God's Crown

"It's not a big deal." An Yan rubbed his brows and said, "It's mainly about the subject. Professor Constantine from the University of Manchester asked me about some things on the subject."

Opening the door, An Yan and Gu Wei entered the room, and then Gu Wei said, "Then, is there nothing wrong with Xiao Yan?"

"What can happen?" An Yan looked at Gu Wei with a half-smile and raised his brows, "Do you want something to happen to me?"

"No, I don't have that idea." Gu Wei hastily stopped.

"That's right." An Yan sat on the sofa and said to Gu Weize, "He also told me that he might nominate me for the Nobel Prize in Physics."

"What?" Gu Wei rolled up his sleeves and glanced at An Yan and said, "Nominate you for the Nobel Prize in Physics?"

"Yes, he is a Nobel Prize winner, so he is eligible for nomination." An Yan smiled and said, "He will probably really nominate me for a Nobel Prize."

Gu Wei sat beside An Yan and said, "Then can you win this Nobel Prize?"

"I don't know." An Yan shook her head, "It's still unclear whether I can win this Nobel Prize."

"What's more, I won't find out about this until next year. This year, if you ask me if I can win the Nobel Prize, I think it may be a bit difficult." An Yan said dumbfoundedly, "What's more, the Nobel Prize is not what I said I could get it. can get it.”

"That's right." Gu Wei nodded, "The little banquet, I'll cook first."

"Okay, Brother Ze, you go cook first." An Yan nodded and said, "I'll take a rest."

"En." Gu Wei walked to the kitchen, he was quite shocked, no matter whether Xiao Yan won the Nobel Prize or not.However, even being nominated for a Nobel Prize is already a very shocking thing.What kind of subject can make him win the Nobel Prize.God knows, the Nobel Prize is the highest award in the academic world. So far, no one who has won the Nobel Prize is from the domestic academic circle.

It is true that someone has won the Literature Award two years ago, but so far no one of Chinese nationality has won the Nobel Prize in Science.

As for Mr. Yang, when he won the Nobel Prize, he was not a scientist of Chinese nationality.

Gu Wei was quite happy when he thought of this.His family's Xiao Yan is really good, and now he is almost a Nobel Prize winner.Although he is not particularly clear about the selection process of the Nobel Prize, he is humming a little tune and doing his own thing.

When An Yan walked to the kitchen, she saw Gu Wei was humming and singing.He raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you thinking?"

"No, Xiao Yan, I think you are too powerful."

"Why?" An Yan was a little amused, "What's so great?"

"You're already a candidate for the Nobel Prize."

"Not at all." An Yan shook his head and said seriously, "Whether the Nobel Prize will be won or not is uncertain. It is impossible to announce the candidate's information in 50 years. After 50 years, whether it is a candidate or not, in fact It doesn't matter anymore."

"Didn't it say that Haruki Murakami runs with him every year?"

"That's just the bookseller's booing." An Yan shook his head and said, "It is impossible for the Nobel Prize candidates to be announced."

"I see." Gu Wei scratched his head, "I thought Haruki Murakami had been running with him for many years."

"Did you buy Haruki Murakami's?"

"No."

"That's it. It's just the bookseller's booing to make Haruki Murakami's books go on sale. As long as you don't fall for it, they won't be able to make money from you."

"Xiao Yan, will someone call you when you enter the candidate stage?"

"No, no one will call me unless I have won the Nobel Prize." An Yan is very clear about the process of the Nobel Prize, and he also understands that if he does not win the Nobel Prize, the judges of the Nobel Prize Won't be calling him.

It is precisely because he understands the process of the Nobel Prize that An Yan has a view on whether he can win the Nobel Prize. He thinks that his chance of winning the Nobel Prize is not too high.

After all, the physics prizes recently awarded by the Nobel Prize are either the achievements of the 90s or astrophysics. Pure theoretical physics is not particularly popular among the Nobel Prize jury.The unified theory of strong electricity is indeed an academic achievement of the Nobel Prize level.But if you don't win a Nobel Prize for a day, it can only be counted as a quasi-Nobel Prize-level achievement.

After all, there are many people waiting in line to receive the Nobel Prize every year, and some of them are almost buried in the ground.

The Organizing Committee naturally wants to give priority to such people. Qilao is 80 years old, just to wait for a Nobel Prize.The age at which the Nobel Prize jury awards awards is indeed getting older.Generally speaking, he does not have any advantage in the Nobel Prize, and is even at a disadvantage.

The Nobel Prize is different from the Fields Prize. After all, it is an award that needs to be received before the age of 40.There is a time limit, and An Yan's achievements in mathematics are indeed impeccable.

But in the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Prize in Physics, An Yan's unified theory of strong electricity is indeed very powerful.There may be no academic achievements of the same level, but academic achievements of a slightly lower level are also Nobel Prize-level academic achievements.This depends on the preference of the Nobel Prize jury.

