MTL - Into Unscientific-Chapter 428 Fairy Gathering (Part 2)
Chapter 428 Gathering of Immortals (Part 2)
Mentioned earlier.
These bigwigs who came to the scene today have high academic status, and most of them have given lectures such as English reports.
So these people around Xu Yun either simply speak English as their mother tongue, or they have strong English listening and speaking skills.
It's just that they didn't interrupt Xu Yun and the little old man rashly because of the consideration of politeness.
So after hearing that the other party claimed to have taken Xu Yun’s first time
唰—
Including Hou Xingyuan and the senior official from Sichuan and Chongqing.
Everyone was slightly taken aback, and quickly took a small step back after recovering.
The action of taking half a step back is serious.jpg.
On the contrary, among those reporters, quite a few showed anticipation for finding big news.
After all, despite the fact that Xu Yun has no professional titles or hats in the scientific research circle, the introductions to people in the industry are either students at HKUST, or academician Pan's lover.
But on the Internet outside the scientific circle.
With the end of the University of Science and Technology press conference, Xu Yun has gradually gained a certain popularity.
After all, the press conference held by the University of Science and Technology was too effective.
After the fact.
Someone with a heart even dug out a video of Xu Yun’s brief speech a few months ago, during the live broadcast of disinfecting cockroaches at the University of Science and Technology of China.
So much so that now there is a question [How strong is the actual ability of Xu Yun of the University of Science and Technology of China] [Whether Xu Yun of the University of Science and Technology of China, who has been splashed with dirty water by foreign forces, has the potential of a top scientist] [Xu Yun will still be a child after 40 years old] ?] [Is the University of Science and Technology making gods for the products of Huadun Biotech] and other topics.
So if you can really come up with a breaking news at this time
A certain reporter even thought of what Zhang Rui said when he released the report at the public opinion press conference.
really.
Xu Yun did not find female-specific strains in his sexual characteristics, but it cannot be denied that there are no other male strains in his body.
Regrettably.
The reporter hadn’t fully developed his mind, but the little old man took the initiative to refute the rumors with his next sentence:
"Student Xu Yun, I'm Morton L. Groby. I reviewed your first paper. Do you still have any impression?"
“.”
It was not only the reporters who were thrown back to reality by this sentence, but also Xu Yun himself.
I saw him blinking in confusion, and after a few seconds, a memory quietly emerged in his mind:
months ago.
After a detailed discussion with Tian Liangwei, Xu Yun submitted his paper on the fifth-generation imidacloprid to "NUCLEICACIDSRES".
At that time, the reviewer Tian Liangwei recommended to him was none other than Morton L. Grobe, a well-known biologist.
So he is indeed the first boss to review Xu Yun's thesis.
only
It's strange that Morton L. Groby said this?
Could it be that when a person arrives in Rongcheng, he will automatically be given the buff of the capital?
Looking at Xu Yun, he seemed to be a little dazed, and Lu Chaoyang couldn't help but lightly poked his heel with his toe.
Reminded by Lu Chaoyang, Xu Yun completely recovered.
He quickly grabbed Morton L. Groby's hand, shook it vigorously a few times, with a very sincere gesture:
"It turned out to be you, Mr. Morton. I have admired your name for a long time. I even printed out the paper on combination proteins that you published last March."
Xu Yun's enthusiasm is partly polite, but more of it is sincere.
Firstly, it is because Morton L. Groby is about the same age as Tian Liangwei. From the perspective of a junior, he must respect his seniors.
Second come.
It was because Morton L. Groby helped him a lot.
At the time of submission, Xu Yun was completely white, and even the Huadun Biology Department was not established.
Don't talk about international at that time.
Domestic academic circles do not have even the slightest reputation.
Morton L. Groby is willing to serve as a reviewer for him, which is of little help to the drafting and publishing of his paper.
What's more, the other party is now a top gene and protein expert, and has deep attainments in some fields that Tian Liangwei has not gone deep into, but Xu Yun needs.
So Xu Yun wanted to meet this master for a long time, but he just suffered from no chance.
all in all.
Although the process of first meeting today is a little bit subtle.
But after talking about it, there is still no problem.
After all, Xu Yun can walk upright and sit upright, and he can never bend.
Otherwise, he would forget it on the spot and stop making this oath.
It's a pity that Tian Liangwei is not in today's pick-up queue, otherwise it should save some effort.
Afterwards, Morton L. Groby enthusiastically introduced Lucas and Lars, who he met on the plane, to Xu Yun.
