Chapter 217 The publication of the paper shocked the physics world and shocked the whole world.(1/3)

 Move!
Steven Davis and Seamus Evatt jointly confirmed the correctness of the method for calculating the critical temperature of single element superconducting mentioned in the paper "Superconducting Laws and Critical Constants".
After Magdalena Skipper, editor-in-chief of Nature, received the news, she still hesitated a little bit about whether the paper should be approved, because the content of the paper was so shocking that it would definitely have a huge impact once it was published.
This is not a mathematical theory problem. Even if it is proved to be wrong, it will only affect the authority of the author and the magazine.
Once the 'Law of Superconductivity' is released, it will definitely affect the entire field of physics. By then, many scientific institutions will follow up and conduct research.
Magdalena Skipper thought about it and decided to find another expert for review. She contacted Charles Kane, a very authoritative person in the field of 'topological physics'.
Thirty years ago, there was no such thing as 'topological physics'. Topology only existed as a separate mathematical subject. After Duncan Haldane and his colleagues published the theory of 'superconducting topological phase transition', topology was introduced into condensed matter.
In physics research, the research field of 'topological physics' gradually formed.
It didn't start when Duncan Haldane and his colleagues won the Nobel Prize together, but it started after publishing their research results more than thirty years ago.
It is precisely because of their research in related fields in recent years that Duncan Haldane and his colleagues, who introduced topology into the physics research system, won the Nobel Prize.
Most of the research on ‘topological physics’ was completed in the past two decades.
The first is the study of insulators. A research team from the California Institute of Technology found that some insulators made of heavy elements can generate their own magnetic field through the internal interaction between electrons and atomic nuclei, making the electrons on the surface of the material resistant to transformation.
The "topological protection" state allows them to flow with little resistance.
They later showed that this effect exists in bismuth antimonide crystals, which are known as topological insulators.
This discovery shocked the world of physics.
Edward Witten, a string theory expert at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University, believes that "topological states are far from just bizarre special cases. They appear to offer a wide range of possibilities for discovering unknown effects in nature."
Later, many physicists joined in the research, and a lot of progress was made, such as Edward Witten's topological quantum field theory.
In physics research of practical significance, Charles Kane's team at the University of Pennsylvania has made remarkable achievements. They discovered that in topological materials, electrons and other particles sometimes collectively assume certain states.
In these states, they behave like an elementary particle.
After Charles Kane completed his research, he explained in an introductory interview, "These 'quasiparticle' states may have properties that do not exist in any known elementary particles, and they can even simulate particles that physicists have not yet discovered."
The ‘microscopic morphology within conductors’ currently being studied by Wang Hao is very similar to the results of Charles Kane.
Charles Kane is not a guest editor of Nature magazine, but Magdalena Skipper must have found the right person when she found him.
Charles Kane was drinking coffee and checking his email in his office when he received the news.
In fact, he also has some uncertainties about his research.
Many people believe that his research on "special forms of particles" may win the Nobel Prize in Physics in the future.
Only Charles Kane himself knew that he only made corresponding deductions based on experiments, rather than confirming the real existence of the "special form of particles".
In addition, his research is said to be very influential, but it is only in the field of 'topological physics'.
This is a brand new field that has not yet received much recognition, because the research involves a lot of theoretical derivation, and it is difficult to verify whether it is correct or not.
"Even if it is verified, it will only be a continuation of topological physics research and win the Nobel Prize?"
Charles Kane shook his head mockingly. He opened an email from the editorial department of Nature magazine and noticed that he was invited to review the manuscript.
Nature magazine?
Review?
Charles Kane subconsciously wanted to refuse. He didn't like reviewing manuscripts because research in the same industry would involve a lot of theoretical derivation, and even he couldn't guarantee accuracy.
He was about to write a rejection email when he noticed that the review invitation was specially marked--
The paper involves the study of "special forms of particles" in conductors. It is very similar to your research, Mr. Kane, and is a further expansion. It also deduces the "law of elemental superconductivity".
"It includes the study of 'special forms of particles'? And the 'law of elemental superconductivity'?"
"what?"
