"Li, I told you a long time ago that it's not enough to just write a thesis. You were personally involved in the academic debates and laboratory visits of Arthur Compton and William Duane, and even Mr. Sommerfeld was involved, and even Mr. Einstein and Mr. Bohr! This is the norm in American academia, where we spend far more time arguing than doing experiments and writing articles. ”

"The Wave of Matter was published in the spring of 1922, and the experiment on low-energy electrons was completed in the summer of 1922, but we find that the Wave of Matter has not attracted much attention since that year. I would even like someone to argue with us about matter waves and low-energy electron diffraction experiments, but there are none! ”

"In general, it is our publicity and promotion work that is not good enough, we can't just wait and do nothing, we should take the initiative. Li, you know, this APS annual meeting is a suitable opportunity, and we will jointly give lectures on matter waves, low-energy electron diffraction experiments, and high-energy electron diffraction experiments at this annual meeting. ”

Professor Woodgate came up with his idea.

Li Kangping couldn't agree more.

So the two divided the labor.

Kangping Li was in charge of the lecture on the theory of matter waves, and Professor Woodgate was in charge of the lecture on the low-energy/high-energy electron diffraction experiment.

It's not like calling someone to listen to a speech after a meeting.

Instead, you have to invite the audience now.

"The topic of the joint presentation by Professor Woodgate and Dr. Li should be 'Matter Ripple Low-Energy/High-Energy Electron Diffraction Experiments'. I will present this presentation topic to APS for them to schedule for the meeting. APS will be notifying some physicists to attend our keynote presentations, and we ourselves will have to get ahead of the curve. Lee, I have made a list of thirty American physicists, and I will write to twenty-one of them, and the remaining nine will be handed over to you. ”

"Okay, Professor, I'll do it right away."

Li Kangping walked to the apartment on Chenbian Street, and then wrote a letter.

The APS Annual Meeting process is for the organizing committee to first create a schedule of all academic keynote speeches/debates, which lists the speakers for each academic keynote speech/debate, as well as a brief overview of the academic topics.

For example, Professor Woodgate and Dr. Li jointly led the "Lecture on Matter Wave Low-Energy/High-energy Electron Diffraction Experiments", which was included in the agenda of the annual meeting by the APS organizing committee and invited some physicists from related majors to participate in this lecture.

Some of the 30 U.S. physicists targeted by Woodgate may have been notified by the APS Organizing Committee? Some may not be within the scope of the organizing committee's notice.

These physicists who are not within the scope of the notification of the organizing committee? They are also members of APS and also attend the Annual Meeting. These people were invited by Li Kangping and Woodgate to participate in the "Lecture on Matter Wave Low-energy/High-energy Electron Diffraction Experiments".

The 30 physicists currently teach at 20 universities and graduate schools in 13 states.

All in all? Write to them and you're done.

Arthur Compton? University of Chicago. Kevin Jefferson, University of Chicago. William Duane? Harvard University. Edwin Chemberg, Harvard University. David Nord? Worcester Polytechnic Institute ......

The nine physicists in charge of Li Kangping are mainly concentrated in Illinois and Massachusetts? Some of them were native-born physicists in the United States, and some were European immigrant physicists.

Wait, Ilambam Suguma-Singh, Berkeley.

Look at the name? Is this an Indian physicist?

Li Kangping called Professor Woodgate: "Professor? I have already started to write letters, and I know all eight physicists except Mr. Ilambam Suguma-Singh. ”

Professor Woodgate: "You don't have to know him personally, you just read his articles." ”

"I haven't read his article."

"Oh, is it? You haven't read his article? This Mr. Ilambam Suguma-Singh? He is a rising star in physics in the West. ”

"He's Indian?"

"Lee, what do you think of the Indians?"

"Not really."

"Right? I am writing to Mr. Ilambam Suguma-Singh, and you are in charge of the other eight physicists. ”

"Okay? Good bye. ”

Nowadays, some Indian scholars are extremely active internationally? For example, Rabindranath Tagore, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

The most active Indian physicist in the international physics community is Raman? This person has become famous? He has published a number of high-quality physics papers in prestigious journals such as Nature, and is currently Professor of Physics at the University of Calcutta and a Fellow of the Royal Society.

Now, there is a rising star in physics in the American West, Ilambam Suguma-Singh.

From a new star to a big star, there is actually a long way to go.

Many new stars in the history of physics have fallen to the dust before they even shine in the starry sky.

Arthur Compton was both a friend of Lee Kangping and a friend of Professor Woodgate.

Li Kangping wrote a letter to Compton first to ventilate in advance.

Just after writing a few sentences, Jennifer called, saying that there was an important business in the company that needed the president's approval.

Li Kangping writes essays, textbooks, or drafts academic letters with more rigorous wording and sentence formation, and such academic work is usually carried out in the dead of night.

During the day, Li Kangping inevitably has to deal with some company affairs.

Li Kangping came to the headquarters of Zeus Company in Manhattan, handled the company's business, and continued to write letters.

Influential journals such as Physical Review, Nature, and Annals of Physics are all subscribed to by Zeus in Manhattan, and these journals are regularly sent to the company's headquarters.

During Li Kangping's business trip to California, the editorial office of Physical Review published an issue of Physical Review, which Li Kangping had not had time to read. Now, he flips through this issue of Physical Review.

Berkeley's Ilambam Suguma-Singh published a paper on quantum theory in this issue of Physical Review, and it was written in a fair and flawed manner.

But Li Kangping felt that it was too early to be called a "rising star of western physics" based on a paper that seemed so-so.

It took him a few days to write eight letters and send them to physicists in Illinois and Massachusetts.

Liu Shaowen and his team returned to New York from Florida.

"What's going on in Florida?" Li Kangping asked with concern.

Liu Shaowen and Will took turns to state the information they learned during their research in Florida.

Go to Florida, where there is the golden luan of entrepreneurs, and sit in the dusk and watch the palm fronds sway.

Leaving spots on the horizon kissed red by the sun, the sun, moon and stars shine together in the twilight, building the vast universe of the moment of colorful.

The breeze from the Caribbean Sea whispers, the whispers of Mom's lullaby, the silver moon is the earrings of the sky, and the moonlight is shrouded in beaded curtains that go straight to the earth.

Ah, this is Florida, home!

"So Florida is beautiful?"

"Mr. Li, please look at the picture."

Will unfolds a huge map, which is the map of Miami.

Miami Land Plan, to be exact.

In the picture, Miami is divided into squares, rectangles, and polygons by horizontal and vertical lines.
