I Made Scientific Magic

  Chapter 504 The first magic crisis, the collapsed photoelectric theory

  【The world is fluctuating, the inference on the propagation of light in a vacuum. 】,【Shocked, the latest explanation of the light diffraction phenomenon, the wave theory is just a clown's nonsense! 】,【The biggest omission of particle theory is actually this, optics is already in jeopardy! 】…

  In the city of fire oil, in the optical magic laboratory, Glenn slowly put down the newspaper template in his hand, and couldn't help but complain. "Luo Er, you are really serious. There is enough noise outside now. Is it really okay for you to send these things?"

   "Of course no problem. You see, in just one and a half months, we have received more optical papers than in the previous year!" Luo Er replied with a smile, and then continued with a helpless expression.

   "And whether it's Master Anthony or Master Jeffrey, I can't afford to offend them. I can post whatever they write!"

  Luo Er said that at most he was responsible for creating an eye-catching title and polishing it a little bit!

  Glenn was very speechless, but he had to admit that competition is indeed the biggest driving force for magic research.

   These days, the wizards who support the theory of particles and waves have carried out extremely detailed research on the various characteristics of light, and have given a lot of conjectures.

  Some conjectures are completely unreasonable and illogical, but there are also many theories that are supported by experimental evidence. As long as these theories are confirmed, they can get a Morning Star or even a Silver Moon Medal.

   Seeing that Green had fully understood his difficulties, Rolle took the template in his hand with a smile, and handed it to the assistant on the side, asking him to speed up the printing.

  Yesterday they printed a total of 900,000 copies of the newspaper and distributed them to the cities under the kingdom and the newly occupied ones. As a result, they were sold out within a few hours. This shows that the printing is still not fast enough!

"By the way, Glenn, I heard that Master Sanchez, one of the founders of optoelectronics, visited you in person last night. Is that true?" Luo Er suddenly asked out of nostalgia, and unconsciously picked up the pen in his hand, as if A look that is ready to record at any time.

   Thinking about it with his feet, he knew that Master Sanchez must want to win over Glenn, the famous developer of spotlight magic.

   If you agree, it will definitely be a big hit!

Although Glenn is only a three-ring wizard, he came up with a shocking thousand-mirror plan to measure the speed of light at the last academic seminar, and accidentally created the concentrating magic, and obtained the master of magic. With the appreciation of the stars and the speakers, his potential influence is no worse than that of a great wizard.

Hearing Rohr's question about this, Glenn couldn't help but smiled wryly. In fact, it wasn't just Sanchez. Several wizards who advocated the light wave theory also approached him and explained to him the superiority of the wave theory in detail. There was no answer from either side.

   First, I don’t want to be involved in this dispute. Second, both theories have unexplainable optical phenomena.

  For example, the light wave theory is very good at explaining the dispersion, diffraction, interference, superposition and other effects of light, but it is very weak in explaining the photoelectric effect and pinhole imaging.

As for the explosion theory of electric elements that the wizards who believed in particle theory came up with to explain the diffraction phenomenon, Glenn felt that it was not reliable at all. as evidence.

   Before figuring it out, Glenn felt that it was better not to stand in a random line, so as not to overturn in the end.

  Luo Er, who wanted to make a big news, had to put away the pen and paper in disappointment, and asked about the progress of lighting photography technology.

   This is an optical phenomenon discovered by Glenn a year ago. When a plate with a small hole is used to block the wall and the object, an inverted real image of the object will be formed on the wall.

  Glenn is sure that he is not the first person to discover this phenomenon, but he is definitely the first wizard to use it!

  There is an oil field not far from the City of Fire Oil, where he accidentally found a kind of asphalt that is extremely sensitive to light when he was on duty.

  This kind of asphalt will harden under the irradiation of light, and the degree of hardening will vary according to the degree of light. Using this characteristic, combined with the principle of small hole imaging, he successfully produced the first generation of light cameras.

  The problem is that it is too troublesome to make a photosensitive plate with this bitumen, and the resulting image is difficult to reproduce, which is not conducive to large-scale dissemination.

  So over the past year, Glenn has been trying to use different elements to create photosensitive devices to improve the lighting camera. Now it has been upgraded to the third version, and the problem of photo reproduction has been initially resolved.

  The first large-scale use was in the war of public opinion that disintegrated the beliefs of the people of the empire.

