Chapter 470: Testing Xu Mang (3/3, for the sake of perfection)

What the?

Engaged in physics?

But looking at the calculation process, it doesn't look like a person who is engaged in physics, but a person who is engaged in mathematics.

This is not an illusion between the two, although the mathematics of people who are engaged in physics is not bad, but compared with people who purely study mathematics, it is a world of difference, even if Einstein faced mathematics and faced his own gravitational field equations, he was powerless.

Seeing the confused expressions on the faces of the two, Matlie said indifferently, "You should be able to guess." ”

β€œ...”

β€œ...”

Should?

It seems that this person is near us.

Dean and Bill looked at each other, both knowing what the other was trying to say.

"Yes!"

"This person is Xu Mang!" Matley said seriously, "You can't imagine what I've seen before... I saw a beautiful performance, a waltz from the tip of the pen, it turned out that... Professor Xu calculates the problem like this. ”

This...

How her demeanor and words... A little scary!

"What do you think... How long does it take to confront this on your own?" asked Mattley.

"Three days!"

"It takes at least three days, but only if my math matches the problem. Dean's statement is very sincere, and he is not hiding anything, in short, with his current ability, he can't solve this equation.

"Bill?"

"What about you?"

"Me?" Bill pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said helplessly, "I guess not. ”

Get a reply,

Matlie's expression was still serious: "None of the three of us can solve this problem... However, from the moment Professor Xu got the pen and put it down, it only took him less than half an hour, about fifteen minutes to be exact. ”

β€œοΌŸοΌŸοΌŸβ€

β€œοΌŸοΌŸοΌŸβ€

Ten minutes?

The whole problem has been solved?

How is this possible, the light solves the dielectric washing of the medium and the frequency relationship of the incident electromagnetic wave, it takes three hours, which... That's fifteen minutes to solve?

And it's not just that.

This... It's too strong!

Dean and Bill knew that Xu Mang's math was very powerful, but it was so powerful that it was a bit too much, and it didn't make scientific sense at all.

"I have a way!"

"We took this question to the professors in the mathematics department and saw what the shortest amount of time they had. Dean laughed, "Trust me... It's definitely a fun game. ”

Followed by

Dean found two of his math friends, Henry and Joseph, who were both successful in the field of mathematics.

"It's... It's so complicated?"

When Henry, a professor of mathematics, got the problem, he said with a puzzled expression: "The solution of this equation... It's complicated, and it needs to be split at least four times, otherwise it won't be solved at all. ”

"Of course!"

"If it's easy, do you need to come here?" Dean laughed, "Hurry up." ”

"Forget it in the morning. ”

"It takes at least half a day. Professor Joseph said, "I'll give you the process before I get off work." ”

Quite a while?

It seems that the guess is quite accurate.

Dean shook his head and said indifferently, "No need... In fact, we asked the two of you to come here just to find out how much time it will take to solve this problem in the eyes of your professional mathematicians. ”

"Now..."

"We have a general understanding of the gap between the two sides. Dean said.

Gap?

What gap?

About the gap in math?

In the face of mathematics,

Henry and Joseph were very confident, and Joseph smiled: "Do you feel helpless, why is the gap so big? It's nothing... After all, our field is professional mathematics. ”

β€œ...”

β€œ...”

β€œ...”

If

In the past, he may have resigned himself to his fate, after all, he was not an opponent.

Now the three of them have the capital to fight back, and this capital comes from Xu Mang.

"What if I told you... There's a professor of theoretical physics who solved all the problems in just fifteen minutes, believe it or not?" Dean asked.

"Dean!"

"This joke is not funny!" said Henry solemnly, "there is no such person in the world, fifteen minutes... Could it be that he is a high-level extraterrestrial intelligent life form?"

"You're right!"

"This man is not human. Dean nodded: "Professor Xu Mangxu knows, right? Recently, in our school, he and Professor Will worked on gaseous ring carbon. ”

"Yes. ”

"You physical people. ”

As soon as the words fell,

Only then did Henry react and said in horror: "You... Are you saying this person is Professor Xu Mangxu?"

The three nodded.

"Impossible!"

"How can you be so proficient in mathematics if you are engaged in physics?" Joseph hurriedly retorted, "I don't believe it anyway." ”

In the face of such a stubborn two, the three physics professors decided to call the legendary Xu Mang out in a banquet, and then show his unparalleled mathematical talent in front of the two.

soon

The offer was accepted, roughly tomorrow evening.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Bill suddenly reacted and asked curiously, "Anyway, Professor Xu is looking for you specifically to help you solve the problem?"

"No, no, no. ”

"He came to see STM. Mattley said, "Then I gave him a brief explanation of how STM works. ”

β€œSTM...”

