Chapter 72: Shi Lezhi?
"Lao Zhang, it seems that the EAST project is still going to be based on Tokmak, so what should we do?"
The two people who left with Professor Zhang turned their heads and saw Academician Wang and them gathered together, and immediately asked with some concern.
It seemed reasonable to write a report and submit it, but they all knew that if that were the case, the EAST project would be 100% focused on the Tokmak device and would choose to abandon the stellarator.
"Lao Chen, I plan to apply for the stellar mimic project that Qing University cooperated with the military."
Professor Zhang was silent for a while and said, in addition to teaching at the University of South China, he is studying stellarstellarstellar, for him, the mathematical model of plasma turbulence has been successfully constructed, and the stellar has officially ushered in spring, and such an opportunity does not want to give up no matter what.
"But it's a confidential project, although everyone has heard a little about it, but they don't know the actual situation, and rashly applying is likely to cause trouble for themselves."
The secrecy regulations are no joke, although they are all big names in the field of controlled nuclear fusion in China, and they can know some information through their own networks, but even if they know, they have to pretend not to know.
This is still the field of controlled nuclear fusion is relatively less sensitive, if other military fields, let alone discuss applications, the above and the military have not found them, then it is a crime to even say it.
"Lao Zhang, how about we go to Guangdong Province?"
Another person thought for a while and said: "There are almost no people who study stellars in China, and the laboratory in Guangdong Province also spent a lot of money to poach people from Max Pu, if we go over, we must be able to get enough resources." ”
"Lao Yang, are you willing?"
Professor Zhang glanced at his colleague with a strange expression, this is different from the project of applying to go to Qingdao University, at least they can keep everything they compile, and if the stellar mimic fails, then you can come back.
And going to the laboratory in Guangdong Province is like going to the sea 30 years ago, which is equivalent to giving up everything and turning to private work, if Lu Yi goes bankrupt, then it will be difficult for them to go back.
They are all in their 50s, but they are not the age 20 years ago when they failed and could start all over again.
"What's so reluctant, my grandchildren have been born, and my son doesn't need my help with a stable job.
My wife left early, and it didn't cost much to live alone, and the little coffin in the bank was enough for me to eat and drink until I was old, so what else was there to ask for, and if I failed, I would retire early at most. ”
Lao Yang said very open-mindedly, who doesn't want to be famous in history if he does research and learning.
As one of the most important projects of human civilization, if it really makes an important breakthrough in controlled nuclear fusion, it will undoubtedly be remembered by history.
At his age, there is nothing to enjoy and worry about, so it is undoubtedly the right choice to pursue his dreams and pursue his posthumous name.
After all, there are rare local tyrants who are waving their banknotes to participate in this project that is avoided by capital, and it is really a waste not to seize this opportunity.
"Actually, we have a choice."
Lao Chen hesitated and said: "I have a little friendship with President Luo of CUHK, if it is really decided that the EAST project will not invest in stellars this time, we can apply to transfer to CUHK as a professor, and then go to that laboratory." ”
"As for your friendship with him slapping each other's tables and competing for research funding?" The corners of Professor Zhang's mouth twitched, and he felt that both of them were a little crazy.
One simply suggested going to the sea to go to a private laboratory, and the other simply suggested that he should transfer to CUHK, do you really think that at their level, they can transfer to another school? And it was transferred to the side of Lao Luo, who was still slapping each other's tables and blowing their beards and staring at each other a few years ago.
"Let's wait a minute, after all, it's not enough to have money to do research in China."
Professor Zhang thought for a while, sighed and said, "I feel that in order to ensure that the EAST project does not invest in stellarics, Academician Wang is likely to make some moves in the laboratory in Guangdong Province. ”
......
After the completion of the psychological evaluation in the laboratory, it was recruited and selected for three consecutive days, and finally 360 of the 1,616 doctoral students who came to participate in the interview were officially admitted, including 120 in physics, 40 in mathematics, and 200 in materials.
This personnel framework configuration, except for the lack of professors and scholars at the boss level, has reached the configuration of the world's top physics laboratories and materials laboratories.
On this day, Lu Yi took Lin Meng, Zhang Qing and Hu Feng to discuss how to divide and distribute project tasks, and each project topic, whether it is the design optimization of the stellar simulator device in the physics laboratory or the research of more efficient materials in the materials laboratory, it is necessary to split out small projects and hand them over to the following researchers for research.
Just as the stellarator is divided into the inner and outer walls, and the coil that generates the magnetic field, the deflector and other components, the research of superconducting materials is also divided into different studies of structure.
As a leader, they are responsible for the core research of the project and coordinate the research of the entire project.
"Brother Hu, I won't interfere with the details of your material research over there, but I'll say a few general requirements."
Lu Yi opened his notebook, looked at Hu Feng and said: "Last year, the phenomenon of superconductivity appeared in the two-dimensional overlapping structure of graphene, and then you will continue to study superconducting metal compounds in addition to some people.
In the research of carbon-based superconducting materials, it is mainly based on the two-dimensional overlapping superconductivity phenomenon of graphene to produce carbon-based superconducting materials in the true sense, which is the first step.
The second step is to make the carbon-based superconducting material and find a way to make it into the actual wire.
In addition, since superconductivity can be produced by overlapping structures in two dimensions, whether other structures will produce superconductivity is also your research direction. ”
"I understand."
Hu Feng nodded, he understood that the main purpose of his research was to serve the stellar, so such research must have a direction.
"Lu Lu, the graphene superconductivity phenomenon announced last year is superconductivity at a two-dimensional overlapping angle, can such a material make wires?"
Zhang Qing next to him raised his head and had some doubts, the reason why the superconductivity phenomenon of graphene caused a sensation last year was mainly because this discovery opened up the scope of superconducting materials, and was no longer limited to metal compounds.
In fact, it is almost impossible for this two-dimensional overlapping angle to reflect the superconducting material to be applied in reality, after all, the practical application is not a mille-feuille, but a spicy strip.
"There will always be a way, which is why other structures can produce superconductivity."
Lu Yi turned his gaze to Lin Meng and said, "Xiaomeng's side also has a heavy task, whether it is the design and research of stellars or the structure of superconducting materials at the microscopic level, they need the support of mathematical models on your side......
Knock knock, just then, there was a sudden knock on the door of the conference room.
"Come in." Lu Yi stopped talking, looked at the door and said.
The door was opened, and Xu Ying, the big housekeeper of the laboratory, walked in with a tablet.
"Lu Lu, things are not good." Handing over the tablet in his hand to Lu Yi, Xu Ying said a little anxiously.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yi took the tablet with some doubts, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at the first glance.
Is this a provocation to find trouble?
Who is Shi Lezhi?