The former Xu Yun has heard the name but never met the real person, and immediately remembered the other party's background when they met:
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory CDF detector director, twice nominated for the Nobel Prize but twice encountered wall-ranking rivals well-known unlucky guy.
Not long ago, there was a hot search overseas because of the bear’s voice. If nothing else, it should have a certain common language with the cheerful little old man from the bear named Polyakov.
As for Lars
Xu Yun really didn't know each other.
However, during yesterday's live broadcast, he had seen Lars speak on stage, so he also knew that the other party was from CERN.
Then Xu Yun and Academician Pan sent Anton Salinger and Morton L. Groby to the bus to the city. Xu Yun sent a message to Tian Liangwei on WeChat and returned out of place.
At this time, ten hours have passed since the initial pick-up time.
Whether it was Hou Xingyuan or the high-ranking official from Sichuan, they were a little tired at this time, and they would yawn occasionally.
After all, for Lucas and others, it was 7 am in Europe when they left Paris.
At that time, Polyakov just arrived in Rongcheng.
It can be for Hou Xingyuan, or the local pick-up group.
Due to the time difference, they arrived at the departure hall at two or three o'clock in the afternoon.
In other words, the local time at this time is approaching midnight.
But Hou Xingyuan had no intention of handing over the scene to his deputy.
As if
There are still some important people who have not arrived.
So
Who is Hou Xingyuan waiting for?
Or is it a certain person, or two or three people?
Think here.
Xu Yun's curiosity overwhelmed his exhaustion, and he patiently waited with Lu Chaoyang.
About ten minutes passed.
Hou Xingyuan, who had been looking at his watch, suddenly stood up and walked quickly to the entrance of the passage.
ten minutes later.
When the time was half a minute away from zero.
At the special passageway, a little foreign old man who was supported by someone appeared.
This person's figure is the same as many big shots who came before, and he looks a little bloated.
The complexion is sallow, the thinning hair is all snow-white, and the forehead to the top of the forehead is smooth, like a smooth marinated egg.
However, the muscles on both sides of this person's face are very plump, drooping below the corners of the mouth, and the muscles tremble when they take a step.
Seeing this, Hou Xingyuan hurried into the special passage, came to the old man's side, and personally supported him.
Kacha Kacha—
at the same time.
The surrounding reporters also raised their cameras or video cameras, frantically recording.
Even some academicians are no exception.
Because the comer is worthy of this kind of formation.
Mentioned before.
Before today.
The highest-level physics conference held in China was the quantum anomalous Hall effect discovered by Academician Xue Qikun of Shuimu University in 2013.
In the case of previous Nobel prizes for both integer and fractional quantum Hall effects.
Perhaps many years later, the quantum anomalous Hall effect will also receive this honor.
Notice.
This is not YY, because there are many examples of the delayed release of the Nobel Prize.
Like that Eric Cornell who arrived not so long ago.
He made the Bose-Einstein condensate in 1995, but he didn't win it until 2001.
There is also the more well-known Grandma Tu.
Grandma Tu extracted artemisinin as early as 1972, but she did not win the Nobel Prize in Medicine until 2015, a full 43 years later.
And actually.
Grandma Tu is not the Nobel laureate with the longest interval between achievement and award.
In the history of the Nobel Prize, there was one person who waited for 49 years from the achievement to the final award.
He is the little old man being supported by Hou Xingyuan at this time—
Peter Higgs.
That is, the person who proposed the God particle Higgs boson.
That's right.
The results of the Higgs particle released at the 2012 CERN press conference verified the conjecture of Peter Higgs.
Many people may have been curious about a question when they were studying:
What would the universe be like if there were no mass?
Are you and I as light as ghosts?
The answer is not.
If mass does not exist.
Firstly, the masses of quarks, W bosons and Z bosons will all become zero.
Since only about 1% of the mass of composite particles like protons and neutrons is due to the quarks they contain, their properties change only slightly.
The masses of tauons and muons will also become zero, but they have nothing to do with real life.
Electronics are different.
The smaller the mass of the electron, the larger the size of the atom.
When the electron mass becomes zero.
Atoms of super large size will collide with each other and the whole atom will be broken up, and all atomic nuclei and electrons will mix together.
That is to say, atoms cannot exist alone, and there will be no water, air, and the world in which humans live, and everything will return to chaos.
Therefore, in our world, there must be a quality-giving mechanism.
But what does this mechanism look like?
The Standard Model of particle physics, the basis of our current view of the physical world, has not provided answers for a long time.
Until 1964.
Higgs appears.
He proposed the concept of the Higgs scalar field and established the Higgs mechanism by himself.
