Membranes and Spacetime
Many scholars believe that interpreting the experiment from the String Theory is correct, because they already know that Level 4 Civilization can Warp Speed Travel and achieve Superluminal Communication. Based on the known information, it is speculated that Tachyon are likely a product that must have been discovered during the exploration of the Grand Unified Theory.
According to the known 'Grand Unified Theory', which is a hallmark of Level 4 Civilization, and since Level 4 Civilization possesses Warp, it would also have Superluminal Communication capabilities. Therefore, it is possible that Warp Speed Travel technology and Tachyon technology are both based on discoveries made under the Grand Unified Theory.
While this consideration may seem far-fetched, it is not entirely without merit.
In other words, humanity has not yet mastered the Grand Unified Theory, but it has already discovered Tachyon, which should have been discovered after the Grand Unified Theory was discovered. Although it was discovered indirectly by chance, it still counts as a discovery.
So, can we use the logic of indirectly discovering Tachyon to deduce clues about the Grand Unified Theory?
Some scientists have already thought in this direction. After all, the Grand Unified Theory is the goal of mankind. Only by realizing the Grand Unified Theory can mankind truly understand what Tachyon are and make it possible to create Superluminal Communication devices, detectors, and Warp Engine.
So, what kind of mechanism exists between them?
Human scientists are currently at a loss as to how to explain this, because they are still embroiled in a debate about whether String Theory can correctly explain the experiment. Some believe it is correct, some believe it is wrong, and some even doubt that String Theory's description of this aspect is wrong, which is why they have come to such a conclusion that contradicts the experimental results.
Their reasoning is that interpreting the experiment from String Theory only suggests the possible discovery of Tachyon, without altering the technological applications of Tachyon or even the more specific theories surrounding Tachyon. They argue that even if the String Theory interpretation is correct, it only amounts to humanity barely confirming the existence of Tachyon, and this proof remains questionable.
In general, opinions varied widely, and scientists were divided into several groups, each with their own views and perspectives. For a long time afterward, the academic community was incredibly active, with academic seminars, scientific exchanges, and debates on the principles held continuously, and even dedicated critiques of String Theory emerged.
Many people have expressed concern about the disagreements that have arisen in the academic community, but Yue Yuan is optimistic. In his view, he would rather see the current situation than the lack of progress in experiments over the past century, even if it is caused by a false or erroneous conclusion.
He himself did not show any bias towards any opinion. As the leader of civilization, he maintained a neutral stance and supported the views of all the scientific teams.
Yue Yuan's attitude largely reflects the attitude of the New Government.
Scientists who understand this point have fewer concerns and continue to debate and research. Truth only becomes clearer through debate, while errors cannot withstand scrutiny.
Of course, Yue Yuan wasn't just sitting idly by. After all, humanity had long established scientific supremacy, and the New Government was mainly composed of technocrats. Under these circumstances, as the leader of the civilization, Yue Yuan would also participate in meetings about technological development.
However, he rarely spoke, and mostly attended scientific seminars with different viewpoints as an observer.
For example, right now, Yue Yuan is sitting in the venue of a seminar on a series of physical relationships, such as String Theory, membranes, Grand Unified Theory, Tachyon, and Warp.
With current technology, meetings are usually held in virtual worlds, where each participant connects to Virtual Cabin and controls a virtual character from a first-person perspective. However, perhaps these scientists were a bit nostalgic, as this meeting was unusually held in the real world.
Yue Yuan listened attentively in a corner of the venue.
The meeting had been going on for about an hour, and at that moment a scientist who supports String Theory was passionately explaining his views on stage.
"The D-Membrane is already familiar to us; it's where the string in spacetime can terminate. Now I want to tell you that we can imagine them in another way."
At this point, the PPT video presentation prepared by the scientist was displayed on the screen in the venue, and synchronized to the Personal Terminal of every participant through the venue's AI assistance, including Yue Yuan.
Seeing that the data had all been synchronized, the scientist on stage continued, "We can imagine them like this: they are black holes with zero temperature. When we have many membranes, one on top of another, I think this is a good idea because it is very likely the answer we are looking for."
Okay, let's start with D0-Membrane. As our Human Civilization explained in the last meeting, in String Theory, there is no net force between two D0-Membrane. Their Gravity attraction is exactly canceled out by their electrostatic repulsion.
They will not annihilate each other like D0-Membrane and Anti-D0-Membrane, so we can consider placing two D0-Membrane, one on top of the other, or even stacking any number of them, without worrying about violent annihilation-like reactions occurring between them.
"It's common knowledge that the annihilation of D0-Membrane and Anti-D0-Membrane produces Tachyon. But what about multiple, or even any number, of D0-Membrane stacked together? Everyone is certainly curious about the physical phenomena that might occur. Of course, when discussing physical phenomena, we must consider their context: is it the context of our Grand Unified Theory, or the context of the universe in this Galaxy Era?"
"In addition, as everyone should know, we currently cannot perform arbitrary stacking experiments between D0-Membrane. Yes, we cannot precisely manipulate the D0-Membrane, but that does not mean we have no way to control the D0-Membrane at all."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room nodded in agreement. It was indeed true. If humanity had no way to manipulate the D0-Membrane, there would be no previous theory about interpreting experiments from String Theory perspective. Clearly, this so-called manipulation referred to that Astronomical-Level Particle Collider.
The scientist who Chen Shu his point paused, then pointed to the changing animated video on the screen showing the interactions between the D0-Membrane, and continued, "The theory suggests that the more D0-Membrane are superimposed, the more the spacetime is warped in their vicinity. This might be the clue we've found regarding the relationship between the information about the principles of Warp Speed Travel and the Grand Unified Theory."
The interactions between D0-Membrane likely hold the secrets of Warp, and it is also related to changes in mass. D0-Membrane, Tachyon, spacetime distortion, Warp —when we truly understand their relationships and find corresponding evidence in experiments, that may be the time when we truly discover Grand Unified Theory.
