My ex-girlfriend thought I was poor, so I made 100 million by betting on stones.

Chapter 1848 Parallel World

"Well, actually, I think that might have something to do with gravity, like general relativity."

Yang Feng continued, "In current science, we believe that time and space are not an absolutely flat container, but an interconnected whole. The geometric form is determined by mass and energy. Just like a heavy object pressing on a rubber pad, the space will be squeezed and bent."

"Exactly, that's what we were thinking."

Zhuge Tianlang became excited.

Because in the Zhuge family, there was actually no one who could talk to him about these things.

But I didn't expect that people from outside would understand all this.

Yang Feng said helplessly, "In fact, I only know some superficial common sense knowledge. It's just that I occasionally notice it when I practice, so I read it."

"Haha, the scientific atmosphere here isn't very strong, and I didn't expect that Mr. Yang, such a top ancient martial artist, would also be interested in these things."

Zhuge Tianlang admired Yang Feng more and more.

In his eyes, top ancient martial artists didn't seem to care about science, especially those at Yang Feng's level.

They can do anything that modern science can do at will, so science is actually not of much help to them.

But Zhuge Tianlang did not expect that Yang Feng would pay so much attention to these things.

Yang Feng smiled and said, "Actually, I have invested in many similar companies before."

"I see. It seems you are really different from others."

"But I see you seem to have encountered some difficulties?"

Yang Feng brought the topic back.

Zhuge Tianlang heard this and said, "Yes, my main research area is quantum mechanics. In fact, I have been using all my training time recently to communicate with other scientists. We are discussing some issues."

"What exactly is it?"

“It’s the many-worlds interpretation.”

Zhuge Tianlang was talking to Yang Feng, and then he said, "Oh, right, it's what ordinary people call the parallel universe theory."

“Is there really such a thing?”

Yang Feng was somewhat interested.

He had not had much exposure to this area before.

Zhuge Tianlang talked about his expertise and said, "Yes, this mainly originates from the state of microscopic particles, just like the state of microscopic particles described in Schrödinger's equation. These particles are usually in a superposition state, that is, multiple states are mixed together."

"for example?"

Yang Feng didn't quite understand.

Zhuge Tianlang thought for a moment and said, "For example, an electron can be in a superposition state of spin-up and spin-down at the same time. That is, multiple states exist at the same time and are superimposed on each other. Sometimes they are even directly opposite."

"Well, I probably understand."

"But even if we know that the particle is in a superposition state, when we observe it, we can only see one state. This raises a question: why do we only see one state when we measure it?"

Zhuge Tianlang said, "In the Copenhagen School, they think this is a kind of collapse."

"Collapse?"

"Yes, after we observed it, the particle collapsed into one of its states. In other words, our observation caused the particle to change, leaving only one result."

Zhuge Tianlang delved deeper and deeper, saying, "However, this theory has some problems. For example, the physical mechanism of collapse is completely unknown. It also conflicts with the basic equations of quantum mechanics, because collapse is instantaneous and irreversible, while the wave function in the basic equations evolves continuously and reversibly."

"Um……"

"In the many-worlds interpretation, particles don't collapse, but rather split apart, existing in another parallel space-time. This theory maintains logical consistency and avoids observer-centrism, returning to the objectivity of physical reality."

Zhuge Tianlang talked about his area of expertise and began to brag to Yang Feng.

As his conversation became more and more profound, Yang Feng could no longer understand what he was saying.

However, Yang Feng looked at the circle on the table and seemed to understand what Zhuge Tianlang was doing.

"Are you looking for multiple worlds?"

Yang Feng asked.

Zhuge Tianlang shook his head and said, "In theory, this is impossible. We were in the process of measurement, and after the universe split, we entered different branches of the world. Just like me yesterday, because I made a different choice, I might be in another world, but I will never find it."

"I see."

Yang Feng seemed to understand a little.

"Actually, if I had to say, maybe it's due to the decoherence effect... Never mind, it's just that our generation won't be able to see it. Or at least not for a very long time in the future."

Zhuge Tianlang shook his head.

As he spoke, he wiped away the water marks on the table with his hand.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about something and talked to you about a lot of these things. I think it must be very boring."

Zhuge Tianlang woke up.

He was a little crazy just now, but now he realized that he was not discussing with a scientist, so he shouldn't be so involved in the conversation.

However, Yang Feng looked thoughtful after hearing this.

He looked at the water marks that Zhuge Tianlang had just wiped away and asked, "Are those circles you drew above parallel worlds?"

"This one……"

Zhuge Tianlang spoke of this with a more serious tone. "To me, this might just be a concept," he said. "After all, the so-called parallel world is actually a quantum mechanical explanation. It simply explains the unobservability of particles, whether they collapse or split."

"Hmm...if they were splitting, they would be in a superposition state before the split, right?"

"Yes, in fact, in theory, it can be said that this world is a superposition state, and the entire universe is the same."

Zhuge Tianlang explained, "Just like when you looked at me, you had two decisions. One was that you came over and chatted with me. The other was that you didn't come over and continued eating as usual."

"In other words, both decisions have actually been made, but we are only in the process of making one of them."

"Yes, in a sense, our observations may have an infinite number of outcomes, just like our lives have an infinite number of outcomes."

Zhuge Tianlang smiled and said, "It's just like maybe in another parallel world, I didn't study science, but instead took the path of an ancient warrior. It's just that these worlds are impossible to enter."

"Yeah, it's impossible to enter..."

Yang Feng was thoughtful.

He seemed to have thought of something.

Zhuge Tianlang didn't know this, but seeing Yang Feng like this, he said lightly: "After talking with you, I feel very relaxed. Thank you for listening to my complaints."
