From small town academic to chief scientist

Chapter 342 Textbook becomes a key step in fusion

Since World War II, the center of mathematics in the world has shifted from Europe to China.

The Ugly Kingdom also strongly supports science and technology, and now their position as the center of mathematics will change hands in less than a hundred years.

How can they accept it.

What's more, the current competitive relationship is still there.

As for who Zhou Yi asked, it must be the foreign mathematics professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

The reason why Chou Country is so powerful in science and technology is that in addition to local talents, there are also a large number of foreign talents.

This group of foreign talents occupies a very important position and proportion.

Even Deligne is from Belgium.

With Zhou Yi's current influence, he can easily get a lot of information from this group of foreigners.

Maynard breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said:

"That's good. We must not lose to Chou Country."

Since the beginning of the tripartite alliance, the relationship between the professors at Chongqing High School has become more united, and their goals have turned to Chou Country.

Therefore, in the minds of these Europeans, they must not lose to the ugly country.

After lunch, everyone took a lunch break. Except for the professors who had classes in the afternoon, most of them actively participated in the book compilation project.

It wasn't until after dinner that Zhou Yi had time to go to the laboratory.

Academician Li saw Zhou Yi coming and said:

"Academician Zhou, you are here."

Zhouyi said:

"Well, I have some ideas."

Academician Li said:

"We also have some new ideas, but we just don't know if they will work."

Zhou Yi was a little surprised that he was able to come out of failure and come up with new ideas in such a short period of time.

As expected of an academician, his ability to withstand attacks is first-rate.

Zhouyi asked:

"What do you think?"

Academician Li said:

"Initially, graphite, beryllium, and tungsten were all used as material choices for plasma-oriented components, but experiments have proven that they all have their own shortcomings, so we have to give up now."

Zhou Yi also studied this deeply and said:

“According to previous data, beryllium materials cannot withstand the thermal shock of fusion plasma, and carbon materials retain large amounts of tritium;

Our previous experiments also showed that the impurity plasma generated by tungsten material has a low tolerance and is easy to core, affecting the long-term stable operation of the tokamak. "

Academician Li suddenly said:

"What we want to do is add diamond, which has an SP^3 hybrid structure and perfectly meets our requirements."

When Zhou Yi heard this, he sighed that he was indeed a top academician specializing in this field.

It turned out to be pretty much what I thought.

Zhouyi said:

"I'm also thinking about this material. If diamond and tungsten are combined in a special arrangement, will a new material appear?"

“You know, diamond has physical and chemical advantages that others cannot match.

For example, it has high hardness, low physical sputtering rate, strong chemical inertness, and good thermal conductivity.

More importantly, in a fusion plasma environment, diamond is composed of carbon elements that are more friendly than tungsten, and are allotropes with graphite. "

Academician Li's eyes were shining. He did not expect that his views would be so similar to those of Zhou Yi. He said with a hint of excitement:

“Based on the use of graphite before tokamak devices, we have rich experimental data and experience in using carbon materials.”

"Yes, we will definitely succeed this time."

Zhou Yi said with great certainty.

"Academician Zhou, the special arrangement you just mentioned?"

Academician Li recalled Zhou Yi's words and asked doubtfully.

Zhouyi explained:

“This inspiration came from making asphalt, and Kepler’s Week Theorem is a stacking problem. This is where my inspiration came from.

We use mathematical means to perform special stacking and then perform composite optimization to get our best results. "

Academician Li said:

"We can start now. Prepare the previous experimental data and the required materials."

Zhouyi said:

"Can!"

For many days in a row, Zhou Yi was so busy that his feet never touched the ground.

However, the progress of the experiment is not smooth sailing. Even if you have an idea, it is still very difficult to succeed.

It wasn't until a month later that Zhou Yi decided to redeem the points for subsequent questions.

After reaching this point, it will definitely cost less than 10,000 to redeem the subsequent technology.

In mid-May, Zhou Yi silently said to the system in his room:

"System, how many points are needed to redeem diamond film and tungsten composite technology?"

The cold voice of the system sounded:

"Ding, you need 3000 points."

This damn thing also requires 3,000 points. Zhou Yi cursed secretly and couldn't bear it.

However, considering that the previous evaluation reports were all 3,000 points, now this 3,000 points is not much.

Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and said:

"exchange."