Charles Kane was immediately interested, and he immediately turned his refusal into agreement.
After the email was sent, he only waited for more than ten minutes before he received the specific content of the paper, titled "Superconducting Laws and Critical Constants."
Charles Kane downloaded the paper, opened it, and shouted to his assistant, "Get me a hamburger and a cup of black coffee."
The burgers and coffee were quickly delivered.
While eating, Charles Kane read the contents of the paper carefully.
After reading half a page, he couldn't eat anymore. He forgot to swallow the hamburger in his mouth, and stared at the content on the screen with his eyes wide open.
New geometry!
Semi-topological!
A special microscopic form that directly determines the critical temperature of superconducting elements!
Where is the further expansion of the ‘special form of particles’?
This is a major achievement that surpasses the research results of "special forms of particles" by dozens or even hundreds of times, can lead "topological physics" to glory, and once again set off a global upsurge in superconducting research!

Saikai University.
The communication gravity project has completed a phased research, and everyone in the laboratory is summarizing, reporting, writing papers, etc.
Wang Hao submitted his theoretical research to Nature magazine, and others also had to write some related papers. Factory 244 had to write a detailed experimental report on the progress of AC gravity.
This series of experiments was conducted for the purpose of theoretical research. In the process, the direction of AC gravity was also improved. The replacement of low-temperature superconducting materials directly increased the intensity of the AC gravity field, up to more than 24%, which is absolutely amazing.
Results.
The only regret is that no ‘strange’ phenomenon was discovered.
Wang Hao hoped to discover the special phenomenon that "the AC gravity field strength before the superconducting critical temperature is higher than that in the superconducting state", but in the end he was not able to achieve it.
The so-called special phenomenon is like the process of pinching an orange with force. Before the orange is pinched and exploded, the intensity of the juice sprayed from one side may be higher than that of the entire juice after the orange is pinched and exploded.
As long as special phenomena can be produced, it will play a great role in subsequent research. It can directly find the direction of subsequent research and development, and greatly strengthen the theoretical content, so as to explore the superconducting mysteries of further molecular levels and even complex organic molecules.
.
"But there is no special phenomenon, which is also a result, indicating that single element superconductivity probably does not exist." Wang Hao thought.
After completing a stage of the project, he was relatively free and had time to 'move' with others.
The Mason Mathematics Laboratory moved to a newly built building. He and others were busy all day, just packing up his things and moving to the office in the new building.
Afterwards, the Mason Number Laboratory held a special ceremony to celebrate the official opening of the new laboratory building.
After three busy days, the laboratory gradually calmed down, and all the people in the laboratory moved to work in the new building. Then the first internal meeting for the opening of the laboratory was held.
The first meeting was still about development, projects, and work.
All researchers are required to participate.
It was also the first time to use the conference hall. Everyone felt fresh and went in very early to wait.
Zhang Zhiqiang, Qi Xiao, Zheng Yaojun and Luo Dayong get together, and he is the center of several people. "I feel like the lab has officially begun when the laboratory is moved here."
"Today's meeting will discuss projects. If you really want to talk about projects, you still have to rely on me!" Zhang Zhiqiang said, patting his chest. "Professor Qi and I wrote a report together and applied for a Science Foundation project. It is estimated that we can apply for a million
The above expenses.”
"There has been news over there that we are allowed to attend the review meeting."
"To be honest, the laboratory relies on Wang Hao, but I am the one who runs the project before and after it. With this project with a funding of more than one million, there will be no problem at least this year and next year."
"For laboratory projects, you still have to rely on me!"
Qi Xiao and Zheng Yaojun nodded.
Zhang Zhiqiang's work is noticed. Whether it is work in the laboratory or project application issues, he is very active.
Luo Dayong curled his lips vigorously.
Zhu Ping also curled her lips.
They have long been accustomed to Zhang Zhiqiang's tendency to be pushy and show off.
Zhu Ping was invited here by Wang Hao. She is not a researcher at the Mason Mathematics Laboratory. He just invited her to participate in the project and did not know what she was going to do.
At 7:50, Wang Hao arrived.
To be continued...