Perhaps they are more inclined towards astrophysics, so next year's award will naturally be a Ph.D. in astrophysics.

They are more inclined to theoretical physics, so An Yan will naturally be able to get rewards next year.Although the Nobel Prize is the highest honor in academia, it is still chosen by people after all.As long as it is chosen by human beings, this problem of preference cannot be escaped.

When thinking of this, An Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Weize and said, "Brother Ze."

"Huh?" Gu Wei was stunned for a moment, looked at An Yan and said, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." An Yan shook her head, "I was just thinking, this subject has been finished, but the next subject is quite difficult, how should I do the next subject."

"Don't think about it, Xiao Yan." Gu Wei stretched out his hand and pinched An Yan's face, "Didn't you just finish the current project? Take a break, and think of other ways to do the future project."

"That's right." An Yan nodded slightly. Now that the project has just been finished, it's not long since he got home, so he started thinking about the next project, which is really not of much use.

It's better to change your mind first and not think about this matter. After arriving at Princeton University, it seems that it is not too late for him to study this topic.

Gu Wei cooks, An Yan stands by and watches Gu Wei cook, and asks An Yan to cook, An Yan guesses that he is just a troublemaker.Not to mention cooking, even housework, he can turn what he does in a day into a week.So for this part, An Yan didn't have the energy or the mood to do it.

It would be better to let Gu Weize do it.

When An Zhi and Liu Shan came back, they saw Gu Weize and An Yan in the kitchen.Liu Shan came to the kitchen and said with a smile, "When did Xiao Yan come back?"

"I just came back today." An Yan coughed lightly, "Princeton University is on vacation, and I just finished my project, so I will go back to China to rest for a while. After returning to Princeton, the next project will be It's more difficult."

"When do you plan to return to China to work?" An Zhi asked in the living room.

"I don't know, this is my last subject." An Yan said in a deep voice, "I'll go home after this subject is finished."

"That's okay." An Zhien said, "After your project is finished, try to return home as soon as possible."

"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely return to China as soon as possible." An Yan was a little helpless when he spoke, as if he would not return to China in the future.

"Is there any wind or something over there?"

"What wind?"

An Yan was stunned for a moment, why he couldn't understand his father's words.

"It's just that you are not allowed to return to the country, or you are going to be centralized and managed. Hasn't it happened now?"

"No." An Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm just a basic science person, not a high-tech talent, so they don't have to look after me like this." The main reason is that even though he has made achievements in the unified theory of strong electricity and even the whole gut Both have achieved great success and seem to be of little use.This cannot be converted into high technology, and even if he stays in the United States, it is of no use.He seemed to have lightened some of the burden on the United States when he returned to China, and An Yan was not at all worried that he would be trapped in the United States, perhaps in physics.

He can make a lot of things, but—the United States intends to turn a blind eye. At this time, there is no need to really fall out with An Yan.

"Dad, don't worry about this problem."

"Why not worry."

"Such a thing won't happen." An Yan looked at Gu Weize next to him, dumbfounded.

Gu Wei gently rubbed An Yan's hair and said, "Xiao Yan, let's not talk about that."

"Yes, yes, what's the use of discussing these things here." Liu Shan also answered, "I said, Lao An, don't talk about these things anymore. Didn't your son say it? Nothing."

"Hmph!" An Zhi snorted coldly, and stopped talking.

Liu Shan shook her head and sighed, "Your father is like this now, don't be too hard on your father, it's for your own good."

"Mom, I know." An Yan nodded slightly and said, "I definitely won't blame my dad."

"Just let your dad say a few words." Liu Shan patted An Yan's shoulder, signaling him not to continue talking.Otherwise, his father would talk endlessly.

"En." An Yan nodded heavily.

Gu Weize also smiled at An Yan and didn't continue talking. It could be seen that Gu Weize didn't seem to have any particular desire to speak.

"Are you going back to your hometown this year?"

"Should be going back home."

…………

An Yan played well at home, but right now, the entire academic world was shocked.You know, An Yan is equivalent to dropping a devastating bomb in the academic world, and then walked away without looking back.

Under such circumstances, everyone in the academic world is frantically looking for An Yan.But it is impossible for them to find An Yan, plus An Yan's previous habits, it is probably impossible to find An Yan now.Even the group of scholars who want to find An Yan might as well verify the validity of An Yan's paper first, maybe it will be faster.

Professor Li Bo has been studying for several days, and he has not found any mistakes in the unified theory of strong electricity for the time being.At least the paper he saw had nothing wrong with it.

As for whether there are any mistakes in other places, he is actually not very clear.

After flipping through the materials for a while, Professor Li Bo put down the materials in his hand.Academician Lin is looking at the math problems.At the level of Academician Lin, the data and calculations of the whole paper cannot escape the eyes of Academician Lin.If there is really something wrong, academician Lin must find the wrong place very quickly.