"Ding, spend three thousand points, congratulations to the host for obtaining diamond film and tungsten composite technology."

The cold voice of the system sounded in Zhou Yi's ears.

"The content is distributed to the host's notebook in the form of a PDF paper. Please pay attention to the host's attention."

Zhou Yi opened it and read it. All the doubts, mistakes and puzzles in the experiment were solved at this moment.

What surprised Zhou Yi the most was that he actually used something from Kepler's Zhou Theorem.

Although Kepler's conjecture is not proved by Zhouyi, it is given by the system.

But Zhouyi understood it very deeply, and it is not an exaggeration to be the best in the world.

Zhou Yi watched until late at night. It wasn't until Xia Xue urged Zhou Yi to go to bed that Zhou Yi washed up and went to bed.

Before going to bed, Zhou Yi checked his points.

22,500 points, now only 19,500.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yi arrived at the scheduled classroom as usual and started busy compiling teaching materials.

Maynard said with a hint of excitement:

"Academician Zhou, good news, we can complete the textbook in a week at most. I wonder what the name of this book is?"

Zhou Yi also knew that the textbook was about to be compiled and he was about to start naming it.

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"How about calling it "The Unification of Algebra and Number Theory"?

easy to understand. "

Zhou Yi's voice was so loud that almost all the mathematicians present heard it.

We are all science otakus who study mathematics and know very little about literature.

It can be said that it is basically zero, how to do it simply and clearly.

What is important is the naming of the theorems in the book.

These days, many small questions and conjectures have been solved by everyone.

Whoever solves it first will get the name.

And how to format the author's name in the entire book, these are the most important things.

Of course, the most important thing is the correctness of the content.

If there is even the slightest mistake, not only the namer of the theorem will be embarrassed, but everyone here will be embarrassed.

After everyone was silent for a while, Bill Carr, represented by Shuimu University, said:

“The name is okay, it’s simple and clear, but the key is that the content in our book still needs to be reviewed by someone.

It's just that our review may not comply with the process, and we need other mathematicians to help us identify whether there are any errors.

The so-called authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly. "

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"This is indeed the truth. I will ask Teacher Deligne and Teacher Qiu Chengtong to help me take a look.

Senior Sister Xiao can ask Mr. Purcell and Mr. Farjens to help. "

Xiao Wanyi said:

"I have no problem here, I even asked them about the progress in Europe."

Sun Song on the side asked:

"How's it going?"

Xiao Wanyi said with arrogance:

"Of course it's not as good as us. We are a super talented beautiful girl and a super talented junior brother who attack at the same time.

How can the other four Fields Medal winners be faster than us? "

Sun Song selectively ignored the first words, but the next words were the key point.

"But our first draft has to be hung on the scientific research assistant to announce that we have finished the first draft."

Xiao Wanyi said finally.

There are not many opportunities to leave a name in the history of mathematics in this direction.

As long as those who study mathematics in the future learn this direction, they will inevitably mention the names of these people repeatedly.

So everyone takes it very seriously.

Zhouyi said:

"Then let's do this. I'll show it to Teacher Deligne, show it to Professor Zanek, and show it to Teacher Qiu Chengtong.

Senior sister showed it to Mr. Purcell and Mr. Farjens.

As soon as the first draft comes out, I will hire a scientific research assistant. "

"In fact, if the Riemann Hypothesis can be solved, perhaps it can be completely solved in the three directions of algebra, geometry, and number theory."

Xiao Wanyi said with a hint of excitement at this moment,

"It's a pity, it's too difficult."

Everyone rolled their eyes, is it not difficult?

Deligne has been researching for so long but has not been able to prove it.

There are too many mathematicians around the world studying this conjecture, but no one has ever proven it.

Everyone looked at Zhou Yi. If Zhou Yi took action, would this problem be solved?

Zhou Yi was a little embarrassed, why are you looking at me? I'm busy.

Zhou Yi coughed and said:

"Don't look at me, I'm studying NS equations. I'm more interested in this issue recently.

For some turbulence of plasma, I need to use something in this direction,

Fitting calculations are needed to simulate the best solution. "

Everyone shook their heads in disappointment.

Controllable nuclear fusion is of great significance not only to Daxia, but also to the entire human race.

Moreover, the NS equation is also a millennium problem, and if you want to persuade me, you can't say it instantly.

