Chapter 684: Wouldnt it be a waste of time if we didnt dig some holes for the Japanese? (Part 2)
"Good morning, Sakata-kun."
"Good morning, Suzuki-san."
"Good morning, Senior Haoji..."
He enthusiastically greeted the seniors who passed by each other, and the look on Suzuki Atsushi's face seemed a bit high-spirited...or in other words, arrogant.
after all.....
When he was 15 years old, he was admitted to the Department of Theoretical Physics of Neon Kyoto University and became an undergraduate student. This year... when he was 16 years old, he became an intern at the Institute of Basic Physics of Kyoto University. Most of them
Everyone, like Atsushi Suzuki, is full of hope for the future.
such a pity.....
His closest family members all became acquaintances in the Hiroshima nuclear bombing, and he could not see the day when he could honor his family...
But soon.
Atsushi Suzuki put aside the slight sadness in his heart and returned his attention to today's task.
Well, it’s called a task, but it’s actually just a very simple thing:
Pick up some of the latest journals from the mailroom at Kyoto University and bring them back to the Institute of Theoretical Physics - it's that easy.
After all, although many people think that Suzuki Atsushi is very talented in theoretical physics, he is only a 16-year-old sophomore after all, and it is impossible to shoulder too many research tasks.
"Huh huh huh~~"
Atsushi Suzuki whistled a Showa-flavored ditty and walked skillfully through two forest paths, and soon came to a building about four stories high.
This building looks a bit old. The mottled exterior walls are covered with ivy-like vines, and the overall building has some European style.
Although this building is a bit "old", it can be regarded as one of the holy places of Kyoto University today:
It is the Institute of Basic Physics at Kyoto University!
As early as World War II, Plan F, codenamed after the initials of nuclear fission, was born in this building. The entire plan was led by the famous neon nuclear physicist Bunze Arakatsu.
However, the centrifugal separator built by Huang Shengwen Ce was far from reaching the rotation speed of 100,000 times per minute. In addition, Neon's domestic supply of uranium ore was too small, which led to the final failure of Plan F.
When many students from Kyoto University mention this, they often sigh, how wonderful it would be if Arakatsu Wence had made a breakthrough in technology back then...
To know.
At that time, another Neon physicist Yoshio Nishina had successfully developed the Cockcroft-Walton particle accelerator. Neon was also the second country besides the other side of the sea to develop accelerators.
Many people believe that if the Navy and Army can cooperate with each other, Neon may achieve a breakthrough in nuclear weapons.
So I blame those damn Army Red Deers for being so petty...
Of course.
These students from Kyoto University would never have thought that even if Nishina Yoshio could cooperate with Arakatsu Bunsei, Neon's lack of raw materials for nuclear weapons would make it impossible for them to develop nuclear weapons:
At the end of 1943, Neon sent two submarines to Germany to pick up uranium ore. They picked up the uranium ore in Kiel, Germany, and then returned to Neon from the Atlantic via the coast of South Iceland.
Since the neon code had been deciphered by the other side of the sea at that time, one of the two submarines was eventually sunk by the other side of the sea on the way.
Therefore, from the beginning to the end of the entire World War II period, the Neon people actually did not obtain any nuclear materials.
etc.
That doesn’t seem right, does it?
After all, the people across the sea actually gave the materials for two atomic bombs to the Neon people, but the Neon people didn't catch them...
His eyes returned to reality.
all in all.
The Institute of Basic Physics of Kyoto University under the filter of war finally took on a certain "tragic" color, so it became taller in the eyes of many people.
Then in recent years.
With the arrival of Hideki Yukawa, the first neon person to win the Nobel Prize, this building has taken on another kind of holy land-like brilliance.
At least.....
Every time Atsushi Suzuki comes here, he seems to be on a pilgrimage.
After arriving outside the institute.
Atsushi Suzuki walked through the door skillfully and entered the building from the stairs near the left to outside an office on the second floor.
Dong dong dong——
Atsushi Suzuki held several volumes of periodicals and magazines and banged his head on the door:
"Private Marseille! I am Atsushi Suzuki, and the paper Professor Yukawa needs has been retrieved!"
After a while.
A rather energetic voice came from inside the house:
"Please come in."
Seeing this, Atsushi Suzuki quickly freed up his left hand, held the doorknob and pushed open the door.
Inside the door is a very open office, covering an area of about one hundred square meters to the naked eye. A small door against the wall on the right indicates that the actual layout of the room is larger than it appears to the naked eye.
