Chapter 545: M Theory ...... Live broadcast?
"Hello Professor Witten, Professor Zhou, Professor Siu, I'm Jeff Myers from Nature. Plus Professor Shen, can I take a group photo of the four of you?" Myers made an earnest request.
"Of course, why not. Shen Qi and the others gladly accepted, so the four of them took a group photo in the café.
Miles finished filming and said excitedly: "I've already thought of the draft for this paragraph, 'In this seemingly ordinary café, four mathematicians have teamed up to solve the millennial problem N-S equation'. ”
Next, Miles visited the Condensed Matter Physics Laboratory, and visited it at the door, but did not go in.
The level of secrecy in the condensed matter physics laboratory is very high, and Shen Qi stood at the door to introduce the laboratory, hoping that Miles would understand.
Miles expressed understanding, and then he went to the chemistry lab to get a closer look at various chemical instruments and medicines.
Shen Qi did not let Miles enter the condensed matter physics laboratory because the FASTER project team was doing experiments inside.
Myers is a journalist, but he is not an ordinary journalist, but a popular science reporter for the journal Nature.
If you let a senior foreign science journalist enter the key laboratory and observe the ongoing national key projects with your own eyes, Shen Qi will not take this risk.
The chemistry laboratory is different, there are only two people inside, Lao Yan is cleaning, and Cheng Haonan is checking the medicines.
Chemical instruments and medicines, Miles loves to shoot and shoot, anyway, what he photographed were conventional instruments and medicines.
After observing the workplace in the fields of mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., Myers' field interview is coming to an end.
Before the end, Miles asked Shen Qi to make a summary, and Shen Qi's summary will appear in the special issue of Nature after Miles's word processing.
Shen Qi opened his mouth and said: "First of all, we would like to thank the journal Nature for making a special report for our center, we used our collective wisdom to take the lead in finding the general solution of the N-S equation in the world; our condensed matter physics laboratory has continuously innovated and developed the world's advanced metal plastics and other pioneering condensed matter materials; our chemistry team has finally synthesized a new compound C01C-2 after thousands of experiments, which may have a certain positive effect in the treatment of type II diabetes." ”
"I accepted Nature's suggestion to do a special issue for our center, not to show how great our center is and how brilliant it has become. While we did make some progress, it was more of an invitation than a hard advertisement. ”
"I hope that with the help of the broad platform of Nature, more scholars who are interested in innovation can understand us, be familiar with us, and join us. Thank you. ”
Miles turned off the recorder and said sincerely: "Professor Shen, your summary is so good, I have nothing to revise, I will quote your summary in the original text, is it okay?"
"Yes. Shen Qi smiled.
"After this day of visits and visits, I have a deeper understanding of the brilliant achievements of your center in the past five years, and I believe that this will be a wonderful report. So, Professor Shen, looking to the future, can you tell us something that catches your eye?"
"Future-proof?"
"I remember you said in public last year that the unification of mathematics, the improvement of M-theory, and environmental protection will be the key directions for you and your team in the future. ”
"Well, I did say that. Shen Qi kept a faint smile and said: "The unification of mathematics is an extremely complex and huge project, I threw out this topic last year, you can't expect me to complete the unification of mathematics this year, right?
"So the Unification of Mathematics project has not yet achieved exciting phased research results?" Myers asked, who was actually very concerned about the three-century project that Shen Qi threw out last year.
N-S equations, new materials in condensed matter physics, and new compound C01C-2 have been published in various well-known academic journals or academic monographs, and Shen Qi has also made very detailed public reports. Even if Miles does not come to China for on-the-spot interviews, with his level of writing, he can still write a manuscript that is inseparable.
"It takes time, time. Shen Qi said slowly.
"Well, we will continue to monitor the latest research progress of Professor Shen. ”
"Let me tell you this, Mr. Myers, in fact, I have been collecting information on various aspects of mathematics for a long time, and the official project was established last year. I used to be young, passionate, and even fantasizing, and I used to think that integrating several sections such as number theory, algebraic geometry, and mathematical analysis to form a new theoretical system and solve all mathematical problems with a new paradigm is the unification of mathematics. Shen Qi sighed, as if he had encountered an obstacle that was difficult to overcome.
Miles: "Everyone has been young, and everyone has had dreams and fantasies. So Professor Shen, after you are hailed as the first mathematician of our time, do you have a new understanding of the unification of mathematics, or a new inspiration?"
"Recently, I feel that integrating several sections such as number theory, algebraic geometry, and mathematical analysis to form a new theoretical system and solve all mathematical problems with a new paradigm is only part of the unification of mathematics. Of course, there is also good news, our team of Professor Xu Yang of Yan University has joined this project, and the algebraic geometry section has achieved preliminary directional research results. Because this initial result is not yet mature, I can't give you too much information for the time being. "Shen Qi is over, I can't say more, this is a top secret.
"Oh well, I look forward to the day when you will be successful. Myers turned on the recorder again and asked, "Now that we have talked about the problem of the unification of mathematics, what about the other two issues of the century that benefit all mankind?"
Shen Qi: "Environmental protection is a bigger issue, and I won't talk about it for the time being. As for the perfection of Theory M, Mr. Myers, the timing of your visit this time is good, we have obtained substantial results in the study of the improvement of Theory M, according to the plan, in a few days we will hold a report meeting on Theory M in the academic lecture hall of Yan University, live broadcast. If you are interested, you can go to the site to have a look. ”
"M theory...... Why didn't you receive any official notice before?"Miles shook his body, this is a big event in the physics world!
Shen Qi: "I'll inform you now, is it official?"
"Of course!" (https:)
