Chapter 332: The list of academicians is announced
Hearing the news that the peer review was successfully passed, Xu Chuan had a bright smile on his face.
The NS equation has a special meaning for him, it is the dream of two lifetimes.
Straightening his clothes, he bowed slightly to the four people in front of him to show his gratitude for their hard work during this time.
"Thank you! This is the best news I've ever heard! ”
To be honest, Xu Chuan was also surprised by the speed of peer review of the NS equation proof paper.
In less than twenty days, peer review is a lightning speed when put into conjecture on the level of a millennial puzzle.
Under normal circumstances, even if the certifier successfully passes the report meeting and conquers most people, it will take at least two months to pass the peer review if everything goes well.
In order to ensure the correctness of the paper, especially this kind of proof paper that has a great impact on the entire mathematical community, it is necessary to review it over and over again to verify that every detail of the paper is correct.
And this time, on the one hand, there is only the last step left in the proof of the NS equation, and the previous related papers have been reviewed.
On the other hand, the mathematical tool used to solve this problem, the 'micro-construction', is so perfect that the peer reviewers can hardly find its flaws.
Therefore, after consultation between the peer review panel and the members of the International Mathematical Union, it was decided to unanimously approve the proof paper of the NS equation.
On the side, Robert, the editor-in-chief of "New Advances in Mathematics", walked up with a smile, gave him a hug, and patted him on the back vigorously.
"Congratulations, Xu, your paper will be published in the next issue of New Advances in Mathematics, and we will do our best to promote this great success to the mathematical and physical communities, so that more people can know about it."
Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Thank you." ”
The proof paper of the NS equation passed the final peer review in mid-to-late December.
After a two-day break, the 19-year co-optation meeting for academicians is about to begin.
Xu Chuan didn't delay any longer, packed his luggage and took the high-speed train to the capital.
The place where you settled is still the familiar Beihai Hotel, and even the room is the one that was originally fixed.
According to the hotel manager, it was this room that had become his exclusive room, and no matter how long he left, he would not arrange for anyone else to stay in it.
After a night's rest in the hotel, the 2019 co-opted meeting of the two academies officially began.
In the early morning, when the sky was bright, Xu Chuan had already gotten up and finished washing.
After a simple breakfast in the hotel, I took the special car arranged by the Science and Technology Department and came all the way to the Huaguo Hall.
When he followed the concierge to the venue through the inspection at the door, the whole venue was already crowded.
Looking at the heads in the auditorium, Xu Chuan sighed a little, he thought that he had come early, after all, the formal meeting had only started at ten o'clock, and it was only half past eight now.
As a result, it now seems that he may be the latest to come.
Seeing Xu Chuan coming in, the etiquette staff waiting in the venue immediately came over: "Professor Xu, your position is in the middle group of the second row, do you need me to take you over?" ”
Xu Chuan nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you." ”
To be honest, although there were a lot of people in the venue, he didn't know many people.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that he doesn't do much communication in the domestic academic circle, and since returning to China, he has hardly been out of Jinling except for things related to the project.
In addition, it has only been two years since he returned to China after he became famous, and there are indeed not many people he knows.
At least, he didn't know many of the people who came to attend the report meeting on the co-optation of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences today.
But just because he doesn't know anyone else doesn't mean that the other people in the meeting don't know him.
As Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff into the venue, someone soon came forward to greet him warmly.
"Professor Xu. Long time no see. A middle-aged man in a suit walked over and greeted him warmly with a smile on his face.
Xu Chuan stopped and turned his head to look, the person in front of him felt a little familiar, and after thinking about it quickly, he reacted, and greeted with a smile: "Long time no see, Dean Liu." ”
He was greeted by Professor Liu Changan, the head of the Observation Array Center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory, who studied under Academician Nan Rendong.
When he used the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem to extend the application of parameter 4 to observe the experiment, he met with Dean Liu several times.
I didn't expect to meet here today.
"After a few years, I didn't expect Professor Xu to remember me." Liu Changan replied with a smile, also a little emotional.
In a few years, the young genius who was already valued by the country during his freshman year has now grown into the NO1 in the domestic academic community, and even in the whole world, not to mention the first, he can also rank in the top three.
Judging from the theoretical achievements in mathematics and physics alone, no one would object to saying that he is NO1.
Two millennial problems, one Nobel Prize, involving mathematics, physics, astronomy and many other fields, are heavy enough to push him to the first person in the field of mathematics today.
Not to mention today's academic circles, even throughout history, there are only a handful of people who have made such achievements.
Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Back then, in the observation array center of the Yunnan Astronomical Observatory, I was thanks to the care of Dean Liu. ”
Liu Changan smiled: "Hey, it's nothing more than a matter of two researchers." Speaking of which, the observations you left at the South Yunnan Observatory Observation Array Center have helped me even more. ”
"If it weren't for your important astronomical achievement, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to stand here today."
