From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

As soon as Lin Xiao's words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Black hole is a magical word in physics.

Both physics and mathematics like to study extreme situations. For example, in mathematics, there are various ways to solve the limit, consider the dependent variable when the independent variable is at a maximum or minimum value, and so on.

The same is true in the physics world. For example, before M theory was proposed, there were five seemingly independent string theories, but in fact those five string theories were only the solutions of the five limit cases of M theory.

Therefore, studying the performance of the problem in the limit situation can give us a deeper understanding of the problem.

And black holes are such an extreme case, that is, the extreme case of gravity, and gravity is the fundamental force that gives physicists the most headaches.

Many contradictions between quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity are related to gravity. Those who study the theory of relativity believe that gravity is just the curvature of space-time, while quantum mechanics believes that there is a graviton passing through it.

However, the graviton has never been discovered, which makes people call it the most unsocial elementary particle. The transmission of other fundamental forces and related particles have been discovered. As long as your gravity has not been discovered, it is of course too unsocial. up.

Of course, this seems to say that quantum mechanics is wrong, but quantum mechanics has always been correct in other places. If the whole quantum mechanics is overthrown in this way, it is obviously fair, and the reverse is also true. It would be even more unfair to overthrow the theory of relativity, because the theory of relativity is quite successful in explaining gravity, just as quantum mechanics is as successful in explaining other fundamental forces.

Even though multidimensional field theory has appeared now, multidimensional field theory studies multidimensional space, and it is still a new theory, which cannot be a good reconciler between quantum mechanics and relativity. In "Particles in ", the more complete Standard Model predicts several kinds of elementary particles, and one of the predicted particles is very consistent with the conjectures of gravitons by physicists in quantum mechanics in the past, but it only fits. No one can definitively answer this question.

Therefore, physicists who stand for the theory of relativity, although they cannot refute the multidimensional field theory, still insist that the particle predicted by the multidimensional field theory is something other than the graviton.

It is precisely because of this contradiction that the study of black holes has become a way out to solve this problem.

By observing black holes and studying the characteristics of extreme gravity, they can better understand this magical force.

But now, Lin Xiao actually said that they might have discovered a black hole, which had to surprise the physicists present.

Doesn't this mean that they accidentally made another amazing discovery?

"Lin, is this true?!"

Byron Winston immediately stood up and asked.

Pointing to the image on the big screen, Lin said, "I can't guarantee whether it's real, but as long as we can prove that this peak is caused by Hawking radiation, it will be fine."

"So we now need more data, as well as images of motion trajectories. In addition, if it is really Hawking radiation, the generation of this wave crest must be accompanied by the appearance of heavy-mass elementary particles. We also need to test this point."

"Okay, that's it, let's continue."

This time, the audience became more motivated.

After all, it was a black hole!

If the existence of artificial black holes is verified in their hands, then each of their names will be engraved on this historical feat.

And let's not talk about these falsehoods, just say that if they want to leave CERN in the future, they will have the opportunity to work in better institutions.

As a result, all the people in the audience, whether they are young, middle-aged, or even old, are all staring at the data on the screen, looking for a peak or a track that may hide a treasure.

In this way, time passed quickly.

……

To the outside world, the news of the great success of the Gencha Method has spread long ago, and the results of noise reduction as high as 90% are enough to surprise those who have been paying attention.

Everyone can see how much the Root Cha method has helped them, and each of them will become a beneficiary of the Root Cha Method.

There is such a topic about root tracing method on the Reddit platform abroad, which has aroused many discussions in high-energy physics.

The title of this topic is as follows: [How effective is root investigation? 】

There have been thousands of replies on this topic, after all, there are quite a lot of people who study physics.

"Oh, I can assure you, this Lin was sent by God to save our high energy physics, I just want to say thank you Lin! 』

"Our school's particle accelerator laboratory is ready to measure all the surrounding environments. I was worried that my thesis would fail, but now if I use the root check method, I will definitely be stable!" 』

『Ahahaha, I am going to use the root search method to refurbish my papers published in journals with an impact factor of 5, and then see if I can choose a journal with an impact factor of 7 to publish. I just want to say thank you, Lin! 』

『Same upstairs, before I had a headache how to graduate, now I finally have a chance, I also want to thank Lin! 』

"Damn Lin, why is it multidimensional field theory and root tracing method?Multidimensional field theory has taken up so many places in "Nature" and "Science", and now the Genza method will take up a lot, right?Damn it! 』

"Same upstairs, it's really disgusting. All the papers I was going to send to "Science" were returned, and I was asked to send them later. God knows how long I have to wait!" 』

"Oh, please let me sympathize with you unlucky bastards, but fortunately I study physics, thank you Lin!I love Lin! 』

"Are you all good at math?I have read Lin Fa’s paper on arxiv several times, but I still don’t understand it.』

"Guys, don't you feel off topic?Shouldn't we be discussing how effective root checking is? 』

"Okay, someone finally got to the point, so let me answer it. The Gencha method has revolutionary significance for our high-energy physics. As we all know, our high-energy physics is an experimental science. Using experimental data Conducting research is our most important method.