Academician Lin didn't call him for several days. Doesn't that mean that An Yan has nothing wrong at least right now?

Really...

This guy himself ran off to have fun, and so many people left were constantly calculating around his thesis, even thinking about how to find the slightest error in his thesis.

Dr. Witten also ran to do experiments, and a group of mathematicians were nervously checking whether there were any calculation errors in An Yan's paper.In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that it was almost impossible for An Yan to make a calculation error.That's just luck.

If there is no error in the calculation, then we can only see whether there will be errors in theory or the application of the standard model and experimental data.

When the vast majority of scholars repeated experiments on An Yan's experimental data, they would not repeat the experiments with the mentality that his thesis might be wrong.Instead, I want to know whether An Yan's experimental data is true, and whether his paper can really complete the unified theory of strong electricity.

Now that there are fewer and fewer people studying theoretical physics, more and more people are studying high-energy physics and even astrophysics.But if the unified theory of strong electricity is really established, it is equivalent to giving new life to the theoretical physics that once ruled the entire physics field.It can also be said that there are a lot of opportunities for many people who want a water dissertation.

As long as this paper is proven to be true, in the near future, I am afraid that the number of times the unified theory of strong electricity will become very high in academic journals about physics.

Dr. Witten rubbed his eyebrows when he walked out of the laboratory.I happened to meet Professor Deligne passing by, and Professor Deligne said with a smile, "My friend, how is your experiment going?"

"The experiment can be repeated, and the data is within the allowable error range." Dr. Wei Teng forced a smile, "It seems that An is more powerful than I imagined, at least I have no way to make this theory now of."

"Seeing that Ann has made a strong electrical unification, which is only one step away from the grand unification theory, what do you think?"

"How should I say it?" Dr. Witten said with a frown, "I probably didn't expect that someone could actually come up with this theory. I thought this theory only appeared in impossible situations. After so many years , No one can come up with this theory, and now I suddenly find that someone has actually made this theory, I feel quite amazing.”

"Really?" Professor Deligne smiled.

"My friend, how is his calculation?"

"Do you think that as a top mathematician, he may have made mistakes in his calculations?"

"I don't think there is an error in his calculation." Dr. Witten said ponderingly, "I haven't finished reading the paper about him, but I browsed it roughly, and a large part of it is about normative fields. I think the significance of his unraveling the Yang-Mills equation lies in the discussion of the relationship between the theory and the strong interaction force."

"That's right, I also browsed this paper once." Professor Deligne nodded slightly, agreeing with Dr. Witten's statement.

"Although I have some theoretical disputes with An Yan, I have to admit that he will indeed come up with a grand unified theory faster than me, at least it seems to be the case now."

"What do you think his next paper will be?" Professor Deligne said casually, and now he is still thinking about the mathematical calculation formulas and answers given by An Yan.It seemed to him very beautiful, without the slightest mistake.That's how it should be, I didn't expect a guy who was only 22 years old to do such a thing.According to Professor Deligne, An Yan will have a great chance to win the Nobel Prize next year.

"What do you think is his chance of winning the Nobel Prize?"

"Very big." Dr. Witten said without hesitation, "Although he is still very young, his chances of winning the Nobel Prize are very high."

"The grand unified theory was originally the ultimate problem in the physics world, although that fellow Hawking—" Dr. Witten smiled, and did not continue, but said, "In short, this is a monument in the grand unified theory. Now The main house and the side hall have been completed, and the roof is the last thing left. In other words, the scope of the entire physics research in the future will be delimited by him within this scope. No matter what kind of physics, it is It is researched in accordance with the premise of the grand unified theory."

"Your idea is that he might be able to unravel the grand unified theory." Professor Deligne said with a smile, "What if he can't unravel the grand unified theory?"

"I think he has a high probability of being able to unravel the Grand Unified Theory." Dr. Witten shrugged and said, "At least in my opinion, the probability of him unraveling the Grand Unified Theory is higher than anyone else, isn't it? ?"

"I heard that Professor Constantine of the University of Manchester has nominated him as a candidate for the Nobel Prize." Professor Deligne did not know where he got the news, "I really want to go to October next year, at least In October next year, we should know whether he can win the Nobel Prize."

"If you win the Nobel Prize." Deligne looked at Professor Witten with a smile and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to keep the title of the first professor of mathematical physics."

"It doesn't matter." Dr. Witten said with a smile, "Since he can make a unified theory of strong electricity, it is enough to show that he is better than me."

"What's more, he has a background in physics, but mathematics is more like a monk halfway through." Dr. Witten looked at Deligne and said, "It's heartbreaking, but I think that maybe your mathematicians are better than our physicists. It’s more frustrating. This guy may have solved three world-class problems in a row, even in the last century, there were no mathematicians who solved three world-class problems.”

