P14: Crushing Dimensions: From Spacetime to the Physics of Cosmic Doom (降維打擊:從時空結構到宇宙毀滅的物理學)
In this talk, we’ll take a journey into the hidden layers of spacetime. We’ll explore the wild idea of “Crushing Dimensions” (that appeared in science fictions) and what it might mean for the ultimate fate of the universe. Don’t worry - there is no heavy math and theory. It’s a chance to peek behind the curtain of reality itself, to see how modern physics pushes the limits of our imagination, and to ask: could the end of the universe already been written into the fabric of space and time?
這個演講我們將帶領大家踏上一段旅程,走進時空隱藏的深層結構。我們會探討一個大膽 (並在科幻小說中出現) 的想法 ——「降維打擊」,並思考它對宇宙最終命運的意味。
別擔心 —— 這演講沒有艱深的數學和理論,而是一個窺探現實的機會。你將了解現代物理學如何突破人類想像的極限,並一同思考:宇宙的終結,是否早已寫在時空的結構之中?
