Chapter 259: LHC Restart (Add. 13/32)

After reading the last document, Evans rubbed his temples and relaxed a little, then raised his head and looked at Lu Qiujian, "The plan that has been modified by you is indeed much better than the first one, but it is still a little earlier to say that you can definitely find the Higgs boson, right?"

"Why don't we make another bet?" Lu Qiujian's eyebrows raised slightly, revealing a mischievous smile, he was confident that he would win against Dr. Evans again.

"Haha, you're just looking like a young man at this time!" Dr. Evans laughed happily, all the members of the group who had been tossed around by Lu Qiujian during this time were exhausted, well, as if he were excepted, which reminded him of the strict laboratory director he had been at school, and now seeing the mischievous smile on his face, he realized that Lu Qiujian was still a teenager in his early twenties.

"Well, what do you want to bet on this time?" Although Dr. Evans was equally confident in the success of the experiment, he did not mind fulfilling his petty wish for the construction of the lower Ryuqiu.

"If the Higgs boson is really found in this experiment, then I want to use CERN's equipment to complete an experimental protocol that I have developed myself!" Lu Qiujian threw out his purpose, "Of course, I guarantee that the purpose of this experiment is also in CERN's work plan, but the method I take may be different!"

Dr. Evans frowned again, "Lu, you know, even if the Higgs boson is discovered in this experiment, the LHC will definitely continue to repeat the experiment to prove that this discovery is not an accident! I am afraid that you will not have time to complete other experiments in a short period of time! Besides, you are still a little too young to interfere with CERN's experimental plan."

Evans spread his hands, this is the treatment that only the top physicists like Higgs and Witten have! Lu Qiujian may be able to do this in ten or twenty years, but it is still a bit presumptuous to make such a request now.

"Of course, I understand!" Lu Qiujian nodded, he had already prepared for this, "During the period when the LHC repeats the test, I will do the pre-work of the experiment." Publish some theoretical articles first, and if the physics community reacts, I'll show you the experimental plan! If you and CERN both think the experiment is feasible, let's move on to the next step!"

"Okay then, but I still have to remind you that the probability of your success is very, very small!" Seeing that Lu Qiujian was so persistent, Evans couldn't refuse anymore, just think of him as a reserve for the future!

"Hehe, when I made a bet with you last time, did you also think that the probability of me winning the bet was very small?" Lu Qiujian responded with a smile, this time the result will be the same as last time!

"This is the first time I've expected the other person to win when I'm making a bet!" Evans responded with a pun. I don't know if he said that he hoped that the Higgs boson could really be discovered, or that he hoped that Lu Qiujian could realize his wish.

"Let's wait patiently!" Lu Qiujian responded in the same way!

The protocol was submitted to the committee, which quickly approved it and began to prepare for the next collision experiment, commissioning the machinery, seeking the cooperation of Switzerland and France, inviting experts from all over the world to assist, and preparing the relevant materials.

Other departments were responsible for finding international cooperation and inviting personnel from other institutions, and Evans, along with Lu Qiujian, led a large experimental team to check the maintenance of the LHC.

Riding a cute car in a 27-kilometer-long underground tunnel, carefully inspecting the past to see if the detectors such as ATLAS and CMS are in the best condition, mobilizing enough liquid nitrogen to cool down the low-temperature superconductor, Lu Qiujian's energetic advantages are fully revealed in his busy work.

He worked seventeen or eighteen hours a day, but he did not show a trace of fatigue, which made the CERN staff envious; even Evans and Higgs and others could not stand it anymore and kept urging him to pay attention to his body; Professor Schiff heard that he had made a special trip from Germany.

However, the results of the physical examination showed that everything was normal. Lu Qiujian's body is healthier than all the staff of CERN! They have nothing to say but to blame Lu Qiujian's talent.

What they didn't know was that Lu Qiujian didn't rest for long after returning to the room, and after squinting in bed for a while, he got up and turned on the computer, and while scrolling through arXiv, he thought about the theoretical article he had said to Dr. Evans.

Just when the framework of the paper tends to be perfected. Preparations for the second test are nearing completion, and the world's high-energy physicists and media are once again gathering in Geneva, only in a much smaller number than the last time.

First, people are not very confident that CERN will find the Higgs boson in the second experiment in a short period of time, and second, the main function of the LHC has been demonstrated in the last experiment, and they are not interested in doing it again unless they are sure that the Higgs boson can be found. If you have this time, you might as well do more work in your own lab.

On the media side, only specialized tech media and a few large general media outlets remained, and others lost interest in the area after discovering that the last experiment would not lead to the destruction of the planet.

All in all, the LHC's second collision experiment was prepared without everyone favoring it. Like last time, Lu Qiujian accompanied Higgs and the others to the testing room, waiting for Evans to issue the order to start the experiment.

"The ATLAS lab team reports on readiness!"

"The ATLAS lab team is ready!"

"Roger!CMS experiment team report on readiness!"

"The CMS lab team is ready!"

"Roger!Alice's lab team reports on their readiness!"

"Alice's lab team is ready!"

Repeating the same process as the previous time, Dr. Evans gave the order to begin the test, under which two opposing beams of protons were launched into an accelerometer tube up to 27 kilometers long.

With each revolution, they gain more energy and increase their speed, eventually accelerating to 99.99999991% of the speed of light, at which the proton stream can circle the tube 11,245 times per second.

"The energy level is up to the experiment, ready to start colliding!" With this sound, two beams of protons collided in the pipe, and the observer recorded the moment they hit and generated a huge amount of data.

At the end of the experiment, Higgs's gaze involuntarily turned to Lu Qiujian, could he really fulfill his long-standing wish and that of the entire physics community as he predicted this time? )

PS: Woo woo woo,Recently, subscriptions, collections, recommendations and monthly passes have been dropping again.,Is it the reason for the holiday?
