"All particle detectors have their own principles, and I am the one who chooses them at the moment......"

"In that case, I know what I want......"

Chen Zhou looked through the stack of deconstructed scratch papers, carefully selecting the content he needed.

On the new scratch paper, I put it into practice according to my own ideas.

Yang Yiyi, who originally noticed that Chen Zhou stopped writing, thought that this guy was finally going out to forage for food.

Unexpectedly, without asking for a minute, Chen Zhou threw himself into his own world again.

Shaking her head helplessly, Yang Yiyi had to get up by herself and go to prepare today's lunch for this person who stayed at home.

However, as the time came to the end of December, coupled with Chen Zhou's intensive retreat research.

Yang Yiyi was very curious about the progress of Chen Zhou's research and what kind of results he could achieve.

At present, Yang Yiyi only knew that Chen Zhou was conducting research on the topic of rubber ball experiments, and did not disturb him to inquire about the research.

When Yang Yiyi went out quietly, Chen Zhou just stopped writing, and there were words in his mouth.

It's not that he found Yang Yiyi going out.

It's just that the refill in my hand is finished, and I have to replace it with a new one.

And what Chen Zhou said in his mouth was nothing else, exactly: ", delay things, delay things......"

He replaced a blood-soaked refill, and with a twist of the cap, it fell on the scratch paper again.

In fact, to detect rubber balls, on the one hand, it is necessary to have a more in-depth study of its properties theoretically, so as to avoid blindly searching for a needle in a haystack in experiments.

On the other hand, there is a need for innovation in experimental methods and means.

In contrast, the theoretical content has actually been well developed.

Regarding the theoretical content of the rubber ball experiment, Chen Zhou has already completed it.

It is different from the conventional quantum number rubber balls, which were more selected in the past, to conduct experiments and probe.

Chen Zhou chose the content of the peculiar quantum number rubber ball.

From in-depth theoretical research, Chen Zhou found that the peculiar quantum number rubber ball is likely to be a key to open the "rubber ball door".

Therefore, in the process of theoretical research, under the guidance of the direction of the wrong problem set.

In the shortest possible time, Chen Zhou studied the theoretical mass, generation and decay properties of the peculiar quantum number rubber ball.

As for the theoretical research content of this peculiar quantum number rubber ball, it is absolutely accurate.

But the content of the experiment is not necessarily.

The most intuitive manifestation of this is gravitational waves.

Gravitational waves are the existence predicted by Albert Einstein in 1916 based on the general theory of relativity.

But Albert Einstein once thought that gravitational waves were unlikely to be detected.

It also turned out that it was not until nearly a hundred years later, with the continuous development of experimental technology, that LIGO finally detected the existence of gravitational waves.

Therefore, from this point of view, the experimental content in the rubber ball experiment topic should be more precise, the experimental technique.

There has to be innovation.

And this is also directly reflected in the particle detector.

That is, the last step that Chen Zhou is now complete.

Because theoretical research intuitively shows that with the existing collider technology, it is fully capable of reaching the level of energy that can be generated by the rubber ball.

It's just that the existing experimental detection technology can't accurately detect the rubber ball.

This is also the reason why Chen Zhou believes that this is the biggest difficulty in the rubber ball experiment.

However, the difficulty is identified in order to solve the difficulty.

Coupled with Yang Yiyi's unintentional words as an outsider, Chen Zhou had that hint of inspiration.

This makes it possible to solve this difficulty.

With the swaying of pen and ink, time flies between the fingers.

In the blink of an eye, 2016 came to the last hour of the last day.

Chen Zhou is still sitting at his desk, writing hard.

In the day and a half after the particle detector was deconstructed.

On Chen Zhou's desk, there was a lot of scratch paper that had been filled.

In a day and a half, he finally grasped the inspiration that had only been possible just a few days ago.

He is about to turn that possibility into a certainty!

In order to explore the secrets inside the atomic nucleus, scientists always want to open the nucleus to see what is going on.

So try to accelerate some charged particles, and use these accelerated high-speed particles to bombard a stationary "target".

Then study the momentum, direction, charge, quantity, and so on and so forth of the secondary particles produced.

Such a device is an accelerator.

If you want to pull one electron out of the outermost shell of an atom, only a few electron volts of energy are generally sufficient.

