Chapter 257: Decided!8Tev Energy Level
"I'm a little tired, go back and rest first!Come here and talk to a few of us old fellows if you have time!" After a long time, Higgs got up from his support for the table and walked slowly towards the door.
"I'll send you back!" Lu Qiujian stood up and prepared to hold Higgs's arm, what did he mean by this?
"No! I'm not that old!" Higgs waved his hand without looking back, then quickened his pace and disappeared into the exit.
"I'm not that old" 75-year-old Higgs saw that Lu Qiujian did not follow, leaning against the wall to rest for a while, and his heart was gloomy, although he did not want to admit it, but he was old after all! After walking a few steps briskly, he felt tired.
Yes, after all, he is already seventy-five years old! Even if he is now medically advanced and his body is still healthy, can he really wait for that day? Even if he can wait, what about Engler and Braut, who are older than him? Can they wait with him?
Braut, in particular, has suffered from a variety of ailments in his body, and perhaps one day this old friend will suddenly pass away and return to the arms of the Lord, should he leave with regrets?
Of course, Higgs's obsession did not come from the Nobel Prize in Physics, but more importantly, he could see the Higgs mechanism confirmed in his lifetime, so as to build a basic model of matter and interactions, and all this could only become a reality after the discovery of the Higgs boson.
Back in the room, lying on the bed, tossing and turning but unable to sleep, the person is old and his sleep is shallow, and he has something on his mind now, so he has been lying down for more than half an hour, and his eyes are still open.
Hey, let's just get up! Higgs seemed to have made up his mind, and he lifted the quilt and got up. I turned on the bedside lamp, picked up the phone from the pillow, flipped out a few numbers, and pressed the dial button after hesitating for a moment!
"François, have you slept yet...if you haven't, come to my room?... well, since Robert is with you, it would be better, you can come along...yes, there is something to discuss with you!" Hanging up, Higgs sat for a moment, put on his pajamas and walked to the kitchen. Engler and Braut's favorite snacks were revealed.
"Even though I know it's not good to eat at night, I can't help but see these cute little cookies!" Engler sat down at the coffee table as soon as he entered, pinched up a biscuit and tasted it.
While drinking tea and chatting, Engel noticed that his old friend seemed to be a little absent-minded, so he put down the teacup in his hand, "Peter, uh, do you have anything on your mind?"
Higgs closed his eyes and leaned back on the couch, his right hand gently patting his forehead. After a moment, he opened his eyes and seemed to have made up his mind, "François, Robert, about the next experiment." I have an idea."
The lights in Higgs's room remained on until the wee hours of the morning, and when Engler and Braut had left, he seemed to let go of his worries and lay down on the bed with a relaxed face. Soon it was a dream.
The next day, together with Engler and Braut, he knocked on the office of Rolf Hoyle, the director of CERN, and it was a long time before he came out.
He then visited the offices of representatives of core CERN member states such as Germany and France. After a long talk with them, they patiently listened to the suggestions of Higgs and others, and cautiously said that the matter was very important and needed to be discussed in a meeting.
Lynn Evans, Rolf Hoyle, Bob Jones and other senior CERN staff, as well as representatives of Member States at CERN, gathered in the room for a long and difficult discussion.
Three days later, the meeting finally came to a conclusion, of course, due to the time constraints, they could not continue to discuss this, even if the LHC did not have a test task, it also needed a large amount of money for maintenance, maintenance, repair and consolidation and other manpower work, in addition to machines, computers, experimental equipment, The cost of materials such as injectors, this big guy is like a greedy beast that does not stop devouring the money of the person for a moment, and the LHC has consumed $150 million in funds in the period before the first experiment begins, and no one knows how much money will be wasted if it drags on like this.
Dr. Lynn-Evans reconvened the main members of the experimental group, "The committee has already made a decision on the next experiment!" He paused and looked in the direction of Lu Qiujian.
Lu Qiujian's mentality began to accelerate, did Higgs's lobbying succeed or fail? Fortunately, Evans didn't make him wait too long, he knocked on the table and said, "The next experiment will increase the energy level to 8Tev! Now start changing the experiment plan based on this data!"
Great! Lu Qiujian couldn't help but clench his fists! The time it takes to make the experiment plan, the time it takes to complete the experimental preparation, the time it takes to conduct the experiment, and then the time it takes to analyze the data! All the time combined, if you are lucky, you may really be able to find the Higgs boson before the deadline for Nobel Prize nominations in physics!
Evans stopped several engineers who had previously adhered to a step-by-step plan with a stern look, and began to assign tasks, "Lu, you come to be my assistant, responsible for assisting me in formulating a new experimental plan, Lafayette, you are in charge of Miller, you go to assist Lafayette Gyllenhaal, you"
"Okay, let go of all disputes and opinions, and start working according to the current Juding!" After speaking, Evans announced the adjournment of the meeting and took Lu Qiujian into his office.
There was silence for a long time before Evans spoke, "Lu, because of this change, the committee, Mr. Higgs, and I have taken great risks, if anything happens to the LHC in the test, I'm afraid I'm going to leave here!"
"According to the design indicators of the LHC, the energy level of 8Tev is far from reaching its limit!" "This big guy was required to be able to withstand the collision of 13 or even 14Tev energy levels at the beginning of the design, "You should have more confidence in this baby that you have spent more than ten years building by yourself!"
"You're right! you're right!" said Evans, half answering, half muttering, repeating a few more times, as if he had let go of his worries and regained his fighting spirit, "then well! Let this miracle in the history of human science create a greater miracle for us!"
"It's an honor to participate in this great experiment!" Lu Qiujian stood up, "I am convinced of the success of this experiment!" )