Of course, a pervert like Lin is not included in this list. He only needs a pen and endless scratch paper, and he can make our high-energy physics, or the whole of physics, a huge development——

Back to the problem of the root investigation method, since it is an experiment, there must be errors, and there are many errors in our experiments, such as the optical cables of Fermilab:)

Regarding the fiber optic cable of Fermilab, if you are interested, you can search it. Let’s return to the topic:

Among our experimental errors, the earth's magnetic field is a problem first. Although the earth's magnetic field is very weak, for high-energy physics, even if it is a weak magnetic field, we must consider its influence, just like the ATLAS detector of LHC , that is, there is an internal magnetic field. Through the influence of the magnetic field on the Lorentz force of charged particles, we can analyze various data according to the orbit of charged particles. this problem.

Of course, in fact, in the past, we have actually done a good job of correcting the influence of the geomagnetic field. The treatment effect of absent thermal radiation and the influence of gas impurities are the most critical points.

In the past, we were always at a loss when facing these thermal radiations. Even if some methods were proposed to correct them, they still could not achieve satisfactory results, so it had a great impact on the accuracy of our experiments, and at the same time let us ignore many small details. places, and often these small places may hide a new fundamental force or particle.

Therefore, as some friends above said, I should thank Lin for being able to write a paper, but in fact, every researcher of high energy physics should thank Lin, and Peter Higgs also said the same to Lin Having said that, for Lin, this is what he should do, but we, the beneficiaries, need to thank him.

That's it. 』

"Wow, I don't understand what I'm talking about, but I feel like it's amazing."

"Boss, how do you know so much?Insiders?When did Higgs say this to Lin? 』

"Hey, I'm actually from CERN, and I'm doing research under Lin's hands now, and I want to tell you a big news, we may have discovered a black hole!" 』

"Wang Defa, black hole? !real or fake? 』

"Did you guys know that?This matter has become popular, let me share a link with you, [We have successfully created an artificial black hole? ! ——Click to open】』

Enter this link, you can see the video on the Youtube.

The publisher of the video is none other than CERN.

Of course, CERN has its own various media, and is very keen on sharing on the Internet. There are 10,000+ subscriptions on Youtube. Although this subscription is relatively small, if you think about it again, it is a For a pure cutting-edge scientific research institution, it is of course quite high to have 10,000+ subscriptions.

Generally speaking, the videos posted by CERN on Youtube have tens of thousands of views, and there are very few videos with more than 10 views. God.

After entering the video, the video screen introduced the achievements made by Lin Xiao and the team during this period of time, and introduced the role of root investigation method in easy-to-understand words. When the progress was halfway through, the video finally explained On to the title thing.

As soon as the screen turned, a set of data images appeared, which was exactly what Lin Xiao thought might represent Hawking radiation.

The voice-over introduces: "...After Lin used the root search method to clear up the noise, we obtained extremely 'clear' experimental data, which allowed us to analyze them more easily, and even we were able to find those who were in the past. The data that is always ignored by us, such as the data that may represent the W boson, or even, the data that represents the microscopic black hole!"

"According to the latest analysis of Lin's project team, they found traces of the possible existence of black holes in the collision of the LHC - of course, you don't have to worry, these data come from the collision data a few years ago, so these 'black holes' ’ Even if they did appear, they would have been destroyed in an instant, otherwise our world would have been destroyed years ago.”

"Then in Lin's analysis, he believes that this group of sudden high-energy reactions represents the reaction of Hawking radiation. Hawking radiation refers to the thermal radiation emitted from the inside of a black hole, so it is also called a black hole. For microscopic black holes For example, since it will be evaporated due to Hawking radiation in an instant, it will decay into those elementary particles with relatively heavy masses after formation, and then as long as we find these decay products, we can indirectly prove that there has been black hole."

"Of course, it may be nothing—but we have to trust the intuition of physicists, especially physicists like Lin, so everyone can look forward to the news later."

……

The next part of the video is some unimportant things. For people, the most important thing is the black hole.

Black holes are full of magic not only in the physics community, but also in the general population.

Everyone wants to know what's inside the black hole, is it another world, or endless darkness?

No one can know.

But now, they humans have actually created a black hole, which has to make them interested, so this has led to such a high playback volume of this video.

