This divergence, known as the ultraviolet catastrophe, hinted at a deep-seated flaw in classical physics.

这种被称为紫外线灾难的分歧暗示了经典物理学中的一个根深蒂固的缺陷。

Today, you learned about the ultraviolet catastrophe, and how it was resolved by Planck’s law.

今天，您了解了紫外线灾难，以及普朗克定律如何解决它。

So, the ultraviolet catastrophe was resolved.

于是，紫外线灾难就发生了。

Today, you learned about the ultraviolet catastrophe, and how it was resolved by Planck's law.

今天我了解了紫外线灾难以及它是如何解决普朗克定律的。

And that name isn’t really an exaggeration – the ultraviolet catastrophe was disastrous for conventional thinking about the physics of light.

这个名字并不夸张——紫外线灾难对于光物理学的传统思维来说是灾难性的。

And that name isn't really an exaggeration – the ultraviolet catastrophe was disastrous for conventional thinking about the physics of light.

而且这个名字并没有被夸大——紫外线灾难对于对光本质的传统思考来说是“灾难性的”。

One of the most important clues that light had to be more than just a wave was what's known as the ultraviolet catastrophe.

紫外线灾难是光不仅仅是波的最重要证据之一。
