The collapsed hotel is on the outskirts of Zurich city, the name is French, which translates to tulip, and it is also a four- or five-star hotel from the perspective of low-key luxury in terms of decoration.

Airfares and travel expenses are reimbursed, and it is not their own money that is spent anyway, so naturally no one will be frugal in this regard.

While chatting on the road, Lu Zhou learned that although Senior Brother Yan was very low-key in his speech and behavior, he was also a terrible person.

As one of the four doctoral students led by Academician Lu, he is also well-known among the younger generation of scholars in the field of theoretical physics in China.

He is named in the Beslll International Collaboration, and when he discovered the tetraquark state particles, he participated in the "full spectrum analysis" of the experimental results.

However, physics is not the same as mathematics, especially this kind of large-scale international scientific research project involving multinational cooperation, everyone's work is very important, and one person's contribution is too insignificant in front of the whole team.

However, the discovery of the tetraquark state was rated as the "best scientific research achievement of the year in the physics community" that year, and even if it played the role of a screw, this scientific research qualification was quite impressive.

And it's not just Beslll, this Senior Brother Yan, like Academician Lu, is also an official member of the LHCb cooperative organization. It's still a little bit taller than him, an intern.

After arriving at the hotel, Senior Brother Yan parked the car in the parking lot, and then helped Academician Lu drag his suitcase and led the two of them to the direction of the elevator.

As he walked, he talked about tomorrow's itinerary.

"It's more than 270 kilometres from here to Geneva, and we'll leave tomorrow morning after breakfast, and we'll have lunch there."

Lu Zhou asked, "Why don't we just take the plane?" ”

Senior Brother Yan grinned: "By plane? Switzerland is not as large as one of our provinces, and it is not long before the plane takes off, so it is not as convenient as driving. ”

Although he said that, Lu Zhou always felt that this guy was just thinking about a car addiction.

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the group continued on the road, and as Senior Brother Yan said, they arrived in Geneva before noon.

After finding a restaurant in this famous "United Nations City" and hastily settling lunch, Brother Yan drove on the road and took them to CERN, the headquarters of CERN, which is said to be home to the world's brightest minds on the border between Switzerland and France.

Parking in front of a modern hotel in this town, Lu Zhou was about to walk towards the hotel with his suitcase in tow, when he suddenly saw an old man with a beard walking towards him.

"Welcome, friends from China, your students asked me to borrow a car, and I knew that you were coming." With a hearty smile, the old man stretched out his right hand, shook it with Academician Lu, and then looked at Lu Zhou next to him, "New face, your student?" ”

"Lu Zhou," Lu Zhou smiled kindly, and took the initiative to reach out and shake the old man's hand.

"Gray," Professor Grayn smiled and nodded, "I seem to have heard your name, from a friend of mine in Princeton. Let's not talk about that, after driving for so long, you should be tired, I'll take you to the room. ”

"People are still old, not as good as when they were young." Academician Lu said with a smile, and his voice was a little emotional.

"It's inevitable that people will always get old...... This way. ”

The rooms of the three of them are connected together, and the entire sixth floor is occupied by the scientific researchers of the Huaguo Research Group, but now the research team of Shuimu University has arrived, and the people from Jiangcheng University and the Huake family are still on their way.

"Professor Greine is a big star in the field of theoretical physics, and he and Academician Lu have known each other for a long time, and they helped us a lot during the Beslll project," Looking at the two old men who met and reminisced, Senior Brother Yan introduced to Lu Zhou with a smile, "Do you want to take you to familiarize yourself with the environment here?" ”

Lu Zhou: "Then please." ”

The first thing you need to do when you arrive in a new environment is to familiarize yourself with the terrain.

Following Senior Brother Yan, Lu Zhou familiarized himself with the surrounding environment.

Objectively evaluated, this is a place with a strong scientific research atmosphere.

It's rare for a scientific research organization to attract a large group of top physics professionals with content alone.

In terms of project funding, CERN's funding is by no means the largest in the world, but the theoretical physicists working here account for half of the world's theoretical physics community.

Maybe you have a casual meal in a nearby town, and you may be sitting opposite an honorary professor at a well-known university, or a big figure in the field of theoretical physics.

The restart of an LHCb project has formed a grand occasion of all nations coming to the dynasty in this remote "mountainous area", which is really enviable.

Finally, Lu Zhou took a photo in front of CERN Building 1.

Now the research center is now out of use and has been converted into a museum-like venue, where visitors can buy tickets to enter and exit. Inside the research center, there is also a commemorative plaque that is the birthplace of the Internet.

Few people know that this is not only the world's largest hadron collider, but also the birthplace of the world's first website, the first Internet server, and the first browser.

And the original intention of all this is just to give a group of physicists real-time analysis of experimental data.

That's why it's not only a mecca for physicists, but also home to coders and hardware engineers who maintain supercomputing that processes data and connect theoretical physics labs around the world.

Compare this to the research teams of Google and Microsoft, and even the two together are completely incomparable. Even if their market value is converted into money, they can buy a few larger hadron colliders.

After the visit, Lu Zhou and Senior Brother Yan had a meal in the cafeteria and returned to the hotel.

Taking out the unfinished literature from his suitcase, he was about to read the report on the latest research progress in quantum chromodynamics for a while, but before he could read two lines, there was a knock at the door.

Pulling open the door, Senior Brother Yan, who had disappeared for a while just now, came back again, this time stuffing a document into Lu Zhou's hand.

"There's an impromptu meeting at eight o'clock in the evening, we have an internal meeting, and the meeting documents are here, so you can go through them first."

Lu Zhou subconsciously took the document and asked casually, "Temporary meeting?" What to discuss. ”

Senior Brother Yan: "The results of the CERN meeting vote have just come out, and the majority vote has passed the re-analysis of the previous resonance state of the baryon to the decay of the baryon before restarting the experiment. We and Syracuse University were responsible for verifying the data in Partition B, and the suggestion was to write an analysis report independently at the same time, and then check the correctness at the end. ”

"What do you need me to do?"

After all, the system task is in his body, and Lu Zhou is naturally quite active.

He didn't want to end up that he just came here to spend a vacation, and it didn't play any role, and finally the system threw 1 experience in his face.

This kind of quest with no upper limit experience reward is quite rare, and it is not guaranteed that the income of one task will be more than four or five tasks.

"Waiting for the specific task to be assigned, what you have to do now is to go through the documents in hand as soon as possible, and then quickly get into the state. We need an expert who is good at mathematics to help us win this game," Speaking of this, Senior Brother Yan grinned and patted Lu Zhou's shoulder, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you." ”