Although his senior brother Professor Nan Rendong, the development of astronomy in China is relatively late, and the current observable close-range astronomical phenomena have been carved up by foreign astronomical institutions, and it is still difficult to make results.
The achievement of a companion star in Betelgeuse's tetrahydrogen cladding is undoubtedly subversive in the astronomical community.
Although it was made by the young man in front of him, as the head of the observation array center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory, he still suffered a lot of dividends.
After all, it was made with the help of observation array equipment from them, and they couldn't be bypassed. Coupled with the original achievements and contributions, he has the opportunity to stand here today.
Otherwise, according to his original estimate, he would have to wait at least a few more years or even more than ten years to continue to hone his qualifications and achievements before he could have a chance to be nominated.
Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Dean Liu is modest, everyone sees your contribution to the astronomical industry, and Betelgeuse's discovery is just icing on the cake." ”
Liu Changan said with a smile: "When will Professor Xu have time to go to the observation center again and point out the development route of astronomy in our country?" ”
Xu Chuan said with a smile: "Don't dare to be instructed, you must go when you have time." ”
"Hahaha, okay, then it's decided, I must come when I have time." Liu Changan replied with a smile, he didn't take up too much of Xu Chuan's time.
At this conference, not only him, but there must be more people who wanted to say hello to this young national treasure-level scholar and get acquainted with each other, so he just chatted a few words and left an impression.
And Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff to continue to his seat, and along the way, there were many people who came up to greet him, and he responded politely one by one.
As time passed, the countdown to the start of the congress began.
The professors and scholars who participated in this grand event took their seats one after another, and leaders at all levels came to the table one after another, and the hall gradually became quiet.
The red curtain and the red podium set off the dignified and solemn atmosphere of the entire Assembly Hall.
As the loud national anthem sounded, all the guests in the Great Hall stood up.
When the loud voice came to an end, the 2019 Conference on the Co-optation of Academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which had been selected for nearly two years and attracted much attention from the domestic academic community, officially kicked off.
Academician Bai Lichun, the dean of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the executive director of the Faculty of Sciences, took the lead in making an opening speech.
Subsequently, he took the stage to speak, hoping that the newly elected academicians would take practical actions to strengthen the construction of work style and style of study, set an example in promoting the spirit of scientists and safeguarding scientific ethics, play an academic leading role, and continue to climb the peak of science and technology.
After an impassioned speech, the conference also entered the final topic, announcing the list of co-opted academicians of the two academies in 2019.
The list is sorted by the surname of the department, and under the passionate and steady voice of the person presiding over the conference, the first to obtain the list of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
He is the permanent director of the Purple Mountain Astronomical Observatory.
He has made important progress in space exploration of dark matter, development of space astronomical observation equipment, data analysis, etc., and has innovated and developed a new technology method for high-energy cosmic ray electron detection, which has been successfully applied to the ATIC experiment of long-period balloon detection in Antarctica.
He has made important contributions to the development of astronomy in China.
As the first list was announced, there was a round of applause in the Great Hall, and everyone congratulated the great scholar.
On the other side, in the office of Liu Gaojun, president of the Administration Building, Chen Zhengping, Rong Zhizhuan, the dean of the School of Mathematics, and Yu Yongwang, the dean of the School of Physics, were sitting on the sofa looking at the TV on the wall and chatting.
"It's been almost 20 years, and our school can finally produce a young academician again." In the office, Liu Gaojun sighed as he watched the live broadcast on TV.
Since entering the year 2000, although NTU has also produced academicians, young academicians under the age of 40 have not been issued for 20 years.
The last time NTU produced young academicians under the age of 40 was back in 97.
On the side, Rong Zhizhuan smiled and said: "I heard that the Academy of Engineering has also reported Professor Xu's list, I wonder if he has a chance to get an academician of the two academies at the same time this year?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhengping shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid this is difficult." ”
Liu Gaojun took over with a smile: "With his achievements, it is enough to get academician qualifications in the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering respectively, but if you want to get an academician of the two academies in the same year, I am afraid it is not possible." ”
"After all, there is no case of an academician of the two academies being awarded to the same person in the same year, unless an exception can be made above."
"But wait a few more years, and the academicians of the two academies should be fine. At that time, we will also have a scholar at the level of academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. ”
On the side, Yu Yongwang said with a smile: "It's better to say that this time he can get a place in the Academy of Sciences is still from the Academy of Engineering." ”
Chen Zhengping thought for a while and said: "It is most likely the Academy of Sciences, although the artificial SEI thin film and nuclear waste reuse technology and engineering he researched are very important, but the weight of the Nobel Prize + Philippine Prize is still larger." ”
"Look, no matter what, Professor Xu will definitely be able to get one this year."
