Research starts with PhD students

Chapter 168 Experiments, meetings, and new research: Definitely beyond the previous life!
Zhang Shuo's message consisted of just two short sentences, discussing a niche "academic controversy".

There have been reports on Isaac Reese's research in the public opinion before, but most people still don't know about "Isaac Reese's research" and will just skip it even if they see the news.

Academic things are really too complicated.

When it comes to advanced theoretical physics, most people feel like they have read it and it's the same as not reading it at all.

However, the message Zhang Shuo sent still caused a lot of discussion. The number of fans of his Weibo account has increased to nearly five million, and there is also a large group of college students. Occasionally, a message he sends will attract a lot of comments.

People outside the academic circle don't care whether Isaac Reese's research is correct or not.

Many people even hope that it is wrong. Isaac Reese is a foreign scholar. His research is wrong, and it was published in a scientific journal. It sounds very interesting.

As for the discovery of CP destruction, it involves the mystery of the formation of cosmic matter, which is too far away from most people.

So most of the comments below were supportive, and there were also some discussions, "Even the great Zhang Shuo said it's meaningless, it's definitely meaningless."

"Isaac Reese? I've never heard of him. He deserves special mention from Master Zhang Shuo."

"I saw a news report that his research was published in Science magazine. Science magazine is very authoritative, right?"

"To be precise, it is Science Physics, an academic journal of physics under Science magazine, not the main journal. It can only be said to be on the edge of the top physics journals, but not as good as the real top physics journals."

"Theoretical physics, it's hard to say, right? Anyway, there is no complex mathematics, and it is impossible to tell who is right and who is wrong, so I support Zhang Shuo."

"..."

While attracting a large number of comments, many media outlets also forwarded Zhang Shuofa's news, which also sparked more discussion.

As the discussion grows, there are naturally dissenting voices.

For example, Dr. Xinqi stood up and publicly opposed Zhang Shuo's views. He also posted a screenshot of the conversation with Zhang Shuo, saying, "Professor Zhang Shuo is right. Everyone has their own opinions."

He just sent this sentence and didn't say anything else because saying anything else might have a negative impact.

Many people also made neutral or opposing speeches.

These have no effect.

In fact, some scholars in the field of physics hold opposition or wait-and-see attitude towards Zhang Shuo’s statement, but they will not openly oppose it in public opinion, and they just watch to know Zhang Shuo’s attitude towards research.

Public opinion did not ferment for long, mainly because the research did not have much appeal in terms of public opinion.

next week.

Zhang Shuo went to the capital together with Academician Yang Haifeng, Professor Tian Honglan and Gao Xiaohong from the School of Physics.

Yang Haifeng and Tian Honglan went to attend a theoretical physics conference held by the Institute of High Energy Physics. The experimental work of the Institute of High Energy Physics had not yet been completed, but the theoretical physics conference had been prepared in advance, and some scholars who arrived earlier could have discussions first.

Zhang Shuo and Gao Xiaohong went to the experimental base of the Institute of High Energy Physics.

After entering the experimental base, he and Liu Ye asked around and found the three-person team of Luo Yongjun, Liu Chengjie, and Li Liu Shuangyue who were involved in the experimental data analysis.

Luo Yongjun arrived a week earlier than Zhang Shuo. Just like last time, he brought his doctoral students to participate in the experiment.

This job does have its benefits. For example, the Institute of High Energy Physics will reimburse all expenses, and you can also receive certain subsidies.

For example, it can train doctoral students.

Luo Yongjun values ​​the latter more. He hopes that by participating in the experiment, Li Liu Shuangyue can understand what mathematics can do.

PhD students and graduate students are different.

Most graduate students just study, but doctoral students must learn "applied mathematics".

After Luo Yongjun arrived at the experimental base, he was assigned a small office, just like last time, with a tutor and two students, and was also assigned a lot of computational analysis work. Everything seemed the same as more than a year ago, with the only difference being that one of the students was replaced by Li Liu Shuangyue.

Then, Luo Yongjun became distressed.

Li Liu Shuangyue, excellent in grades, quick in thinking and learning, much better than Liu Chengjie...

But the problem is, he is far behind Zhang Shuo!
Li Liushuangyue has done a very good job. Her work ability should be compared with that of Liu Chengjie, who is also a doctoral student. Liu Chengjie is one grade higher than her and this is his second time coming to the experimental base, but he did not behave like a senior.

Luo Yongjun certainly couldn't say anything about Li Liu Shuangyue, so he could only say Liu Chengjie with regret, "Liu Chengjie! This is your second time here, right? You've studied for an extra year, but I don't see that you're much better than the last time."

"Why is it like this?"

"Look at Shuangyue..."

Li Liu Shuangyue looked up instantly, "Teacher Luo, just call me Yueyue."

