In the office, Xu Chuan simply sorted out the information and data he had read, put it aside, and thought about it seriously.
Although he only read it once, with his understanding of the unified theory of strong electricity and his ability in high-energy physics, he was able to understand everything in it in detail.
Judging from the experimental data and analysis process on the surface, there is indeed no problem with these data.
I have to say that the data compiled by Professor Fox Hale is quite perfect.
It is so perfect that it can deceive almost everyone. It is so perfect that people think that the data should be the same.
If the unified theory of strong electricity hadn't involved the unfinished void field theory, of which he had already completed preliminary work on quarks and gluons, and happened to be related to it, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to identify the problems in it.
location.
It would be extremely difficult for a physics team of more than ten people to complete such complete data.
In the meantime, are CERN's board of directors, or the newly appointed chairman this year, and Stanford University behind him, involved?
You know, even with a team of members, it is extremely difficult to complete so much analysis data in less than two months.
Even if Professor Fox creates a mathematical model that can greatly improve the efficiency of analysis, analyzing this data from nearly countless data will still require extremely high computing power.
This computing power is not something that ordinary computers can achieve.
If you want to analyze or even produce these nearly perfect data through raw data analysis in more than a month, it is probably impossible without supercomputing.
CERN has a supercomputer, and Stanford University also has a supercomputer. Fox Haier has joined forces with one of them. In theory, it should be enough, but I don’t know which party.
.......
At the same time, when Xu Chuan was preparing to solve the coupling constant verification work of strong electric symmetry breaking, he made an error.
On the other hand, a large number of news messages "criticizing" the CRHPC organization soon appeared on the Internet.
A dictatorial, stubborn madman, showing off his pitiful authority, completely ignoring other countries in the world...
After the CRHPC collider work arrangement meeting was held, various charges were directly pinned on the heads of the CRHPC agency and Xu Chuan in less than a day.
Representatives from more than one country were interviewed by media reporters and stated that participating in the work arrangement meeting of the CRHPC collider was a wrong decision.
Because China and the CRHPC agencies did not take them seriously at all.
As soon as the relevant news came out, it immediately set off waves of waves in the physics world in this troubled time.
There were constant protests on Facebook, Twitter, blogs and other major websites.
[I just said, China is not so kind. On the surface, it invites and welcomes scholars from other countries to participate in collision experiments. But in fact? They firmly control all experiments in their own hands, and there is no chance at all.
Don’t leave it for others.]
[I don’t understand why a result that has passed the acceptance of the physics community has to spend so precious collision resources to repeatedly verify it. Isn’t it better to use it in other places? Obviously there are still many things that have not been verified in the unified theory of strong electricity.
prophecy.】
[The competition with CERN has caused Professor Xu Chuan to go completely crazy. He is paranoid that there is something wrong with CERN's results. Look, the final result must be a waste of a lot of time and money without any results. 】
[A country that has lagged behind for decades suddenly has a little authority in the academic world. If they don't show off, how can they let the world know that they have such a pitiful authority? 】
[I suggest that physicists from all countries collectively withdraw from CRHPC and ask China to return the funds it has paid!]
【......】
On the Internet, public opinion abounded.
After it was revealed that Xu Chuan had monopolized CRHPC's collision resources due to his arrogance, the relevant public opinion immediately exploded.
Although this is a gossip-worthy matter in itself, it could have become known to everyone around the world in just a day or two. It would have been impossible without the Western media behind it.
As for the news that broke out, those who are most worried about it, apart from the personnel of the CRHPC institution, are probably the scholars in the physics community.
After all, the world finally has a large particle collider with an energy level exceeding 100 Tev. If China excludes scholars from other countries due to this incident, or other countries collectively withdraw from the CRHPC institution, it will be very difficult for the entire physics community.
, is a huge loss.
In the coffee shop outside the CRHPC headquarters building, Professor Arthur McDonald, who came from CERN, was sitting in a window with a beautiful view, holding a cup of cold coffee, with a little worry on his face from time to time.
Look outside.
Professor Arthur McDonald, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015, "discovered neutrino oscillations and thus proved that neutrinos have mass", he and another physicist named 'Kajita Takaaki' jointly
Share the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Today he came over from CERN. In addition to participating in the follow-up collision experiments of CRHPC, he also paid attention to the recent "controversial" incident.
After all, this is not good news for the entire physics community.
Not long after, another scholar quickly opened the door of the coffee shop, looked around and then came over.
"any drinks?"
Seeing the person coming, Professor McDonald asked with a smile.
"Just a cup of coffee." Edward Witten said casually, pulled out his chair and sat down.
"I heard that your student had a dispute with CERN?" Arthur MacDonald asked after ordering a cup of coffee.