The floor of this office is covered with a thick red carpet, and there is a European-style fireplace next to it. There is an extremely large desk directly opposite the entrance.
There was a stick of incense burning near the fireplace, and with the dim light, it looked like a caesarean section...ah, bah, this is so unlucky.
I only see this moment.
Three neon men of different ages were sitting in this room. The three of them were sitting around the desk, drinking tea and chatting.
Atsushi Suzuki's eyes rolled slightly - before he left the office, there was only one person in the room.
The one sitting in the middle of the three is a round-faced man with some bald spots. He looks somewhat similar to Puyi, the last emperor of China. He has a slender neck and wide ears. He is clearly Yukawa Hideki, the number one person in the world of neon physics today.
After becoming the first neon person to win the Nobel Prize in 1949, Yukawa Hideki's popularity in the neon country was unparalleled for a while. In the words of later generations, he was somewhat "broken."
I don’t know how many neon girls want to marry Hideki Yukawa and have children, a true national idol.
After all, at this time, Neon was still in the post-war castration period, and the economy was not prosperous enough to later claim to be able to buy across the sea from the bubble period. Both economic and cultural aspects were in a sluggish state.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In this case, Yukawa Hideki won the Nobel Prize...
How should I put it? It is a bit similar to Liu Xiang and Yao Ming in China in the past few years, who were truly national figures.
Of course.
Idols are idols.
Now Hideki Yukawa is the academic mentor of Atsushi Suzuki. The long-term contact has resulted in Atsushi Suzuki’s filter for Hideki Yukawa being less mythical than ordinary people.
For example, in later generations, everyone knows that the academician boss is very awesome, but if the professor in your school who teaches you every day is an academician, then you will naturally feel that the distance between you and the academician is greatly shortened.
Maybe when you write a novel, you will make a professor joke in the book...
Therefore, facing the national idol in the neon physics world at this time, Suzuki Atsushi could still maintain a basic calm.
He quickly came to Yukawa Hideki, carefully placed the journal he had retrieved on the table, and said respectfully:
"Teacher, I've got all the journals you asked for."
Yukawa Hideki nodded when he heard this and didn't say much.
This neon physicist's personality is as extreme as his political stance. He usually has a sullen face and is extremely taciturn when chatting with others.
Occasionally when speaking, he also likes to raise his chin and look at others sideways. To be honest, he is a bit unworthy of a beating - this can also be seen from many images that have survived in later generations.
In the later generations when Xu Yun traveled through time, many neon people actually analyzed the character of Yukawa Hideki. After all, he was one of the most famous physicists in the history of neon science.
At that time, many neon scholars believed that Yukawa Hideki's character was so bad largely because his grandfather, Koma Tachibana, was a samurai guarding Wakayama Castle before the Meiji period and pursued the so-called "Bushido" spirit.
In addition, Yukawa Hideki has been serving the Neon military during the war, and the high-intensity work pressure has also infected him with the cold personality of a "showa man".
Yukawa Hideki's cold expression made a relatively young man next to him slightly uncomfortable. In order to diffuse the atmosphere, he quickly glanced at Suzuki Atsushi and asked proactively:
"Yukawa-san, may I ask who this young man is..."
Facing this middle-aged man, Yukawa Hideki's attitude was much better, and he forced a smile on his face:
"Xiao Chai-san, this is a student I just accepted this year. His name is Suzuki Atsushi. He has just turned 16 years old."
Seeing this, the middle-aged man looked at Suzuki Atsushi again and praised:
"You are only sixteen years old. What a pinch for Sri Lanka..."
Atsushi Suzuki scratched his hair with some restraint.
Then Yukawa Hideki didn't know what he was thinking. When he saw this, he said to Suzuki Atsushi:
"Suzuki-san, you are quite lucky today. Let me introduce these two seniors to you."
"The person who was talking to you just now is Professor Masatoshi Oshiba, and the person on the other side is Mr. Shinichiro Tomonaga. Both of them are well-known neon physicists. Their names must be familiar to you, right?"
Ochai Masajun?
Shinichiro Tomonaga?
After hearing these two names, Suzuki Atsushi's heart immediately jumped.
He quickly took a step back and bowed at a 90° angle:
"Mr. Xiaochai, Mr. Tomonaga, I have long admired your name!"
Although the future Suzuki Atsushi will become a very shameless old bastard and even acted as a clown at the rabbits' dark matter press conference, his respect at this time is really not fake.
after all.....
The reputations of Masatoshi Oshiba and Shinichiro Tomonaga are indeed worthy of his awe.
