Chapter 564: Exactly the Same (1/3)
Professor Kerry, who returned to the office, was lying on the chair with a comfortable face, he had nothing to do in the past few days, high-quality TaSe4 crystals were being prepared, according to the other party's schedule, TaSe4 crystals could be completed by noon tomorrow at the earliest.
Without TaSe4 crystals, there would be no next experiments, which is why Professor Kerry is so laid-back.
"Xu Mang..."
"Hehe..."
He still couldn't let go of what happened just now, so many scientists were scared half to death by a Chinese, and there was no way out, a group of timid cowards, they didn't believe that Xu Mang was so powerful.
Thinking of this,
Professor Kerry hurriedly corrected his attitude, clicked on his file, and began to check the experimental design, according to the theory, when TaSe4 cools below minus 11 degrees Celsius, it will become an insulator below minus 11 degrees Celsius, but based on the existence of a special structure, it has an shaft that can conduct current.
In other words, the TaSe4 crystal is insulated, because when it comes into contact with parallel electric and magnetic fields, the shaft will increase the magnetic conductivity of the crystal.
After carefully checking it several times and carefully calculating it, Professor Kerry did not find any problems, and only then did he completely feel relieved and let out a long breath.
Bang bang bang!
suddenly
There was a knock on the office door, and Professor Kerry called out to please come in.
A middle-aged man, Toms, also an expert in particle physics, walked in, and he had a very good relationship with Professor Kerry, and the two hardly talked about anything.
"Professor Toms?"
"I've rarely seen you lately, I thought you were back at the University of Manchester. Professor Kerry smiled and asked, "How's your research going? Have you made the latest breakthroughs? Seems to be in a good mood. ”
truly
At this time, Professor Thomas had a relaxed smile on his face, and it was obvious that there was no pressure on his face.
"Hmm!"
"Finally solved the problem of the spin of the particle. Thomas laughed, "Thanks to your timely help, otherwise... I don't know how stuck that research topic will go, I didn't expect that the spin of this particle would be so complicated!"
Professor Kerry nodded and said seriously, "These are small questions that don't need to be talked about. ”
Words fall,
The two chatted casually for a day about other things, all of which were interesting things that happened in this organization, but soon the topic of the two involved the shaft.
"I just ran into Watson. ”
"He told me to be careful of Xu Mang in Huaguo... I wondered..."Professor Kerry said helplessly, "Why do you keep telling me to be careful of him? I did rely on his discovery of Weyl semimetals and Weyl fermions to get a hint of inspiration, but... But that doesn't prove anything, does it?"
“...”
"Kerry... I think you'd better take Watson's word for it. Thomas said seriously: "Contempt often brings devastating blows, especially Xu Mang, who despises Huaguo... You're from Oxford University and you should know a lot about him. ”
After being reminded by his old friend, Kerry reluctantly said, "Don't get me wrong, I mean... There's no way he's working on the shaft, don't worry... When he discovered Weyl semimetals and Weyl fermions, if he were studying shafts, he would have found that there was a correlation between shafts and the two. ”
"When I saw Weyl fermions, I immediately thought of axles. Professor Kerry said, "If Xu Mang is really as powerful as you boast, he should make a relevant announcement now and tell the world that he has proved the shaft." ”
"And yet..."
"Apparently not. Professor Kerry continued: "On the contrary, I am about to finish my research work on axions, and when the time comes, this discovery that will change the field of high-energy particles will be announced by the whole world, not by Xu Mang, who is in China." ”
Thomas fell silent, and after carefully analyzing Professor Kerry's words, he found that there was some truth.
"Let's hope..."
"Where are you at this point?" asked Toms, curiously, "how long is it going to be done?" ”
"Hmm..."
"According to my estimates, if you calculate by the fastest time, probably... It takes three days. Professor Kerry said earnestly: "Anyway, forty-two years have been waiting, and it seems that there is no problem in waiting for three more days." ”
"Three days..."
This is a very short time compared to forty-two years. Professor Thomas nodded.
Then
There was another knock on the office door, and it was Professor Watson, whom he had just spoken, who had just been discussed.
"Huh?"
"Professor Thomas is there too?" Watson said with a smile, "Exactly... There is one thing that needs to be discussed with the two of you, I plan to study the three-particle experiment at room temperature in the future, are you interested in working together?"
Three particles...
As the name suggests, it is composed of three particles, and all three particles are charged particles, bound together by very weak bond energy, but at room temperature, the three particles are usually unstable, and the bonds between them are very weak, so that they will fall apart very quickly.
presently
Most studies on triparticles need to be done at ultra-cold temperatures, and even then... The short-lived nature of the three particles also makes it difficult for scientists around the world to control and study them.
"I don't have a problem!"
