Chapter 241 Lonely Experts, New Direction Wang Hao: Complete the research when we get back!
This is the first time that Wang Hao has established a task dedicated to material research and development.
Different from other materials research and development, the materials he developed were superconducting materials. In addition, material research and development still relied on mathematical logic rather than content in the field of applied materials.
This research is based on the elemental composition of 'M1 type'.
At present, only the elemental composition of the 'M1 type' is known, and there is no other related progress, but the main direction is still clear.
The most important thing in research and development is to solve the problem of element matching and collision during the material experiment. The matching and collision of elements is directly related to the previous theoretical research.
For example, for two different sets of element combinations, one group calculated the superconducting temperature to be 20K, and the other group calculated the superconducting temperature to be 30K.
The substance formed by the combination of the two groups of elements is not necessarily 25K, it may be only 10K, or even lower.
This is the conflict problem of element combinations.
The reason why the collision problem of element combinations occurs is mainly because there are too many elements, and calculations cannot be made based on semi-topological research, so the 'collision' problem can only be solved continuously during the experiment.
For example, there is a molecule of material composed of three elements and seven atoms. Adding a new element and subtracting two atoms will lower the superconducting critical temperature. This is the main research direction.
Of course, new material research is not that simple.
In the process of researching new materials, experiments must be continuously conducted to synthesize some new substances, and corrections and improvements must be made along the way.
The process of correction and improvement is the process of judging the conflict of elements to guide the research direction.
In the process, complex experiments must be carried out continuously, including communication gravity experiments, so that a lot of data can be obtained for corresponding judgments.
Obviously, the research of new materials will be a very complicated process. At the same time, the significance of the research is very important.
This is a process of transforming theory into application. As long as there are some small results, the entire process of the experiment will be of great reference value for future research.
Research on materials, including research on superconducting materials, and accumulation of experience are very important.
As long as we can accumulate experience and obtain corresponding results, because superconducting materials are a brand new field that can be expanded in many directions, it will be much easier to achieve further results in the future.
This is also an important reason why Wang Hao decided to establish a research mission on superconducting materials.
As long as a research can be completed, the direction can be controlled later based on the research process and results can be achieved one by one.
He hopes to complete the first step from theory to application. Research on superconducting materials is obviously a big project.
The science and technology department has made a decision to establish a large-scale high-temperature superconducting materials research center. The theoretical support comes from Wang Hao's research and is based on data from the Physics Laboratory and Factory 244.
The new research center is still under planning, but professional materials experts have already moved in. It is a team jointly established by several institutions including the Academy of Aerospace Materials and the Institute of Materials of the Academy of Sciences.
Their temporary research site was located in a renovated factory.
At the same time, Wang Hao also had an additional position - deputy director of the High Temperature Superconducting Materials Research Center.
The reason why he is the deputy director is because he is not an expert in materials research, but mainly provides theoretical support and cooperates with experimental research.
Normally, the candidate for the director will be determined only after the research center is officially established.
Currently, Wang Hao is the main person in charge of related work in the research center. He can also directly participate in experiments and guide what kind of research to do.
The superiors really attach great importance to the High Temperature Superconducting Materials Research Center. As soon as they decided to establish it, they quickly formed a materials team and selected a site to build a temporary laboratory.
This is mainly because the research on high-temperature superconducting materials is so important.
After Wang Hao's research results were made public, many foreign institutions began to conduct research. They had direct application data, so they naturally had to take the lead and make arrangements in advance. They hoped to research it earlier so that domestic high-temperature superconducting materials could be given priority.
put into industrial use.
As the deputy director of the High-Temperature Superconducting Materials Research Center, Wang Hao is in charge of theoretical research work, and he has also begun to prepare for new material research.
He established a special calculation group at Xihai University to start doing complex calculation work in advance, and the candidates were mainly composed of scholars of algebraic geometry.
This calculation group is optional to join, but most of the newly hired algebraic geometry scholars have joined. The reason is very simple. Joining the calculation group means participating in major materials research projects, and you can also get more money.
subsidy.
Everyone knows that superconducting technical materials are about to take off. Only by participating in high-end research that leads to technological take-off can we gain better prospects.