Luo Yongjun nodded slightly and continued what he was saying, "Look at Yueyue. She just entered school and this is her first time here. She's not worse than you in terms of calculation speed or accuracy, right?"

"May I ask you, what have you done in this year?"

Liu Chengjie's face turned red after being scolded.

He had become immune to Luo Yongjun's scolding, but the problem was that there was a pretty schoolgirl next to him, and it was really embarrassing to be scolded directly by the tutor.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Chengjie turned around and saw Zhang Shuo, his eyes almost wrote a few words - 'The savior is here'.

Luo Yongjun also saw Zhang Shuo and Gao Xiaohong, and immediately walked over to greet them, "Zhang Shuo, Xiaohong, you're all here!"

Zhang Shuo nodded and asked, "Teacher Luo, how is the work going? Is it difficult?"

Luo Yongjun smiled and patted his chest, "Don't you know me yet? This is a piece of cake for me!"

"is it?"

"Of course!"

Luo Yongjun said this with great confidence.

Liu Chengjie almost rolled his eyes to the sky. Li Liushuangyue didn't care what Luo Yongjun said at all. He directly called Zhang Shuo and said, "Senior, come and help me. These equations are a bit difficult to solve..."

"it is good."

Zhang Shuo walked over immediately.

Gao Xiaohong pulled a chair and sat down next to Luo Yongjun's desk. While whispering to Luo Yongjun, she glanced in the direction of Li Liu Shuangyue.

Luo Yongjun was also looking over there, but the difference was that he was looking at Zhang Shuo, wondering in his mind whether he should take back the boast he had just made.
Let Zhang Shuo help?

This will make the work easier.

……

The new experiment conducted by the Physics Center of the Institute of High Energy Physics has relatively strict requirements, with high experimental intensity, complex data, and high requirements for data analysis.

The main goal of the experiment is to clarify the phenomenon of particle motion deviation in the cp group's experiment.

In addition, the experiment itself is also very important. The data will be directly used by the computing center to conduct experimental deviation analysis. In addition, with the participation of cooperative groups from nuclear organizations, the requirements for data calculation and analysis are higher.

The cooperative group sent by the Nuclear Organization mainly works in the CP group, and they are directly involved in the detection and data analysis work of the CP group.

The leader of the collaboration is Professor Kijan von Schmidt, who arrived at the experimental base a month ago, hoping to gain a comprehensive understanding of the CP group's strong magnetic interference super decay experiment.

On the one hand, their job is to participate in the experiment, and on the other hand, they also need to understand the experimental mechanisms and experimental data.

The Institute of High Energy Physics is also very supportive of the cooperation group of the Nuclear Organization. They hope that the CP team of the Nuclear Organization can successfully replicate the strong magnetic interferometry super decay experiment, so that the particle motion deviation phenomenon can be completely confirmed. At that time, it will be confirmed that a new physical phenomenon has been discovered.

This is the research result of the Physics Center and the CP Group. Zhang Shuo sat in Luo Yongjun's office for half an hour and then had to leave because he was very busy at work.

He went directly to the cp group.

After asking about the experimental issues, Yu Fei introduced Professor Kijan von Schmidt of the collaboration group.

Kijan von Schmidt talked about the experiment with Zhang Shuo and praised the physical theory he was studying. "It's really amazing that your theory can discover new physical phenomena. At least part of it is correct."

He asked puzzledly, "I have studied that framework, it is amazing, the analysis starting from the fundamental forces has never appeared before (in the physics world)."

"I think I have a certain understanding of that theoretical framework. According to this theoretical basis, the deviation of particle motion found in the experiment, does it mean that we have found the intersection of the fundamental forces?"

“You can say that, but not necessarily.”

Zhang Shuo gave a vague answer, and then explained, "Professor Schmidt, you should know after reading the framework that the expression of basic force is very complex and is described from many aspects."

"In this way, each basis can be understood as a three-dimensional straight line with smooth properties, but in fact it is not the case. Therefore, there is not necessarily a focus between forces. There may also be areas of commonality, or there may be some special correlations."

Kijan von Schmidt pursed his lips and nodded, jokingly saying, "I seem to understand, but I also don't seem to understand. I really don't understand what you theoretical researchers are thinking."

Zhang Shuo also laughed.

Schmidt continued, "What do you think of Reese's research? Isaac Reese, University of Pennsylvania, you should know it?"

Zhang Shuo nodded and commented, "It's meaningless."

"as I thought."

Schmidt smiled and said, "I knew you would say that, because your theory itself has an explanation for the deviation of particle motion, at least it has a direction. Li Si's research believes that the two experiments are the same phenomenon, which means that the discovery of the strong magnetic interference hyperon decay experiment is also CP violation, which is completely inconsistent with your theory."