Witten: “Are you talking about the article he posted to the arxiv preprint website yesterday?”
"Is there anything else besides this?"
McDonald asked, and then said: "I heard that he disrupted all the original work arrangements of CRHPC and wanted to re-verify the coupling constant of strong electric symmetry breaking."
Hearing this question, Witten nodded and said: "There is such an arrangement."
After hearing the definite answer, Arthur MacDonald sighed and said: "To be honest, I don't think this is a good decision."
Across the way, Edward Witten took the coffee from the waiter without much surprise on his face. He just raised his brows and looked over.
Professor Arthur Macdonald didn't pay attention. He went on to elaborate: "You know, I have been studying at CERN some time ago. I watched the verification of coupling constants for strong electric symmetry breaking bit by bit.
Made.”
"Whether it is the 3sigma confidence results of California Institute of Technology or the 5sigma confidence results of Stanford University, I have detailed experimental data and complete analysis process data, and I have carefully checked it, and indeed no problem has been found."
Witten smiled and said: "Are you trying to persuade him to give up the re-verification of the coupling constant for strong electric symmetry breaking?"
Professor Arthur McDonald shook his head and said: "That's not true. I have read the doubts about the coupling constant of strong electric symmetry breaking. I think it is necessary to conduct more rigorous verification of it."
"only......"
After hesitating for a moment, he finally said: "I'm just worried about CRHPC's current behavior."
"What are you worried about?" Witten asked casually.
Professor Arthur Macdonald said with some sadness: "It is obvious to all that China has been at a disadvantage in the field of basic disciplines for many years. Now they control the world's largest collider, which has brought about an expansion of confidence.
Emotions such as arrogance can bring some disasters to the physics community."
After a pause, he looked at Witten, and then said: "Before coming, I heard that CRHPC held a work arrangement meeting for the CRHPC collider two days ago. However, I heard that at the meeting, he didn't say anything at all.
The next experimental arrangements were decided directly without consulting other people."
"This style of behavior, which is completely incapable of listening to other people's opinions, makes me very worried."
Hearing this, Witten smiled and said nonchalantly: "So it's better to leave the arrangements for the collision experiment to those who don't understand physics at all?"
McDonald shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant."
Taking a deep breath, he continued: "It is undeniable that in the world of physics, and even in the entire academic world, his academic prestige is among the top."
"But to be honest, he is too young, so young that he may fall into the pitfalls that many young people have stepped on, such as stubbornness, excessive self-confidence, or even eagerness to show other countries the power of China? These
It may lead to a dead end in the future research of the CRHPC institution, or it may lead to his entire being in a desperate situation."
"Mr. Einstein once stumbled countless times in experimental physics because of his stubbornness. I don't want him to follow in the same footsteps."
"So I still hope you can persuade him that in the field of experimental physics, he should at least listen to the opinions of some other scholars."
"After all, this is no longer an area that can be developed alone."
Hearing this, Witten couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
Opposite, Professor Arthur MacDonald was stunned.
Witten didn't pay attention. He seemed to be lost in memories. He thought for a while and then said: "If it was someone else, maybe what you said is right."
"But if it's him, maybe it seems to me that you are wrong."
Hearing this, Professor Arthur MacDonald couldn't help frowning and said: "I know he is your student, and he is the best one, but there is no need to be so biased towards him."
Witten smiled, took a sip of coffee, and said with a smile: "That's because you don't understand him."
After a slight pause, he continued: "Actually, you only need to get a little closer to him to know that he has never been a stubborn and conceited scholar who cannot listen to other people's opinions or admit his own mistakes."
"To be honest, I have been on the academic road for decades. I have met countless people, but like him, even after he has reached the pinnacle of academic circles after becoming famous, he is still continuing to learn and research.
I dare not say that he is the only one in the entire academic world who is enterprising and does not give himself any slack, but it can be said that he is the purest one among all those who have these spirits."
"Purely, many times I thought he was a robot, born with no other activities or instructions except learning and academic research."
"Sometimes, I feel that his life is too tiring. Apart from academics and research, there is nothing else in his life."
With that said, Witten calmly looked at his old friend and said: "If you think what I said is problematic or exaggerated, you can choose to stay with CRHPC for a while and have more contact with him."
"At least, I can guarantee that you won't be able to find any fault with him in terms of his attitude toward academics."
After a pause, he continued: "Also, if you have objections to CRHPC's collision arrangements, I think you can ask him for a copy of the collision arrangements after the re-verification of the coupling constants for strong electric symmetry breaking is completed.
look."
"I can guarantee that collision applications submitted by non-Chinese scholars will account for at least 40%, 50%, or even more in the next year."
"And if you have any objections to any of them, you can definitely raise it to him. As long as the reasons are valid, I believe he will consider revising it."
