Chapter 093: Their Tastes
More than a dozen cover letters were placed on Mr. Li's desk.
"George Morris, 27, with a bachelor's degree in engineering and a master's degree in Columbia graduate school, is an engineering student who has just graduated and is eager for a job at Zeus Labs."
"Mario Bellini, whose name should be Italian, is also a graduate of Columbia University's School of Engineering, with a bachelor's degree, 30 years old, and has several years of experience working with vacuum tubes."
"Andrei Milievsky, this guy is from Eastern Europe, he got his degree in Europe and worked for a few years in an electrical company in New Jersey."
Li Kangping read the cover letters one by one, and then handed some of them to Minister Tim Flin.
"Tim, inform these candidates to come to the company for interviews, and I will interview all technicians in person."
In terms of technology application, Li Kangping continues to recruit application-oriented talents.
In the field of academic research, Li Kangping needs to solve an old problem, that is, the nature of light that has been quarreled with in the physics community for more than ten years.
["About Light Quantum."] 】
[K.P. Lee.] 】
Zeus Laboratory, Queens, New York City. 】
[We think of a light atom as a very small energy center with a very small static mass m0 and a velocity very close to c.] The following relationship exists between the frequency ν, the static mass m0 and the velocity βc: hν=m0c^2/√1-β^2. From this, it is derived that β=√1-(m0c^2/ hν)^2. 】
[This conclusion allows us to demonstrate a clear agreement between the Doppler effect and the radiation pressure.] 】
[In the article "Matter Waves", I have shown that the transition between Wien's law and Rayleigh's law can be explained by assuming that the same phase wave associates a group of light atoms. I insist that when the number of quants increases infinitely, such waves with a large number of quanta are similar to classical waves. 】
[Let's take a look at the light quantum, whenever the light quantum is involved, there is such a fact, the light wave with the frequency ν is associated with the light atom moving at the speed βc, so the ...... can be derived]
【…… Therefore, from any point of view, the result is the same, that is, light has wave-particle duality, and the law of conservation should be strictly observed. 】
Li Kangping combined the theory in "Waves of Matter" and supported the theory of light quantum with a clear attitude in the article "About Light Quantum".
Newcomers to the academic community do not have direct access to the editors of the editorial board of Physical Review until they have received proofs of their papers, but Dr. Kangping Li is not new, so he appeared in front of the secretary of Mr. Lopis, the editor-in-chief of Physical Review.
"Hello Elizabeth, is Mr. Lopis inside?"
"He's inside, you go in."
"Thank you and have a great day."
"You too. By the way, Dr. Lee, I saw you in the newspapers. ”
"Elizabeth, do you mean the TV coverage?"
"That's right, it's TV. Dr. Lee, you're a celebrity now, hey, the 'Father of Television' Dr. Lee--- that's what they say! I didn't go to Fifth Avenue to see your TV show, but the newspapers described your TV as amazing, so when is your next show, I really want to go to the show live. ”
"If there's a next TV performance, I'll let you know as soon as possible, I promise. Now, then, I'm going to go in and talk to Mr. Lovis about pure physics. ”
Li Kangping entered Mr. Lofes's office, where Mr. Lofes was working at his desk.
"Dr. Li, I discovered a law that every time you come to my office, you always bring a new paper. Let me see, what did you bring this time? ”
"Mr. Lofes, I obey your laws." Li Kangping smiled and presented "About Light Quantum".
Lopis took the manuscript of the paper, and he said while reading it: "Dr. Li, I think you are a peculiar person, you are a theoretical physicist, you published "Waves of Matter", and at the same time you are an experimental physicist, you have completed space quantization experiments, electron diffraction experiments. Now, you're an inventor again, and you've invented a TV that can broadcast live on the spot. You seem to be able to do anything? ”
"No, no, no, I'm not omnipotent, for example, American football, I've been in the United States for two years, and I haven't even figured out the rules of American football."
"You're not interested in American football, so you don't want to waste even a minute trying to understand the rules of American football." Turning directly to the end of the paper, Lofes said: "Forgive me for looking directly at the conclusion, because in such a short time all I can understand is the conclusion." If I remember correctly, you leaned towards the theory of light quanta in "Blackbody Radiation and Light Quanta", and in this article "About Light Quantum", you expressed your strong support for light quantum theory in a very positive tone. Am I understanding correctly? ”
"Mr. Lofes, your understanding is completely correct."
"Dr. Lee, you know, about the quantum theory of light, they believe in one part of it, but they don't believe in the other part. I thought about this and came to the conclusion that the part they believe is the only part that can lead to any outcome, and the rest is mostly a matter of their taste. ”
"Dr. Li, you have been in the United States for two years, so you should know something about them. The truth is, whether you keep this part or not, you get the same result. Therefore, I'd rather let them do what they did, and maybe soon agree on which method was better. I have no reason to argue with them now, but they are still very excited. ”
If you are not a professional in American academic circles, you may not understand what the editor-in-chief of Lopis is trying to say.
Facts have once again proved that most insiders deal with topics related to the basic problems of basic theories in an ambiguous way.
A hundred people have a hundred interpretations of ambiguous thinking, Li Kangping's interpretation is that the editor-in-chief of Lopis seems to be biased towards the quantum theory of light?
"Yes, I know them, and they will choose the 'dishes' that suit their tastes. Mr. Lopez, I know that this paper of mine is bound to turn some people off, but I still want to publish it as soon as possible, can I? ”
"Dr. Lee, I received an update that last month, the Royal Society completed a total solar eclipse observation in Australia, and they observed a declination angle of 1.72±0.11''', which is somewhat more accurate than the 1919 observation."
"Oh, yes, that's great! If there are still people who doubt the theory of relativity, then it is not a matter of academic at all, but a matter of pure taste. ”
"Dr. Li, you go back first, your article "About Light Quantum" is here with me."
"Okay, thanks."
