吳傳玖·初識量子力學（科學詩）

量子糾纏
把一種
微觀世界的
物理現象
拋到
宏觀世界面前……
她要糾纏誰
多麼奇妙 又
神秘莫測……
量子學
某種類似
心靈感應的現象……
喚起多少好奇
是出世的幽靈
是上帝擲出的一枚
骰子？
把習以為常的相對論
逼到絕境 以圖
取而代之 甚至咄咄逼人……
正如貝特曼先生
襪子之間的關聯
和小球之間的關聯
都是經典的關聯……
而糾纏有如
禍乎 福之所倚
福乎 禍之所伏
禍與福如糾纏
渾沌錯紛
其狀若一
交解形狀
孰知其則……
宇宙與自然 不僅
比我們想像的奇怪 而且
比我們能夠想像的
還奇怪……
今天
愛因斯坦心中
那個確定性的
經典世界 已經成為一個
失樂園 事實上
它更像一個讓人留連忘返的
歷史博物館…… 在那裡
或許可以感受和體味
牛頓時代的激情與
夢想…… 這對於
我們尋找新的實在的自然
與世界
會有所幫助……
在那裡 不確定性 糾纏和超距
將成為主角……

以文化軟實力涵養科技硬實力

對創新和科學文化的思考有歷史性、地域性兩個維度。

各國正在塑造怎樣的科學文化？中國加快推進高水平科技自立自強需要怎樣的科學文化？9月9日上午，2023浦江創新論壇·創新文化論壇將在東郊賓館舉行。時隔幾年，文化論壇回歸浦江創新論壇，探討科技創新背後的文化土壤，關注中國新時代創新文化建設。這場論壇邀請到哪些演講嘉賓？他們將與觀眾分享哪些研究成果和觀點？記者采訪了本次論壇承辦方的專家，讓讀者對論壇亮點先睹為快。

兩個維度看科學和創新文化

2023浦江創新論壇·創新文化論壇的主題為「追光：創新的精神與動力」，由科學技術部和上海市政府主辦，科技日報社、中國科學技術發展戰略研究院、上海市科技工作黨委、上海市科委、同濟大學、解放日報社、上海市科學學研究所承辦。

為何確立這一主題？承辦方的詮釋是：科學文化是科學技術發展和創新的精神土壤和動力之源。不同國家不同地區，在勇攀科技高峰的道路上形成了各具地方特色的科學文化。「文明因交流而多彩，文明因互鑑而豐富」。中西科學文化交流的先驅徐光啟曾發出感慨：「欲求超勝，必先會通。」交流、會通，是科學文化的基本內涵。

當今世界正經歷百年未有之大變局，新一輪科技革命和產業變革持續深入發展。培育與時俱進的科學文化是各國科技發展的重要力量，因此，一些思考與研討正當其時——各國正在塑造怎樣的科學文化？中國加快推進高水平科技自立自強需要怎樣的科學文化？本次論壇邀請多位國內外專家，圍繞科學文化這一議題展開探討，以促進科學文化的互鑑。

「我們對於科學文化和創新文化的思考與研討，有歷史性、地域性兩個維度。」上海市科學學研究所李輝研究員說，歷史性維度聚焦中國，從明代上海人徐光啟推動中西文化交流、引進歐洲科學技術，到近現代中國對西方先進科學技術的學習和追趕，再到改革開放後科技的快速發展……在這一進程中，中國的科學文化和創新文化是如何發展的？如今，我國正在加快推進高水平科技自立自強，這一歷史使命需要怎樣的科學和創新文化土壤？

除了歷史性維度，地域性也是此次論壇的一個維度：本屆浦江創新論壇主賓國巴西、創新的國度以色列、科技領先國家英國……多個國家以及來自本屆浦江創新論壇主賓省湖北的專家將發表主旨演講，並參與圓桌討論，探討自己所在國家和地區的科學和創新文化。（原題：以文化軟實力涵養科技硬實力；来源：上海市科學學研究所 2023-09-14）

（續上）讓觀眾感悟科學文化的內涵

通過演講和對話，觀眾會感受到科學文化的基本內涵——開放、交流和會通。李輝表示，這種內涵與本屆浦江創新論壇的主題「開放的創新生態：創新與全球鏈接」契合，中國打造全球開放的創新生態，必須厚植開放、交流和會通的科學文化，這也是舉辦此次文化論壇的意義所在。