There was still some time before the International Conference on Superconducting Materials and Mechanisms, so Wang Hao was not in a hurry to do new research, but began to take care of his students with peace of mind and enjoy a relaxed and leisurely life.
Of course, he still has some work to do.
For example, in a project jointly conducted by the Mason Number Laboratory and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the core algorithm was almost solved. He spent some time and patiently worked on the mathematical work of the main algorithm.
The rest of the work is left to others.
On this day, Wang Hao was leisurely drinking coffee in the office. He even had time to watch a very bloody movie and TV series, and he was complaining about the ending of the TV series——
Why did the female protagonist choose Gao Fushuai in the end? But the poor male protagonist, who had been entangled with her for a long time, married Gao Fushuai's sister?
So, have mainstream TV dramas promoted the idea of money worship? People’s hearts are not as old as they used to be!
When Wang Hao was sighing, Qiu Hui'an knocked on the door and walked in. He was obviously a little excited, "Teacher Wang, I have come up with a solution!"
"What?"
"Legendre's guess, I've come up with a solution!" Qiu Hui'an said excitedly. Wang Hao also straightened up and became serious, "Tell me about it."
Qiu Hui'an took a stack of manuscript paper and began to write, while explaining, "I initially planned to use mathematical analysis to cover it, but then I was wondering if it could be analyzed through direct calculation.
"
"I read a new international study and found that the method he used is very interesting. It is a combination of sieve method and algebraic analysis."
"If you are doing algebraic analysis, you can use this matrix," Qiu Hui'an continued to explain.
Wang Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and after thinking along his words, he knew that Qiu Hui'an's method was the right idea.
Even without detailed calculations and analysis, he knew that the method mentioned by Qiu Hui'an would definitely be able to solve the Legendre Conjecture.
After Qiu Hui's Security Department finished speaking, he commented with appreciation, "There is nothing wrong with your idea. If you continue to calculate and analyze, you will definitely be able to solve the follow-up problems."
"Um."
Qiu Hui'an nodded vigorously. After receiving Wang Hao's approval, his confidence became more abundant.
Wang Hao gave a few more pointers on the methods mentioned by Qiu Hui'an, and recommended a reference book to him to assist him in subsequent calculations and analysis. Then he also thought of the students' thesis questions.
He walked around the workshop and found Xu Jie studying the Yang-Mills equation. He couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any ideas on the study of this equation?"
I'm still researching." Xu Jie replied awkwardly. "I think you are solving equations?"
"right."
Xu Jie said, "Your last research was based on the analysis of the Yang-Mills equation, right? I think so too."
Wang Hao nodded lightly, "Your idea is correct." He pondered for a moment and continued, "Do you know how Academician Qiu Chengwen became famous?"
"Kabila conjecture?"
"To be precise, it is the case where the Chen class conjectured by Kabila is negative and zero."
Wang Hao continued, "Academician Qiu Chengwen originally wanted to solve Einstein's equation. His idea is very similar to yours, which is to solve an equation."
Xu Jie's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Wang Haodao, "But, do you know how long Academician Qiu Chengwen has been researching?" "How long?"
"Five years!"
Wang Hao stretched out a hand, "He used
I spent five years pondering Einstein’s equations, adding Kabila’s conjecture midway. Later, after getting married, I completed the proof that the Chen class is negative and zero.”
The smile on Xu Jie's face faded.
"You are now looking for a direction for your master's thesis, rather than completing major research. Unless you are more talented than Academician Qiu Chengwen, I don't think you can achieve any results in a short time by using this method."
Xu Jie's face fell.
Wang Hao and Xu Jie talked for a few words and then went to see other people.
Helen's research was quite satisfactory. She was also studying the Yang-Mills equation, but instead of solving it directly, she found a lot of paper materials and conducted a series of comparative analyses.
The written mathematics content alone is already a high level, and the level of effort is worthy of recognition.
Wang Hao looked at it for a few times, and finally shook his head. Helen could definitely achieve results by constantly brushing up papers, but there would definitely be no big results. In other words, it would be enough to write a professional mathematics paper.
Ability to submit an article to SCI.
