover the answer with my hand. When you see that it has only two situations, it is a wave function, but What is the result? The process before you speculate and see the answer belongs to a conscious thought collapse.”

"I understand. It means that before looking at the answer, this Scher's cat is actually an unknown quantity of consciousness. It is said that it is dead, but it is still very likely to be alive. After all, the final conclusion is invisible. .”

Zhang Zifeng nodded and said with a comprehended face.

After watching two experiments, she finally understood what the collapse of the wave function meant.

It turned out that this was Scherer's cat. She was ignorant when listening to people talking about it before, but she completely understood it when grandpa explained it like this today.

"I also understand, but I still think this thought experiment is very troublesome. Even if you don't look at it with your eyes, the conclusion can still be obtained through the detection of living organisms."

Peng Yuchang also nodded like Zifeng, but he still had doubts about the experiment.

He really can't understand the scientist's thinking, it's just a thought experiment, why is it so complicated?
Isn't it very simple and clear to use a coin to do an experiment like the old man?
A scientist's head is like a grocery store, he can think of everything, and wants to try everything.

"This thought experiment is troublesome in some ways."

Ye Qing just smiled slightly at what Peng Yuchang said, and continued:
"At that time, this experiment also triggered two factions of scientists to confirm that the measurement of microscopic particles by macroscopic objects was to confirm a little bit of the collapse of the wave function. When this experiment came out, the old man, I have always stood firmly in the b faction. To prove this conclusion, we only need to measure the results, and in scientific experiments, only the verification results are the most important, and there is no need for human consciousness to join in.”

At the beginning, the foolish boy didn't understand this thought experiment, and brought his own subjective consciousness to think about the purpose of this experiment, and he certainly wouldn't understand what the experiment was for.

Now that he understands it, he also knows the significance of this experiment and what science is.

The result of this thought experiment is that the collapse of the wave function exists, and it is the result obtained through scientific verification, and the experiment does not require the addition of consciousness, and the determined result has nothing to do with consciousness.

Although he knows that there are some things that cannot be confirmed by the current science.

But he still talked to these children and convinced them of the truth of science.

After all, since ancient times, he has seen many liars use consciousness to deceive people.

He hoped that the children in this world would admire science and not believe in those things in consciousness.

Everyone listened to the old man's narration and nodded.

They really understood the meaning of the old man's words.

It turns out that today's lesson is to make them believe in science and judge with subjective results instead of following their consciousness.

The audience in the live broadcast room also nodded with a dazed expression and left their own comments in the comment area.

"I finally understand what Scherer's cat is today."

"Actually, this Scher's cat experiment is not just about these."

"What are you talking about, other things are not important, we can't understand those macro and quantum things."

"That's right, just listen to this, as long as you know that the old man makes us believe in science."

"I didn't expect that the old man was also a supporter of faction b. What a coincidence, so am I."

"I'm also a b faction. Before I came into contact with Scher's cat thought experiment, I quite agreed with the existence and influence of consciousness. It wasn't until my tutor gave us clear measurement results that I firmly believed in it. The conclusion of faction b is correct."

"So it doesn't matter whether you are conscious or not. It is the most important thing to follow the scientific results."

After listening to the old man's science lecture today, many viewers couldn't help but admire the old man even more.

Let them also be fully convinced that science is the truth.

……

in the mushroom house.

A sumptuous dinner is already on the table.

Everyone gathered around the table and chatted lively.

Peng Yuchang put the meat in his bowl with an excited face, and at the same time told Yixing and Wang Sicong beside him about the old man's science class today.

"I really understood today that there is such a science. The old man is simply amazing."

"It's really great."

After Zhang Yixing listened, he looked at the old man with admiration in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, when cooking, the old man talked about such an interesting Scher's cat.

Fortunately, Peng Zai could still remember what the old man said.

Otherwise, it would be a great loss to miss such a wonderful scientific experiment.