If you want to split the nucleus, you need more than a few million electron volts.

If you want to study the structure and internal laws of protons and neutrons, you need billions, tens of billions of electron volts.

And at such high energy, the number of particles produced in the collider is a terrifying order of magnitude.

And here, how to detect the rubber ball is the job of the particle detector.

That is the affirmation that Chen Zhou is about to get!

The time was finally fixed at 11:57:58 on the evening of December 31, 2016.

Chen Zhou slowly put down the pen in his hand.

Looking at the content of the scratch paper in front of him, he showed a smug look.

Let's just say that I won't take this thing with me for New Year's Eve, right?

Won't it be a while before 2017?

Stretching comfortably, Chen Zhou closed the set of mistakes in front of him from thin to thick and then to thin.

This artifact can take a break for a while.

Afterwards, Chen Zhou took a comfortable bath, lay down on the bed, and slept beautifully.

As soon as the problem of the particle detector is solved, the problem of the entire rubber ball experiment will be solved.

As for the final research results converted into papers, there is no need to be as urgent as before.

This sleep is the longest and most reassuring sleep for Chen Zhou in so many days.

It's like a few days ago, I slept very little, and I couldn't sleep at ease.

On the first day of New Year's Day in 2017, Chen Zhou woke up as usual.

That's right, Chen Zhou, who originally thought that he would sleep until at least three o'clock in the morning before waking up, was looking at the "6:41" displayed on his mobile phone in surprise.

Turn off the display of the mobile phone, lie down on the bed again, and prepare for Chen Zhou, who has a second sleep.

But he was even more surprised to find that he couldn't sleep.

Silently muttered in his heart: "The problem of rubber balls has been solved, I'm not very excited, why can't I sleep?"

Inadvertently, glancing at the scratch paper on the desk, Chen Zhou subconsciously showed a smug smile.

After thinking about it, since I can't sleep, let's get up.

I haven't run in the morning for so many days, and after washing, I just went to call for Yiyichen to run.

Chen Zhou, who had made up his mind, turned over and got out of bed.

While getting dressed, I walked to my desk.

Lehehe, dressing up, looking at the scratch paper on the desk.

I thought that if I took some time today, I would be able to put the first draft of my paper together.

I can also give a surprise to Professor Cross, who has been complaining about himself, and Professor Friedman, who has been teaching free-range to himself.

After cleaning himself up, Chen Zhou hummed a song quietly and came to the door of Yang Yiyi's dormitory.

Reaching out, he knocked rhythmically on the door of the dormitory.

Hearing the knock on the door, Yang Yiyi, who opened the door, was obviously stunned.

Immediately, she realized something, and a surprised expression suddenly appeared on her face: "Happy, you...... You've got the task done?"

Chen Zhou smiled and nodded: "It's almost, the results have come out." ”

Yang Yiyi asked again: "Then is your research result ......?"

Although Yang Yiyi didn't finish speaking, Chen Zhou understood what the other party meant.

He immediately said proudly: "If nothing else, there shouldn't be much of a problem." ”

Yang Yiyi looked at Chen Zhou's stinky fart, but smiled even more happily.

She saw with her own eyes what kind of energy Chen Zhou had spent on this topic in the past few days.

And now, Chen Zhou has finally obtained the research results he wants.

Nothing, there is nothing more enjoyable than trying so hard to achieve results.

Seeing that Yang Yiyi was still standing in place, Chen Zhou looked up and down again, and said with a smile: "Why are you still stunned? Run!"

"Oh......" Yang Yiyi reacted and immediately responded, "Okay!"

on the playground.

Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi ran side by side.

However, there was an unexpected figure that appeared on the playground.

It seems that she had expected this, Yang Yiyi deliberately said: "Go, after Christmas, this senior sister has been coming for a morning jog, and just to wait for you to ......"

Listening to Yang Yiyi's delicious voice, Chen Zhou suddenly smiled and said, "Yiyi, I'm not familiar with her." ”

It's just that before Chen Zhou's words fell, Noether had already taken the initiative to walk towards them.

"Chen Zhou, Yang Yiyi, good morning!"

In the face of this active greeting, Chen Zhou responded slowly after Yang Yiyi responded "Good morning": "Morning!"