Chen Mengmeng seems to be a little "smarter" than Helen. She is studying Wang Hao's annihilation theory and has recorded a lot of content.
Wang Hao asked with interest, "Why do you want to study this theory?"
Chen Mengmeng said, "I don't know what research to do. If it is to study the Yang-Mills equation, I feel it is very accurate."
"So I was wondering if I could combine the annihilation theory and analyze the commonalities to find out the parts related to quantum physics."
Wang Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he gave Chen Mengmeng a big thumbs up.
He called Xu Chao and Helen over and said together, "If you can't find your own direction, just follow Chen Mengmeng's method."
"Through the study of the Yang-Mills equation, we can find the commonalities between annihilation theory and quantum physics. This is a very large field, and it is easy to come up with results."
"The annihilation theory is not perfect yet, and there are still many areas that can be researched. As long as there is a small result, there is no problem in publishing an SCI article."
Wang Hao said it very definitely.
A year ago, there would have been no point in doing research in this area, because no physicist in the world would recognize the annihilation theory.
It's different now.
Annihilation theory has become a major focus, and many mathematicians and physicists hope to engage in related research. This is because there is only a little bit of structure and it is very difficult to conduct research.
However, the environment that Chen Mengmeng and others are in is different.
Wang Hao does not need them to do high-end research alone. Anyone who has good ideas can come and ask him. Their research in this direction will not only produce results easily, but also provide him with a lot of inspiration.
When Xu Chao heard what Wang Hao said, his face suddenly collapsed. Understanding the Yang-Mills equation was already very difficult.
Now add annihilation theory and quantum physics? The difficulty has greatly increased!
Helen thought about it seriously. She was not sure what research she would do, but annihilation theory was indeed a good choice.
Chen Mengmeng felt very happy because her research direction was recognized by Wang Hao. At this time, Ding Zhiqiang happened to walk in.
When he saw Wang Hao in the workroom, he hesitated.
Wang Hao turned around and saw Ding Zhiqiang with a satisfied smile on his face. Ding Zhiqiang suddenly felt chills all over. Whenever Wang Hao showed this kind of smile, he felt that the burden on his shoulders would become heavier.
really!
Wang Hao said, "Ding Zhiqiang, I was just looking for you. Your algebraic geometry is very good. I have already figured out how to do your master's research for you."
"I have just set up a computing group. You go to the laboratory building of the School of Science to find Zhang He. I told him that I will take you to work together."
"This computing job is just right for you. If you can achieve certain results in the field of semi-topological research and computing, you will have no problem publishing a doctoral thesis or even a top-notch paper."
Ding Zhiqiang immediately grimaced.
He felt that he was tired enough at ordinary times, but he didn't expect that Wang Hao directly found him a job. He could refuse
Absolutely?
When he saw several seniors and sisters looking at him with envy and jealousy, Ding Zhiqiang immediately suppressed his rejection.
Forget it! Life is always
God is about to give a great responsibility to this people, and I don’t want to do it!
The International Conference on Superconducting Materials and Mechanisms will be held soon at the Sudong International Conference Center.
Xihai University sent a "delegation" to attend the conference, including Wang Hao, Lin Bohan, Luo Dayong, He Yi, Xiang Qiansheng, and Fu Xiangdong.
Fu Xiangdong is the most outstanding algebraic geometry scholar recruited from Xihai University. He is forty-two years old and is already a professor at Princeton University.
He graduated from Princeton University and later returned to China as an associate professor at Donggang University. He was promoted to professor in just two years.
Later, due to some work reasons, he returned to work at Princeton University and was promoted to professor in just one year.
In the past five years, Fu Xiangdong has successively won the Cole Algebra Prize and the Ramanujan Gold Medal, but he has always hoped to return to work in China.
The reason is very simple. His relatives and friends are all in China, and his wife has always wanted to return to China. There must be a lot of inconveniences in living abroad.
As the saying goes, 'returning home in fine clothes'.
Fu Xiangdong hopes to return to China with dignity, but even if he returns to China, he will just find a university as a professor as before. It is not easy to apply for funding in the field of algebraic geometry. Even if he applies, it will only be a small project. By then, his salary and living standards will be
will all decline.
