Theoretically speaking, using the "sixteen-plet" as a foundation to produce "spontaneous symmetry breaking" would only take a few years.
Yet over those few years, Wang Qi had truly been busy.
His research in this field had barely begun when Mei Ge Mu interrupted it. After that, he had even handed the South Sea empirical research division over to Unforgiving Taoist. It had now been nearly ten years.
Honestly, he had nearly forgotten that he still had such a brilliant empirical research division under his name.
Even Wang Qi himself could not explain how he had gone from a "particle physics researcher" in his previous life to a "mathematician" in this one. Even he could not grasp the twists and turns of that journey.
But for the current him, mathematics was simply more interesting.
Within mathematics, he had already touched realms that Earth itself had never reached.
For him, researching mathematics was still more enjoyable.
But...
Spontaneous symmetry breaking was indeed an exceptionally important concept.
It appeared in condensed matter, particle physics, and even biology.
So-called spontaneous symmetry breaking could roughly be understood as "two forces that should theoretically have been symmetrical somehow losing one side of that symmetry on their own."
It was like looking into a mirror, yet being unable to see yourself within it. At that moment, the "symmetry" had "vanished." You and your reflection were no longer symmetrical.
That was what was known as "spontaneous symmetry breaking."
The most obvious spontaneous symmetry breaking in biology was "chirality."
On a single planet, there existed only one chirality of Path of Living Beings Source, one chirality of sugar.
Countless planets were all like this.
Yet according to the laws, the chances of left-handed carbon and right-handed carbon appearing should have been equal.
For some unknown reason, the symmetry and