"Or, Deligne, my friend, do you think you can solve three world-class puzzles in one year?"

"Impossible." Deligne shook his head slightly and said, "So I am just a mathematician, and he is a master of mathematics."

"If we look at him as a master figure, then everything he does doesn't seem so weird, does it?"

"Hehe." Dr. Witten smiled and stopped talking.

…………

"The experiment is complete, and there are no problems with his experiment." In the New York laboratory, someone sighed, "This An Yan is simply incredible. What does he think about the unified theory of strong electricity?"

"I don't know what he thinks, but if he makes a grand unified theory, our future research will really be under his research and we will be doing other research."

"So you're saying we can't get him to make a grand unified theory?"

"My friend, are you a fool? How do you think you can prevent him from making a grand unified theory? Who is he, a professor at Princeton University, a doctoral supervisor. What's more, he has been nominated for the Nobel Prize Candidate, plus he is a student who is very concerned all over the world. What kind of reasons do you think we need to tell him that we can’t continue to work on the grand unified theory? You don’t think we just say a few words, Will he listen to me?"

"But if we don't stop him, then he will definitely come up with a grand unified theory. My friend, think about how long it took him to solve the Yang-Mills equation, only half a year, and he has already made The Grand Unified Theory. As far as I know, his next topic still seems to be related to the Grand Unified Theory. I guess, there may be a probability of more than 90.00% that it will be the unification of gravity and electromagnetic force. You said, we can really compare Is he faster to make a grand unified theory?"

"So what if he came up with a grand unified theory?"

"You must know that this is a basic subject, and it is also a basic science. This result will be published. At that time, not only he himself needs to study it, but the entire academic community will study it within the framework of the grand unified theory. All physics-related Subject." Shrugged his shoulders, "So I just don't think it's necessary to stop his research, besides, we can't stop him even if we want to, let alone snipe him. Look, in the New York laboratory, Mention his name, who do you think is still worried about wanting to snipe him?"

"That's true." After thinking about it, he thought it was very unrealistic to attack An Yan.

After all, An Yan is very famous in the New York laboratory, and he is also a very famous physicist in the world.Yes, many people thought he was just a mathematician before, but now people have to admit that he is indeed a physicist.And he is a physicist who has an extremely deep research on physics, even a master-level understanding.

He dared to post this paper on arxiv, and even submitted it to the journal Nature, which shows that he is very confident in his paper.

The academic circles generally believed that he was only a mediocre person in physics.Only now did everyone come to their senses that this guy might have had the same level of physics as some long-established professors when he was studying for a Ph.D.As he unraveled mathematical problems and gained a deeper understanding of physics, his level of theoretical physics may also rise in a straight line.

Everyone is not particularly optimistic about the grand unified theory he wants to do. Why does he continue to do it?

At that time, he must have been very confident in himself.Is this probably the Chosen One?Doing mathematics can become a Fields Medal.Do physics and directly produce Nobel Prize-level results.

This is not something every scholar can do.

No, even something that most scholars dare not even think about, was directly achieved by An Yan.

"Okay, stop studying."

"I think there are many people who study this paper in the world. After a while, whether this paper is true or not will be announced. Now there is a lot of noise, and there may be some rumors in a while." .”

"I think it's mostly in his favour, though."

"Isn't he already an authority in the physics world? After Edward Witten, I'm afraid that the number of citations of his papers will continue to rise in the future, and it is also possible that the h-index will reach a new peak."

"So, what do you think you can do? He is a theoretical physicist now. Even if it is official, I am afraid that he cannot force him to stay in the United States, or even send him to prison."

"I think Huaguo should attach great importance to him. Let him continue to study theoretical physics. As long as he doesn't get in touch with applied physics, then everything is easy to talk about. At least, now that he returns to Huaguo, it is impossible to give Huaguo a short-term Guilt, bring benefits. Or in terms of replacement, he is of no use."

"Friend, don't forget, his math..."

"Don't we have mathematicians in America?"

"Perhaps, the ns equation?"

"Now he doesn't look like he wants to do ns equations. I think he might not do ns equations, at least not now. After he returns to Huaguo, what does it matter to us whether he does it or not? Besides, even He did it, and it must be submitted to an academic journal. We can figure out what he can figure out. There is no need to panic about this matter. In the field of basic science, even if Huaguo takes the lead , is of no use."

[Wen Biezhuang v: I want to share my views on the "Unified Theory of Strong Electricity" published by a young Chinese scholar on arxiv. Does anyone want to read it? 】

This Mr. Wen Biezhuang, who can be called the number one old hermaphrodite on the Internet, always likes to use some strange, true and false things, or common sense that everyone thinks is not right to dwarf everything in Huaguo. So as to achieve unlimited elevation of the United States.Most importantly, he is not a scientist.
