Rutherford's words woke up Eddington who was still in his dream.

Ever since he got his paper yesterday, Eddington has struggled with the word "time travel", and in his subconscious, time travel is about going back in time.

It was precisely this kind of thinking that made Eddington's thinking drill the tip of the horns, believing that the second law of thermodynamics could completely negate the rotating universe model proposed by Chen Muwu.

But in fact, even if it is negative, it is only half of the negative.

The remaining half, which is also time travel to the future, is, indeed, as Rutherford said, not violating the second law of thermodynamics.

Seeing that Eddington and his son-in-law were frowning at this paper, Rutherford continued to speak and reassure: "Gentlemen, you are just too entangled in the model of the universe that he proposed, but you ignore the existence of the other two solutions in the paper.

But in fact, even ignoring this somewhat controversial model of the universe, this young man named Chen Muwu found the exact solutions to the two field equations, and this paper alone was enough to be published in the Bulletin of the Natural Science Society.

"So, instead of having you stuck in this office, why not publish this paper and have theoretical physicists around the world brainstorm a big discussion about whether this universe is right or not? Just like Chen's first paper, physicists from all over the world were invited to help him do experiments. ”

After all, he was the eldest of the three, and Rutherford directly gave the solution to this problem.

Putting aside the controversy of Chen Universe, the correctness of the two solutions given by Chen Muwu is indeed irrefutable.

In that case, it is completely possible to do what he gave.

Eddington paused: "Sir, you are right, I will send this paper to the editorial office of the Bulletin of the Natural Science Society, and ask them to arrange for publication as soon as possible." ”

Rutherford, who was sitting on the sofa, saw that the problem had been solved satisfactorily, and had already taken out his pipe from the pocket of his suit, filled the cigarette dots, and then smoked calmly.

He took a deep breath, highlighted a long smoke ring and said, "Arthur, Ralph, what do you think of this Chen Muwu's level of physics?" ”

Fowler honestly answered his father-in-law's question: "Sir, when I saw the first paper, I thought that his level was basically that of an undergraduate, but he was favored by Lady Luck, and by mistake, he used his shallow knowledge of physics to solve advanced problems.

"But after reading today's paper, I realized that I was too short-sighted, and Chen's physics level should be much higher than that of the boys I am teaching at Trinity College now!"

Eddington also followed suit: "Chen Muwu is a young man recommended to me by Dr. Einstein in a telegram, and he did not hesitate to praise him in the telegram, it seems that Einstein really did not look away." ”

"Gentlemen, since you all have such a high opinion of this Chen, then I think it is a pity to let such a genius be reduced to a small engineer in the Far East.

"Why can't we invite Chen to the Cavendish Laboratory, to Cambridge, and to plunge into the ocean of physics with us? Trinity College can have a Ramanujan in mathematics, and of course, there can also be a Chen Muwu in physics! Rutherford showed his love for talent.

Rutherford, like Einstein, despised the profession of engineer.

Not only did he despise engineering, but Rutherford, a physicist, also had a pride in believing that physics was a supreme discipline, and he once uttered such arrogant words as "all science is either physics or philately."

However, God also likes to joke with him, and awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 to him, who has always considered himself a physicist.

Upon hearing the news, Rutherford could only comfort himself by laughing at himself: "There is no faster chemical change in the world than myself, because overnight, I went from a physicist to a chemist." ”

Rutherford's proposal, of course, was also approved by Eddington and Fowler.

They all believed that no young man in the world who aspired to physics would refuse an invitation from Cambridge University or the Cavendish Laboratory.

Rutherford asked Eddington not to rush the papers to the Royal Society, and to let them follow him to Trinity College to find his teacher, J. Brown. J. Thomson persuaded him to accept the offer to recruit Chen Muwu to Cambridge.

As the dean of the college, the elder Tomson has complete autonomy in admissions, as long as he sends out an invitation, basically Chen Muwu will enter Trinity College, Cambridge University, which is a sure thing.

Old Tomson saw his beloved apprentices Rutherford and Eddington, and Fowler coming to the door together, and thought that something big had happened.

When they proposed to invite a young Chinese student to study at Trinity College, he suddenly became interested: "Arthur, what are you talking about the last time you personally sent the paper, and now the whole physics community is restless?" ”

"Yes Sir it, that's Chen. We have recently received a new piece of paper from him and intend to publish it again in the Bulletin of the Natural Science Society. After the publication of this paper, it is expected that the physics community will once again fall into a deeper madness. Eddington replied honestly.

"Is it still about scattering theory?"

"No, sir, this time it's a treatise on relativity. It says ......"

Nearly 70 years old, Tomson has devoted his life to studying the world of onlookers within the atom. Whether it is ether or relativity, he has become an old stubborn and has not much interest in these things.

In addition, there is the model of the atomic solar system proposed by the student Rutherford, which the elder Tomson also does not accept, and he still stubbornly insists on his model of raisin pudding.

After listening to Eddington, old Tomson nodded: "From the first paper, I admired this Chinese young man named Chen Muwu, his paper is full of creativity. Since it was recommended by the three of you, Ernest, Arthur, and Ralph, I think I should be comfortable signing such a document and inviting Chen to come to Cambridge University. ”

After getting the approval of the elder Tomson, Trinity College quickly issued two official letters, one to the Education Committee of the British House of Commons, asking them to transfer it to the British Legation in China through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and ask them to invite Chen Muwu to study at Cambridge University on his behalf.

The other was sent to the Legation of the People's Republic of China in the United Kingdom, 49 Portland Street, London, and asked them to forward the invitation back to China.

Eddington also paid out of his own pocket and went to the telegraph office to take a telegram to Chen Muwu, not only telling him that his second paper was about to be published, but also conveying the good news that Cambridge University had invited him to study abroad to the Far East as soon as possible.
