From all-round academic master to chief scientist - Chapter 199 I succeeded

Scientific research is not achieved overnight, even if Lin Xiao has such confidence in himself.

Of course, it is definitely not a lie for him to have such confidence.

Because he already has a more essential way of dealing with these ‘noisy’ chaotic systems.

Whether it is radio electromagnetic waves or environmental thermal radiation, these are all electromagnetic waves, while the earth’s magnetic field is an influence on the magnetic field, and then there are the impurity particles inside. The vacuum in the LHC is an ultra-high vacuum, with a pressure of only 10 minus seven. Pascal, this pressure is about 100 times lower than that of the moon. It can be called the emptiest place in the solar system. However, it is obvious that there are still impurities here, and based on this pressure, the density of gas present inside can be estimated. Then the density of impurity molecules is calculated.

The same goes for everything else.

And they have one thing in common, that is, they ultimately affect the space where particles collide.

With this relationship, Lin Xiao can put them all into one system, and finally use a mathematical method to analyze and process them.

“So, what mathematical method should be chosen to deal with them?”

Lin Xiao raised his brows slightly and recalled in his mind the methods in chaotic system theory, unimodal image iterative system? Doofen vibrator? Roselat attractor?

Finally, he frowned slightly: “None of the current chaos theory methods can solve my problem.”

But this problem didn’t bother him.

If there is no tool, then create a tool. Once this tool is created, he will be able to catch all these kinds of ‘noise’.

“Go on, it looks like there will be another period of struggle.”

With a slight sigh, he took out his pen and entered the immersive state again. In his silent mind, ‘particles’ representing inspiration gradually began to collide and burst out.

In the cat’s nest next to it, Mimi looked at the owner who lowered his head again. She let out a ‘meow’ and lay down in the nest again, quietly looking at the owner’s face.

Then it looked away again, stretched itself out, and finally fell asleep again.

The kitten doesn’t have to go to work, it doesn’t care about so much, just enjoy its own life.

As long as the owner doesn’t carry it around with him.

…

Chaos theory is an equally difficult direction in mathematics. Because its rise occurred in the late 20th century, there are relatively few famous people who have made achievements in it compared to other theories.

Of course, there are quite a few people who choose this direction, because this theory is widely used in applied fields, so much so that to some extent, it, quantum mechanics and relativity are called the three major scientific revolutions of the 20th century.

The butterfly effect, which is so famous that even elementary school students know it, also comes from the theory of confusion.

Because the butterfly effect describes the sensitivity of a chaotic system to initial conditions, how to reduce the sensitivity of this initial condition is also a major direction of Lin Xiao’s research.

In this way, two months passed quietly.

…

“How long has it been since we last saw Mr. Lin?”

In a certain research laboratory at CERN, nine members of the “Lin Group” stayed in the room chatting in various ways, not knowing what to do.

They haven’t seen Lin Xiao for a long time, especially since two months ago, Lin Xiao has basically not appeared in front of everyone. At most, he explained the next task more than a month ago, and then he Once disappeared.

Of course, disappearing doesn’t mean that he really disappeared, it just means that he has been staying in his room, studying something unknown.

But these are not the focus. The focus is on the tasks he assigned more than a month ago. The research team had completed them a week ago.

In other words, there has been no progress in the W boson mass measurement project for a week. Now hundreds of people seem to be on vacation and don’t know what to do.

Including nine of them.

“Elizabeth, aren’t you responsible for delivering meals to Mr. Lin every day? Do you know what he is studying?”

At this time, Sterling looked at Elizabeth Marcia next to him and asked.

Elizabeth was holding her head with one hand and looking down at some paper. When she heard Sterling suddenly ask herself, she came back to her senses and said helplessly: “I don’t know, it’s all related to mathematics. I looked at it a few times, but I didn’t understand what it was.”

“All right.”

Sterling shook his head helplessly.

Another girl walked up to Elizabeth again, winked at her, and asked, “Elizabeth, you have been delivering meals to Mr. Lin for so long, haven’t you had anything happen to him?”

Elizabeth was stunned, then blushed and said, “Alyssa! Don’t talk nonsense! I’m just… delivering food to him!”

“Hahaha, Miss Marcia, you don’t even believe what you say, do you?”

Another boy also teased.

“That’s right! Elizabeth, as long as you have the opportunity to get close to Mr. Lin, you never give up!”

“Elizabeth, don’t be shy!”

…

In the room, a group of people teased Elizabeth.

