Chapter 384 Solving another millennium problem first
"Yes, we are trying to unify the strong interaction force and the electromagnetic interaction force."
"I think this is probably the only way we can create materials that can resist neutron bombardment."
Looking at the mixed expressions of everyone present, Lin Xiao just smiled lightly and said: "At least in terms of the difficulty of implementation, the two should be considered equal."
Listening to Lin Xiao's words, the researchers from the plasma institute present fell into silence.
Which of them has not been working on nuclear fusion for many years and researching it for many years?
But I still feel a little bit speechless about Lin Xiao's... unbridled thoughts.
Indeed, it sounds like the two difficulties are probably comparable. Although human scientists have found a way to unify the electromagnetic interaction force and the weak interaction force, they still feel helpless when it comes to the free strong interaction force.
And if it is really possible to unify the strong interaction force, not only would this be a heavyweight breakthrough for the physics community, but it might also have some significance for the new material proposed by Lin Xiao?
But what if it doesn’t make sense?
Finally, Academician Li Gang in front of Lin Xiao finally spoke.
"Academician Lin, how can you be sure that after truly realizing the unification of the electroweak and strong forces, it will help our problems? After all, although we have unified the electroweak interaction force, how can we apply this effect?
, still needs some development, and if we unify the strong interaction, there should still be a certain distance in how we use it, right?"
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "This is a good question."
Everyone present immediately fixed their eyes on Lin Xiao. If he said this, could there be some method?
However, the next moment, Lin Xiao just made a strategic move and leaned on the back of the chair. Then he simply spread his hands and said, "I don't know."
Everyone: "..."
They heard Lin Xiao say something very similar before, as if they could succeed if they solved this problem. They thought Lin Xiao was at least a little sure, but this is the result?
Looking at everyone's expressions, Lin Xiao just smiled and said: "Okay everyone, I know everyone's doubts, but in fact, there is no need for you to have this doubt. After all, you have to study the three powers of electricity, weakness and strength.
I am the one who is unified, and of course you can study with me, and I still welcome you to join."
The people present looked at each other, but in the end no one came forward and said they wanted to join Lin Xiao's research.
Are you kidding me, going to study the unification of strong interaction forces in a grand unified theory?
They still don't have the courage to study in this area. In any case, most of them are from nuclear physics. Nuclear physics mainly studies some contents related to atomic nuclei, but the research on grand unified theory is still relatively less comprehensive.
.
If you really want to study a grand unified theory, you must at least be an all-rounder. You must know everything from quantum mechanics to nuclear physics, and you must know a lot.
Moreover, even if he really understands everything, the difficulty is still a bit too great. After all, Einstein was pursuing this thing at the beginning, but even before his death, he had not made any major achievements in this regard.
Achievements, even the unified theory of weak electricity, were only established after his death.
All in all, a grand unified theory is a common dream among researchers in the physics community, but precisely because it is a dream, it is like the moon in a mirror, elusive and elusive.
Seeing that no one came forward, Lin Xiao smiled and was not surprised. There were probably not many physicists studying the unified theory in the world, so there was no need to expect that just one word from him would attract others to join this project.
among the ranks.
Then he spread his hands and said calmly: "In this case, you don't have to worry anymore. You can continue to try your direction. I will go to this remote corner to try and explore the way for everyone."
"No matter what, we want to solve the problem of nuclear fusion. If we don't take a few more paths, God knows whether we can succeed in the end?"
Seeing Lin Xiao's expression that was not at all worried about the difficult road ahead, Li Gang couldn't help but express his admiration.
"Academician Lin is indeed Academician Lin. Perhaps when solving problems that seemed extremely difficult to others in the past, Academician Lin tried with this mentality at the beginning, right?"
He lamented: "Just like room-temperature superconductors, before this, who would have thought that room-temperature superconductors could be born so quickly?"
"It's a pity, it's a pity. If I could be younger, I would definitely learn this spirit from Academician Lin."
Lin Xiao smiled heartily and said, "It's not too late to learn now."
"As I get older, I am not so energetic anymore."
Li Gang shook his head, then stood up, patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder, and said: "Then, Academician Lin, I leave this problem to you. No matter whether this problem is helpful to the final solution of our problem, at least, if it can
Seeing that the strong interaction forces can also be unified is good news for those of us who study physics."
