Tech Hammer

It is probably difficult for ordinary people to understand Luo Zhiqiang's complicated mood at this time. He even began to hate himself for getting old and his brain was really not flexible anymore.

Even watching Liu Wei walk into the room, carefully sorting out the manuscript papers that Ning Wei had thrown on the table, and then put them into an unstandardized file bag, affixed a seal, and put it into the locked file bag. It's like sleepwalking.

Again, ordinary people really can't understand how scientists like Luo Zhiqiang feel when the beliefs they have always believed in suddenly collapse. That is probably a more shocking feeling than the earth shattering and the world changing.

But the brain can still think, but the things it thinks probably have nothing to do with science.

For example, at this time, he felt that Ning was being too cautious for the people around him...

As for what Ning Wei just wrote on the manuscript paper, even if it is made public immediately, the people in the world who can read and understand Ning Wei's series of thoughts will most likely be counted on two hands. And even if you understand it, so what?

There must be at least half or even 80% or 90% of these people who will not agree with Ning Wei's theory, and they may even have a quarrel. Of course, it is also possible to divide into two groups and start to quarrel. CERN will be very busy next , the previous collider at the Philadelphia Laboratory has been shut down. Currently, the only equipment that can verify Ning Wei’s idea is CERN. Everyone will try to find ways to prove how ridiculous Ning Wei’s idea is...

What if it turns out to be true?

Haha, that will be at least ten years later, right?

After knowing Ning Wei's goal, Luo Zhiqiang probably knew how much data was needed for this experiment, and he didn't think that in just one month, he would be able to find results that were sufficient to support this theory.

The reason is actually very simple.

Although the LHC is indeed very powerful, it cannot achieve precise collisions. All current CERN research is based on quantity.

Why does it take a long time for the LHC to start running? Because only countless collisions can generate enough data for these people to find the beautiful encounters they need.

Even if the data generated in one month is a huge amount, Luo Zhiqiang still feels that it is not enough. Of course, even if there is more data, processing is a problem.

etc……

It seems like March...

At this moment, Luo Zhiqiang suddenly felt itchy. If all the data collected by the LHC in the past ten years could be given to Ning Wei, the amount of data would definitely be enough. Maybe enough useful things could be analyzed from it in March. Ning Wei's theory is correct...

Yes, Luo Zhiqiang felt his soul was shaken when he thought of this eventuality.

This is definitely no less than the achievements of Newton in developing the mechanical system and Einstein in proposing the theory of relativity. Physics will open a new chapter, and the physics of the earth will officially enter the era of great unification. The 21st century will be a great era of physics. They can finally glimpse the truth of the universe and understand the operating mechanism of the universe...

This is just like what is said in The Strings of the Universe. Scientists have been working hard to combine small and light things with large and heavy things. The former, such as various particles, belongs to the research theory of quantum mechanics; the latter is the universe. The research field of science studies stars, galaxies, and even the universe. The most representative theory is general relativity.

Both have various evidences in their respective fields to prove that each is right, but if general relativity and quantum mechanics are merged together, it will be found that this will bring huge disaster.

But the universe is not so extreme. There are still small and heavy things, such as black holes...

Then there are only two possibilities, either one of the two theories of general relativity and quantum mechanics is wrong, or even both are wrong, or there is an undiscovered theory that can combine the two.

Today he learned again that there is indeed such an alternative, and it may be verified at this stage.

Luo Zhiqiang had to admit that as an old guy who had studied and studied physics for nearly thirty years, he really couldn't resist this temptation.

Yes, at this moment, Luo Zhiqiang even had the urge to find a way to steal all the data accumulated by CERN over the years and let Ning Wei hand it over to March for analysis in order to find valuable results as soon as possible.

Really, this impulse has nothing to do with the nationality of the two people. It is not based on the so-called national interests, but purely for science. This is faith. The ancients said that if you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening. Probably best describes Luo Zhiqiang's mood at this time.

So he even felt that Ningwei should make these theoretical results of pure mathematics public at this moment, because in this case, Luo Zhiqiang is sure that there will be many physicists within CERN, regardless of nationality or race, who will hope that CERN can disclose to Ningwei To share all the data over the years to see if this theory holds true. Although Ning Wei's theory is similar to the current situation of string theory, both are deduced using purely mathematical methods.

But there is no way. Under the current technological conditions in the world, string theory is basically impossible to prove through experiments, but Ning Wei's theory is possible to be proved. The difference is huge.

Moreover, Luo Zhiqiang believes that Ning Wei’s mathematical level makes it impossible for there to be obvious errors in the derivation process.

The only thing I can't figure out is why Ning Wei didn't write a paper on his success. If so, where would he need one billion to conduct experiments? Why would Alex dare to come here and show off his power? He felt that CERN should ask Edwin George to kneel in front of Ning Wei and beg him to analyze the data at the request of countless scientists.

Facts have long proven that the computing efficiency of CERNVM and Worldwide LHC Computing Grid platforms are completely inferior to the March intelligent data analysis system. As we all know, although the LHC is the largest and most complex detection system in the world, and is even so sophisticated that each detector is equipped with hundreds of millions of detection units, the lack of a matching computing system will seriously delay the advancement of science and technology.

So, when Luo Zhiqiang finally recovered from the shock, he immediately couldn't help but asked Ning Wei: "Academician Ning, your research is already very complete, why don't you consider compiling it into a paper and publishing it? I believe this paper Once published, there will definitely be a lot of support for your theory!”

After hearing this, Ning Wei smiled shyly and replied modestly: "No, Professor Luo, don't say that. After all, whether it is quantum physics or cosmology, my research time is still short. Moreover, these current results may just be my whims. Physics is a science that advocates verification, and I also hope to have enough evidence before considering whether to publish a paper. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing to make people laugh."