From a more objective perspective, Kochai Masajun’s resume is actually very inspiring:
He was unable to lift his right arm due to polio since he was a child. When he was in college, he was disliked by his mentor Yamauchi Kyohiko, so he had to work part-time to maintain his studies.
Then he successfully obtained a master's degree from the University of Tokyo 8 years ago, and obtained a doctorate in physics from the University of Rochester two years later.
Nowadays, Kochai Masajun is well-known in neon country, and his achievements in the field of neutrinos are also quite surprising.
According to historical development.
He would win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2002, and made a truly shocking speech:
[The wind can blow away the entire desert, but it cannot shake an ant. The ants climbed ashore from the dark and humid underground rivers, then climbed over countless mountains and ridges, without stopping for decades, and finally stood in front of you - this is me
life.]
In addition, Atsushi Suzuki...or what everyone at the scene didn't know.
In a few years, when Atsushi Suzuki gets his master's degree, he will become a disciple of Masatoshi Oshiba...
Masajun Kochai has not expressed his political stance much in his life, and his attitude towards China is not too bad to be honest - to be fair, this situation is often the norm. It does not mean that they are pro-China or pro-China.
Anti-China, but most scholars actually do not express their political demands clearly.
There are so many academicians in China, but few of them have clearly said this: "Little Japanese devils, I am the eighteenth generation of ancestors"...
His eyes returned to reality.
In addition to Masatoshi Oshiba, Shinichiro Tomonaga, another person present at the scene, is also a big shot.
even.....
From the perspective of the entire history of physics, his achievements are even higher than those of Yukawa Hideki.
Based on his contribution to quantum electrodynamics alone, even Yang Lao cannot say that he is definitely better than Tomonaga Shinichiro.
Together with Feynman and Schwinger, he completed the foundation of quantum electrodynamics and is considered a top theoretical physicist.
Although these people present do not know the achievements of Shinichiro Tomonaga, judging from the current situation, he is likely to become the second neon person to win the Nobel Prize in a few years.
Then Yukawa Hideki glanced at Atsushi Suzuki, pointed to a chair next to him and said:
"Suzuki, you should go and rest first."
After hearing this, Atsushi Suzuki bowed again:
"Hai!"
After Suzuki Atsushi walked aside obediently.
Yukawa Hideki reached out and pulled several journals in front of him, and said to Koshiba Masajun and Tomonaga Shinichiro:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Oshiba-san, Tomonaga-san, and Professor Kishida's laboratories should be ready for a while. Instead of sitting here waiting, why not read the latest articles?
How’s the paper?”
"I heard that Professor Abediya of Columbia University has made a big breakthrough in bound states. This time, Nature even gave him a special page recommendation."
Hearing this, Masajun Koba and Shinichiro Tomonaga looked at each other, and they both nodded at the same time:
"As you wish."
At the same time, Shinichiro Tomonaga, Hideki Yukawa and Masatoshi Oshiba are all members of the Kyoto School... which is a faction of Eastern history. This school was first founded by Kitaro Nishida, Gen Tanabe, Sanjuro Tomonaga, Seiichi Hatano, and Keiji Nishitani.
Represented by professors from Kyoto University, many branches such as the Kyoto School of Philosophy, the Kyoto School of Modern Economics, and the Kyoto School of Physics were derived.
The purpose of the three people gathered here today was to visit the laboratory of another physicist of the Kyoto School, Toyo Kishida. This Toyo Kishida had a cousin named Fumio Kishida, who later paid tribute to the "Masakaki" in the public toilet.
His stupid biological father.
Again.
Almost all neon physicists of this period participated in the war, so they or their descendants usually have inextricable connections with certain people.
Kishida Toyo's experiment today required several hours of debugging, so the three of them went to Yukawa Hideki's office to rest.
Then at the suggestion of Yukawa Hideki.
The three of them quickly picked out a journal and started reading it.
Yukawa Hideki is reading the famous "Nature" magazine. As he said before, this issue of "Nature" contains something that he is very interested in:
It is said that Professor Asan of Columbia University made a breakthrough in the conjugate equation of bound states.
The concept of continuous bound state has a certain linkage trend with the Yukawa coupling proposed by Yukawa in a low-energy and effective scenario. That is, the Yukawa coupling has a certain linkage trend. Therefore, in recent years, including Yukawa himself, the bound state has been regarded as a very critical
research direction.
But this time.
Yukawa Hideki just glanced at the paper a few times, and then threw the journal on the table with some annoyance:
"idiot!"
