The one who spoke was naturally that Master Xiao Wang. This person relied on his own reputation, and his circle had been mixed up. He didn't care about the occasion at all. It seemed that he had come prepared.

In fact, many people in the circle are unwilling to provoke him, that is because of his temper, like a poisonous snake, he will not let go of his bite, and he must make his opponent bad.

Most of the readers around did not know Master Xiao Wang, but felt that the scene in front of them was very dramatic.

The people in the circle were frightened by Master Xiao Wang's viciousness, and it was not easy to stop him directly in such a public situation, so he could only rely on Lu Menglin to deal with it himself.

Lu Menglin looked at the arrogant guy, but there was an awe-inspiring feeling in his chest.

"Ask whatever you want!"

Master Xiao Wang gave a dark smile, and said, "I've read your "Anti-Material Warfare" too, and it's really well written! But, I doubt if it was written by you yourself!"

"I heard that you are only a sophomore in high school, but a high school student who didn't even go to college can actually write this kind of hard science fiction. He is familiar with the academic theory of antimatter. I believe that many readers here have questions, so I want to ask Yes, did you really write this novel yourself?"

Master Xiao Wang's accusation can be said to be quite serious. If the answer is not good, it is very likely that a promising young author will be ruined.

And for him, it is obviously irresponsible to raise this question, or even question it.He elevates himself to the position of representing the readers, easily standing on the highest moral point.

Lu Menglin shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile, "Do you want me to prove that this novel is my original creation?"

His self-deprecating answer immediately aroused laughter.

Master Xiao Wang came prepared, of course he would not be perfunctory with a few casual words, he straightened up and said, "You don't need to prove it yourself, I specially invited a friend who is a nuclear physics researcher." Expert, currently working in Kunming Institute of Physics. He will ask you a few common sense questions about antimatter. As long as you can answer them well and prove that you have dabbled in the subject of antimatter, then you can prove that you are the author of this article .”

"If you can't answer this basic question, it proves that you are not the author of this novel, but someone else."

As soon as Master Xiao Wang said these words, the audience was in an uproar.

Who would have thought that he would invite a researcher who specializes in antimatter to come here to verify whether Lu Menglin really understands antimatter science.

This proposal sounds like nothing wrong, but when I think about it carefully, I feel that something is wrong!

Lu Menglin is the author of a science fiction novel. Isn't it nonsense that you ask scientific researchers to test the scientific knowledge of young novelists?Deliberately come to demolish the stage!

Immediately, the audience shouted, "This is unfair! Writing novels relies on imagination, not experiments! Isn't this embarrassing!"

But immediately someone continued to shout: "Writing science fiction, you should know the minimum scientific common sense and concepts."

Master Xiao Wang added: "Don't worry, everyone, we will ask him some basic concepts, and try not to exceed the level of high school."

As soon as he said this, there was booing all around him.

High school physics can't learn what antimatter is, after all, it's still embarrassing others!

However, this moment of conflict is what many people want to see.If you want to become famous as a teenager, you have to stand the test.

Lu Menglin nodded silently, expressionless.

Master Xiao Wang triumphantly called out: "Researcher Sun, please ask me a question!"

A thin, short man sitting on his left stood up and took the microphone from Master Wang.

His name is Sun Bin. To be precise, he is a hard-working laboratory dog ​​who works at the Kunming Institute of Physics. This time, he accompanied his teacher to Beijing to find foreign businessmen to purchase equipment.

He and this Master Xiao Wang were classmates in high school, and he had always been jealous of the glamor and income of these writers. Now that he finally had the opportunity to trample on people, he took Master Xiao Wang's side as a matter of course.

"Wait a minute, if I prove that this article was indeed written by me, then you should apologize to me in public!" Lu Menglin asked seriously with a light brow.

Sun Bin frowned. When he saw this kid on the stage, he felt quite upset.

This kid is only a sophomore in high school, so he can stand on the stage and enjoy the admiration of everyone. I have been studying all my life, but now I am still a poor lab dog who is ordered around by the professor every day. Why?