Elizabeth’s face became even redder. At first, she thought that no one noticed it, but now it turns out that the clown is actually herself?

“I didn’t!”

She defended loudly, then lay on the table and buried her hot face in her arms.

Everyone present laughed, and the room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Sterling also smiled, but as the oldest and most stable person present, he stopped quickly, and then asked: “Okay, Elizabeth, don’t be shy, but you didn’t ask Mr. Lin What are we going to do next? If he doesn’t arrange it, those professors may be angry.”

When Elizabeth was about to reply, their door was suddenly knocked open.

“We’re already angry.”

Several people walked in from outside the door. They were all researchers in the project team, and they basically all had professorships.

After walking in, the professor who spoke before continued: “Where is Lin Xiao? We have been idle for a week! Didn’t he say it would be completed before the Solvay Conference?”

Another professor also asked: “We all expected him to lead us to success, but we didn’t see him yet? If he doesn’t hear back, I will take my students back to Zurich.” Got it!”

Several other professors also expressed their opinions that they were likely to leave the project team without seeing Lin Xiao.

Seeing these professors who were sacred cows at CERN come to their door, especially one professor named Byron Winston, who was famous for his bad temper, Sterling and the others couldn’t help but feel nervous. Get numb.

“Professors, please be patient. Mr. Lin’s work is definitely the core of our project. You also know that Mr. Lin wants to solve the problem of radio electromagnetic wave noise…”

Professor Winston, who was notoriously bad-tempered, interrupted him and said impatiently: “Don’t say that there are some or not, I only know that we people have not seen Lin for almost two months. , he is the general person in charge of our project, we want to see him! At least we need to know his progress! Our time is precious!”

Faced with Professor Winston’s behavior, Sterling had no choice but to say: “Okay, I’ll call Mr. Lin now, but I can’t guarantee whether he will get through.”

Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed Lin Xiao’s number.

Sometimes when you call Lin Xiao, you find that you can’t get through. It’s probably because Lin Xiao has entered a learning state. They basically all know this.

Based on the time, Lin Xiao would not have answered the phone at this time in the past.

But Byron Winston didn’t pay attention and snorted: “If you don’t get through, go directly to his house to find him.”

Sterling shrugged, but at this moment, the call actually went through!

“Hello? Sterling, what’s the matter?”

Sterling was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t expect that the call was actually connected. Then he quickly said: “Mr. Lin, it’s like this…”

After he told Professor Winston and the others about their intention to come, he apologized: “Sorry, Mr. Lin, Professor Winston and the others are a little anxious, so I have no choice but to make this call to you. I don’t know if I’m bothering you.” to your research.”

“Haha, it turns out that’s what happened. It’s okay.”

Lin Xiao was not angry, and said with a smile: “Let’s have a meeting tomorrow and inform the others. If there are no problems, I think we are very close to the final goal.”

Hearing Lin Xiao’s words, Sterling’s eyes widened immediately, “You mean…you succeeded?!”

“Basically, it’s like this. At least I now judge it theoretically to be successful. After the meeting tomorrow, we will use the computer to simulate it, and we can really confirm it.”

Sterling suddenly showed an extremely excited expression, “Okay! I’ll arrange a meeting for tomorrow right away!”

“Well, I’ll excuse you, I have to take a good rest.”

Lin Xiao smiled and said, he was already quite tired when he said the last sentence. Obviously, he was very tired.

“My pleasure, sir, just rest!” Sterling responded immediately.

Then, the phone hung up.

Sterling put down his cell phone, unable to contain the excitement on his face. What he just said made a dozen people around him stare at his face with searching expressions.

Professor Winston was impatient and immediately grabbed Sterling’s arm and asked: “Lin…succeeded?”

Sterling smiled and nodded. Just now when facing Professor Winston, he was a little worried about being scolded, but now, he straightened his back and said to Winston: “Mr. Lin said this, He will hold a meeting tomorrow, probably to introduce his method to everyone, so Professor Winston, you don’t have to worry, let’s wait until tomorrow.”

After getting an exact time, Winston was no longer anxious and said, “Okay, then I’ll look forward to tomorrow.”

“Let’s go.”

Seeing Winston and several other professors leaving, the nine young people finally felt relieved.

“Professor Winston is indeed as scary as the legend says.”

“It is indeed the case.”

But Sterling smiled and said, “But at least our Mr. Lin helped us drive away Professor Winston.”

Everyone laughed.

God knows what Winston would have said if the call couldn’t be reached just now. It was just like those stress monsters when playing games.

