Hearing the news that the peer review was successfully passed, Xu Chuan showed a bright smile on his face.
The NS equation has a special meaning to him, and it has been his dream for two generations.
After adjusting his clothes, he bowed slightly to the four people in front of him to express 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 NS equation proof papers.
It took less than twenty days to pass the peer review. This speed is lightning fast when it comes to conjectures on the level of a millennium problem.
Under normal circumstances, even if the certifier successfully passes the report meeting and conquers most people, if everything goes well, it will take at least two months to pass the peer review.
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 needs to be reviewed over and over again to verify that every detail of the paper is correct.
This time, on the one hand, there is only the last step left to prove the NS equation, and all previous related papers have been reviewed.
On the other hand, the mathematical tool to solve this problem, the 'microelement construction method', is so perfect that the peer review team can hardly find its flaws.
Therefore, after discussions between the peer review panel and 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 to him with a smile, gave him a hug, and patted him hard on the back.
"Congratulations, Xu, your paper will be published in the next issue of "New Advances in Mathematics". We will do our best to promote this great success to the mathematics and physics circles to let more people know about it."
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "Thank you."
The proof paper of the NS equation passed the final peer review, and the time came in mid-to-late December.
After two days of rest, the 2019 academician co-optation meeting is about to begin.
Xu Chuan didn't waste any more time, packed his luggage and took the high-speed train to the capital.
The place where I stayed was still the familiar Beihai Hotel, and even the room was the same as before.
According to the hotel manager, this room has become his exclusive room, and no one else will be accommodated after he leaves, no matter how long it takes.
After checking into the hotel and resting for a night, the 2019 co-optation meeting for academicians of the two academies officially started.
In the early morning, when the sky was dark, Xu Chuan had already gotten up and finished washing.
After a simple breakfast in the hotel, we took a special car arranged by the Science and Technology Institute and went all the way to the Great Hall of the People's Republic of China.
When he passed the door check and followed the concierge to the venue, the entire venue was already packed with people.
Seeing the trembling heads in the auditorium, Xu Chuan sighed. He thought he had arrived early. After all, the official meeting only started at ten o'clock, and it was only half past eight now.
As a result, it now seems that he might be one of the last ones to arrive.
Seeing Xu Chuan come in, the etiquette staff waiting in the venue immediately came over: "Professor Xu, your seat is in the third row in the middle of the second row. Do you need me to take you there?"
Xu Chuan nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you."
To be honest, although the venue was crowded with people, he didn't know many people.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he doesn't do much socializing in domestic academic circles. Since returning to China, except for project-related matters, he has almost never been out of Jinling.
In addition, it has only been two years since he became famous and returned to China, so he really doesn't know many people.
At least, he didn't know many of the people who came to attend the lecture on the election of academicians of the two houses of Congress today.
But just because he didn't know other people, it didn't mean that the other people attending the meeting didn't know him.
As Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff into the venue, someone soon came up to him and greeted him warmly.
"Professor Xu. Long time no see." A middle-aged man in a suit came over and greeted warmly with a smile on his face.
Xu Chuan stopped and turned his head to look. The person in front of him felt familiar. After thinking quickly, he realized what he was doing and greeted with a smile: "Long time no see, Dean Liu."
The person greeting him in front of him was Professor Liu Changan, the general manager 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 expand its application and conduct observation experiments on parameter four, he had met Dean Liu several times.
I didn't expect to meet you here today.
"After a few years of separation, I didn't expect Professor Xu to still remember me." Liu Changan replied with a smile and some emotion.
In a few years, the young genius who was already highly regarded by the country during his freshman year has now grown into the number one scholar in the domestic academic world, and even ranks among the top three in the world, not to mention number one.
If we look at his theoretical achievements in mathematics and physics alone, no one would object to saying that he is NO.1.
Two millennium-century problems and a Nobel Prize, involving many fields such as mathematics, physics, astronomy, etc., are important enough to push him to the first place in the world of mathematics today.
Not to mention today's academic community, even throughout history, there are only a handful of people with such achievements.
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "It was thanks to Dean Liu's care that I was at the Southern Yunnan Observatory Observation Array Center."
Liu Changan smiled and said: "Well, it's just a matter between two researchers. Speaking of which, the Betelgeuse observation results you left at the Southern Yunnan Observatory Observation Array Center are of greater help to me."
"If it weren't for this important astronomical achievement of yours, I might not have the chance to stand here today."
