Top Student

Listening to Xu You's words, Qiao Sen also nodded in affirmation.

"That's right, using supercomputers can indeed greatly improve computing efficiency."

In today's world, supercomputers with top computing speeds can reach hundreds of billions of calculations per second.

Such high computing efficiency is also in line with Xu You's needs.

This time, Xu You didn't need to ask Wang Xiangwu for help anymore, it was just a matter of time.

After all, the electricity bill needed this time is definitely not as simple as last time.

With Xing Shuping's ability, he must have access to supercomputing.

After Qiao Sen told Xing Shuping about Xu You's thoughts, Xing Shuping invited Xu You and Qiao Sen to meet again for a detailed discussion.

When they arrived at Xing Shuping's office, Xing Shuping entertained Xu You and Qiao Sen with good tea.

"Xu You, I have to say, this is really an incredible idea! You can apply software modeling to the work of searching for superconductors. I really don't know how you came up with it!"

Xing Shuping looked very excited. For Xing Shuping who has such a rich experience, there are few things that make Xing Shuping so excited.

At this time, Xing Shuping really has the hope of finding a new high-temperature superconductor with a higher critical temperature.

"Academician Xing, during the test, the accuracy of the software simulation prediction is still very high. But because the amount of data is too large, we still hope to use supercomputers to help with calculations."

"Well, this is no problem, I will help to contact. Of course, before that, we need to optimize the program for supercomputing, and estimate the time and cost required. As long as the plan is feasible, we will definitely try our best I will do my best to help you complete this plan."

After that, Xing Shuping used his relationship to find the person in charge of the supercomputing center, and everyone discussed various matters related to using supercomputing for calculations.

Xu You also needs to optimize the software program for the supercomputing system.

And for the current Xu You, this is also within the scope of Xu You's ability.

After completing the testing of the software in the supercomputer, the first batch of calculations officially started.

Although the first batch only selected a few basic elements, and the number of each atom was relatively small.

However, because the amount of data is still large, even if supercomputers are used to calculate, it still takes a long time and consumes a huge amount of power.

Of course, because of the special nature of this project, many expenses have been reduced.

And when the calculated results are received.

Xu You, Qiao Sen, and Xing Shuping were all shocked.

"I actually calculated hundreds of superconducting substances!"

These substances that are considered to have superconducting properties are all substances that are predicted to be superconducting with a probability of more than 99.99% in software simulations.

If the degree of simulation of the software is indeed very high.

This will undoubtedly be a big news that shocks the whole world.

In the past, even if a superconducting substance was discovered, it was enough to publish a paper in the top journal.

If each of these hundreds of superconducting substances is published a paper.

It is absolutely possible to contract several issues of "Nature".

Of course, compared to all the hundreds of millions of species of matter involved in the calculation.

It is not very unusual to find hundreds of superconducting substances.

In addition to the discovery of so many new substances that may have superconducting properties.

Behind them, all are also marked except the predicted superconducting critical temperature.

Among them, some are relatively low, already close to absolute zero.

Some are relatively high, reaching tens of K, or even more than 100K.

"Hundreds of superconducting substances... I have never fought such a rich battle before!"

The sudden surprise made them not know what to do next.

If only one or a few types are predicted, it is actually very simple.

Just prepare these kinds of substances directly, and then test their superconducting properties.

However, if you want to prepare and measure hundreds of substances, the amount of work required is extremely huge.

Xu You calmed down quickly, and began to search for the one with the highest superconducting critical temperature among these substances that may have superconducting properties.

"Academician Xing, Teacher Qiao, look, here is a 150K one!"

Looking along Xu You's fingers, both of them saw this substance with a very complicated molecular formula.

Compared with the copper oxide, which is known to have the highest superconducting critical temperature at normal pressure, reaching 138K, the molecular formula is even more complicated.

However, the superconducting critical temperature has increased by as much as 12K.

"Academician Xing, my suggestion is to first select the substances with the highest superconducting critical temperature and try to prepare them. If the preparation is successful, the superconducting properties can be measured to verify the accuracy of our software model If the first few are not easy to prepare, we will make up for them according to the order of superconducting critical temperature."

Xu You knows that even if the accuracy of the software simulation is high enough, it does not mean that these molecular structures can be synthesized.

There is still a long way to go before the breakthrough of superconducting critical temperature.

Next, Xing Shuping assigned the selected substances to various material experts and entered into the preparation of materials.

Xu You is not professional in the preparation of materials, but for the purpose of learning, Xu You still actively participates in the work of material preparation.

It is conceivable that it is difficult to prepare such an unknown material with a large number of atoms.

During the preparation process, many unexpected problems also appeared.

This makes the work progress somewhat slowly.

And during this period.

In Xu You's mailbox, he received an email from the other side of the ocean.

"U.S. China Academic Exchange Committee?"

After seeing the sender of the email, Xu You searched for this organization.

This is an academic organization initiated by institutions such as the American Academy of Sciences.

Its purpose is to promote academic exchanges between Chinese and American academic groups.

Afterwards, Xu You read the contents of the email.

The main message in the email is to invite Xu You to go to the United States for academic exchanges, hoping that Xu You can explain in detail his theory of high-temperature superconducting mechanism.

Xu You didn't know if this was really an invitation sent to him by that organization.

But no matter what, Xu You would definitely refuse this invitation.

Let Xu You go to the United States at this time...

Not to mention that it will delay the progress of the project.

If you really go there, whether you can come back is a question.

Xu You didn't reply to the email in a hurry, but first notified Qiao Sen of the news.

"Mr. Qiao, I received an email from the American Huaxia Academic Exchange Committee."
