Chapter 20 Mathematics Freshmen in the Chemistry Laboratory
"No way, the derivation of mathematics is mathematics, but chemistry is about what exists, and you just analyze it theoretically. So I have reservations about your point of view! Professor Chen didn't agree with Junxin at all, but he didn't reprimand him like he did with his own students, after all, Junxin is not a chemistry major.
"Professor, mathematics is the queen of natural science, since mathematics entered the natural science, it has always had a guiding role in a certain discipline at a certain level, so I believe that after mathematical derivation, the crystal with five symmetries I am talking about will exist!" Junxin did not show weakness and said-for-tat.
"Junxin, I admit that you are very good at mathematics, but I want to emphasize once again that chemistry is different from mathematics, and chemistry requires frogs, which are more discovered in practice!" Professor Chen surprisingly did not get angry with Junxin, the student who was arguing with him, and his tone was still the same, but his demeanor had become calm.
"As I just said, Penrose's concept is extended to three-dimensional space, which I can do through mathematical reasoning, but it should not be difficult to generalize the conclusion of two-dimensional to three-dimensional, two triosahedrons are interspersed to get an icosahedron, theoretically there is no problem at all, I can give his model, but in actual experiments, how to get five symmetries requires an optical converter."
"I have this instrument in my lab!" Professor Chen frowned and said, "If you need to be verified, you are always welcome to come to my laboratory!" But I need you to come up with a practical experimental plan and plan! ”
"Yes!" Junxin also simply agreed. Although I don't know much about Professor Chen, I can probably know Professor Chen's personality if I go back and ask around. So Junxin didn't care and agreed.
"Ask you about someone!" In the afternoon, Junxin bumped into Gu Mengxue who went out with him at the door of the cafeteria, and after a period of getting along, Junxin also roughly understood Gu Mengxue's background, although he had already guessed, but in the end he was startled. Gu Mengxue's father is a high-ranking ministerial-level official, and his own family has its own influence in China, and it is very popular that people can compare with it.
However, as a graduate of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, how many big people have you seen? So after being surprised, she didn't take it seriously, which also made Gu Mengxue, who had a good impression of Junxin, more and more satisfied with Junxin.
"Oh? Inquire whom? Gu Mengxue didn't ask what the reason was.
"I would like to know Professor Hao Chen, who teaches structural chemistry in the School of Chemistry, is it okay?"
"You'll have an answer in two days!" Gu Mengxue nodded and said decisively, "What are you asking for?" Gu Mengxue thought that Junxin was investigating a certain figure in the political arena, so she didn't want to ask why. But after getting the answer, I found that it was slightly different from what I thought, and I was immediately interested.
"That's the case, I'm ...... today" Immediately, Junxin explained what happened to him today to Gu Mengxue.
Gu Mengxue couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "You went to other people's classes to make trouble and finally smashed other people's fields, hehe, you are really...!" This made Gu Mengxue quite speechless. It is estimated that the entire Mizuki probably can't laugh like Junxin, and this is the only one, and there is no other semicolon.
Junxin didn't care about this, and after greeting Gu Mengxue, he hurriedly walked to the library alone. After all, it took a year for Penrose to generalize the problem of symmetry from two to three dimensions, and even if there are works by his predecessors, Junxin wants to make it his own, and a large number of literature inquiries are indispensable.
Two days passed, and Junxin also got the answer he wanted from Gu Mengxue, Professor Chen Hao is a traditional intellectual, amiable, with a strong moral bottom line, committed to the study of basic science, and is also an outstanding educator. During his tenure as a professor, even in the past ten years, his education has been actively maintained and is very loved by his classmates.
"Thank you, Mengxue, I have a general understanding of the situation. Well, I made an appointment with Professor Chen to visit his lab in the afternoon, would you like to come along? ”
"Good! But it won't be inconvenient, right? Gu Mengxue was very happy to be able to visit the laboratory, but then raised her doubts.
"It's okay, it's all basic research, and it doesn't involve anything that needs to be kept secret." Junxin didn't care, and invited a liberal arts student to visit the laboratory, which was nothing in Junxin's opinion.
The two quickly walked through most of Tsinghua Park and arrived at Professor Chen's laboratory. After arriving at the laboratory, Junxin did not find Professor Chen, thinking that he had not yet arrived. As long as there are three graduate students in the entire laboratory, they may have already explained, so the three of them did not prevent Junxin and Gu Mengxue from entering, but they were busy with the experiments in their own hands.
Although it is exactly the same as the laboratory structure seen in later generations, the instruments inside are completely different, although they may be almost the same in function, but Junxin is not a historian of science and technology, and most of the instruments are almost unknown.
The laboratory is divided into two parts, the first half is the ordinary operation area, and the laboratory table is placed with some basic reagents and experimental supplies such as alcohol lamps, pipettes, separating funnels, etc., and several brothers and sisters are operating in this area.
The second half of the laboratory is full of large instruments, although they are large instruments, but they are only three or four instruments, but they are relatively large. Junxin walked over and looked at the nameplate, it turned out that they were all imported from abroad, and there was an English version of the manual next to it. Jun Xin picked up one of them casually and looked around with interest, but Gu Mengxue on the side was quite interested in the laboratory, looking at it here and there, as if there was something interesting hidden in this laboratory.
"Let's put aside the work at hand and come and talk about something!" Just when Junxin read more than half of the manual of the electronic transmitter, Professor Chen had already arrived at the laboratory.
"Mengxue, you sit down first, I'll go for a while!" Junxin knew that he was going to stay in the laboratory during this time, so he hurriedly trotted over.
"There's a new classmate in the lab, I found it when I was taking a freshman course, Junxin, you can introduce yourself to everyone."
Professor Chong Chen nodded: "Hello everyone, my name is Junxin, Junzi's Jun, Confidence Xin, a freshman in the Department of Mathematics, I have become interested in crystals, and I have been allowed by the professor to study here for a period of time, please take care of me." Thank you! Junxin didn't pour beans from a bamboo tube to tell the things in class, but euphemistically changed the words.
Professor Chen nodded, but explained: "After listening to my class, Junxin explained the crystal from a mathematical point of view, which gave rise to some very interesting ideas, and I want to come here to confirm it, and we should get along well in the future." ”
"Guo Han, you have been in the laboratory for the longest time, and the project has basically been completed, just a little time, you can take some time to take him to familiarize himself with the laboratory, and by the way, you will also teach him the methods of using the instrument. I've got a meeting to go! ”
Jun Xin took a look and found that one of them was tall and thin, wearing thick glasses, and nodded in response, and said in his heart that this was the senior who would guide his experiments in the laboratory in the future.
Then Junxin called Shanggu Mengxue, and the two of them were systematically familiar with the laboratory under the leadership of Guo Han.
In this way, in the chemistry laboratory of Mizuki University, there was an additional freshman in the mathematics department, and history quietly turned a corner at this moment.