Oshiba Masajun on the side couldn't help but put his head over and asked Yukawa Hideki:
"Yukawa-san, what happened?"
Hearing this, Yukawa Hideki took a deep breath, pointed at the journal in front of him and said:
"Hagaya Road... Damn Professor Asan, he dared to post the bound state results to "Nature" without even canceling out the non-zero components... This is something even an undergraduate like Atsushi Suzuki can't do
Mistake!"
"Are these external review editors of Nature blind? They can actually publish this kind of paper - and make me look forward to it so much!"
"Axiba Senimufa Q..."
Looking at Yukawa Hideki who was a little angry.
Xiao Chai Changjun couldn't help but take out the journal and read it a few times, and soon shook his head.
Although his quality is several levels better than Yukawa Hideki's, he can barely understand Yukawa Hideki's thoughts.
be honest.
Papers of this quality are not even in the general journal of Nature - after all, the physics world is still in the development stage at this time, and the subatomic level framework is destined to produce many weird papers.
but.....
The quality of this paper is definitely not worthy of the big recommendation in Nature, let alone the momentum it started to create in the industry half a month in advance.
Of course.
It is not surprising that this kind of situation occurs in this current situation.
After all, it has been more than ten years since the end of World War II, and many of the scientists across the sea who were carved up from Germany are old or even dead.
Therefore, the Asan group gradually began to make moves and wanted to replace the Germans or Jews in the physics world.
Therefore, it is estimated that this paper is not just the personal wish of the professor named Abitiya, but that Asan’s group is behind the promotion.
Then Kochai Masajun shook his head, temporarily dispelling these thoughts to the back of his mind.
He didn't care much about these roads across the sea. After all, no matter how fiercely Asan fought with the Germans, it had nothing to do with neon people like him, right?
So he turned to look at Shinichiro Tomonaga, preparing to change the topic to suppress Yukawa Hideki's anger:
"Senior Ichiro, have you found anything interesting?"
Masatoshi Koshiba noticed that Shinichiro Tomonaga was reading "Physical Review Letters". If he remembered correctly, this should be a new publication that was published just over two years ago.
In addition, "Physical Review Letters" is still a weekly magazine, which is an extremely novel update model at the moment, and its status is not very high in the minds of more traditional physicists like Masatoshi Oshiba.
In Xiaochai Masajun's opinion.
The update cycle of journals is the same as that of writing. Four thousand words per day is the right way to go, but anything like thirty thousand words per day is heresy!
But what surprised Kochai Masajun a little bit.
Faced with his question, Tomonaga Shinichiro seemed not to hear it, staring closely at the "Physical Review Letters" in front of him.
Xiaochai Changjun couldn't help but have a question mark on his face:
"?"
What's going on with Shinichiro Tomonaga?
Something wrong with your ears?
Or is it that the "Physical Review Letters" brought back by Atsushi Suzuki is actually a fake, and its real content is "Playboy" with a nude portrait of Heisenberg printed on it?
So Koba Masajun couldn't help but cough again, and pushed Shinichiro Asagi:
"Senior Ichiro..."
This time Shinichiro Tomonaga finally came back to his senses. He shook his body as if he had woken up from a certain state. After a few seconds, he looked at Masajun Kochai:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Xiao Chai-san?"
Xiao Chai Changjun glanced at the journal in front of him:
"Hey...Senior Ichiro, what are you looking at so fascinated by?"
Shinichiro Tomonaga's expression was still a little dazed at this time. Hearing this, he subconsciously let out a sigh, and then his face became solemn:
"Xiao Chai-san, Yukawa-san, something big happened."
Then, without waiting for Masatoshi Oshiba and Hideki Yukawa to speak, he pushed the "Physical Review Letters" he was reading in front of them:
"Look at this quickly - look at it together."
Hearing this, Masajun Koba and Hideki Yukawa looked at each other, and both of them saw some doubts in each other's eyes.
However, Tomonaga Shinichiro's prestige and seniority lay here, so the two of them got together and read the journal without asking any questions.
The content of this volume of "Physical Review Letters" is entirely in English, but for Hideki Yukawa, who has served as professors at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and Columbia University, there is no difficulty in reading English.
As soon as he touched the volume "Physical Review Letters", Yukawa Hideki was keenly aware of its thickness:
"So thin, special issue?"
Chaonaga Shinichiro nodded, and raised the palm of his sound left hand upward, signaling Yukawa Hideki to continue reading.