The mathematicians present all deal with pure numbers and basically don’t know how to apply them.

While sighing, I was also a little envious.

Pure numbers are poor.

He is really poor.

"Okay, everyone is busy first. When you finish your work later, I'll treat you all to a big dinner."

Zhou Yi said.

After a while, everyone started to get busy and study the topic in their hands.

Zhou Yi was working on something while thinking about controllable nuclear fusion.

The theory of supercooled boiling must involve turbulence, and when it comes to turbulence, it must involve the NS equation.

Zhou Yi originally thought that there was not much content in the NS equations involved, but with the deepening of the research, the numerical simulation must use the turbulence model.

Since it is going to be used, Zhouyi is ready to completely solve the NS equation.

The content related to controllable nuclear fusion is omitted directly.

About its existence and smoothness can be published.

After the day passed, Zhou Yi arrived at the laboratory immediately after dinner.

Start explaining the paper I got yesterday.

Academician Li on the side said:

"Academician Zhou means to design a new type of internal rib heat exchange structure that not only updates composite materials?"

Zhouyi said:

"That's right. There are a lot of theories involved. We hope we can figure it out before July."

Before July, Zhouyi could roughly study a special manifold.

It is not only suitable for the turbulent flow involved in nuclear fusion, but also conforms to the NS equation.

As for proving its existence and smoothness, according to the current progress, it will have to wait until 2028.

Talked all night,

Based on the previous foundation, everyone understands a lot.

"Based on the size of the Mono-block through-tube tungsten block, we can use the new MPCVD resonant cavity to prepare diamond and tungsten composite materials and conduct plasma physics research."

When Zhou Yi said this, Professor Chen on the side said:

"Academician Zhou, there is a problem here. We need to design a new software for finite element simulation.

The previous COMSLO Multiphysics software may not be adapted to our needs. "

Professor Chen has been immersed in this direction for many years and said it to the point.

Zhouyi said:

"Don't worry, I already contacted Professor Chen Danqi and the others before coming here.

They are already organizing people to develop this software, and it will probably be developed by the end of the month. "

Everyone at the Institute of Computer and Artificial Intelligence of Chongqing High Court felt relieved when they heard this.

They are the biggest contributors to leading the world into the era of artificial intelligence.

Next week,

The textbook "Unification of Algebra and Number Theory" was compiled as scheduled and caused quite a stir in the mathematics community.

The teaching materials are currently being reviewed by many big names.

People from the European Mathematical Society and the American Mathematical Society were very depressed when they heard the news.

Obviously they were the first to compile the textbook, but unexpectedly, the Chongqing High Court was the first to write it.

It involves many conjectures that cannot be proven or denied.

If the strength is not super strong, the compilation speed will not be very fast.

Moreover, Zhouyi also stopped the mathematics section of the scientific research assistant.

He couldn't even get up quickly.

It is an unstoppable fact that the mathematics of Daxia has moved towards the center of the world.

The three elements of results, teaching materials, and super mathematicians basically come together.

But Zhou Yi was not in the mood to care about what the public opinion outside was like at the moment.

I don’t want to know how highly international peers recognize this textbook.

In the laboratory, Zhou Yi had already explained the contents of the paper very thoroughly.

Chen Danqi and others also designed the new software needed by Zhou Yi and others on time.

and put it into application.

Zhou Yi lamented that fortunately, he had trained Chen Danqi and the others before.

Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to lead people to design the software again.

This is the foundation laid before.

In mid-July, in the nuclear fusion laboratory, everyone present clenched their hands into fists.

This is the first step towards controlled nuclear fusion.

Whether we can succeed or not depends on today.

Not long after, under Zhou Yi's instructions, the experiment was slowly started.

The tokamak, which is composed of a composite material composed of new material diamond film/tungsten and a newly designed new internal rib heat exchange structure, has been slowly running.

Academician Li said with a hint of excitement:

"Academician Zhou, can it be done this time?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the laboratory looked at Zhou Yi.

If this step is successful, it will be more than half of the way to the success of controllable nuclear fusion.

Zhou Yi looked around them, unable to contain his inner excitement.

This is unlimited clean energy.

Zhou Yi said with a trembling tone:

"Yes, we will definitely succeed this time. Believe in our efforts and our intuition, we will definitely succeed."
