Chapter 294: I've Disappointed You Again
"This is my analysis of the filamentous motion of this galaxy cluster!" Professor Dietrich took out a large stack of data and presented it to Lu Qiujian, "If you bring your model in, some parts of the inference will be even more perfect!"
"I've been thinking about expanding this model recently. Lu Qiujian took the information and said while flipping through it, Professor Dietrich's observation of this phenomenon provides conclusive evidence for the existence of dark matter, although we do not know what dark matter is, it should indeed be one of the factors in the composition of the universe.
Inferring the unknown from the known is an important method of scientific exploration, and Lu Qiujian now intends to see his dark matter model as a known situation, and then infer more unknowns.
"I'm putting the finishing touches on it, and I'll send it out when it's done!" Professor Dietrich said, "and it just so happens that you can check the article for me to see if there are any loopholes?"
"It's a great honor!" Lu Qiujian nodded and replied, Professor Dietrich's discovery is undoubtedly quite important, once published, it will definitely lead to the upsurge of dark matter research in the scientific community, so it will also be quite beneficial to promote CERN to change the experimental plan, maybe he can start the experiment earlier!
Hmm, Professor Dietrich didn't bother anymore when he saw that Lu Qiujian had begun to study his article carefully, rubbed his hands and moved to the front of the big photo, and continued to look at the various stars dotted on the photo.
Two hours later, Lu Qiujian finally finished reading Professor Dietrich's materials, and after closing them and considering them, he shouted, "Professor Dietrich!"
"Hmm, what's the problem?" he asked reluctantly as he looked away from the wall and returned to his desk.
It's really a good body, I didn't feel tired after standing for two hours, Lu Qiujian secretly sighed, "Very good article, detailed evidence, rigorous logical reasoning." It is a landmark discovery in the history of dark matter research!"
"Yes, thanks to the big guy at the observatory!" Professor Dietrich excitedly pointed to the telescope facing space outside the window, "the school has always said that too much money has been spent on it, but with this result, I'm afraid they will never say such things again!"
"They will also provide additional funds to upgrade your lab's equipment, hoping that you can make greater achievements!" Lu Qiujian expanded along his topic, and in terms of funding, the funding provider is quite like those venture capital firms in Silicon Valley, and the first payment is always the most difficult. But as long as the team that receives the investment shows its potential, the follow-up money will continue to come until the final breakthrough or complete failure.
"Yes, just the right telescope, a higher-performance computer," Professor Dietrich said after a series of reports of many of the equipment he wanted, and finally shook his head regretfully, "It's a pity that the University of Munich is only a university, and it is far from being comparable to NASA." ”
"The world's largest single-aperture radio telescope FAST project in China is nearing completion, and it is said that it will enter the final site selection review stage in the near future. It is estimated that it will not be long before this large-scale project with an investment of nearly 100 million euros will be launched! If you are interested, you might as well go to Huaguo to have a look! Lu Qiujian helped his country recruit talents by the way, and this project has been prepared for ten years since the project construction plan was proposed, and now it is about to enter the actual construction stage. Scientists in China plan to build a radio telescope with a diameter of 500 meters, which they believe will be attractive to astronomers like Professor Dietrich.
"Of course I know about this project!" there was a hint of jealousy in his eyes, "I have already signed up!", but there are so many people who have signed up, I don't know when I will have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes!"
"Haha. There are still many years left before it is completed, so you can wait patiently. I believe that your status in the international astronomical community will be different at that time!" After talking for a long time, Lu Qiujian finally said his opinion on this article, "There is basically no problem with your article. It's just that there are a few places where the algorithm used is not very appropriate, and the conclusions reached are slightly different from the actual situation, I have marked it next to it, I hope you don't care!"
"Hmm, I'll see where they are?" Professor Dietrich took the article and hurriedly flipped through it, and after a while, he found the location marked by Lu Qiujian, and he immediately indulged in it, muttering to himself while doing calculations in the blank space next to the article, trying to compare the new algorithm given by Lu Qiujian with the algorithm he used.
Lu Qiujian quietly walked to the side, sat on the sofa and looked at the large and small cosmic photos stacked on the coffee table, waiting for Professor Dietrich's calculation results.
"It's really better!" Professor Dietrich finally raised his head after waiting for a long time, mathematics is the foundation of all natural sciences, and the method given by such a powerful mathematician as Lu Qiujian is naturally much better than the one he used before; he was a little reluctant to accept the kindness of others for no reason, and after pondering for a while, he asked tentatively, "Well, how about I put you on the list of second authors when I post this article?"
"Thank you very much for your kindness, but I have only done some trivial work, so I don't need to do this!" Whether it is "Physical Review Letters" or "Nature" and "Science", a second author is no longer the slightest attraction for Lu Qiujian, "but it would be nice if you could mention a reminder of dark matter-related experiments after the publication of the article!"
This article is bound to have a huge impact on the physics community, and combined with my previous article on dark matter models, the joint efforts of both parties may have an unexpected effect on pushing CERN to change the experimental plan.
Professor Dietrich readily agreed, and Lu Qiujian returned to Professor Schiff's laboratory with satisfaction, and continued to guide another Mr. Dietrich and others in their work.
After a little more than a week, Lu Qiujian is back at Bayern Munich's training base, the team has just finished two away games, and he may be playing again this weekend.
Hey, why are their faces a little embarrassed? And they are all as spiritless as eggplants that have been beaten by frost? And seeing that their eyes are a little evasive, Lu Qiujian stepped on the training ground with suspicion.
I saw Kahn walking to Lu Qiujian's side with his head drooping, "Lu, I'm sorry to disappoint you again, we lost to Liverpool again in the last Champions League game!" )