Although his senior brother Professor Nan Rendong, the development of domestic astronomy is relatively late. At present, all the close-range astronomical phenomena that can be observed have been divided up by foreign astronomical institutions, and it is still difficult to achieve results.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The achievement of having a companion star within the hydrogen envelope of Betelgeuse is undoubtedly disruptive in the astronomical world.
Although it was made by the young man in front of me, as the general manager of the Observation Array Center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory, he still reaped a lot of dividends.
After all, the results were made by them with the help of observation array equipment, and they could not be avoided no matter what. Coupled with the original results and contributions, he had the opportunity to stand here today.
Otherwise, according to his original estimation, 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 would have a chance to be nominated.
Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Dean Liu is so humble. Everyone sees your contribution to the astronomy industry. The discovery of Betelgeuse is just the icing on the cake."
Liu Changan smiled and said: "When will Professor Xu have time to sit at the observation center again and give guidance on the development route of our domestic astronomy?"
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "I don't dare to take advice as an advice. I will definitely go when I have time."
"Hahaha, okay, then it's settled, I'll definitely come when I have time." Liu Changan laughed and replied, and he didn't take up too much of Xu Chuan's time.
In this conference, not only him, there must be more people who want to say hello to this young national treasure scholar and become familiar with him, so he simply chatted for a few words to leave an impression and then left.
Already.
Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff to his seat. Along the way, many people came up to greet him, and he responded politely to them all.
As time passes, the countdown to the start of the conference begins.
Professors and scholars who participated in this grand event took their seats one after another. Leaders at all levels arrived and took their seats one after another, and the auditorium gradually became quiet.
The red curtain and the bright red podium made the atmosphere of the entire assembly hall dignified and solemn.
As the loud national anthem sounded, all the guests in the auditorium stood up.
When the resounding voice came to an end, the 2019 academician selection report conference for the two academies, which had taken nearly two years of selection and attracted much attention from domestic academic circles, officially kicked off.
Academician Bai Lichun, dean of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and executive director of the academic group, took the lead in taking the stage to deliver the opening speech.
Afterwards, he took the stage to speak, hoping that the newly elected academicians would take practical actions to strengthen the construction of work style and academic style, 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 some impassioned speeches, the conference also entered the final theme, announcing the list of additional academicians of the two academies in 2019.
The list was sorted by the pinyin of the last name of the branch. Under the passionate and steady voice of the person presiding over the conference, the first person to be awarded the list of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
He is Director Chang Jin of the Purple Mountain Astronomical Observatory.
He has made important progress in space detection of dark matter, development of space astronomical observation equipment, and data analysis. He has innovatively developed a new technology method for high-energy cosmic ray electron detection and successfully applied it to the Antarctic long-period balloon detection ATIC experiment.
He made important contributions to the development of astronomy in China.
In the audience, as the first list was announced, warm applause also sounded in the auditorium, and everyone was congratulating this great scholar.
On the other side, in the office of President Liu Gaojun in the Administration Building of NTU, Chen Zhengping, Dean Rong Zhizhuan of the School of Mathematics, and Yu Yongwang, the Dean of the School of Physics, were sitting on the sofa, watching the TV on the wall and chatting.
"It has been almost twenty years, and our school is finally able to produce another young academician." In the office, Liu Gaojun sighed while watching the live broadcast on TV.
Since the year 2000, although NTU has produced academicians, it has not produced any young academicians under the age of 40 for 20 years.
The last time NTU had a young academician under the age of 40 was back in 1997.
On the side, Rong Zhizhuan said with a smile: "I heard that the Academy of Engineering has also reported Professor Xu's list. I wonder if he will have a chance to become an academician of both academies this year?"
Hearing this, Chen Zhengping shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid this will be difficult."
Liu Gaojun took over with a smile: "With his achievements, it is enough to obtain academician qualifications in both the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, but it is probably not possible to obtain academician qualifications from both academies in the same year."
"After all, there is no case where academicians of both academies are awarded to the same person in the same year, unless the above can make an exception."
"But after a few more years, it should be no problem to become an academician of the two academies. By then, we will also have a scholar at the level of an academician of the two academies at Nanjing University."
On the side, Yu Yongwang said with a smile: "It would be better to talk about whether he can get a place in the Academy of Sciences or the Academy of Engineering this time."
Chen Zhengping thought for a moment and said: "It is most likely the Academy of Sciences. Although the artificial SEI film and nuclear waste reuse technology projects he studied are very important, the weight of the Nobel Prize and the Philippine Prize is still greater."
"Look, no matter what, Professor Xu will definitely get one this year."