"Just give me three days. Professor Kerry said seriously: "I need to finish the study of the axon, and in three days I will be able to prove the existence of the axle." ”
Watson was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the time to be so fast, he originally thought it would take at least a month, but... But it's only three days, isn't it... Is the shaft really going to prove successful?
"Three days?"
"Are you sure you can prove it in three days?" asked Watson, surprised.
"How?"
"Surprised to hear this?" Professor Kerry smiled and said indifferently: "But that's the case, as long as I get the prepared high-quality one-dimensional crystal, I can complete the verification of the shaft, and I have tested the experimental scheme countless times without any problems!"
Watson laughed, "It seems... My worries are superfluous, three days... I think in three days, it is estimated that Xu Mang of Huaguo will not be able to do anything, Kerry... You're about to change the entire field of energetic particles, even astrophysics... Actually, I'm particularly concerned about the correlation between axions and dark matter, and I think... The approach of the Physical Society is a bit blind. ”
Regarding axions and dark matter,
In fact, many people still believe that axons are one of the hypothetical dark matter constituent particles in particle physics and astronomical models of the universe, and some cosmologists also believe that axions can explain a certain problem of the Big Bang.
The cold dark matter required for the flatness of space-time requires axions to fill it.
"This..."
"It's that group of astronomers. Professor Kerry said, "I'm responsible for... Prove the existence of the shaft. ”
afterwards
The three of them casually chatted about the three particles, the theoretical framework of how to explore at room temperature, and then the three of them realized... In fact, the difficulty of the three particles at room temperature is not ordinarily high, but it arouses the desire of the three of them to challenge.
Bang bang bang!
Just as the trio was about to delve into the charge, electron spin, and other properties of the three particles, there was a knock on the office door, which was very rapid unlike the rhythm of Toms and Watson's previous knocks.
"Please come in!" shouted Professor Kerry.
moment
A young man walked in, his expression frightened.
"Huh?"
"Brian?" Professor Kerry asked curiously, "What happened, look at your panicked face?"
"Teach..."
"Professor!"
"Oh no!" said the young man named Brian, panting, "Hua Guo... Over there... Composed... Xu Mang..."
“???”
“???”
“???”
What do you mean?
What Huaguo, what Xu Mang?
What's going on?
But soon Professor Kerry reacted that the members of the group were so panicked, and then mentioned Xu Mang... Don't... No way?
At this moment,
Professor Kerry thought of an answer that was very difficult for him to accept, Xu Mang... It is possible that Xu Mang was the first to prove the axle, of course... This is just a guess, and the young man in front of him needs to announce the answer.
"Xu... Xu Mang... An announcement was issued. Brian said, "He's proven the Axle!"
As soon as the voice fell,
There was silence in the office, as if the air had condensed.
No way?
This... Is this proven?
There was a slight fear in Professor Kerry's expression, he didn't believe what he was hearing, this... This has completely subverted his concept of cognition, and he swore that Xu Mang was not a threat to him.
Outcome...
Suddenly,
Xu Mang completed the proof of the shaft, which... Isn't that dreaming?
"This..."
"How is this possible?"
"I've never heard of Xu Mang researching the shaft!" Professor Kerry said with a resolute face, "I don't believe it!"
"Ahem..."
"Where did you get the news?" Watson asked Brian hurriedly.
Brian said to Watson, "Professor Watson... On the official website of Huaguo Fuda, relevant media have reported this announcement, and now go online to find news. ”
afterwards
With a hint of nervousness, Kerry turned on the phone and found news on the web about the verification of the shaft.
Time
Professor Kerry's world has become a little gray, looking at the contents above... The more I looked, the more I felt wonder and fear.
"This..."
"What's going on?" Professor Kerry said, pointing to the translated content on the screen, and said to Watson and Thomas in surprise, "One... It's exactly the same!
The same?
What is the same?
Just when Watson and Thomas were surprised, Professor Kerry continued: "From the theoretical concept to the experimental scheme, all the processes are almost the same, they are all TaSe4 crystals, they are all experiments below -11 degrees Celsius, they are all calculating charge density waves..."
At this point,
Professor Kerry had to think of a situation where his own research had been plagiarized.
"Damn it!"
"Damn Xu Mang!"
"This must be plagiarizing my research!" Professor Kerry shouted angrily, "otherwise why is there only an announcement? There is no relevant experimental data? Such an announcement can be written according to the theoretical framework!"
“...”
“...”
Hearing Professor Kerry's words, Watson and Toms were quite helpless, which was completely angry and unjustified accusations.
Plagiarism?
Who will plagiarize?
Security measures are very tight, including the highest level of protection for the Internet.
suddenly
There was another hurried knock at the door.
Coming in was another member of Kerry's group, despair written across his face.
"Professor!"
"The official website of Nature published Xu Mang's experimental report!"