Without waiting for Zhang Shuo to say anything, he continued, "Will you attend that theory meeting?"

"of course."

Schmidt nodded and said, "Believe me, many people will support Reese's theory. I heard that some people can't wait to confirm it."

"That's CP violation, an irresistible result. It will be the biggest discovery in physics in the past fifty years!"

……

In the new experiment, everything went smoothly.

The Cp group's strong magnetic interference hyperon decay once again detected clear signals of particle motion deviation.

The news was announced to the world by the Institute of High Energy Physics Logistics Center and the Nuclear Organization.

Although it was not the first discovery, this one was very important because it was a formal experiment with a high intensity, and the number of hyperons increased by an order of magnitude.

In addition, since the nuclear organization collaboration group participated in the experiment, other institutions will also be involved, which makes the argument more persuasive.

To some extent, the particle deviation phenomenon has been established.

Of course it is not 100%, because no other organization has been able to successfully replicate the experiment, but the same organization cannot convince everyone.

Data collation and analysis will be required later, and the computing center will also conduct deviation analysis and calculations for the experiment.

At this time, the work came to an end and the Physics Center could not wait to hold a theoretical physics conference.

The meeting place is on the first floor of the Physics Center building, and several classroom-like rooms in the side low-rise buildings are also used.

The Physics Center invited many people to participate, including some famous theoretical physicists in China, some well-known experimental physicists, and several foreign experts.

The total number of participants was nearly two hundred, which was slightly more than expected.

Zhang Shuo is also very interested in the conference, because its content is to study the phenomenon of "particle motion deviation" in particle collision experiments and strong magnetic interference hyperon decay experiments, and there will definitely be a lot of theoretical discussions and research.

These can help expand thinking and improve task progress. He has already established tasks in advance.

【Task 1】

[Research project name: Theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity (difficulty assessment: A). ]

【Progress: 30.321%.】

(The task can be canceled. Currently, the number of scientific research coins required to cancel the task is 0.)
(The remaining progress requires 2100 scientific research coins.)
This is research in the direction of "Source Point Theory".

After establishing the task and conducting some research, Zhang Shuo knew that he would definitely surpass his previous life, because the 'weakening correlation between electromagnetic force and gravity' that he understood in his previous life could only bring '30%' progress.

There is still 70% research in this direction that has not been conducted.

Once all the research is completed, we will be able to find the theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity, and then we can verify it through experiments.

By then, the connection between the basic forces will be proved, and it will bring about new physics and even technological applications.

He was looking forward to this very much.

At 7:30 in the morning on the day of the meeting, Zhang Shuo arrived at the Physics Center of the Institute of High Energy Physics and met with Professor Yan Ming from the Theoretical Physics Office.

The Center for Physics is the conference sponsor.

Yan Ming is the chief researcher of the Theoretical Physics Office and is directly responsible for conference-related matters.

After Yan Ming met Zhang Shuo, he explained the meeting process, "This is an impromptu meeting, and we don't have much time to prepare. Everyone can express their ideas."

“Even if the research is imperfect, you can still make a report.”

"We discuss and research together in the hope of knowing the specific phenomena discovered by particle collision experiments and CP group experiments."

Zhang Shuo nodded and said, "This is a good idea. Let's brainstorm and discuss it together."

He was very clear that the unknown physical phenomenon was the chaotic force field, and he planned to explain his research at the conference. At the same time, he also wanted to hear other people's opinions, which might be helpful to his research.

Yan Ming continued, "This morning's topic is whether unknown physical phenomena are CP violations."

After he finished speaking, he asked, "You know Reese's research, right? He believes that unknown physical phenomena are CP violations, and he has made very detailed arguments. We should study and discuss this issue together."

“Is this still up for discussion?”

Zhang Shuo was puzzled. "I don't think there is any need to discuss this. This research is meaningless."

Professor Zhang Minghe of Capital University suddenly came over and said, "Of course we need to discuss it. We can only draw conclusions after detailed research and analysis."

Zhang Shuo and Yan Ming both looked over.

Zhang Minghe said, "Professor Zhang Shuo, I know your research, but theoretical physics must also be inclusive of other people's research. Rees's argument is rigorous and convincing."

Zhang Shuo shook his head and said, "I read his paper. He didn't do a normal argument. Instead, he used the results to infer the process. Even the results are problematic."

"What could be wrong with that?"

As they were talking, several people came over together. Yan Ming hurried over to greet them and said, "If you have any specific questions, we can discuss them in the meeting."

"Right."

"All right!"

Zhang Shuo didn't say anything else. Even if the first topic was Reese's research, it proved that there was something wrong with the research, so he just needed to quickly move on to the next topic.
