In the first month (January), the weather in the Kingdom of Holm to the north is still cold, with snowflakes and a cool breeze like a knife.

The warmth in the magic tower of the Alinge branch of the "Song of the Silver Moon Alliance" made the magicians who walked in feel comfortable from the bottom of their hearts - although they were protected by spell effects such as "endure elemental damage" and "resist the cold", the cold wind was still very uncomfortable on their bodies.

"Hi Julie, Happy New Year, is Arcane here today?" At the beginning of the new year, this is the only thing that can make the Arcanists brave the cold wind to come to the Branch's Magic Tower.

Julie, the female apprentice in charge of the reception, didn't know if it was because of the contrast between the inside and outside temperature, or for other reasons, her cheeks flushed and said, "Neither Arcane nor Magic have arrived. ”

After speaking, her eyes were bright, and her voice was low: "Several gentlemen, have you heard about the Cosmic Observatory?"

"What cosmic observatory?" the arcanists replied blankly, they had just finished the New Year and were left behind?

Julie's voice became louder and said excitedly: "Two days ago, news came out from the Atomic Research Institute that Lord Evans has established a cosmic observatory in the starry sky, so that arcanists who are not strong enough in magic can also study cosmic rays and all kinds of unknown mysteries in the vast starry sky. ”

"What?" a mid-level arcanist couldn't control his emotions, his voice echoing through the hall as if it had been blessed with sonic spells.

"Can you really go to the stars to study?" said the other arcanist's tone full of skepticism and disbelief.

Julie nodded vigorously: "Lady Heidi and the others have already gone up!"

The arcanist with a loud voice was confident that Julie would not lie to himself about such a thing, and he looked up. Looking at the ceiling in a daze, it was as if I could see the vast starry sky through it and the layers of magic towers.

"Starry sky, ah......" His tone was like a sigh, because most of the arcane masters are full of awe and yearning for the starry sky of the universe, but in their lifetime, it is unlikely that they will have the opportunity, who knows that there is such a thing now, and the great development of the arcane has really brought one miracle after another!

The other arcanist asked nervously and urgently, "Can we apply for the 'Cosmic Observatory'?" or are only Arcanists from the Atomic Research Institute qualified?"

Before Julie could answer, a clear and calm male voice sounded at the entrance of the magic tower: "Of course, Lord Evans answered the Magic Research Committee clearly. Every time the 'Space Observatory' is turned on. It is possible to give two places to non-atomic research institute arcanists, but they must plan their own experiments in advance and pass a strict review, and they must not let the kind of arcanists who simply go up to feel the starry sky waste the resources of the council. ”

The arcanists in the hall turned around. Some excitedly asked, "Really." Mr. Yurisian?" and some saluted honestly: "Happy New Year." Mr. Yurisian. ”

Walking into the magic tower is none other than Yurisian, who has seven rings.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Magic Research Committee yourself. Jurisian laughed humorously.

By this time, the arcanists had come to their senses. Someone asked worriedly, "Our experimental plans are closely related to our own arcane research, will this leak be an inspiration for others?"

He said it very tactfully, but the actual meaning was very clear, and he was worried that people would see the direction and basis of his own research from the submitted experimental plan, so as to complete similar experiments in advance and snatch the results.

"Rest assured, all experimental plans are backed up like papers, and they are reviewed by members of the Magic Research Committee, so you don't have to worry about someone stealing the results. Yurisian replied with a smile, he was one of the high-level mages with the best interpersonal relationships in the "Song of the Silver Moon Alliance", and he had a strong ability to do things, so he joined the affairs committee.

Whew, several arcanists sighed softly, letting go of their worries, some began to think about what kind of experimental plan to submit to impress the review committee, and some continued to ask, "Mr. Yurisian, I wonder if the Dao Alliance has any idea of establishing a cosmic observatory?"

Yurisian smiled and said: "I don't know, this kind of thing is not so quick to decide, but it is certain that some legendary magicians and archmages think that the Cosmic Observatory is unnecessary, and they are not unable to study it, and some think that it is not appropriate to establish too many at once, which is a great pressure on the Council's 'resource reserves', and cannot be blindly promoted until the 'Cosmic Observatory' of Lord Evans reflects its own value." ”

"Therefore, although there are legendary mages such as Your Excellency the Speaker, Your Excellency the Elemental Dominator, and Your Excellency the Storm Lord to support the 'Cosmic Observatory', it is estimated that another tower will be built in a short period of time. ”

"The concerns of the other Excellencies are very reasonable, after all, no one knows whether the 'Cosmic Observatory' is useful or not, and rash recklessness is not the style of the Council. An arcane nodded approvingly.

Just as they were about to say goodbye to Yurisian, a beep suddenly sounded at the reception desk in front of Julie.

"Hey?" Julie answered the phone, "Ah, Arcane and Magic have been delivered?"

The arcanists who were about to leave stopped and waited patiently for ten minutes before buying the Arcane and Magic periodicals from Julie.

"This issue of Arcane is really thick. An arcanist said to his companion with a slight confusion.

Instead of going to his office to pick up his share, Yurisian looked at the unsold journals at the reception desk.