Luo Zhiqiang immediately retorted: "No, no, no, Academician Ning, that is not the case. Even at the physical level, there is a market for purely theoretical articles. Superstring theory also believes that the universe should have ten space dimensions and one time dimension. Well, how do we verify it? Kaluza-Telein's theory also believes that the curled dimension is at the Planck length, and there is also a market! Scientific illusions must first be put forward, and only after everyone demonstrates them together can they develop rapidly. The more the truth is debated, the more It’s clear!”

Ning Wei nodded and replied: "Professor Luo, what you said makes sense. I will consider it carefully. If this experiment cannot get enough data to verify my theory, I will consider using this theory The proof process should be moderately open. As you have just seen, this project is still very large. Now it is better to work hard and find more evidence. And don’t you think there are not many physicists studying string theory in the world?”

"So if we find more evidence to support this theory, I think more scientists will be able to study this theory. Let's work together to find the short space. This is my goal. To tell you the truth, another On the one hand, the construction of our own high-energy physics laboratory in the Intelligent Research Center is still accelerating, and on the other hand, our own CEPC plan is also advancing normally. All of this still takes time."

"When all this is ready, of course I will publish the theory, so as to attract like-minded and capable people to come to China and work with us to advance this research. If that time proves my The theory is correct, and with March's computing power, the theory can be applied into practice as quickly as possible. Professor Luo, what we need is not just theory, but also the corresponding technology."

"If my theory is correct, it also means that we have the means to transmit information faster than the speed of light in the universe. If we develop suitable protective materials, information can be transmitted in and out of the short space without loss, and two different spaces can be found at the same time. The method of coordinate conversion and the energy and method of crossing space mean that in the future we will have a railway grid that can span the entire universe."

"Even if we don't want to be so far away, our generation can at least build a railway line across the solar system. Professor Luo, think about it. By that time, through the short-space transportation network, we will be able to transport any materials to the solar system. Any extraterrestrial celestial body within. The fourth interstellar voyage technological revolution has begun, and we will likely enter the interstellar era in the near future... So, don’t worry, really don’t worry, Professor Luo.”

Although Ning Wei said don't rush, these words can really easily make a scientist get upset.

From the short space to the fourth technological revolution and then to the interstellar age, everything transitioned so naturally. It even made a devout believer in science start to have crazy ideas in his mind, and then spread.

But Luo Zhiqiang didn't show it. He just nodded seriously to Ning Wei and said: "Academician Ning, I believe in your judgment. Don't worry, I will let everyone fully cooperate with your work. I look forward to this experiment." , we can create miracles.”

"Haha, thank you very much, Professor Luo, let's work hard together."

…

Luo Zhiqiang seemed a little distracted on this day.

The ancients said that a man is not confused at forty, and knows his destiny at fifty. Luo Zhiqiang used to think so too. He is almost fifty, and his contribution to the field of high-energy physics research is probably similar to the papers published in recent years, involving thousands of people. Signed papers are sorted alphabetically by name.

It has been on the news a few times, but mostly it was fleeting. Even if it appears in the news about Yanbei University, the number of views is very few. In fact, not many people in the country know him.

The only thing that makes Luo Zhiqiang proud is that he has trained many promising students at CERN over the years. Several of his students are already leaders in related fields in China. Of course, it is also limited to China.

Originally, Luo Zhiqiang felt that this would be the case for his life.

When he was young, he once hoped that he could make great achievements in his life and become the Einstein of the new era. However, after truly studying this field in depth, he discovered that he no longer had the conditions required for a breakthrough in physics in this era. He has spent more than thirty years climbing the ladder that has been built by his predecessors and becoming an expert at this level, but when he wants to go further, he can only rely on global cooperation.

To put it bluntly, the most basic scientific research work actually does not require talent anymore. Finding different things from complicated data relies more on experience. But if you want to push the existing theory further and break out of the shackles, you need talent.

Why is biochemical environmental material a tiankeng specialty? The whole world is saying that the 21st century is the century of biology. Why do students who are truly rooted in biology make self-deprecating remarks urging people to study biology? Isn’t it because current progress in these directions completely relies on countless repeated experiments? Once you get stuck, you will almost have to deal with all kinds of test tubes and instruments for the rest of your life. Many times, you even have to rely on luck to get results.

Therefore, at the age of forty, Luo Zhiqiang has lowered his requirements. He only hopes to see new breakthroughs in physics in his generation in this life, and his life is not in vain. Then he applied to come to CERN and began to teach graduate students here. He did witness some breakthroughs, but they were still far away from serious theoretical breakthroughs.

Even if the God particle was discovered, it was a discovery guided by the Standard Model. However, whether the Standard Model itself is correct or not is still unclear in the academic community.

To this day, I am brainwashed by Ning.

Humans are strange and contradictory animals. For example, highly intelligent people are actually very difficult to be brainwashed, but once they are successfully brainwashed, they can be brainwashed far more thoroughly than ordinary people. He even risked his life to defend the truth he believed in.

But one can imagine how tangled up my heart was during this process.

Of course, Ning Wei really didn't expect that just by casually demonstrating his thought process to Luo Zhiqiang, so many ideas would pop up in his colleague's mind. This can only be said that people’s experiences are different. Ningwei has hardly experienced any setbacks in his academic career, and has never experienced self-denial. Naturally, he cannot understand what ordinary researchers feel when they hear this derivation theory. impact.

He just simply hopes to share his academic achievements with others, especially when he is first questioned and is not in a good mood. Find someone to share your theory with, and then call the American just a fool and that's it!

As for the others, Ning Wei didn't think much about it. It was even more unbelievable that he could make people want to do big things by talking about purely theoretical things. Of course, this is not the charm of Ningwei, but the charm of science.