Seeing this, Yukawa Hideki's face also showed some interest, and he quickly read the content of the paper in neon language:
"Woof woof woof woof woof..."
At the beginning, Yukawa Hideki's reading speed was very fast, and his speaking speed even exceeded Oshiba Masatoshi's understanding speed.
But less than half a minute.
Yukawa Hideki's speed dropped a lot.
Another minute or so passed.
Yukawa Hideki immediately shut his mouth and devoted himself to reading the paper.
Masatoshi Oshiba and Shinichiro Tomonaga who were beside him didn't say much. Instead, they surrounded Yukawa Hideki on the left and right like two generals, and read the contents of the paper with him.
See this situation.
Atsushi Suzuki couldn't help but have a little curiosity in his eyes.
What did Professor Yukawa and the others discover?
It seems that this posture is not as simple as some several-page paper...
Then, with Suzuki Atsushi waiting, nearly an hour passed before Yukawa Hideki and the three of them exhaled a breath of turbidity.
"..."
After a few seconds of silence, Yukawa Hideki couldn't help but look at Tomonaga Shinichiro:
"Mr. Chaonaga, Xiao Chaisang, what do you think?"
Xiao Chai Changjun touched his chin and suddenly thought of something:
"Yukawa-san, which university across the sea published this paper?"
"Yale? Stanford? Or MIT?"
"Across the sea?"
When Yukawa Hideki heard this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his lips, and he turned the paper back to the cover:
"Xiao Chaisang, take a look at the signature and organization of the paper - look carefully."
Koba Masajun was stunned for two seconds. He held the back of Yukawa Hideki's chair with one hand and leaned forward slightly towards the table.
A few seconds later.
Ochai Masajun's incredible exclamation suddenly filled the room:
"Lu Guangda? Zhao Zhongyao? Chinese Academy of Sciences... This is a Chinese paper? How is this possible?"
Compared to Oshiba Masajun's surprise, Yukawa Hideki seemed very calm at this time, or in other words, he was actually surprised:
"Xiao Chaisang, didn't you notice it when you were reading the paper?"
"Although the translation of this paper can be said to be honest and elegant, some differences from standard English can still be seen in some of the context and conceptual descriptions - these places have obvious Eastern semantics."
"So from the beginning I discovered something special about the author of this paper. It is not from Europe, nor from across the sea, but from our..."
"Neighbor."
Xiaochai Changjun was silent:
"..."
These days, China's theoretical physics community still has a very loud brand name, but again, the so-called brand name actually refers to the international... To put it bluntly, it means the reputation of Chinese physicists across the sea.
Due to hardware and blockade problems in China's local physics community, basically no one will take a direct look at them.
After Zhao Zhongyao and others returned to China, Xiaochai Changjun and others only paid attention to it for a short period of time, and then turned their attention to other things.
This is just like when the top football superstars of later generations go to the Saudi Arabian Football League or Major League Baseball to retire when they are old, the public opinion of the entire society will drop drastically in an instant.
As a result, I didn’t expect that China’s local physics community, which I haven’t seen for a while, would actually come up with such a shocking paper?
That's right.
Shocking.
This is Masajun Kochai’s definition of this paper.
After all, his main research direction is fundamental particles, and his knowledge of this aspect is much higher than ordinary people.
In Xiaochai Masajun's opinion.
This paper is likely to occupy a place in the history of theoretical physics, and many of its concepts were obviously inspiring for Masatoshi Oshiba's own research.
For example, the scalar bosons and vector bosons mentioned in the paper.
Before reading this article, the theoretical physics community had always had an unexplainable problem:
The spontaneous breaking of the overall symmetry of the particle will lead to the emergence of three Goldstone bosons in the corresponding theory...that is, the Goldstone boson, and there will also be a non-zero vacuum expectation value.
But the problem is that the massless vector field or gauge field only has two transverse components. If calculated according to the vector field, in reality there will be at most two Goldstone bosons.
It has been 11 years since this problem first appeared, and it has been six or seven years since it was officially discussed as a topic.
The result was unexpected.
Zhao Zhongyao and his colleagues actually introduced the concept of scalar boson in this paper, which gave a quite reasonable explanation to this problem.
Although this explanation is purely a mathematical derivation step, it is not difficult to judge based on Masatoshi Ochaba's ability that the accuracy of this derivation process is infinitely close to 100%.
"What a pinch for Sri Lanka..."
And at the same time that Kochai Masajun sighed.
Yukawa Hideki on the side quietly frowned:
"Qiaodou sack...there seems to be something wrong with this value."