   "Regarding the improvement of the camera, I already have a plan, which can further increase the clarity of the photo through the development technique, and the printing magic developed by Chairman Lynn may also be used in the reproduction of the image..."

  Glenn talked eloquently about the latest achievements in optical photography, and when it was rising, he wanted to show Rohr the development magic he developed!

  Rohr was also very interested. After all, with every improvement in photography technology, [Magic Daily] would sell better. Under Glenn's instructions, he quickly stood on a photosensitive screen.

   "It's like this!" Glenn stretched out his right hand, closed his eyes and began to induce and create electric current.

  He has no way to directly create light, and can only indirectly manipulate the light beam through the phenomenon of electroluminescence.

  Of course, according to the theory of particle theory, photoelectricity is probably the same thing, but light is more microcosmic than electricity.

  Rohr stood there with great interest and waited for a while, but to his surprise, Glenn didn't move for a long time, and his face was full of horror.

   "What's the matter, Glenn?" Rolle immediately sensed something was wrong, and was vaguely worried about his own safety. Could it be that something went wrong with this magic?

   "Charge... where is the charge? The charge is gone!" Glenn opened his eyes suddenly, and said in horror.

   "What?" Luo Er was stunned, and for a moment he didn't understand what it meant.

  Of course he knows what an electric charge is, it is a substance with positive and negative charges. Generally speaking, thunder magic is performed by artificially creating this kind of potential difference.

   "The charge is gone, I suddenly can't feel it!" Glenn's eyes were red, and his voice was trembling faintly. Now he can't even create the simplest electric current, and he can't use any lightning magic!

"Glenn, now is not the time to joke." Roll frowned, but seeing Glenn running to the side of the motor like crazy, stretched his hand in, and induced the current with his body. realized the seriousness of the problem.

  Rohr ran over quickly, but he didn't dare to disturb Glenn's movements. He could only watch his body shake unconsciously and quickly under the attack of the electric current, and it took several minutes before he stopped dejectedly.

   "How is it?" Luo Er asked worriedly.

   "Electricity exists... Electricity exists! It's just that I can't control it!" Glenn muttered to himself, his face full of puzzlement and confusion.

   "Are you too tired? Do you want to take a rest first?" Rolle said with relief. He felt that Glenn may have been researching day and night these days, causing his spirit to be depressed.

   "No, I'm fine, very fine!" Glenn said forcefully, stretching out his hand with a frenzied expression, and a bursting fireball appeared in his palm.

  This is exactly the second-ring technique [Pyroblast]...

  Obviously, his mental power wasn't so weak that he couldn't cast magic.

   Without waiting for Rohr to reply, Glenn eagerly called his assistant and asked him to cast a thunder spell, any kind would do.

  After hearing Glenn's weird request, the assistant was also at a loss, but after trying it out, the same terrifying expression appeared on his face, and he shouted in a broken voice. "What about the charge? Where did the charge go?"

Rolle and Glenn looked at each other, and a chill suddenly rushed to their hearts from the soles of their feet. He immediately put down all the affairs in hand, hurriedly wrote an urgent letter, and sent it to the Holy City to report this strange situation. To the Speakers.

  In fact, the desk of the Magic Council has long been filled with similar letters. There are not a few wizards like Glenn who suddenly find that they have lost the ability to control lightning, and it is spreading like a plague...

  After some investigations, the council quickly came to a conclusion that as long as a wizard questioned the nature of photoelectricity, he would immediately lose the ability to perceive electric charges within the horizon of the elements.

  What puzzled them the most was that those wizards who simply believed in the theory of particles or waves had normal spellcasting abilities, but the wizards who watched the excitement were almost wiped out.

   To a lesser extent, it is only an intermittent spellcasting obstacle, and the most serious one is like Glenn, who has completely lost the ability to perceive electric charges.

Panic spread throughout the kingdom. This kind of 'disease' called spell-casting disorder had never happened before. Most wizards were worried whether they were affected or not. These worries and panic quickly turned to The wrath of the volatility doctrine.

  In the beginning, everyone cast spells well, but when Jeffrey's wave theory came out, they couldn't fix it directly. Now even the release of the thunder spell has become a problem!