Immediately, he and Yang Yiyi prepared to run away from Nott.

Who knows, Noether seemed to respond to Yang Yiyi's sentence "just to wait for you" and followed Chen Zhou directly.

Chen Zhou frowned slightly, isn't this okay?

When my object is not there, you follow it, and I ignore you.

But my object is here, and you're still like this, isn't that finding fault?

However, without waiting for Chen Zhou to speak, Noether took the initiative to ask: "Chen Zhou, I heard that you have been studying the topic of physics these days?"

Chen Zhou was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at Yang Yiyi.

Yang Yiyi also glanced at him.

Chen Zhou retracted his gaze and said to Knott instead: "It's a topic of physics, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Noether frowned slightly.

Looking at Chen Zhou's eyes, it also became strange.

After all, people's energy is limited, and the time period when people's thinking is most agile is even more limited.

In the limited energy, strive to make outstanding achievements in the field that you are familiar with, or in the field of your own talents, which is what you should strive to grasp in life.

How can you waste your time in other areas that you don't know or even show your talents?

Knott didn't understand why Chen Zhou was so keen on the research of physics.

Why can you give up even the morning run that you have been insisting on for a short time?

Just to study physics without leaving home?

Although her great-grandmother, that algebraic queen Emile Knot.

Not only in the field of mathematics, but also in the field of outstanding achievements.

In the field of physics, it has also left a remarkable legacy.

The "Noether's theorem" proposed by her is one of the central results of theoretical physics.

On this basis, the fundamental theorems such as linear conservation of energy and conservation of energy were born.

To this day, her research results are still used in the study of black holes.

Moreover, she gave Einstein's general theory of relativity a rigorous method of pure mathematics.

But all of this is based on mathematical formulas.

Her great-grandmother never felt that she had ever set foot in the field of physics, and she thought that all she had been doing was mathematical research.

In other words, even a great mathematician like her great-grandmother would only devote himself to research in a field he was familiar with.

And the achievements in the field of physics are nothing but unintentional.

And Chen Zhou?

She doesn't think Chen Zhou is a great person who can juggle both mathematics and physics.

In order to bring Chen Zhou back to the "right path", and for the glory of mathematics that he was calculating, Noether looked at Chen Zhou and said, "Can I delay you for two minutes?"

Chen Zhou looked at the senior sister in front of him inexplicably, and then turned his head to look at Yang Yiyi beside him.

Yang Yiyi gave him an affirmative look, and took the initiative to accelerate and open the distance.

After thinking about it, Chen Zhou slowly stopped, turning from running to walking.

Seeing this, Noether took the initiative to say, "Thank you for giving me two minutes." ”

Chen Zhou frowned slightly: "What do you want to say?"

When Noether heard this, he said directly: "Do you have any research results on the topic of 'linear representation of the Artin L-function of the Galois group'?"

Chen Zhou shook his head: "Not yet." ”

Noether said "sure enough", and said to Chen Zhou: "Then why did you turn to the study of physics instead of continuing to study this sub-topic of Professor Artin? And your Goldbach conjecture is not studying ......?"

Chen Zhou glanced at this senior sister a little strangely, how could he know so much about himself?

Immediately, he thought of something, and it was estimated that it was Yang Yiyi's reason.

However, what do you study by yourself, it doesn't seem to have much to do with this senior sister, right?

Chen Zhou replied as politely as possible: "The physics topic is an experimental topic that I followed my supervisor, Professor Friedman, and I did not suddenly transfer to research. ”

"As for the topic of 'linear representation of the Artin L-function of the Galois group,' the results of the study will be available soon. ”

"Even what you said about Goldbach's conjecture, I haven't stopped researching it. ”

After speaking, Chen Zhou was ready to leave.

He still thought that something was wrong with the other party, and that was it?

Knott obviously did not give up so easily: "However, you must know that people's energy is limited, and during the most active time of thinking, you should strive to grasp the field you are familiar with and strive to create brilliant achievements......"

"And I believe that your research in physics must not be as handy as mathematics, after all, the field of mathematics and the field of physics ......."

Noether said a lot and said it sincerely.

Chen Zhou, who also said it, was a little embarrassed.

