Did the world end today?

Chapter 195 You are ascending to a higher dimension
Lin Xu opened his eyes from the bed.

Before entering the world of the bracelet, he was actually so sleepy that he could barely keep his eyes open.

But after exiting the world of the bracelet, he was so excited that he was trembling all over.

He kept taking deep breaths, barely managing to steady his trembling hands.

Then, he sat down at his desk and solemnly wrote a few lines in his notebook.

Piping effect: High-dimensional channels can be "widened" through special high-energy methods, but this widening may trigger a catastrophic chain reaction.

[Reverse penetration: New physical rules can penetrate into the real world from the other end of a channel, bringing breakthroughs to fundamental physics research]

[The vulnerability of the large filter: Under normal circumstances, the large filter cannot be breached unless a higher-dimensional channel exists.]

After writing the three messages, he seemed to have a sudden realization.

So, are these so-called high-dimensional channels actually generated naturally?
Or is it that it was indeed a natural phenomenon, but future humans took advantage of this accidental natural occurrence?
Doesn't that mean
In the future, will humanity have substantially broken through the limitations of time and space?
That’s right.

Otherwise, where would I have gotten my bracelet?

but.
Can such humans solve the problem of the apocalypse?
Lin Xu didn't know.

Even now, he still doesn't know what the apocalypse really is.

It's like an "infiltration" from a region of chaotic rules.

However, based on the current clues, such infiltration seems too violent.

Therefore, the end of the world may be...
Is it some kind of "high-dimensional tsunami"?
Just as Wang Yifan said, the world we live in is a pond, while the world of higher dimensions is an ocean.

If one day, a tsunami occurs in this sea.
The pond, of course, could not survive either.

But if that's the case, then resolving the apocalypse won't be so simple.

Alternatively, build a high enough wall to completely block out the tsunami.

Alternatively, the tsunami itself must be dealt with.
It seems unlikely from any angle.

Take a step, take a look.

In the world contained within those bracelets, they sacrificed everything just to uphold this world that still holds hope.

Even for their sake, I have no right to be pessimistic or stagnant!

Lin Xu's fighting spirit returned.

He quickly organized the clues at hand, paying particular attention to the changes in the "generation cross section" and "decay branching ratio" that occurred at the Higgs plant, and uploaded them to the coordination group's information sharing system.

He doesn't know if, or how long, this information will be shared with other physicists around the world.

But he knew that once this information was made public...
He didn't know if tsunamis in higher dimensions would occur, but tsunamis in the realm of human physics were destined to happen.
However, this might not be such a bad thing after all?
After all, according to Zhang Liming, physicists should be happy to see this happen.

Even putting everything else aside, at least we have another paper to pad out, right?
Lin Xu lay down on the bed with satisfaction.

He suddenly realized he hadn't showered yet, but he couldn't get up, so he just fell asleep.
The next day was the weekend, and Lin Xu didn't get up until almost 10 o'clock.

He didn't leave the room. Instead, he went to the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes before slipping on his slippers, drying his hair, and walking into the living room.

But the moment he looked up, he was completely dumbfounded.

The living room was packed with people.

Wang Yifan, Zhang Liming, Qin Feng, Chen Yixin
There were many more people he had met a few times or only seen in news reports.

The vast majority of these people are the country's top physicists.

They all had heavy dark circles under their eyes.

But everyone's face showed undisguised excitement.

The moment Lin Xu stepped out of the room, everyone stood up in unison.

"Forester!"

"Mr. Lin!"

"Comrade Lin Xu!"

Everyone greeted Lin Xu using their more familiar forms of address, and there was not a trace of contempt in their eyes when they looked at Lin Xu, not even a glance.

Instead, it is filled with the purest respect.

Lin Xu was somewhat bewildered.

He didn't know what to say or how to treat these people.

In the midst of this slightly awkward silence, Zhang Liming stepped in to break the deadlock.

"Lin, give us your story!"

He had a relaxed smile on his face, and Lin Xu finally snapped out of his daze the moment he saw him.

"Hello everyone, hello everyone -- please have a seat."

He greeted everyone like a host and invited them to sit down. Tea had been prepared in advance, so Lin Xu didn't have to worry about it.

After everyone had sat down, they suddenly realized that they hadn't saved a seat for Lin Xu.

In an instant, everyone stood up again and made Lin Xu sit on the sofa.

Lin Xu, sitting next to Wang Yifan, was still somewhat reserved, but it seemed that these people didn't intend to give him time to be reserved.

When Wang Yifan coughed to signal that everyone could speak, the noise instantly drowned out Lin Xu.

"Mr. Lin! Do you remember any more detailed information about the Higgs boson production cross-section?"

"Mr. Lin, are you sure you can detonate the higher-dimensional channel using a high-energy jet? Do we have any other simpler methods?"

"Mr. Lin! I'm here! Regarding the 'seawater' issue, do you have any other testing methods? For example, can we detect changes in the gravitational constant?"

