Research starts with PhD students

Chapter 171 Is this a prize?

"If it's correct, it's definitely a very, very great study!"

"The word 'great' is not an exaggeration at all. One set of equations covers the particle collision experiment. Can you imagine?"

"It's just that I can't verify it for now..."

Similar words appeared in the editorial office of the Journal of High Energy Physics.

After receiving Zhang Shuo's paper, they found two top scholars in experimental physics and theoretical physics to serve as peer reviewers.

Both scholars were amazed at the research, but were not sure whether it was correct or not. They could only guarantee that the mathematical proof was correct.

"Based on the data so far, there is nothing wrong with the research."

"It's incredible to imagine that a set of equations covers both experimental and unknown phenomena and explains the relationship between the two."

"This research level is too high..."

"The only thing that can be compared to it should be the Yang-Mills equation, right?"

Research of this level does not require any review at all, so there is nothing wrong with publishing it directly.

It doesn't matter whether the equation is correct or not.

Why did so many theoretical studies appear in academic journals on physics after the Computing Center of the Institute of High Energy Physics released its data?

Some studies even look fake at first glance.

One of the important reasons is that every academic journal wants to publish the correct explanation of unknown phenomena.

Theoretical research on unknown physical phenomena may win the Nobel Prize in Physics in the future. If the research is correct, they will publish a paper that wins the Nobel Prize in Physics.

Otherwise, it has no impact at all, since this is just a paper in theoretical physics.

Theory, of course, is not guaranteed to be correct.

The Journal of High Energy Physics is a top physics journal, and the requirements for top journals are higher. However, the mathematical and logical verification of the research submitted by Zhang Shuo was very rigorous, and the subsequent experimental verification was wrong, which has nothing to do with the journal.

Therefore, the paper was quickly approved and confirmed to be published in the next issue.

……

Physics Center, Meeting Rooms.

Many people are still discussing it, the content posted by Zhang Shuo is really shocking.

By using the deviation analysis of particle collision experiments, the 'energy and force field standard equations' were completed, that is, a set of equations was used to describe the relationship between various parameters of particle collision experiments and unknown phenomena.

"The only thing I can think of for comparison is the Yang-Mills equation. Will the research on the Yang-Mills equation have an impact in the future?"

“If we can build a complete theory from this, then it’s possible.”

"I think it can. There is a lot that can be analyzed with this set of equations. Of course, the premise is that it must be correct."

"Many of the coefficients in the equation group are important parameters of the experiment. As long as a few parameters are determined, the others can be determined. The particle collision experiment has been solved..."

"Is the description of the unknown phenomenon also correct? What we are trying to solve is the unknown phenomenon. According to Zhang Shuo, it is the chaotic force field."

"The chaos force field, which is composed of the four great forces, should be able to be studied internally, right?"

"Combined with the 'Basic Force Relationship Model', I feel that there are many research directions..."

Many people had no time to think about other things, as everyone was talking about the research results released by Zhang Shuo.

Yang Haifeng smiled at Yan Ming and said, "It seems that the meeting was very successful."

"Zhang Shuo's research really overshadows all others. We can just discuss this research later."

"I see it that way too."

Yan Ming was even more shocked than Yang Haifeng. He understood everything Zhang Shuo explained. And because of this, he seemed to see many new research directions based on the 'energy force field standard equation'.

It was like opening a door to theoretical physics, and it became very rich and colorful.

Zhang Shuo sat in his seat, answering other people's questions, and at the same time he felt very excited.

The standard equation of energy force field is the Liplos-Pamir equation.

This equation is the basis of many new theories, and the source point theory is only one of them. The "basic force relationship model" he created is part of the source point theory, so it can be said that the energy force field gauge equation has laid a solid foundation for the subsequent research of the "basic force relationship model".

There were no standard equations for energy and force fields before, and the "basic force relationship model" was praised by Edward Witten, but most scholars were just interested in it. Because the research had no foundation, it was like a castle in the air that appeared out of thin air, and many people were only interested in the mathematical framework.

With the foundation in place, the 'basic force relationship model' can be continuously improved, and the source point theory will have a foundation for formation.

Of course, we can also look at the equation from other angles, which will allow us to complete other theories.