Master Xiao Wang smiled confidently: "Of course! If you can prove yourself, we should apologize!"

He really felt that this Lu Menglin was probably a writer packaged by Ji Hu. He was only a sophomore in high school. How could he possibly be able to write novels?

In this era of high school students, in order to be admitted to university, the liberal arts and sciences are divided into distinct categories, and it is absolutely impossible for so-called generalists to appear.

And even if this kid is really a generalist, it is absolutely impossible to surpass Sun Bin who is already doing experiments in the research institute professionally. He has already greeted Sun Bin, and no matter what, he must make him look ugly.

"Then ask!" Lu Menglin said lightly.

Sun Bin cheered up and said with a smile: "I have read your novel, and the description of the characteristics of antimatter is quite complete. I believe that the person who can write this article has a concept of antimatter that is not just It's that simple."

"It is mentioned in your article that when antiparticles and particles collide at high energy and are annihilated and offset, a huge amount of energy can be released, and this energy can be calculated by E=MC2 mass-energy formula, and this energy The release rate is much higher than that of nuclear bombs and neutron bombs, so it will be used in future wars.”

"Then, my question is, why is there more matter than antimatter in the universe we observe? Since they were born together, theoretically the amount of the two should be the same. Why?"

Chapter 55 Fighting back with strength

Frankly speaking, everyone present could understand the literal meaning of this researcher Sun's question, but when he wanted to answer this question, Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out at all, because it was too abstract.

Most of the people present were fans of science fiction, not real science and technology workers. If there were real scientists, they would yell at Sun Bin for being too despicable.

Because the question he raised is already the most cutting-edge knowledge category of modern physics, and it is simply one of the ten ultimate questions in the universe.

It's just because the people present are all ordinary sci-fi fans, and they don't have the ability to distinguish the difficulty of this problem.

Let alone a high school student, even Sun Bin himself, including the physics professor behind him, cannot answer this question at this stage.

Sun Bin wanted to use this century-old problem to question Lu Menglin in one fell swoop.

Even if this kid is well prepared for the subject of antimatter and has a certain reserve of knowledge, he will still be stumped by this weird topic.

Lu Menglin frowned even more after listening to the topic.

"If you can't answer, then just admit it! You're only a sophomore in high school anyway, so it's normal that you can't answer this kind of question!" Master Xiao Wang kept saying nasty words with a microphone in his hand.

Lu Menglin glanced across the audience, and saw that some people were worried, while others were gloating.

He took a deep breath and replied loudly: "I can answer this question. However, I can only make a personal guess from the perspective of a novel author. Because my job is to write words that readers can understand.

"After all, I am not a scientist, and even if I am a scientist, I believe it is difficult to answer this question in a more understandable language."

"The production and annihilation of matter and antimatter should be statistically balanced, that is to say, the sum of the two should be equal. However, according to the current human astronomical observation data, within the scope of the observable universe, the two are seriously out of balance .Only matter was discovered, no antimatter."

"Then, assuming that there is a region in the universe where there is a large amount of antimatter, then violent annihilation will occur at the junction of matter and antimatter, and this annihilation should continue until both matter and antimatter are exhausted at the same time."

"So I can't help but guess that if the universe we live in has a boundary, then it should be the wonderful zone that is constantly in annihilation state. And the other side of this boundary is the so-called antimatter world."

"Actually, looking at it from another angle, for the world over there, if they are defined as material existence, we are their anti-material world."

What Lu Menglin said was clear and clear, and he made a bold assumption about antimatter.

In fact, it is a bit similar to the world in the mirror. The world we live in is opposite to the antimatter world, and the boundary between these two worlds is the mirror surface, which is the boundary of the universe.

Because a large amount of antimatter is on the other side of the mirror, it is naturally difficult to find antimatter in the universe we live in.Moreover, when most of the antimatter passes through the boundary, the energy turned into annihilation is consumed.