"Comrade Lin Xu, Comrade Lin Xu"

Lin Xu felt as if he wasn't sitting in his own living room, but at the scene of a press conference.

Everyone present was like an enthusiastic reporter, eager to ask themselves questions, but they didn't know where to begin their answers.

It was at this moment that Wang Yifan spoke again.

"Don't panic!"

"one by one!"

"I'll call roll, you can ask them one by one!"

A hammer is fixed.

The order in the living room finally stabilized, and Lin Xu was finally able to think things through and answer the first question.

"Let me answer the question about the testing method first." "Right now, we only have one 250 GeV level particle accelerator at our disposal, and the significant results we can achieve are very limited."

"However, if we can get in again next time, we will try to mainly test the mass generation mechanism of the Standard Model and verify the coupling constant of the Higgs boson with different particles."

"We need the help of the experts on this point—we need to conduct multiple tests in reality, and if possible, test them under similar conditions."

"The second question is that we are not yet sure whether we can 'trigger' or create a 'piping effect' in a high-dimensional channel through other high-energy experiments."

"Theoretically speaking, the most important factor in creating a piping effect is not the total amount of energy, but the average energy level of the particles."

"From this perspective, it is difficult for us to induce a piping effect using a nuclear explosion—because the average energy of nuclear explosion particles is only at the MeV level, which is simply too low."

"But I think it's still worthwhile for us to conduct an experiment."

"There are two main approaches: one is to use nuclear explosions to drive particle accelerators, and the other is to refer to the Starfish 1 experiment in 1958."

"That experiment produced electrons at the level of 30 MeV, which proves that nuclear explosions can spontaneously generate high-energy particles. If we increase the yield, we might actually be able to create particles at the level of TeV."

As soon as Lin Xu finished speaking, the scholar who had raised the question immediately stood up.

"Understood, understood! Thank you, Engineer Lin! It's very clear!"

Lin Xu nodded slightly and said:

"Then, shall we move on to the next one?"

After a full six hours, the "living room meeting" finally came to an end.

Almost everyone left Lin Xu's house, except for Qin Feng and Zhang Liming.

Qin Feng naturally had to stay close to Lin Xu—especially before Qi Yuan passed his security training, he had to be by his side every day.

But Zhang Liming
Lin Xu always felt that he had something to say to him.

"what happened?"

Lin Xu asked, puzzled.

Zhang Liming didn't answer immediately, but patted the sofa and said:
"Come on, Engineer Lin, they've all left. Shall we sit down and chat for a bit?"

"no problem."

Lin Xu sat down next to Zhang Liming, who chuckled and said:

"You're so awesome."

"Just as Zhuge Liang debated with a group of Confucian scholars in ancient times, Lin Xuguang is spreading the great principles of physics today."

"Seriously, with so many big shots around, I'm starting to feel a bit intimidated. Aren't you worried at all?"

"Who says I'm not panicking?"

Lin Xu rolled his eyes.

"Even though I didn't stutter, my heart was pounding so hard it was almost beyond human limits, okay?"

Hahaha, you're too honest!

Zhang Liming laughed for a while, then said:

"Seriously, don't be so honest in the future. You should say 'This is nothing,' that's more classy."

"What's with the high-class image?"

Lin Xu shook his head and said:

"I just want to solve the problem."

"That's not contradictory."

Zhang Liming continued:
"Now that you've reached this position, you deserve respect, don't you?"

"That's only natural, and it is."

"and many more."

Lin Xu raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Liming.

"Stop talking nonsense, everyone has already shown me a lot of respect."

"I don't want to be like Zhou Yue."

"I just want to be a useful person."

After saying that, Zhang Liming fell silent.

He looked silently into Lin Xu's eyes, and after a long while, he suddenly spoke:
"Uphold the One Law and all evils will naturally disappear."

"Mr. Lin, I believe you."

"What the hell?"

Lin Xu looked at Zhang Liming with a puzzled expression, while the latter shook his head and continued:
"Mr. Lin, I have a question for you."

Do you know what the angular asymmetry in Higgs decay specifically refers to?

Lin Xu pondered for a moment and replied:

"It probably refers to the direction of motion of the Higgs decay products, such as the emission angle of photons, which are preferentially distributed relative to a certain reference axis, rather than being isotropic?"

"This property can be used to explore sources of disruption that the Standard Model did not predict, such as CP violation, which is a manifestation of CP symmetry breaking, in a moment."

Why are you asking this? Why didn't you ask it earlier?

Zhang Liming smiled and shook his head.

After a few seconds of pause, he asked again:
"Engineer Lin, have you forgotten?"

"You are a flight control engineer."

"Even if you stuffed ten thousand books of information into your brain, how could you possibly understand the significance of CP destruction in the exploration of 'new rules' in such a short time?!"

"You're a flight control engineer! You're not a physicist!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xu stared in disbelief.

Immediately afterward, the hairs on his body stood on end.

Zhang Liming, however, looked directly into Lin Xu's eyes and continued speaking.

他 说:

"Forest worker."

"You are ascending to a higher dimension!"
