Chapter 435

The Institute of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Cambridge was established to allow experts in the fields of mathematics and physics to devote themselves to scientific research for a period of time in addition to their busy teaching tasks.

Most of the members in the institute are responsible for key projects of the Yingguo Teaching Fund, general projects, youth science funds and other scientific research projects.

In the past few decades, countless scientific researchers have done good work during their tenure, received support from various institutes of mathematics and physics, organized various forms of international and domestic academic seminars, invited famous mathematicians and physicists at home and abroad to give lectures, and held academic frontier lectures.

It can be said that 80 of the 100 academic papers published by the University of Cambridge on mathematics and physics will come from the Institute of Mathematics and Physics of the University of Cambridge.

Unlike the small research office that Cheng Nuo spent at MIT, which was only supported by Professor Fresnel, the Institute of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Cambridge was the result of the joint efforts of more than 100 researchers from all over the institute to accumulate such a transcendent status.

Last year alone, the Institute of Mathematics and Physics completed more than 30 first-level scientific research projects under the Royal Academy of Sciences of Yingguo.

The research group sent by Director Alding to Cheng Nuo is one of the 100 first-level scientific research projects in the whole discipline issued by the Royal Academy of Sciences at the beginning of this year.

The Institute of Mathematics and Physics has only four floors, except for the fourth floor, which is used for office purposes, and the other three floors are all large and small laboratories.

Unlike mathematics, which only needs to write and calculate in a notebook, most physics research needs experimental data as support, so most of the laboratories on the three floors are physics laboratories.

Although Alding is a member of the Department of Mathematics, since he became the director, he has not suppressed the forces of the Department of Physics, but has used eighty percent of the annual funds to invest in various physics research projects.

Compared to mathematics, the investment in physics research is terrifying.

To do a math project, all you need is a simple pen and paper, and at most a computer.

Physics can be different. If you want to do a project, you have to do experiments, and if you need to do experiments, you need to buy equipment.

An experimental equipment may be cheaper than hundreds of thousands of pounds, but it can be expensive in the hundreds of thousands of pounds, and the research fund granted by the Royal Academy of Sciences alone is completely insufficient, and the institute itself does not need to pay for it.

If you add that the experiment fails, it will be even more of a blood loss!

Now there is a physics project in the institute that is stuck in the research progress, and a person from the mathematics department needs to come and help. There were no idlers available under Olding, so he let Cheng Nuo, who had just joined the company, stay on top for a while.

Alding called Professor Clay and asked him to take Cheng Nuo to the physics research group to report.

Professor Clay took Cheng Nuo to Laboratory 203 on the second floor.

The door sign reads "Electrokinetic Laboratory".

Clay pushed the door open and walked in.

The area of the electrokinetic laboratory is not large, about 100 square meters. After all, it is only a marginal discipline between fluid mechanics and electrodynamics, and it does not require super-large experimental equipment.

At this time, two professors were doing experiments in the laboratory.

Two people in white lab coats stood in front of the tempered glass of the vacuum chamber, one operating the instrument and the other recording data.

In the vacuum chamber, the capillary nozzle will heat the molten Bi~Zn alloy, and after the cathode and anode flashlights adjust the intermediate spacing, they will release a super voltage, and Cheng Nuo can see the jumping electric spark.

At the push of a button on the instrument, a researcher drives a crucible nozzle to eject a stream of liquid, and the dispersed droplets are cooled as they descend and fall into the chassis of the cold trap.

The chassis was removed from the vacuum chamber by a robotic arm, and another researcher took a sample and looked at it under an electron microscope for a while, then shook his head gently at the other person.

"Failed again. There was helplessness in his tone.

Cheng Nuo and Professor Clay stood aside and watched all this silently.

It wasn't until the two researchers turned around after the experiment that they saw the two people standing in the laboratory for a long time.

"Still failed?" Professor Clay asked the two of them, frowning.

The eldest of the two researchers smiled wryly, "Yes, we have revised more than 50 sets of data, but we still can't get the ultra-nano powder that meets the regulations." ”

"Do you know why?"

"We guessed that there was something wrong with the calculation of the data, so we asked the director for a mathematician to come and help us. How's that, when did the director say the person will arrive?"

Professor Clay glanced at Cheng Nuo behind him, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I have already brought you people." ”

"Where are you?" the researcher was stunned for a moment, then looked at Cheng Nuo standing behind Professor Clay, and his heart suddenly froze.

He smiled dryly, "Mr. Clay, you can't be talking about the one standing behind you. ”

Clay gave the researcher an appreciative look, "That's right, this one is the researcher that the teacher just recruited at a great cost, Cheng Nuo!"

The two looked at the young and excessive Cheng Nuo, glanced at each other, and both shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

Professor Clay dragged Cheng Nuo in front of him and introduced, "These two are Professor Alec Barnard and Professor Max Garrison, both of whom have been well-known physicists in the physics field for many years, and experts in the field of mechanics. ”

"Hello both. Cheng Nuo opened his mouth with a smile.

Professor Clay explained to the two professors, "Don't be fooled by Cheng Nuo's appearance, although he is still only a student, his level of mathematics is enough to solve the problems you are currently experiencing. It took a lot of effort for the teacher to get him to agree to come and help. ”

What, still a student?!

The two professors are too lazy to complain.

That's because they've experimented too many times and spent a lot of resources, so they've given up on them completely.

"Thank you for your kindness. The two said with pale faces.

"I won't stay any longer, the three of you talk, and try to finish the project as soon as possible. With that, Clay hurried away.

Only Cheng Nuo and the two professors were left in the laboratory.

"Hmph!" the older researcher snorted coldly, turned his head away from Cheng Nuo, and walked to his desk to look at a large pile of experimental data in a daze.

The other researcher didn't speak to Cheng Nuo, and walked up to the instrument and frowned, wondering what was wrong.

Cheng Nuo didn't bother to speak, he was called over to help, not isolated.

Pulling over a chair casually, Cheng Nuo crossed Erlang's legs and played with his mobile phone leisurely.

A few minutes later, the older researcher glanced at Cheng Nuo, who was playing a small game with his mobile phone, and after a few seconds of struggle, he was the first to break the silence, "Who's that, come over and help look at some of these data." ”
