So my name is Aidan Reilly.

我叫艾丹·瑞利。

Now two engineers at Cambridge University claim to have solved the puzzle—and proved Rayleigh wrong.

而现在，剑桥大学的两名工程师宣布他们已经解决了这个难题—而且还证明瑞利勋爵的猜测是错的。

Fonzie is the nickname of Arthur Fonzerelli.

方奇是亚瑟方塞瑞利的昵称。

Can those chicorelli sisters dance or what?

那些奇克瑞利姐妹也能跳成这样吗？

Which brings us back, of course, to Greely's Theory of Dominance.

这就又回到了葛瑞利的骨牌理论。

We gotta get out of here. Greeley could show up at any second.

迪恩 我们得开这里 葛瑞利可能在任何时候出现。

Named after the British physicist, John William Strutt, also known as Lord Rayleigh, who discovered it in the late 19th century.

它以英国物理学家约翰·威廉·斯特拉特，也被誉为瑞利爵士命名。他在19世纪发现了这个现象。

The sky is blue because of Rayleigh scattering, where bluer light bounces off air molecules better than redder light.

于瑞利散射，天空是蓝色的，蓝色的光比红色的光更容易从空气分子中反弹。

So, the moon appears red for the same reason that sunrises and sunsets on earth are red because of a phenomenon called Rayleigh Scattering.

所以使月亮显现出红色的就是使地球上的日出日落，呈红色的原因于发生了瑞利散射现象。

Aidan Reilly was just a junior in college when he founded Farmlink, a company that rescues food surplus and donates it to food banks.

在艾丹·瑞利创办农场链接公司时，他还只是一名大三学生，这家公司专门回收过剩食物，并将其捐赠给食品银行。

Rayleigh knew that a kettle makes that sound when steam jets through the hole in a thick lid that has a gap in the middle.

瑞利勋爵知道水壶发出声响是于水蒸气穿过厚厚盖子中间有空隙的孔所致。

Once the frequency of light got into the ultraviolet range or higher, the Rayleigh-Jeans law didn't fit the results of experiments at all.

一旦光的频率达到一定程度的紫外线辐射或更高，瑞利-吉斯定律永远不会对应于实际结果。

Even worse, if you summed up the contributions of higher and higher frequencies to calculate the total power emitted by a blackbody, the Rayleigh-Jeans law predicted that you’d find infinite power.

更糟糕的是，如果你将越来越高的频率的贡献相加来计算黑体发出的总功率，瑞利-金斯定律预测你会发现无穷大的功率。

The equation they came up with, known as the Rayleigh-Jeans law, predicted that the higher the frequency of the radiation – and therefore, the shorter the wavelength – the higher the intensity.

他们提出的方程式被称为瑞利-金斯定律，预测辐射频率越高——因此波长越短——强度就越高。