"Professor Xu is planning to experiment with STM?" Dean asked curiously, "Technically unlikely... It's hard to do. ”

truly

It is difficult to use STM to achieve this technology, it is not that no one has tried before, but they have failed, of course, there are successful cases, just extract the atoms alone, but what Xu Mang has to do is to arrange the carbon atoms, and then connect them alternately with single and triple bonds.

But

With the previous experience, Dean just said that it was unlikely, or there was a theoretical possibility, after all, the other party was Xu Mang.

...

At this point,

Henry and Joseph went back to the office and recounted the incident with the rest of their colleagues, and all they got was some ridicule, and fifteen minutes to solve the problem was a bit whimsical, although the problem was not very difficult, but the process was quite complicated.

Fifteen minutes?

No way.

"Henry?"

"I think you've been deceived by physics. A young man said, "It may have taken Xu Mang a few days to complete, but Dean told you that it was done in fifteen minutes, I think... It could be this situation. ”

soon

The vast majority of people agree with this point of view, although Xu Mang is very powerful, but he is definitely not so powerful.

Fifteen minutes,

Break down a long equation into four times, unravel them one by one, and then simplify the long equation according to the results of the four times to reach the final solution.

"The two of us have made an appointment with Dean and the others to invite Professor Xu to a private dinner tomorrow night, and Joseph and I will put Professor Xu's mathematical talents to the test!" Henry said, "Do you have any comments?" or provide some difficult questions. ”

"Yes, yes!"

"I just had a partial differential equation to be solved, and one of their physics astrophysis researchers, please ask me to solve the problem, or..."

Partial differential equation?

This one does!

subsequently

The group studied the partial differential equation problem for a while, and unanimously agreed to leave the problem to Xu Mang to solve, to see if he had a talent in mathematics that no one else could match, as Dean said.

"This question..."

"If I solve it, it will take at least a day!" Joseph said seriously, "I don't know how long Professor Xu will take." ”

"What if..."

Dean wasn't wrong, it would take half an hour. The mathematics professor who provided the problem smiled: "In half a day, he only used fifteen minutes, so a day is not half an hour." ”

Half-hour?

Hehe...

Hearing this time, everyone present laughed.

meanwhile

Xu was in the lab, discussing STM with Professor Will.

"This..."

"Lower the temperature to a few kilobytes, and then STM can manipulate the atoms precisely?" Professor Will said with a frown, a little incredulous, "It seems to carry some myths. ”

Xu Mang nodded and said seriously: "How do you know if you don't try?" I will conduct a special study according to the way STM works, combined with a temperature of a few K, and study the possible probabilities. ”

Although Professor Will didn't believe in this, Xu Mang gave the project a new rebirth.

"Need my help?"

"Yes!" Xu Mang said seriously: "I still don't understand STM. ”

afterwards

Xu and Will began to design the theory of STM manipulation of atoms, but Xu never imagined that it would be so difficult... It was unimaginable, and just how that temperature combined with the STM was already a headache for him.

ultimately

Xu Mang gave up the idea of joint development of theory and equipment structure, and directly chose the theory, whether it can be built or not, the engineer has the final say.

Theoretically, yes, anyway.

Following

Xu Mang was still calculating how many K to make the atoms and bonds in the molecule have a stabilizing effect, when the arrival of a person broke his next train of thought.

"Professor Xu?"

"Why are you the only one?" Dean smiled and came to the laboratory, and after seeing Xu Mang, he asked kindly, "What about Professor Will?"

"I've been teaching the students, are you?" Xu Mang looked at him curiously.

"I'm Dean. ”

"I'm in theoretical physics like you. Dean said, "Do you have time in the evening? We're going to invite you to a dinner party." ”

"Where?" Xu asked.

Dean hurriedly said, "McDonald Rudolph Resort!"

Belch?

Isn't this my home?

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment and nodded: "I'll stay in this hotel, let's contact when the time comes." ”

"Good!"

...

At half past four in the afternoon,

Dean and Bill went to the hotel in formal attire, and were led by the waiter to the table that belonged to them.

"Henry?"

"What kind of problem are you going to give Professor Xu?" Dean asked curiously.

"It was supposed to be a secret, but... You can't solve this partial differential equation either. Henry graciously took out a slip of paper with an extremely simple equation written on it, which did not look very long.

This...

This seems to be a question about astrophysics.

Hard!

Almost always such problems are solved by mathematicians, and based on previous experience, they take several days.

"Henry!"

"You're going too far!" Dean said helplessly, "This... It's cheating!"

"Test!"

"Of course it's a little harder. Henry smiled, "What's the matter?

Not to mention,

When Dean, Bill, and Mattley saw this question, they instantly lost confidence in Xu Mang, not because they didn't trust him, but because the other party was too cunning.
