著名科学家福尔顿,曾经由于某项研究过程的需要,被迫测量固体氮的导热系数。他以完全正确的方法测量,可是测得的数字却比当时人们所想象的数字大500 倍。福尔顿将自己测得的结果与过去的理论相对比,觉得差得太远,因而没有发表自己的实验结果。也就是说, 他没有把这个新的“信息”或者“事实”写在自己的旗帜上。 The famous scientist, Fulton, was forced to measure the thermal conductivity of solid nitrogen because of the need of a certain research process. He measured it in exactly the right way, but the measured figure was 500 times larger than the figure that people thought at the time. Fulton compared his own measured results with the theory of the past, and felt that he was too far away and he did not publish his own experimental results. In other words, he did not write this new “information” or “facts” on his banner.
