Act 513. Gravity and space-time distortion

A genius can remember the address of this website in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? Reiner's words seemed to have dropped a stone into the originally calm lake. Since then, the calm lake surface has been filled with waves. The ripples are no longer smooth.

"Time and space are distorted?"

Lord Braggs, if he had some understanding, repeated Reiner's words.

"Under the original theory of relativity, space and time should be flat, which can explain the speed of light. However, the subsequent observation of light bending in the gravitational field makes the theory of relativity no longer complete."

Reiner said, he waved his hand, and the light formed a simple galaxy shape, a pattern of a planet orbiting a star.

"In the past, we thought that gravity was the attraction between objects, like a rope connecting two objects."

Following Reiner's words, a thin line extended from the star and connected to the planet. It was like the planet was being pulled by the star.

"This is the gravitational action mode in flat space and time. It can be seen that if this method is followed, then it will take a certain amount of time for gravity to act on objects in distant places, and the star movement of the entire universe will be extremely chaotic. model."

A continuously rotating light group appeared at Reiner's hand. This was his calculation array. After a period of calculation, Reiner calculated the celestial system of a star and three planets, and substituted the concept of gravitational speed. It can be seen that its operation is extremely irregular and completely different from the observation situation.

"Then we either assume that gravity does not take time and exceeds the speed of light, which is contrary to the theory of relativity, or we assume that gravity is not an interactive force in the usual sense."

Reiner snapped his fingers, and the chaotic and irregular movement of the stars immediately stopped.

On this surface, Reiner stretched out his hand and gently pulled down.

He created a depression in the plane of the star, which was like dropping a heavy iron ball on a flat cloth, twisting the entire plane due to the mass of the star.

Reiner then severed the connection between the star and the planet.

With a snap of his fingers, the entire celestial system started moving again.

At this time, the mages were surprised to see that the planets were moving towards the star due to the depression of the plane, and coupled with their forward speed, the two formed a perfect balance, making the movement of these planets around the star constitute a A perfect and regular movement pattern.

"This is just a demonstration image. The real distortion of four-dimensional space-time is not that simple, but it can also reflect my conjecture."

Looking at the star map that was constantly rotating on the sunken plane, all the mages were silent.

"Space-time is not flat. Any object with mass will cause distortion of space. The greater the mass, the greater the distortion. I call the degree of space distortion into curvature. In this way, I can explain why light rays in large objects There is deflection all around.”

Reiner explained.

“In the original theory of relativity, light always moves along the shortest path between two points. From the perspective of gravitational deflection, this seems incorrect, but if massive objects cause the curvature of space-time, it can Solve this problem, that is, light always moves along the shortest path, but light cannot penetrate space and time, and can only move in distorted space and time, so in our view, this produces the phenomenon of light deflection!"

"At the same time, the distortion of space and time also explains the transmission of gravity. The reason why the transmission of gravity can exceed the speed of light is not because it propagates extremely fast, but because gravity does not need to propagate at all. The essence of gravity is the space-time caused by massive objects. The interaction that comes with bending!”

Reiner said that the calculation circle around him was running fiercely, which was calculating the deflection angle of light after adding space-time distortion.

Soon, Reiner got his answer and showed it to everyone.

Its value is almost consistent with the observed value.

It is exactly double the value calculated according to the original law of gravity!

"...Space-time distortion..."

If Lord Alberton has some realization, he is also making calculations in his mind.

If space is not flat, if the existence of objects affects space, if gravity is really caused by the distortion of space and time...

"This can also explain why time becomes slower around massive objects, because when light keeps traveling at the same speed around these objects, it takes more time to travel in distorted space-time, so , the passage of time becomes slower..."

Lord Alberton solved a problem that has been plaguing mages since the theory of relativity was proposed, and that is why the flow of time slows down in a strong gravitational field.

"Wait, based on this inference, can we assume an extreme situation, that is, when the gravitational field reaches a certain value, the time it takes for the speed of light to travel in it will become longer, so long that it will not even be able to escape? "

Lord Braggs' words were like a thunderbolt, causing Lord Alberton and Fielder to encounter a bolt from the blue.

"We can do the math."

Reiner immediately began to calculate, and then other mages also entered the values ​​​​and performed calculations.

This process lasted for half an hour, and the entire control room was silent.

Phyllis looked at them. Although he couldn't really understand it with his level of magic theory, Phyllis could feel that these mages seemed to have discovered some incredible secrets of the world. She looked at Reiner and felt that she was carefully calculating at this moment. Reiner has a completely different charm than usual.

Finally, Reiner was the first to get the result.

Calculation results show that when a huge amount of mass is concentrated on a small point, an extremely powerful distortion of space-time will occur, causing an area around the point in which light cannot escape. This means that The horizon around this singularity will be truly pitch black.

At the same time, this singularity will trigger a series of relativistic effects, including that time near the singularity will be greatly delayed. On the surface of the event horizon, external observers will even observe that time stops. At the same time, the strong gravity of the singularity will cause The light traveling by nearby galaxies is also distorted. Simply put, the values ​​of some mathematical constants in these galaxies may change.

This singularity is like an abyss that swallows everything. Even the fastest light in the universe cannot escape from its grasp.

"Such a singularity, I think we can call it a black hole."

Reiner said, he looked outside, and saw the crystal clear spatial distortion in the light of the searchlight.

"And the past theory of relativity should also be revised, from the original special theory of relativity to the current general theory of relativity."