  Ten great wizards of the particle faction jointly published an article the next day, angrily denouncing the wave theory in the [Magic Daily] as a fallacious theory that shakes the foundation of magic!

   Coupled with the attacks of many neutrals, the volatility theory, which was already at a disadvantage for a while, even reached the point where everyone shouted.

  Until a piece of heavy news directly shattered everyone's cognition!

   Without any warning, Anthony suddenly turned his head to believe in the wave theory, and posted a post stating that he found new evidence, and even discovered a new model that can explain the structure of atoms on this basis!

After getting the news, Sanchez, Allard and other great wizards of the Particle Sect were completely dumbfounded. They were about to take advantage of the opportunity to kill the wave wheel in the cradle and return the magic to orthodoxy. As a result, Anthony discovered the photoelectric effect The number one hero of the party has actually rebelled!

   "Is Anthony crazy?" Sanchez jumped in anger.

  The achievements of the Particle School for several months were directly destroyed in this way, and Sanchez, who was so frustrated, wanted to kill Anthony directly.

   "Could it be that light really fluctuates?" Allard was incomparably confused, and he couldn't think of the reason for Anthony's sudden switch to the Wave School.

   "Have you forgotten our research, Allard?" Sanchez's face suddenly darkened. They have successfully 'explained' every phenomenon of light with particle theory, and now only a few decisive evidences are missing!

   What's more, Anthony also blatantly said that he has found a new model to explain the internal structure of elements.

   This is simply crazy. You must know that Speaker Lynn's star-orbit element model has been recognized by all wizards, and it can only be described as perfect.

  Any wizard who has seen the orbital model will recognize without hesitation that this is the ultimate form of the element!

   Also, the photoelectricity is one, so is it possible that the electrons inside the element also fluctuate?

   Sanchez never believed in this kind of fallacy, but the influence of Anthony, the creator of the photoelectric effect, was still terrible. A large number of wizards who believed in the particle school were shaken and instantly lost the ability to perceive electric charges.

  This dispute, which has become more and more widespread, has faintly exceeded the boundaries of the debate, and naturally it has already attracted the attention of Harov and others.

  Even Lynn, who was immersed in researching quantum theory, received a report.

   "Is there an obstacle to spellcasting?" After listening to Philip and others' description, Lynn was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that the dispute between particles and waves would lead to such serious consequences.

   "Master Dean, are you okay?" Philip couldn't help asking, and now nearly half of the people have been deprived of the ability to perceive electric charges.

   "Of course it's okay..." Lin En raised his eyebrows, surrounded by electric light, this is the lightning spell - [Electromagnetic Barrier]!

  Seeing that the star of magic is all right, Philip and the others breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that nearly half of the wizards have lost the ability to cast corresponding spells.

  Many wizards who support the theory of light particles, even yin and yang, gave this spellcasting obstacle a new term called "wave plague", which means that the wave theory is the source of this magic crisis, and it will spread like a plague.

  After thinking about it for a while, Lin En vaguely guessed the reason for this magic crisis.

  Antony's 'Electrotherapy Induction' method allows wizards to have the ability to perceive and control electric charges, but to put it bluntly, this is just a tricky method, and their own understanding of electricity is very limited.

It's like a child who barely learned to walk and run by muscle memory, and now two people suddenly appear, arguing with each other, insisting on telling the child whether it is more scientific to walk with the left foot first or the right foot first. Science, and which leg nerve should be controlled, and how many steps are the most appropriate, directly confused the child who could run, and now he can't even walk...

   PS: In response to some people's inquiries, although the progress of magic in this book refers to the development of modern science to a certain extent, it is impossible to directly follow the historical process because wizards themselves have the ability to perceive and manipulate elements. For example, when explaining gravitation before, why did you mention the distortion of the essential space of gravity? Because wizards have the ability to perceive space, they must be able to discover the connection between the two... Now it is the same when explaining wave theory, wizards If we know the existence of gravitational waves, then there is no need to invent a material such as ether as the carrier of light waves. As for black body radiation, that thing is too long to write, and I will mention it later. In addition, in addition to the scientific conjectures that existed in history, I will also write some purely brain-hole theories that I saw when I searched for information, such as the theory of photoelectric element explosion above, which was born out of [nuclear diffraction hypothesis]. I found it very interesting, so I changed it and wrote it up. The wrong theory will be corrected by the protagonist later.
