Chapter Eighty-Five: No Regret
After a while, the experiment was ready to begin again.
Huang Mingzhe turned his head to Zhang Tingyu and said: "If my calculation is correct, using lead ions to collide at the 93.4TeV energy level can generate 150~200 graviton signals. ”
Zhang Tingyu looked at Huang Mingzhe, who was full of confidence, and could only nod and order.
The experiment began again, the laser raised the energy level to 93.4 TeV, and the collision began again.
"W Particle ...... Detected"
"Boson signal No. 63 detected......"
……
A piece of data was obtained by the probe, Zhang Tingyu stared at the projection screen dumbfounded, and the No. 63 boson was a signal suspected of graviton.
At this time, a total of 172 No. 63 boson signals were detected on the projection screen.
"Is it really predictable?" Wang Yifang involuntarily scratched his hair.
Others were also frightened by this accuracy, and the frequency of the signal of the No. 63 boson was within the predicted range of Huang Mingzhe.
Huang Mingzhe smiled and said, "Test again." ”
"No problem."
Zhang Tingyu continued to direct the tail field accelerator test, and carried out three experiments in a row, and the number of signal appearances of No. 63 boson was 172, 186, and 166 respectively.
Now everyone has to believe it.
Wang Yifang said distressedly: "If there is a gravitational wave detector, we can accurately determine whether this No. 63 boson is a graviton." ”
"Isn't Huazhong University of Science and Technology and the Academy of Sciences a gravitational wave detection plan?" Huang Mingzhe asked.
Well? Wang Yifang was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "Yes, Huazhong University of Science and Technology has a gravitational wave project in 98, but the scale is not large; On the side of the Academy of Sciences, Academician Hu is studying this aspect, and they are preparing the Tianqin Project. ”
"Can I borrow their equipment?"
"I'll try." Wang Yifang didn't dare to pack the ticket.
The experiment continued, and a day of intensive collision experiments once again generated a huge amount of data, and the funds were also burning wildly, more than 20 million yuan were burned in one day.
However, no one felt that it was expensive, and the Dayi Tail Field Accelerator could conduct about 40 collision experiments a day, which was more than the Large Hadron Collider of the Western Continent Alliance did in a year.
Consider how much CERN spends on the Large Hadron Collider in a year, at least $1 billion a year, and that's more than that if it fails.
Moreover, the performance of the Dayi Tail Field Accelerator is dozens of times that of the Large Hadron Collider. This comparison, does it feel that Dayi's tail field accelerator is super cost-effective?
Huazhong University of Science and Technology is relatively simple, and they are also one of the member universities of the Creeper Alliance, and Huang Mingzhe has achieved cooperation through this relationship.
However, Huazhong University of Science and Technology does not have equipment that can detect gravitational waves, and they mainly do more theoretical work.
……
Academy.
National Microgravity Laboratory.
Academician Hu put down the phone and asked several other deputy directors and senior researchers: "What do you think that the Dayi Scientific Research Base wants to borrow a laser interferometer detector from us?"
"Aren't they working on a particle collider? How do you use a laser interferor?" Deputy Director Wen Ning looked puzzled.
Academician Hu said with a smile: "The Houyi project is already running, and I heard that the energy level of the collider has been raised to 250TeV in one direction, so there may be some major discoveries!" ”
"Oh my God, how did they do that?"
"Is Huang Mingzhe's tail accelerator theory really so good?"
"I don't know a little bit, the laser of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics has refreshed the energy level to 7500J some time ago."
Academician Hu knocked on the table and solemnly warned everyone: "It's good to know some things, don't go outside and talk nonsense." ”
Everyone immediately reacted.
Wen Ning, who was in charge of developing the laser interferometer detector, thought for a while and said, "I'll bring the No. 6 detector over!" ”
"This ......," the others stopped.
The No. 6 probe, the laser interferometer detector they planned to install on the satellite, was also an important piece of equipment for the Tianqin project, and it was obvious that everyone was worried about what was wrong.
"Alright! It's just a bit of a borrowing, and there's no need for such a small family. Academician Hu made a final decision and decided on this matter.
Wen Ning then took the No. 6 probe and more than a dozen researchers to Xi'an.
The reason why the No. 6 detector was chosen is mainly to facilitate transportation, after all, the volume of large laser interferometer detectors starts at a few hundred meters, and even has a length of several kilometers, and there is no way to transport large ones.
That's why I chose the laser interferometer detector used on the satellite, but this thing is also a very expensive equipment.
……
The high autumn weather in the south of the loess high slope has become very lively recently.
Especially with the continuous publication of research results in the Chinese physics community, the whole world has fallen silent.
In particular, Huang Mingzhe's latest paper published in the Journal of Physics, "The Gauge Model of Gravitons and Gravitational Waves", has stirred up a thousand waves with one stone.
Not only the domestic physics community attaches great importance to it, but also the foreign physics community has sent letters to the Institute of High Energy Research and Huang Mingzhe.
Meanwhile.
The city of Geneva, the Western Union of the United States.
At CERN's headquarters, a group of physicists were caught off guard by the news.
The Gallic physicist Pompey de looked at the paper and fax in his hand with a bewildered expression: "Is that tail accelerator real?"
"Huh! I do not know. The German engineer Guko Max replied.
Other scientists in the conference room included Serge Arrosh of Gaul, Edward Witten and David Weinlander of the United States, Peter Higgs of Britain, and Ding Zhao of Dayuan Province.
There was silence in the room, and Peter Higgs said calmly: "Politics should be far away from science. ”
Others are both agreeable and helpless.
The last time CERN excluded Chinese scientists, it is now irreversible, and although Huaguo did not refuse them academic exchanges, it is estimated that it is even more difficult to participate in the Houyi project.
Edward Witten pointed to the copy of the paper and said: "Judging from the data of the paper, their tail accelerator is not small. ”
"At least to the one-way 100TeV level, the tail field accelerator actually let that young man get it." Peter Higgs is also very emotional, he and Academician Yang are figures of the same era, and it can be said that he is one of the living fossils in the contemporary physics world.
As an engineer, Guko Marks knows the difficulty and computational content, and if CERN's Large Hadron Collider is a miracle, then the Huaguo tail field accelerator is a masterpiece.
According to the data released by Huaguo, the Houyi plan has invested a total of about 700 million US dollars, which is less than a fraction of the investment in the Large Hadron Collider.
Not to mention the billions of dollars that CERN burns every year, two tail field accelerators can be built.
For a while, everyone had mixed feelings, their large hadron collider has now reached its limit, and if there is a new discovery, it must be updated to a high-brightness hadron collider (about 200TeV in both directions), which is estimated to require 5 billion US dollars to make a foundation.
The problem is that now that the Houyi Project has achieved such a high energy level, wouldn't it be very embarrassing for them to spend 5 billion US dollars to upgrade the Large Hadron Collider.
When they upgrade the Large Hadron Collider, it will be at least until about 2025.
In ten years, the physics community in China has long been below 200TeV.
Howell, Chairman of CERN, is really embarrassed at this time!