Just as Yang Haifeng said, in subsequent meetings, most scholars were only concerned about Zhang Shuo's research results. They discussed and analyzed them separately, and some people began to propose conducting research based on this.

The meeting ended in this atmosphere.

After the meeting, content related to the meeting appeared in the media, but it was not about Zhang Shuo's energy-force field relationship equation, but about Isad-Reese's research being denied.

This was a revelation from a scholar attending the conference, who also provided clear photos showing Zhang Shuo's handwritten proof on the blackboard.

After the news came out, some voices appeared in public opinion. For the public, it is meaningless if the research is correct, but it is somewhat interesting if the research is wrong.

“Famous foreign scholars are not that reliable!”

"What's the matter with CP violation? I was wondering how it could be so easy to find CP violation? This theory might be wrong. Sure enough, it's false."

"It seems that Zhang Shuo proved on the spot that there is a problem with the research? But he didn't make it clear what the problem is..."

Amid ongoing discussions, the news quickly spread abroad.

The pictures circulating in the media are very clear, and they show all the handwritten proof processes. A theoretical physicist of some level can almost understand the problem by looking at the final result.

"The signal is too strong!"

"According to this deduction and analysis, the universe should be filled with dense matter, instead of being mostly vacuum as it is now."

"So the unknown physical phenomenon is definitely not CP violation, and Reese's research is wrong."

"I read some of the interview content, and it seems that Zhang Shuo believes that Rees's research is fake. It is a process of working backwards from the conclusion. Many key points are settings, not arguments."

Soon, Esad-Reese himself also knew about it.

The fact that his research was denied is secondary. He certainly would not admit that he was doing a reverse deduction process. “I was doing normal research, and those mathematical deductions are not false.”

"This is slander!"

"In the field of theoretical physics, I am much more authoritative than Zhang Shuo. He is just a newcomer!"

That's what he said.

It’s hard to say what other people think.

Isad Reese is almost 50 years old. Compared with his seniority, Zhang Shuo is certainly no match for him.

But when it comes to the level of theoretical physics, most people still trust Zhang Shuo more, because he has created a basic force relationship framework by himself, demonstrating a very high level of mathematics and theoretical physics.

Isad Reese has only done some research on dark matter and antimatter. He has some research results, but no unique research content.

Of course, there are also some people who trust Isad Reese.

Academic matters are a matter of opinion, especially among top scholars, and there can be no definitive investigation. Some people believe that it is true.

If you don’t believe it, it’s fake.

……

Amid public opinion, Zhang Shuo first went to the computing center to pay attention to the subsequent deviation analysis and calculation work, and then returned to Soochow University with Yang Haifeng and others.

This time, I gained a lot from participating in the theoretical physics conference. The most direct benefit was the progress of the task.

【Task 1】

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

【Progress: 44.321%.】

The theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity is a branch of the basic force relationship framework, which is the "source point theory".

At this point, the progress of the previous life has been surpassed.

Zhang Shuo is still very much looking forward to this, because the theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity may realize the verification of the source point theory.

This was a dream from my previous life, and now I see hope of it coming true.

After checking the task of 'theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity', he looked at the task of studying the NS equation.

【Task 3】

[Research project name: Research on singularity problems of NS equations (difficulty assessment: A). ]

【Progress: 28.332%.】

"The NS equation has also made rapid progress, reaching over 28 percent. The two studies have some commonalities."

The theoretical connection between electromagnetic force and gravity is followed by the demonstration of the problem of solving the equation. After perfecting the weakened correlation equation, we can study the equation and find the "singularity", which means that we have found the special "transformation" point of electromagnetic force and gravity.

There is also a common area between electromagnetic force and gravitational force, that is, a certain area can be "transformed".

Now that Zhang Shuo has confirmed this, he can't wait to think about it. Such research can be put into practice.

He checked the scientific research coins and couldn't help but smile.

【Scientific research currency: 1430. 】

The reason why the number of scientific research coins exceeded 1000 was because the "relationship between electromagnetic energy loss and force field chaos" was completed quickly, and 1000 scientific research coins were directly rewarded for submitting the task.

"Looks like I need to speed up my krypton coins!"

