The thing is like this, I am reading a very serious scientific book, the title is "The Book of the Universe, from Ptolemy , Einstein to the multiverse".
is an esoteric book at first glance
Well, as can be seen from the title of the book, this book is devoted to the study of the universe, and the content is quite esoteric. I read it all the way down. , I can't help but be puzzled why I bought such a honey book in the first place.
Then comes the section of Schrödinger.
Schrödinger's equation
About Schrödinger, it is estimated that friends who have studied physics or are slightly interested in science should be known to everyone. After all, Schrödinger’s cat is so famous.
When I was in university, I didn’t know why I needed to study quantum mechanics . I still remember the fear of being dominated by Schrödinger’s equation and the one-dimensional infinite potential well... I thought I had understood it at first, but now I think about it. Probably never figured it out.
Anyway, I’m the one who fought against Schrödinger, right? , Began to read seriously.
What did I see as a result?
dumbfounded
"If Schrödinger's life in Oxford in the 1930s was too slutty, then his life in Dublin in the 1950s was extremely slutty"
? ? ? ? ?
Didn't expect to see Schrödinger's gossip in such an unknown book about the universe? ? ?
And still such gossip? ? ?
Schrodinger
Oh my god,The image of Schrodinger in my heart suddenly collapsed! ! Although I didn't know much about this teacher before, I always feel that people who can do such a profound knowledge (so profound that I can't understand it at all) are mostly obsessed with scientific research all day long. Unexpectedly, the original private life is so colorful.
At the moment, my mood is very complicated. I can’t help but check the cover of the book to make sure that I’m not reading any small newspapers... I even glanced at the author’s introduction...
Author introduction
OK Well, this Cambridge professor is not only doing science popularization of relativity and quantum mechanics, he also made a small science popularization of celebrity anecdotes about the predecessors, and he is indeed a popular science writer.
While sighing, my mother heard the cause and effect and said that scientists are also ordinary people.
Think about it, whether a person's moral character is actually not directly related to his career or personal academic achievement. It is also nonsense to assume that everything is perfect because it is a famous scientist.
I figured it out. I still respect Schrödinger, the great scientist academically, but I dare not compliment him in his private life.
Alright, although I had a hard time reading this book, I have now found a motivation to continue reading-looking at people’s microscopic life in the macrocosm (laugh
).
