Chapter 269: The editor-in-chief of Nature comes to the door in person
This quote by George Parisi is obviously a bit nonsensical.
Physics is an empirical science, what does this have to do with using experience to judge whether Li Mu's proof is correct?
It's just that several other professors around them glanced at each other, and then they all nodded in agreement.
Indeed, judging whether a big bull's thesis is correct or not according to empiricism, if it is changed to someone else, it may not work, but if it is placed on Li Mu's body, it will probably work.
This is also the impression that Li Mu has always left on the academic community.
Never missed.
"Okay, I still have one paper I haven't read yet, and I have to keep reading it."
George Parisi's words quickly brought everyone present back to their senses.
He pointed to his computer and spoke to them.
This paper is only a principle paper, although the importance is self-evident, but he is more interested in another "On Superconductivity".
所以,他也没有去管其他几名教授走没走,开始看起了另外一篇论文。
虽然上一篇论文还有几页他没有看完,不过他也基本上能够猜出来后面几页是如何推导的了,因此也没有必要继续看下去了。
And when Hanberg saw this, he didn't stay any longer.
Now that George Parisi has agreed, they have to go back to reading the papers.
You can't afford to be left behind at this time.
Silence returned to the office, although there were a few of Parisi's students, but those students did not dare to shout while the tutor read the papers.
只不过,时不时地听到他们这位诺奖得主的导师口中发出惊叹的声音,还有他的脸上又不时地露出恍然大悟的表情,他的学生们都不由怀着强烈的好奇心,打开arxiv,然后找到了李牧的那两篇论文。
Then, they gave up.
I can't see it, I can't see it at all.
……
As time passed quickly, Li Mu's two papers once again made the physics community feverish.
And it is even more hot than Wilbur's principle of room temperature superconductivity before, after all, this time it is a paper written by Li Mu.
Not to mention, the title of his paper is "On Superconductivity".
Such a paper has to make all physicists around the world express their attention.
Jokes aside, Maxwell's magnum opus on electromagnetism is called "On Electricity and Magnetism", and the title of Einstein's special theory of relativity written in 1905 is "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies".
A paper that dares to come up with such a title not only represents the author's self-confidence, but also represents the importance of the paper.
Of course, in the past few days, the discussion of these two papers has mainly taken place between physicists who are not in the major, or who are slightly inferior in level, and those physicists who have really studied this aspect have not made much remarks.
There is no other reason, it is simply because they are still looking at Li Mu's paper and carefully studying its contents.
These two papers not only involve condensed matter physics, but also involve the theory of dimensional forces, and of course, quantum mechanics is included in it, so it is quite difficult to understand.
If you are not a big bull who has been immersed in physics for many years and has a wide range of knowledge, or is a real physics genius, otherwise, if you want to fully understand these two papers, you can only give up, or you have to prepare a large number of books, and if you don't understand it, you can check it immediately.
After all, not everyone is proficient in multiple cutting-edge directions of physics.
In this way, a few days later, the first big bull finally expressed his opinion on Li Mu's two papers.
This person is none other than George Parisi, who is also one of the first physicists to read Li Mu's two papers.
In the article "The Conjugate Model of Dimensional Forces to Electromagnetic Interaction Forces", this principled paper, through mathematical methods, deduces for us how the fundamental force of dimensional force as a fundamental force promotes the effect of electromagnetic interaction force, and how the conjugate relationship between the two is formed.
From this, we can even deduce how the dimensional force excites the weak interaction force through the electroweak unified theory.
In any case, Lee's paper shows us a deeper working principle of dimensional forces.
Of course, in addition to this paper, Lee's second paper, "On Superconductivity", is a heavyweight paper, and I believe that the importance of this paper in the field of physics will forever be engraved on the monument of history.
In his paper, he cleverly revealed how the internal electrons become unhindered after a piece of material shows superconducting properties, and how superconducting electron pairs are formed, which is a very magical phenomenon, and the same paper also gives the electronic behavior of various superconductors measured by arpes in the superconducting state, the experimental data and the theoretical data are almost completely consistent, in addition, the BCS theory is indeed perfectly embedded, and the BCS theory is in the paper "On Superconductivity". is perfectly explained as part of the theory.
This is obviously not a mathematical coincidence, this is the truth of the universe!
Physicists have always believed that all phenomena in this world can be explained by us in a physical way, whether it is the formation of the universe or the existence of dark matter - of course, under the explanation of dimensional force theory, we are very close to the answer to the question of dark matter and dark energy.
Obviously, since 1911, the problem of superconductivity, which has been hovering over physics, has puzzled our physics community for more than 100 years, and until today, I can probably assert that this problem is a thing of the past.
So, let's cheer for physics! 】
This article by George Parisi quickly spread throughout the physics community.
After all, the physics community has been waiting for a big bull to make a summary evaluation of Li Mu's paper, and now, George Parisi obviously has such qualifications, he has already been interested in condensed matter physics, quantum mechanics, dimensional force theory and other aspects, to a certain extent, since he won the Nobel Prize in physics in 2021, he has become a grand slam player in the physics community.
于是,在他的评价下,李牧的两篇论文,也仿佛有了定论一样,虽然还不算是盖棺定论,但是物理学界的沸腾也随之到来了。
[I really didn't expect that I would be able to witness superconductivity being fully explained in this life, it's unbelievable!] 】
[Oh my God, is superconductivity really something that can be fully explained with just mathematics?] It's totally unbelievable! 】
[You can never imagine the end of what mathematics can explain, but what I want to say is, is superconductivity really something that can be explained in this century? Li Mu traveled from the future, right? 】
[Oh my God, my Ph.D. dissertation!] It's over, it's definitely going to be rewritten! 】
Why rewrite? 】
[Because my doctoral dissertation is completely contrary to Li Mu's dissertation!] It's definitely going to be rewritten! 】
[Don't say it, you're just a doctoral dissertation, we are the superconductivity research group of Cambridge University, and our purpose has always been to try to explain the principle of superconductivity, but now with Li Mu's paper, there is no need for our research group to continue to exist, and our boss is starting to go crazy, thinking about whether to kill Oxford. 】
[We are the superconductivity research group at the University of California, let's go!] We're here to support you spiritually, salute! 】
[Anyway, what about Wilbur's paper from before?] Was his conclusion correct? Why is it that no one is discussing it now.]