“Okay, everyone, let’s get ready and inform each team. Maybe tomorrow we will be able to witness the birth of a great theory?”

“OK.”

…

Soon, the news spread.

For the hundreds of people on the W boson mass measurement project team, they have been looking forward to this news for a long time.

Why they are willing to join Lin Xiao’s team is precisely because of Lin Xiao’s reputation in academia. He seems to have the power to turn corruption into magic, allowing any problem that seems to be a dead end to be easily solved, especially His multidimensional field theory.

Over the past few months, the physics community has theoretically explained countless “dark clouds” in the physics sky of the new century through research on multi-dimensional field theory.

For example, the timing protection conjecture has been perfectly explained by the multi-dimensional field theory. Another example is the black hole information paradox, which has also been explained by the multi-dimensional field theory.

Of course, multidimensional field theory is not omnipotent, and it still has some problems that cannot be solved. But for now, for the building of physics, multidimensional field theory has risen from the ground, and a new building has been gradually built, and It has been favored by all scholars.

Including the recent papers in “Nature” and “Science” magazines, almost all physics papers are related to multi-dimensional field theory. They are basically the results derived based on multi-dimensional field theory, and readers like these brand-new ones. theory.

Readers are God, so these two major magazines are more willing to accept submissions in this area. This has led many researchers in other disciplines to decide to temporarily avoid this “multidimensional field theory craze” and wait until later to submit articles. , to avoid them, even if he submitted the manuscript, he could not submit it.

The cause of all this is naturally Lin Xiao, the proposer and founder of multi-dimensional field theory, so now he has a very high charm in the physics community.

For everyone in the project team, most of them joined this research because of this charm. They all believed that Lin Xiao could completely lead them to success again, even if he said that he wanted to eliminate radio electromagnetic waves. impact on their experiments.

Looking at it now, Lin Xiao has lived up to their expectations and announced that he was successful. Therefore, hundreds of high-energy physics experts working at CERN are also looking forward to tomorrow’s meeting.

Of course, it was not just those who participated in Lin Xiao’s project team. After receiving the news, people from other project teams were also ready to participate in tomorrow’s meeting.

As long as he can really solve the noise impact of radio electromagnetic waves, it is equivalent to more than 30,000 particle accelerators in the world. Even if some of them are removed that are not used for scientific research, such as medical accelerators, the remaining accelerators are You can refer to his methods to optimize experimental data and conduct experiments better.

Therefore, it can be said that Lin Xiao’s method will benefit basic scientific research of mankind, which is equivalent to benefiting mankind.

Therefore, everyone wants to know what this method looks like.

…

The next day arrived as expected.

2 p.m.

CERN, main auditorium.

The main auditorium is not large, and can only accommodate more than two hundred people if they are seated normally.

However, more than 300 people crowded into the main auditorium today.

The seats for more than 200 people obviously cannot accommodate so many people, so many people are sitting in the aisle or standing at the very back, and they are basically middle-aged or old faces. As for young faces, there are very few. And the young faces who can sit here are basically the more capable ones.

As for the intern researchers, basically they couldn’t get in. They had no choice but to give up their seats to the formal researchers.

Of course, in order to meet the majority of viewing needs, this meeting was also arranged to be broadcast live, so that those who could not come in could also see the details of the meeting.

However, as relevant news spread, more high-energy physics scholars in the world paid attention to this conference, so more and more people entered the live broadcast room, including some mathematicians who heard that this was Lin Xiao live broadcast, he also ran in to join in the fun.

So unknowingly, more than 4,000 people entered the live broadcast room, all real people from all over the world, from China to Europe to the Americas.

At this moment, Lin Xiao was standing in the main auditorium, adjusting the computer. He did not realize that there would be so many people paying attention. This kind of number of people was no less than those of the previous meetings he held. .

Of course, he didn’t have time to pay so much attention.

With the debugging completed, he looked at his watch and saw that it was already time for the official meeting.

Then he raised his head, faced everyone present, smiled slightly, and said: “Hello everyone, I really didn’t expect that it would attract the attention of so many friends. It is really an honor for me.”

“Of course, without further ado, I will introduce my research results in the past two months to my project team members and friends who came here specially.”

“In our high-energy physics research, there is always some complicated noise, which seriously affects our data processing and gives us headaches. It is these ‘culprits’ that always cause errors in our results.”

“But now, I am 99% sure that it can help us solve these noises.”

“Then, let’s start from now on.”

“First of all, please let me introduce a concept that everyone should be familiar with-chaos theory.”