Lin Xiao smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's do that."
"Um."
Li Gang nodded, and suddenly pointed to a mathematical formula written by Lin Xiao on the draft paper, and asked: "By the way, Academician Lin, what does the Yang-Mills gauge field equation you wrote here mean?
"
"List it as a goal in my next research."
"Target? You mean..." Li Gang said with some disbelief: "Could it be that even the existence of the Yang-Mills gauge field and the mass interval hypothesis have become one of your goals?"
Lin Xiao shrugged and said, "Yes, and this is also a place that cannot be avoided."
"The mass gap problem of the Yang-Mills gauge field is the theoretical key to understanding the strong interaction in quantum chromodynamics."
"If we want to unify the strong interaction with other forces, we must first understand what the strong interaction is. If we can't even do this, there is no need to talk about the next few steps."
Everyone present suddenly felt dizzy again.
It is necessary to unify the strong interaction force, and it is necessary to solve the mass gap problem of the Yang-Mills gauge field. The former is a common dream of physicists, and the latter is a laurel-like problem in the world of mathematical physics, which is different from the previous one.
The NS equation problems are all parallel problems, and at the same time, they are also among the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium.
Yes, the problem of the existence of the Yang-Mills gauge field and the mass gap is also one of the Millennium Problems, and it is also the only problem in the Millennium Problem that belongs to particle physics.
Solving this problem is related to the mathematical foundation of theoretical physics. Once solved, it will mean the emergence of a mathematically complete quantum gauge field theory. In addition, as Lin Xiao said, it is very important for understanding.
The meaning of interaction forces.
The strong interaction refers to the force acting between hadrons. It is the strongest of the four known fundamental forces in the universe. It is the force that maintains the stability of the atomic nucleus. Similarly, it is also the force connecting quarks.
However, in the process of understanding the strong interaction force, physicists are unable to find a reliable approximation method due to the lack of a "small parameter" in physics. Therefore, the "small parameter" of the mass gap has become a
Ways to help understanding.
Therefore, another millennium problem has emerged, blocking scientists' way out. Therefore, it is probably for this reason that the existence and mass gap of the Yang-Mills gauge field were chosen.
Among the seven millennium problems.
Whether it is this millennium problem or the subsequent problem of unifying the strong interaction and the other two major interactions, any one of these two is enough to make 99% or more of physicists shy away.
As a result, Lin Xiao now said that he would launch a charge on these two issues?
Lin Xiao chuckled: "Relax, relax, it's not a big deal. It's just another millennium problem. I've already solved two of them. One more is not too much, and one less is not too much."
Listening to Lin Xiao's Versailles-like words, everyone present immediately realized, yes, the person in front of me has solved two millennium problems, so doesn't it mean he can't solve another problem?
Although, this problem may sound more complicated, but if it is really done, how can it be simple?
At least for the researchers at these plasma institutes present, they dare not say that the two problems that Lin Xiao has proved are simpler than the Yang-Mills gauge field problem.
At this time, Li Gang also smiled and said: "I almost forgot about this. After all, I am Academician Lin, the hunter of the Millennium Award. I think there is basically no problem."
Lin Xiao was stunned: "Where did this title come from?"
Li Gang smiled and said: "Hasn't this been spread a long time ago? You have solved two big prize problems, aren't you the Millennium Prize hunter? The prize is two million US dollars."
Lin Xiao looked speechless.
He has never seen the two million US dollar bonus.
Although he had his own reasons for refusing, after all, it was two million US dollars. If converted into RMB, he could at least buy a house of over 100 square meters in the third ring road in Shangjing.
Don't give it up for free, it's a pity that he can only choose not to give it up now.
However, these people in front of him couldn't understand the pain in his heart, and he had nothing to explain, so he just passed by with a smile.
Afterwards, there was nothing to talk about. After all, the plans for the future were all decided, so Lin Xiao officially started his "inspection" trip and visited the Plasma Institute, which also included the Oriental Super Ring Tool.
Carmack device.
After a day of inspection, Lin Xiao was sent off by the Institute of Plasma and boarded a plane to Beijing.