In the Higgs mechanism.
W bosons and Z bosons are relatively simple, and gain mass by applying the Higgs mechanism to the Higgs field.
Fermions obtain mass by applying the Higgs mechanism to the coupling between the Higgs field and the fermion field.
As for the particle that transfers mass, it is the Higgs boson.
The existence of this particle makes our world no longer chaotic, just like God in the West or Pan Gu in the East.
So it was named Zheng Zha particle again, wrong, God particle.
Unfortunately, like Hawking mentioned earlier.
When a theory has not been finally confirmed, no matter how beautiful and logical it is, it has no way to win the Nobel Prize.
Like Einstein, the reason for the award is not the theory of relativity, but the photoelectric effect.
How difficult is it to find the Higgs particle?
Give a data.
The Higgs boson only occurs about once in every billion proton collisions, and it is as short-lived as the beluga:
It decays again in less than a trillionth of a second.
So the Higgs cannot be measured or observed directly, it can only be traced through the decay products it leaves behind.
Unfortunately.
These consist of elementary particles, such as photon pairs, muons, or Z bosons, as countless other collision products decay
They will also release similar or identical traces.
So trying to find the Higgs particle is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
LHC has been in operation since 2008, and it was not until July 2012 that the trace of the Higgs particle was found.
This also pushed Higgs himself to the altar in one fell swoop.
Before the discovery of the Higgs particle, Higgs probably belonged to Landau's rank 3 physicists.
But after the discovery of the Higgs particle.
He went directly to over 1.5 gears, close to 1 gear.
If Landau's ranking is subdivided without authorization, Higgs can probably be around 1.2 to 1.3.
Even in the overall ranking of physicists in human history, Higgs can also rank in the top 50.
In today's physics world.
He is probably in the same class as Gell-Mann, who died in 19, and slightly inferior to Elder Yang, Glashaw who is in the ICU, and Weinberg, who died in 21.
to some extent.
Higgs is the same as Makelele as a ball blind detector.
In those so-called physical rankings, you can see him not necessarily accurate—because he may be ranked very high, or he may be very low.
But without the Higgs ranking, it must not be allowed.
Today Higgs is 94 years old. He just had heart bypass surgery last year, and his body has been recovering.
Xu Yun was really surprised that he was able to come to the scene in person.
But after thinking about it, this kind of behavior is reasonable.
After all, dark matter is the goal pursued by three generations of scientists
Higgs is afraid of death. Xu Yun, as a non-party, doesn't know and is not qualified to make guesses.
But sure.
If Higgs hadn't witnessed this press conference with his own eyes, even if Higgs died, he would definitely feel regretful.
Curiosity outweighs fear of death, so he's here.
Of course.
No matter how strong the thirst for knowledge is, Higgs' age is still there.
The long-distance flight of nearly ten hours made his spirit quite weak.
Therefore, except for the high-ranking Sichuan official who came forward to greet him, Higgs did not greet anyone, and was quickly taken away from the scene.
After Higgs leaves.
Hou Xingyuan returned to his original position again.
And maintained a standing posture, did not sit down.
Xu Yun noticed.
At this time, the latest flight on the flight information will land in 20 minutes.
Even if the luggage of the visitor does not need to be picked up by himself, it will take at least half an hour including the passing time.
That is to say
Being in the identity or contribution of the other party, Hou Xingyuan has to stand here for half an hour for nothing.
Take a look at the physics world today.
There are only three fingers in the world who enjoy this qualification.
Who could this be?
It took about twenty minutes.
When the time is close to midnight.
At the end of the special passage, there was a sound of wheels rolling.
Half a minute later.
A middle-aged man in his forties pushed a wheelchair and appeared at the special passage.
There was a little old man sitting on the wheelchair, with a square face, gray hair with a little black, and a few age spots on his face.
More critically.
This is a Chinese.
This is the first Chinese person to appear on the scene today.
At the moment of seeing this person.
Papapa—
Without any gesture, everyone clapped their hands.
There were even a few young people who shouted out the person's name excitedly:
"Old Yang!"
Note:
In order to avoid being forced to remind in advance, Mr. Yang is not the finale. He can only say that Mr. Yang is firmly in the top three nowadays, but it is a bit extreme to say that he is the first, and the next chapter will introduce it.
During the double period, ask for a monthly pass
Some students are worried that I won’t be able to attend full attendance this month. It’s like this. China Literature has just published a special period’s early leave request regulations. You can advance the leave slips for the next two months, so I still have full attendance this month.
Thanks for reading!