However, in the face of the other party's kind admonition, Chen Zhou could only choose to euphemistically say that he knew.

As for the last resort......

That, of course, is impossible to change.

His path was predestined a long time ago.

From the moment he changed himself, it was already doomed.

At the same time, Chen Zhou probably knew why Knott said so much.

From her recounting her insistence on her morning run, from her accusation of canceling her morning jog, from what she said was brilliant in mathematics......

Chen Zhou was very helpless when he heard it.

This senior sister actually pinned her hopes on him.

But he had no reason to help her.

"The cancellation of the morning run was because I studied the habits and nothing else. Chen Zhou thought about it and explained.

After explaining, he paused for a moment and added, "You should focus on math research instead of focusing on me." Also, for me, physics and mathematics are the same. ”

Nott wondered, "The same?"

Chen Zhou explained: "The reason why I started my morning run again today is because this topic of physics has been completed by me. ”

"What, done?" said Noether.

Chen Zhou nodded: "Yes." ”

After saying this, Chen Zhou stopped staying, returned to the runway again, and followed Yang Yiyi's footsteps.

In the same place, only the stunned Nott was left.

Even though she has not studied physics, she has heard of the name of the rubber ball.

What does Chen Zhou's sentence "finished" mean?

Did he find the glue ball?

How is this possible!

This is a Nobel Prize-level discovery in physics!

This is the glue ball that the physics community all over the world is looking for!

This is a particle that so many physics experts have not found!

Knott really couldn't believe Chen Zhou's words.

She didn't think that this mathematical genius had such an amazing talent in the field of physics.

If that's the case, what about her mathematical glory?

Noether hesitated to return to the rhythm of his morning run.

She planned to go back immediately after her morning run to check how difficult it was to experiment with rubber balls......

Chen Zhou, who didn't know the changes in Nott's heart, soon caught up with Yang Yiyi.

Glancing at Yang Yiyi, who was running with a bored head, Chen Zhou poured out the conversation with Nott just now.

Seeing this, Yang Yiyi smiled slightly, and said, "Why are you telling me? I don't want to know ......."

Chen Zhou glanced at Yang Yiyi, who was smiling, and thought to himself, "Hmph, do you want to know?"

After the morning run, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi finished breakfast and went straight back to the dormitory.

After the retreat, Chen Zhou, who sat at his desk again, looked at the results of this delightful study, and felt that everything was worth it.

After sorting out the scratch paper, Chen Zhou began to edit the first draft of the paper.

Although Yang Yiyi had also suggested to Chen Zhou before, asking him to write the research content in a notebook, it was not easy to organize and not easy to mess up.

And she thinks that Chen Zhou's book of wrong questions is very good, and plans to buy a few more wrong books for Chen Zhou.

But Chen Zhou said very decisively that he was used to A4 scratch paper, and this scratch paper could bring him inspiration.

Yang Yiyi didn't say anything more.

After a busy day, Chen Zhou completed the first draft of the paper on the rubber ball experiment topic.

Subsequently, the first draft of the paper was sent to Professors Cross and Friedman.

It was very easy for Chen Zhou to send the first draft to the pre-print website e-Print arXiv.

Although some of the experimental data is based on the collider in the SLAC laboratory.

However, the content of this research paper has little to do with the SLAC laboratory.

Therefore, Chen Zhou will make his own decisions and upload the preprint directly.

He believed that even if Professor Friedman knew, not only would he not say anything, but he would be even more eager to arrange the next rubber ball experiment.

Cross, on his part, had just had a nice night with his family and was about to go to bed.

Unexpectedly, I saw a notification that there was a new email in my mailbox.

Confused, he turned on his computer and logged into his mailbox.

I wonder who would send me an email so late, if there was something going on at SLAC.

He saw the name of the sender.

After being stunned for three seconds, Cross quickly clicked on the attachment in the email and began to download the file.

The file is not large, and it was downloaded quickly.

This was a surprise to Cross.

He originally thought that Chen Zhou, this kid, had no sound for so long, and now he took the initiative to send an email to himself, he must have something to help with.

Since it's help, then this information will definitely not be less.

But I didn't expect this file to be so small?

With doubts, he opened the document sent by Chen Zhou.

After just one glance, Cross's mouth grew in surprise.