Although the final result did not show anything, the title was suspected of being a title party, but it still made every netizen who watched this video amazed, especially this is Lin Xiao's guess, now a multi-dimensional Field theory has made more and more people know Lin Xiao. For most ordinary people, if such a powerful physicist as Lin Xiao has made such a guess, it must be a black hole!

As a result, there was an uproar in the comment area.

"God!It is really a black hole, CERN, you have done all kinds of bad things, the destruction of the world must be your fault! 』

"Stop CERN from creating a black hole!They can create evil world-destroying weapons, and together we will destroy their particle colliders! 』

"Why doesn't our government stop such organizations?They are all able to create black holes, do they want to destroy our earth? 』

"I am here to establish ACO (Anti-CERN-Organization) and let us save the world together!"This will be ACO's Manifest Destiny』

……

It is probably because so many people have expressed their opposition that CERN had to come forward to explain again, saying that their LHC really will not create black holes.

However, obviously to these opinionated people who may be missing a nerve in their heads, no matter what CERN says, it will probably be considered a lie.

In this regard, the CERN staff responsible for operating these media can only express helplessness.

I can't help it, I can't persuade you.

Of course, apart from those who feel that CERN is going to destroy the world, there are quite a few normal comments and other abnormal comments.

"As a Ph.D. in the Department of Physics of Harvard University, I was shocked when I heard this news. Once it can be confirmed that it is a black hole, then this will definitely be one of the most important discoveries of this year!" 』

"Thank you Lin!Make my graduation hopeful! 』

"Lin is simply my savior. I don't have to worry about what to write for my two graduation thesis hahaha! 』

"Damn CERN, you must be SERN behind the scenes! 』

"All of this is the choice of Steins Gate! 』

"Why is this Lin Xiao so powerful!He is simply not human. Is he an alien? 』

"Maybe it's a hang up? 』

"Because he is of Korean origin, and our Korean blood flows in his body!" 』

"As far as you go, Lin Xiao is from China! 』

"Lin Xiao is so handsome! 』

"I repeat again, Lin Xiao is a mathematician, not a physicist!Those of you who study physics should figure this out first, don't you know? 』

……

Comments always get off topic without realizing it, and of course, that's not the point.

Regardless, the news that an artificial black hole may have been created at the LHC has come as a surprise.

Although it has been reported that the LHC can create black holes before, this is always only a theoretical feasibility, and there is no evidence of "really possible existence", but now a well-known physicist and mathematician directly believes that It is possible to create a black hole, and its importance is naturally very different.

Especially for those physicists.

More and more physicists began to pay attention to the news of CERN, and many physicists even went to Geneva, because they all wanted to get the final news in a more timely manner. Once it was verified as true, they would all be the first Time began to study this 'artificial black hole', because there might be something in it that could make them famous and then become top scientists.

Chapter 2 and Three Black Holes!

Time passes quickly.

Data processing is a long process. Although there is the help of the root investigation method, the root investigation method only completes the first step. The process of sorting out these data and performing various complicated calculations still needs to be carried out by their manpower, otherwise Why it took a year for Fermilab to measure the mass of the W boson.

Now that Lin Xiao and the others are able to go so fast, it has a lot to do with Gen Zhafa.

Of course, it is also related to the relatively high work intensity. Although in the first two months, because Lin Xiao hadn't figured out the root investigation method, the staff of their project team were relatively idle, but after the root investigation method was developed, they started from scratch. Busy at the end.

Of course, the people in the project team are also quite willing. After all, they are working under Lin Xiao, and they are still solving such cutting-edge problems, especially the artificial black hole. They also want to confirm this matter.

So even the Europeans who don't like working overtime the most began to work overtime.

In this way, without knowing it, the time is gradually approaching December.

It was still in the computer room of the computer center.

"All the data of the W boson mass group has been entered and the calculation can be started at any time."

"All the data of the microscopic black hole group has also been input, and the calculation can begin."

On both sides, two groups, each with more than 50 people, a total of more than 100 people shouted in unison.

"Okay, let's start."

Lin Xiao gave his instructions, and then he sat quietly in front of his computer with anticipation in his eyes.

After nearly two months passed, they finally finished all the work and started the final step, which is to calculate the final result.

Moreover, they dedicated the two tasks of determining the mass of the W boson and the determination of the microscopic black hole to one day.

It would be best if both tasks were successfully completed, since it would mean they brought two major discoveries to the physics community on the same day.

The re-determination of the mass of the W boson is a re-verification of the multi-dimensional field theory, and the artificial black hole is a dream that all physicists pursue together.

Of course, they are not very sure about the latter, because they finally found not many data that fit the speculation, even less than [-], and the sample size is not large, which brings problems to the accuracy of the results. Larger unstable factors.