"Quantum field theory?A series of papers by Lord Brooke, Lord Stormmaster, and Lord Evans?" Some arcanists quickly browsed through the catalog and found the key word "quantum field theory".

Upon hearing his words, the other arcanists were even more surprised and puzzled: "Quantum himself knows the Dao, and the field theory also knows the Dao, but what do they mean together? Is that what you guessed in your heart?"

Papers on quantum field theory are complex, difficult, and full of dizzying calculations, and these arcanists once again experience the confusion of general relativity and matrix mechanics, and some simply skip the intermediate derivation process and familiarize themselves with the search for conclusions.

"The nature of electromagnetism?" blurted out an arcane master in astonishment. The voice was filled with a thick sense of astonishment and shock, as one of the two most studied of the four fundamental forces, the electromagnetic force has always been the basic composition of the world in the hearts of these magicians of the Silver Moon Song Alliance, the closest to the real "thing", when did it even give the essence of the electromagnetic force?

- Among the four fundamental forces proposed at present, although the strong interaction force (currently referred to as the nuclear force) is clear, there is a lack of further research, and even the basic characteristics have not been mastered, let alone the formed theory, and the weak interaction force is only the conjecture proposed by Fernando. This has not been corroborated by other experiments. I don't know when the path of the "electromagnetic force" was clarified, so after the nature of gravity was preliminarily explained by the general theory of relativity, the essence of the "electromagnetic force" was full of symbolic meaning.

All the time. Arcanists who are good at electromagnetism have a lot of conjectures about the nature of electromagnetic forces. But there has never been a complete and well-formed theory. And today's series of papers in Arcane seem to indicate the possibility of cerebral congestion!

Yurisian was reading the paper slowly, and the foundation in front of him was what he was good at, so there was no difficulty. But after hearing this exclamation, he also turned to the back and looked at the part about the nature of electromagnetic forces.

"Electromagnetic force is the interaction of photons between charged objects through a series of reactions that exchange photons?" ......the hall was silent, and I don't know how long it took for Julisian to say to himself, this conclusion is supported by complete theory, there is a mathematical description of these simple or complex processes, whether correct or not, this is one of the breakthroughs since the discovery of electromagnetic force after Brooke's equation.

The other arcanists were so confused that they could barely read the conclusion, but even so, their eyes were full of shock and joy: "Is this the electromagnetic force?"

If you can really clear the electromagnetic force thoroughly, then you and other magicians who are good at electromagnetism will get unimaginable help!

"Hmm, the three Excellencies raised the problem of quantum field theory, because how to solve the infinity brought about by divergence?" An arcane master turned to the back, it turned out that quantum field theory was not perfect enough, and there were still many problems to be solved.

I don't know why, this fact made him breathe a sigh of relief, figuring out the nature of the electromagnetic force, although he was ecstatic and excited, but he always felt unsteady, like a dream, and now he is more acceptable.

The same psychology appeared in the hearts of all the arcanists present, one of the fantastic theories of general relativity, which is beyond the times, is enough, and if one more appears, it is really not real, they quietly spat out, and laughed and said: "If you can solve the problem of infinity, you will definitely get the Evans Arcane Award and the Silver Moon Medal." ”

Although they didn't have much hope for this, it was not strange that the middle and high-level arcanists had solved the problems that the Grand Arcanists had not been able to solve, and similar things had occasionally happened in the past few hundred years, after all, the Grand Arcanists had too much knowledge and accumulated too much, but they would be bound by the past experience, and the average mid-level and high-level Arcanist might not be affected too much.

"Huh, "A Little Hypothesis for Protons and Neutrons from the Results of Scattering Experiments," ...... one of the Arcanists flipped to a later paper.

The scattering experiments mentioned in the title, they know very well that after the discovery of neutrons, the scattering experiments of protons and protons, and the scattering experiments of neutrons and protons, are constantly being carried out, accumulating a lot of data, and a few months ago, Lavendi and His Excellency Morris found that in similar scattering experiments, whether with charged protons or uncharged neutrons, the nuclear force (the current strong interaction force) will not change, and it has nothing to do with electric charge, which is just the opposite of the common understanding, in order to explain this phenomenon, many arcanists put forward hypotheses.

“...... Perhaps we can think of protons and neutrons as the same kind of particle, I call them nucleons, just as some electrons spin to the left and some electrons spin to the right, and some nucleons are charged and some are not, so they cannot be treated as different particles......" The arcanist read one of the words, his tone deeply shaken.

In the paper, Hathaway introduced a new quantum number to represent this state.

"What? protons and neutrons are the same particle?" said all the arcanists and magic apprentices present, including Yurisan, in shock.

It's not that they can't understand it, but it's a feeling of disbelief and worship of the nature of the world, is it that the deeper you go, the easier it becomes?

"So, there are only three kinds of elementary particles: nucleons, electrons, and photons, and the interaction between nucleons, electrons, and photons is expressed as an electromagnetic force?"

"Sure enough, the most essential and basic things must not be so complicated to classify!"

"This is the truth of the world?"

Sometimes, it's not the more complex the more shocking, but the extreme simple is more able to make people feel a thrilling beauty, so the arcanists, although they haven't finished reading the paper, are also inclined to Hathaway's guess. (To be continued......)