論壇上，科學技術部黨組成員、科技日報社社長張碧湧將發表題為《以創新文化軟實力涵養科技硬實力》的演講，揭示創新文化與科技創新的關聯。十三屆全國人大常委會委員、國務院發展研究中心創新發展研究部原部長呂薇研究員的演講主題是《全民科學素質與科學文化》，分析提高全民科學素質與科技發展的關係。

作為主賓國代表，巴西科學技術創新部副秘書長奧索裡奧·科埃略·吉馬良斯·內托將發表題為《巴西國家創新體系中的技術轉移》的演講。說起巴西，人們首先想到的往往是足球和桑巴，這個金磚國家其實在科技創新方面也實力不俗，在農牧業、綠色能源、納米科技等領域有較強的科研優勢，所以奧索里奧副秘書長的演講值得關注。

牛津大學工程科學系與古典藝術系雙聘教授唐娜·寇茲的演講題目是《開放與鏈接：互聯網技術助推文化遺產全球共享》。唐娜致力於利用互聯網技術，讓全球各大博物館的數字藏品關聯在一起，從而以更多元、立體的方式呈現在公眾面前。通過她的演講，觀眾將更深入地了解新技術在文化遺產傳播方面的價值。唐娜的工作很好地體現了科學文化的開放、交流和會通。（原題：以文化軟實力涵養科技硬實力；来源：上海市科學學研究所 2023-09-14）

當下再思考「李約瑟之問」
「李約瑟之問」是研究中國科學和創新文化繞不開的一個問題，由英國學者李約瑟提出：中國古代對人類科技發展做出了很多重要貢獻，為什麼近代科學和工業革命沒有在中國誕生？相關研究統計顯示：從6世紀到17世紀初，在世界重大科技成果中，中國所佔比例一直在54%以上，然而到了19世紀，驟降為只佔0.4%。這個巨大的落差，讓李約瑟覺得不可思議。

論壇上，劍橋李約瑟研究所所長梅建軍將作《「李約瑟之問」與文明互鑑的意義》演講，討論李約瑟提出的「文明滴定」與「文明互鑑」的意義相通。對不同文明進行比較、分析的觀點，可以為新時代中國創新文化建設提供啟發。

以色列未來學家阿迪·約菲將帶來對科技未來發展趨勢的思考。她把以色列獨特的創新文化與未來思維方法相結合，自2006年以來，一直為企業提供服務，為其所處行業提供量身定制的發展方向預測，幫助企業為未來做好准備。

阿迪·約菲阿迪·約菲

作為歐盟的代表，西班牙赫羅納大學教授阿爾伯特·薩巴特·科爾將與觀眾分享《歐盟視角的數據和人工智能系統的倫理自我評估》。隨著人工智能技術的飛速發展，我們的社會文化、法律法規、管理制度等正在做出適應性改變，這位西班牙學者的演講令人關注。

作為浦江創新論壇的舉辦城市，上海的科學和創新文化有什麼特點？上海交通大學教授、國際科學史研究院通訊院士紀志剛將以徐光啟和李善蘭為聚焦點，講述《幾何原本》在中國的兩次翻譯，詮釋「文明交流互鑑是推動歷史進步的重要動力」。他的演講會提供歷史上科學文化的土壤催生創新的精彩案例，揭示西方科學文化參與構建海派文化的歷史邏輯。

論壇的最後一個環節是圓桌討論。在中國科技發展戰略研究院原常務副院長王元的主持下，巴西科學技術創新部副秘書長奧索裡奧、中國科協宣傳文化部部長郭哲、以色列未來學家阿迪、湖北省社會科學院副院長袁北星、教育部基地上海師范大學都市文化研究中心主任蘇智良將展開一場跨地域對話，引發觀眾對論壇主題的進一步思考。

Spain is struggling, and has always struggled because of its geography. Its narrow coastal plains have poor soil, and access to markets is hindered internally by its short rivers and a highland plateau surrounded by mountain ranges. It was left behind after the Second World War, as under the Franco dictatorship it was politically frozen out of much of modern Europe. The newly democratic Spain joined the EU in 1986. By the 1990s, it had begun to catch up with the rest of Western Europe, but its inherent geographic and financial weaknesses continue to hold it back and have intensified the problems of overspending and loose central fiscal control, making it among the countries hit worst by the ’08 economic crisis. — Tim Marshall

The contrast between northern and southern Europe is also at least partially attributable to the fact that the south has fewer coastal plains suitable for agriculture, and has suffered more from drought and natural disasters than the north.

Borders are important, but they don't stop geography. — Tim Marshall

Geography is the subject which holds the key to our future — Michael Palin
