内容: 对立者相成。 出处: 尼尔斯 · 玻尔《原子物理学与人类知识》 注解: (1)玻尔的“互补原理”(波粒二象性)直接受到太极图的启发,他甚至将太极图作为族徽,刻上“Contraria Sunt Com-plementa”(对立互补)。 (2)这是西方科学界对太极图最直接的致敬。玻尔认为,如同阴阳,微观粒子的波动性和粒子性看似矛盾,实则是描述同一实在的两个互补侧面,缺一不可。 Text Content: Opposites are complementary.

Opposites are complementary.
Contraria sunt complementa.

Niels Bohr, Atomic Physics and Human Knowledge
Annotation:
(1) Bohr's "Complementary principle" (Wave-particleduality) was directly inspired by the Tai Chi diagram. He even used the Tai Chi diagram as his family crest, inscribing "Contraria Sunt Complementa".
(2) This is the most direct tribute to the Tai Chi diagram by the Western scientific community.
Bohr believed that, much like Yin and Yang, the wave-like and particle-like properties of microscopic particles, though seemingly contradictory, are actually two complementary aspects describing the same reality, neither of which can be dispensed with.