"The purpose of earning scientific research coins is to spend them. If they are left in the system, they are really just numbers..."

After Zhang Shuo returned to Soochow University, he went to the Source Theory Research Office first.

Before he left, he assigned some tasks to Tang Haiyi and Guo Ping, asking them to think more about them in their daily lives, as he hoped to complete the research faster. He then came over to check their homework.

I didn't expect any big surprises, but Guo Ping gave me a surprise. He handed in a two-page document.

After Zhang Shuo looked at it carefully, he found that it was a study on further narrowing the boundary interval of the weakened equation.

These two pages of information directly increased the mission progress by '0.5%'.

Zhang Shuo didn't even need to understand or think about it, and immediately praised Guo Ping, "This research is very good. I think you can continue in this direction. Very good!"

He said this and nodded vigorously.

Guo Ping's face was immediately filled with surprise. He did not expect that his research would receive such great recognition.

Zhang Shuo not only gave verbal affirmation, but also promised to give Guo Ping and Tang Haiyi an additional subsidy this month, in other words, to use bonuses to motivate them to continue working hard.

Of course, the subsidy cannot be given only to Guo Ping.

Tang Haiyi also did research seriously, but the direction seemed to be a bit problematic, and the completed content did not add much to the research.

After walking out of the office, Zhang Shuo's mood became very good. He thought that he should hire a few more people. Even in theoretical research, teamwork is very important. Having other people to share the research work will make the progress grow faster.

A person suddenly came to his mind—Liu Mingkun.

At the theoretical physics conference of the Institute of High Energy Physics, Liu Mingkun studied the data released by the Computing Center based on the "basic force relationship model" and analyzed some very novel contents.

"How about inviting Liu Mingkun to join the project team?" Zhang Shuo decided to ask.

Zhang Shuo went up to the second floor and happened to meet the dean, Tan Youming.

The first thing Tan Youming said when he saw Zhang Shuo was "You're back." The second thing he said was, "Are you ready to apply for the Outstanding Young Scholars Program?"

"Uh~~~"

Zhang Shuo really didn't make any preparations.

Tan Youming understood immediately and tried to persuade him, "Zhang Shuo, I know you don't lack funding, but you still have to apply for the Young Elite Scholarship. This is the process for doing projects in China."

"You still have to do a research fund project, and your research must meet the standards."

"The NS equation project is good."

"If it was a year ago, I definitely wouldn't recommend you to use this application, it definitely wouldn't be approved. But now it will definitely be approved!"

Zhang Shuo listened and nodded, "Then I'll get ready."

"Prepare well!"

Tan Youming immediately smiled with satisfaction. He patted Zhang Shuo on the shoulder and walked downstairs.

The Young Elite Scientists Program is not only about funding, but also an honor

When promoting their work, many schools and research institutes also mention that a professor in their institute has applied for the Excellent Young Scholars or Young Distinguished Young Scholars program.

Zhang Shuo thought about it and felt that it made sense.

He didn't feel anything before, and he could complete research tasks below level B very quickly by himself.

The two current tasks are both A-level, and each one needs time to settle. Even if you work very hard on research, the progress of the tasks will not grow very fast.

If there is enough funding, a team can be created and everyone can work together to study, and the research on the NS equation can also be accelerated.

He returned to the office thinking, and lay down to take a nap. He was woken up by the phone just as he closed his eyes.

The call came from the school’s publicity office.

The publicity staff asked, "There's a call from abroad, from the International Mathematical Union. Do you want to transfer it in?"

"it is good."

Zhang Shuo sat up.

It didn't take long for the call to be connected, and the person on the other end asked in English with a special accent, "Is this Professor Zhang Shuo?"

"Hello, I'm Zhang Shuo."

The other party continued, "Hello, I am Kei Nakajima, the president of the Mathematical Union. I am very happy to speak to you. On behalf of the Mathematical Union, I would like to invite you to attend the International Congress of Mathematicians to be held in Hanoi in August. The invitation letter has been sent to your email."

"Thank you. I will attend."

Zhang Shuo was stunned for a moment before he realized that the president of the Mathematics League called personally to invite him?
This is, won the award, right?
