Eighty-nine, and travel far away with wind and thunder

Chapter 89 of the Reborn Great Scientist traveled far away with wind and thunder

If you were to name the famous international science awards, there would probably be many of them depending on the profession: the Nobel Prize, the Fields Medal, the Wolf Prize, the Kyoto Prize, the Shaw Prize, the Graff Prize, and even the Lasker Prize, which was recently won by Tu Youyou, China's outstanding female scientist

But if it is a world-famous science and technology award, then the Nobel Prize, which has a history of more than 100 years, is definitely not a second person!

What the? Fields Medal? Classmate, you are studying mathematics!

A scientist winning a Nobel Prize is already a lucky cow among cattle: not only does it have to be outstanding, but your country is also pleasing to the eyes of the Swedes, and you have to live long enough.

Got it twice? Wow! Not only do you need to be good enough and lucky, but you also need to have all the good scientific qualities and dexterous communication skills! You know, even the famous Comrade Albert Einstein has only won it once. In the history of more than 100 years, only four people have won the award twice. The four people are:

Polish-French physicist and chemist Marie. Curie, commonly known as Marie Curie, was awarded the IT Yanker for her "discovery of radium, the sexual element of radium". Professor Johnson,

It is my great pleasure to inform you that you have been awarded the BSP by the Council of the Royal Society for elucidating the principle of the photoelectric effect and for discovering that light has wave-particle duality; According to the results of the Royal Society David Award Selection Committee, you were awarded the BSP for your outstanding contribution to the principles of chemical reactions; The award ceremony will be held at gH this year, so we look forward to welcoming you on time.

President of the Royal Society, William. Sincerely, Sir Hagen

"Copley Prize! The David Award? Sun Yuanqi, who is confident that he still has a little understanding of the scientific community, seems to have never heard of these two awards in the world. But just because Sun Yuanqi hasn't heard of it doesn't mean that others haven't heard of it. Hearing Sun Yuanqi's muttering, the colleagues around him immediately cheered loudly:

"Wow! It's a Copley Prize! “

"And the Davy Award!"

"Quick! Fast! Hurry up and find champagne! “

At this moment, Sun Yuanqi realized that he was really a little white. grabbed someone next to him casually and asked in a low voice, "What are these two awards?" ”

Someone seemed happy to answer this question for Sun Yuanqi, gushing out: "Let's talk about the David Award first. He is known as the father of inorganic chemistry, Humphrey. Named after Davy, it was established by the Royal Society to recognise scientists who have made outstanding and important new discoveries in any branch of chemistry. Since bsp; Is it the highest honor in chemistry? Isn't the highest honor in chemistry the Nobel Prize in Chemistry? Sun Yuanqi began to feel ashamed of his ignorance.

In fact, the Davy Prize is indeed a banner in the field of chemistry, and many of the winners are famous figures, such as Mendeleev, such as the two Nobel laureates mentioned above, Marie Curie and Pauling. In addition to this, there are dozens of Nobel Prize winners. In the first 40 years of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, more than half of the winners had won the David Prize!

The man continued: "If the David Prize is confined to chemistry, then the Copley Prize is the most honorable Nobel Prize for all scientific achievements!" The Copley Medal is one of the oldest science awards in the world! It was established by the bequest of Sir Godrey Copley, a Senior Member of the Royal Society, in BSp; Sun Yuanqi hurriedly thanked him for his praise.

Earlier than the Nobel Prize; Since there was such a temporary incident, Sun Yuanqi's plan to return to China naturally came to naught. Only let Vera and the others go back first, go to the UK by themselves, and then take the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean, and when they get home, I'm afraid it will be New Year's Day.

Long story short. In BSP; Because China did not have a formal scientific organization at the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was naturally unable to sign a reciprocal visit agreement with the Royal Society. In this case, according to the rules of the Royal Society, they will subsidize the living expenses of the visiting scientist, but the duration of the research visit cannot be less than the BSP; Sun Yuanqi was a little moved: The establishment of such an organization in China can indeed shorten the distance between domestic counterparts, facilitate exchanges between domestic and foreign scientific circles, and play an important role in promoting the level of science and technology in China. Now that my uncle Sun Jianai is the Minister of Education and is in charge of education, it would be a pity if this great opportunity was not used!

Seeing that Sun Yuanqi agreed, Hagens also gave a detailed introduction to some of the UK's practices on the exchange of researchers and exchange students, for Sun Yuanqi's reference, so that there would be no problems in the future.

After talking for a while, he talked about the arrangements for the next period of time. Since it is defined as a research visit, Sun Yuanqi naturally has to go to various universities, research institutes, and laboratories. In addition, he was invited by the Royal Society to give an academic report.

What content does it report? This made Sun Yuanqi spend a lot of thought.

How does the chemistry work? This knowledge has been written into university textbooks and has become well-known, and it seems a bit unkind to use it to fry cold rice yourself!

Atomic structure? Photoelectric effect? Many of these things are not recognized by the academic community, and it seems inappropriate to publicize them in the conservative British court.

Quantum mechanics? Don't say you understand it, but when you see this name, it is estimated that people don't want to come.

Relativity? Cyclotron particle accelerator? Forget it, don't inspire them to make a big killer!

After thinking about it, I finally settled on a topic: antimatter.

This concept was just put forward by Sun Yuanqi and Zhang Yihui, and it was very innovative. Second, positrons can be easily found in cosmic rays, and the fact that the three particles that humans now recognize happen to be the other two and light, which will provide strong support for the antimatter claim. Third, it could provide a "place to use" for the mass-energy equation, provided that antimatter is found, of course. Finally, it is possible to turn the interest of some scientists in the field of nuclear physics in the UK to the search for antimatter, so that their minds do not go in the direction they should not. You know, a hundred years later, you haven't been able to find any signs of antimatter in the vast universe!

Just when Sun Yuanqi was carefully preparing for this report meeting at the hotel, the porter handed over a Chinese greeting sticker.

In distant England, I suddenly saw the familiar square words, and my heart suddenly gave birth to the joy of "meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land", and hurriedly opened it to see, only to see that the inscription reads:

After learning Li Fuji.
