Hello Everyone! I am (half) a physicist. 大家好,我是(半個)物理人steemCreated with Sketch.

in #introducemyself7 years ago (edited)

Hello everybody on Steemit! I am John from Hong Kong. I did Physics and Mathematics at University and have recently graduated. That's one of the two reasons I said I am only half a physicist. The other reason was because I know far too little about Physics to call myself a physicist: Physics is a very deep and broad subject that asks the most profound questions about our Universe. Nowadays, physicists have to spend years just to be good at a very narrow topic. I am certainly not as professional as them! But I do have a geniune passion to learn about our beautiful Universe.

Steemit上的大家好!我是個剛剛從大學畢業的香港人。大學時我修讀數學和物理,所以嚴格來說我只是半個物理人。我也不敢說自己是個物理學家,只因物理實在太博大精深了。今時今日,物理學家光是要在物理裏面的一個細小的範籌成為專家,已經要花上以十年為單位的時間了。我實在不敢以物理學家來稱呼自己。可是我可以不臉紅的說自己是一個物理人:我真的對理解這個宇宙的奧秘非常的有熱情。


According to the arXiv, apparently these are the topics there are in Physics:
根據arXiv的分類,好像物理還有挺不少分支的,支支都不簡單的啊:


Let me tell you why I joined the Steemit community. First of all, I really enjoyed reading some of the articles on Steemit when I was introduced to it by a good friend. It seems everyone is very friendly here as well! The vast number of articles on Steemit covered many topics, but as half a physicist I immediately noticed one thing: where are the posts related to Physics? That was what motivated me to create an account: I want to try to bring this interesting subject to more interested people!

等我講一下為什麼我加入了Steemit吧。當我的好朋友介紹Steemit給我,我發覺在Steemit上有很多很有意思的文章,這裹的人也給我非常友善的感覺。可是作為半個物理人,我馬上發覺一件事:跟物理有關的熱門文章似乎有點少?我決定申請一個帳戶,希望可以在這裹把這個(至少我覺得)很有意思的科學帶給大家。


What kind of Physics will I be talking about then? Perhaps you can give me some ideas! (Then I will try my best...) Actually what comes to your mind when you think of Physics?

物理學裏有那麼多的分支,那我會想寫什麼樣的物理呢?或許你可以給我一點靈感?(然後我試試去寫吧。。哈哈)。話說物理讓你聯想到什麼東西呢?


Newton hit by a falling apple?

無辜的牛頓?

(from John the Math Guy at http://johnthemathguy.blogspot.hk/2012/10/the-apple-doesnt-fall-far-from-newton.html)


Einstein's ridiculous hair?

愛因斯坦的髮型?

Some science on a blackboard?

黑板上的方程式?

(from https://www.timeshighereducation.com/student/subjects/what-can-you-do-physics-degree but by the way, half of what's on that blackboard is not Physics. 不過其實這塊黑板上有一半不是物理。。。)


I am sure many of you thought of this!

應該有不少人聯想到這道有名的方程吧!


(from pexel, or Einstein himself!)


We are getting close to the kind of Physics that I did at uni. What I did was actually more like
我們離我在大家讀的物理愈來愈近了。其實我在大學讀的比較像下圖


(from http://einstein-schrodinger.com/Standard_Model.pdf)


Please don't be scared! As Einstein said (or is credited for saying):

"If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself."

I am not Einstein (He's my favourite physicist, by the way), but I am guessing you aren't six years old either :) Maybe it will work out. Who knows. Maybe next time!

請不要立馬走人!聽說愛因斯坦說過這樣的一句話:

"如果你不能跟一個六歲的小孩子講明白,你自己也沒有很懂。"

我不是愛因斯坦(他是我偶像!),但幸好你也不止六歲 :) 或許能行? 或者下次吧!


If you have read all the way down to here, thank you very much! I look forward to hearing from you all. Nice to meet you again everybody!

如果你有耐性看到這裏,我真的很感謝你們!希望你們能留個言,大家交個朋友。多多指教!

Sort:  

這是我的朋友,請大家多多支持他,現在社區裡好像比較少有關科學方面的帖子,希望能為Steemit帶來更多元化的文章。

Thanks htliao my friend :)

呼叫 @coinbitgold 你們的新人到了.... :)

欢迎欢迎。多讲讲物理。多讲讲量子。其实有些问题连爱因斯坦也搞不清。昨天我刚去看了他的故居
https://steemit.com/cn/@nationalpark/princeton-university-art-museum

@nationalpark 能去他的故居太棒了!我將來也一定要去一趟 :) 其實很多問題愛因斯坦也搞不清。。他是一個很有自己的想法的物理學家。

期待這樣的科普內容!

@ygern 多謝!如果你對什麼特別有興趣的,歡迎提出,大家可以討論一下 :)

Hello and welcome fellow physicist.

Hello, add oil with your science post, i have created a tag for #cn-science and cn-stem in the past, but apparently got removed.

Love to see more science post here!!
Upvoted and followed

@carobetc Thanks for the encouragement! I will try to write in both languages but that has proved to take quite a bit of time haha. I will see how it goes. Thanks for upvoting and following, if there are particular areas of physics you find interesting feel free to bring it up! I might be able to write something about it :)

Hello and welcome to steemit Mr. Physicist. I wish you lots and lots of success on this amazing platform :)

nice post! I recently made a post to get people to like maths again, it looks like you are the ideal person to start getting people working on their math abillities 😄

Thanks @oudekaas! Indeed if one wishes to understand the physics properly then the maths is essential!

高中时候物理老师神采飞扬地讲物理学家的故事,讲到最后只剩五分钟,马上迅速地把课讲完了!

@sylvia1997 哈哈,講物理學家的故事也不錯啊!至少他不是在講自己的故事 :P

对的,他讲得非常有趣! 讲麦克斯韦,还讲尼采。那些物理定理我不一定都记得,故事还在我脑海里

@sylvia1997 一直覺得物理學家的故事比課本有趣多了哈哈。可能有空我也可以寫一下一些物理學家的故事 :)

欢迎欢迎,我会捧场的

Welcome to Steemit Mr. Physicist :D Looking forward to some great posts from you!

@firepower Thank you! I hope you will enjoy them too!

Hii john nice to read about you.i am surendra from india,am also a new on steemit and welcome you to steemit.i have followed you.so, can you also follow me.Best of luck.