[Although I can't understand Li Mu's two papers, I think it's probably wrong, after all, Li Mu said before that Wilbur's theory is incorrect. 】
[Wait for the explanations of the other bigwigs!] 】
In this way, as time slowly passed, ordinary scholars waited for more big bulls to come forward to explain, the people who ate melons maintained the mentality of onlookers, and the news media have taken advantage of the fact that the heat about superconductors has not subsided this year, and began to report on it in a big way.
The Unsolved Problem in Physics: Why Superconductivity Is Superconductivity Solved? 》
"The genius of the century strikes again, and the mystery of superconductivity is finally solved"
Who's Right and Who Is Wrong? Li Mu's 'On Superconductivity'
……
A variety of titles have attracted the attention of many ordinary people, after all, the benefits of superconductivity are closely related to people's lives.
Of course, not long after George Parisi's article was published, more and more other big names began to comment publicly, either in a class or on their personal pages.
And the comments of these big bulls, the conclusions given, are either affirmative, or affirmative with a wait-and-see attitude, as for the negative or completely wait-and-see attitude, it is completely non-existent, because as long as there is a level of bulls, they cannot refute Li Mu's conclusions, not to mention, the conclusions he gave have been verified on superconducting materials such as yttrium, barium, copper, oxygen, niobium, titanium alloy, etc.
The complete unity of theory and practice is, of course, the truth.
Not everyone dares to use theories to negate the conclusions of experiments like Li Mu did at the beginning.
As for Wilbur's paper, of course, it was also mentioned by many of the big bulls, and after reading Li Mu's paper, these big bulls also clearly saw Wilbur's mistakes.
就像李牧之前说的那样,威尔伯的原理中,维度力是直接导致电子对形成的。
In fact, it is indirectly caused by electromagnetic interaction forces.
Although the result is the same, but the process is not the same, that is wrong.
Of course, the most important thing is that Wilbur's theory has a fatal flaw, that is, there is no such thing as a room temperature superconductor in reality to verify his theory, so his theory is inherently impossible to prove, which is why all the bulls have always held a wait-and-see attitude towards his theory.
But now, his theory of room-temperature superconductivity is completely conclusive.
It's just that no one cares about him anymore.
……
“教授,您好,我是勃拉姆斯·李斯特。 ”
"I'm Anthony Alex."
……
In Li Mu's office, in front of him, there were four young people, of course, maybe they were older than him.
And these four people are his four graduate students.
Brahms Liszt, Anthony Alex, Tu Zhizhen, and ...... Li Mu turned his head to look at the fourth person.
The man immediately smiled at him, revealing a mouthful of big silver teeth.
Yuan Siping.
Li Mu shook his head with a smile.
Then he stood up, opened his hand, and greeted: "Welcome four, to Oxford, to Merton College, and to become my students. ”
"Hopefully, we can get along happily in the coming time."
他的四名学生,都连连点头,在李牧的面前,他们都有点拘谨,而袁思平尤其如此。
For the other three students, Li Mu is the person they have admired for a long time, and for Yuan Siping, he used to know Li Mu, and now he gets along with Li Mu again, and his former friend has now become a world-famous genius scholar, a Fields Medal winner, a Nobel Prize candidate, and his own professor, and the pressure he faces is much greater than that of the other three.
Although he could still joke with Li Mu when he was on the phone with Li Mu at the beginning, but now after meeting in reality, that feeling is completely different.
But all in all, the eyes of the four people who looked at Li Mu were full of admiration.
Although Li Mu is young, he is also their teacher after all.
However, just as Li Mu was about to continue to say something, there was a knock on the door of his office.
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and then said to several students: "Let's sit next to it first." ”
Then he said to the door, "Please come in." ”
Then, an old man who looked very knowledgeable walked in.
After seeing Li Mu, he walked up eagerly and stretched out his hand to him: "Professor Li, it's good." ”
"Introduce myself, I'm Joss Winston, editor-in-chief of Nature, and it's an honor to meet you."
Editor-in-chief of Nature?
Next to him, Li Mu's four students were stunned, why did this editor-in-chief come to Li Mu?
Li Mu thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I remember, you called me before." ”
Joss Winston immediately laughed: "I didn't expect Professor Li to remember me, it's great." ”
The last time he called Li Mu, it was for Li Mu's original paper on electrochemistry.
"I still remember when I called you, you hung up my phone because you were in the middle of your graduation defense."
"I remember that, too." Li Mu laughed, and then asked, "I just don't know, Mr. Winston, what is the reason for suddenly coming here today?" ”
Joss Winston spread his hands, "As the editor-in-chief, of course, it's for the sake of the paper. ”
"I drove from London to Oxford, and it took me more than two hours to come here, just to hope that Professor Li, you can vote that article "On Superconductivity" to our "Nature".
"As the editor-in-chief, I guarantee that your paper will be the cover paper of our next journal!"
"Of course, you may not care about the manuscript fee, but we will pay you 50,000 pounds."
Joss Winston had a genuine smile on his face.
On the side, the four graduate students who had just come to Li Mu today were stunned on their faces.
Good guy, the editor-in-chief of Nature, personally drove more than two hours to ask their mentor to submit the paper to Nature?