When Xihai University issued a new policy and Wang Hao personally called to invite him and talked about various benefits, Fu Xiangdong hesitated for a long time and decided to give Xihai University a try.
Now Fu Xiangdong has become the leader of the calculation group and is determined to participate in the research of high-temperature superconducting materials.
Wang Hao naturally believed in Fu Xiangdong, so he came to the Superconducting Materials and Mechanism Conference and brought Fu Xiangdong with him, so that he could experience the future of algebraic geometry applied to superconducting research up close.
no doubt.
In the next few years or more, the demand for talents in the field of algebraic geometry will exceed the supply, and it will become the most popular field in mathematics.
If one subject field becomes prominent, other subjects will surely decline. For example, scholars engaged in research on superconducting condensed matter physics.
the reason is simple.
The most popular thing now is to study the superconducting mechanism based on AC gravity experiments, and the research on the superconducting mechanism and the direction of materials seems to have been "cleared" by Wang Hao.
Even for follow-up research, scholars in the field of algebraic geometry are needed to make simplifications.
Traditional theoretical research on superconducting condensed matter physics has naturally declined, and related research projects have encountered various problems.
Wang Chenglin from the Basic Science Center and Du Jianwei from the Superconductivity Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences were walking together and talking gloomily.
"Now our research seems to be worthless, and all previous theoretical foundations seem to have been overturned?" Wang Chenglin said depressedly.
"It's impossible to overturn it. Those studies are based on experiments." Du Jianwei shook his head and said, "It's just that it has become worthless."
He complained, "We have a project and the funds have been stuck. I asked Academician Wu Hui last time and the answer was that the funds are limited. To put it bluntly, it is delayed."
Wang Chenglin said depressedly, "So are we. And many people have no motivation to do research anymore." The two of them sighed together.
Now the research they did seems to have lost its meaning.
Research related to condensed matter physics involves issues such as particle waves and interlayer transmission. Simply put, it is the study of particle motion characteristics inside superconductors.
This is different from the study of the Standard Model of Particles.
The main purpose of the study of the Standard Model of Particles is to explore the most basic laws of the universe, the nature of matter composition, the source of matter, antimatter, etc.
The study of superconducting condensed matter physics is purely for the purpose of connecting applications, that is, to provide theoretical support for the manufacture of superconducting materials.
Now that theoretical support for superconducting materials is available, their research seems to have lost its meaning. Wang Chenglin even feels like he is going to lose his job.
Their research is of course meaningful, but because
Once the problem of theoretical support for superconducting materials has been solved, the direction of underlying research in condensed matter physics will no longer find continued purpose and value.
Du Jianwei also said, "When all the projects in hand are completed, we may be unemployed."
"It is estimated that it will not be completed. The science and technology fund has already started to hold up funds. Even if there are results, there will be less international attention."
"Alas~~"
Finally, the two of them sighed together.
Suddenly a shout came from the distance, "Wang Hao is here!" "Professor Wang is here!"
The two of them walked over together, and when they saw Wang Hao and his party, they could only smile and let them in.
Wang Hao and his party included only Wang Hao, He Yi and Xiang Qiansheng. The others did not follow because they came to attend an internal meeting.
A group of people walked and talked as they entered the second floor of the conference center. There was a small conference hall there.
The Science Foundation Committee held an internal meeting two days in advance, and all those attending were big-name figures in the field of superconducting research.
Before the meeting started, everyone was discussing separately.
Academician Wu Hui was also there. He gave a brief introduction, "This time we are discussing the establishment of an international organization for superconductivity."
"We want to take the lead in establishing this organization, and it is best to take the lead. Superconductivity will definitely develop in the future, which involves theoretical research, new materials and other issues. Whether it is theory or application, it is very important to grasp the leadership."
Everyone still knows the main purpose of the conference. It is not easy to lead a new international organization, especially an organization for superconducting technology.
If the country takes the lead in establishing it, many institutions and the country will definitely withdraw by then.
After Wu Hui said a few words, everyone continued to discuss it normally. In fact, the establishment of international organizations has little to do with scholars. They can only give some theoretical and technical suggestions, even if they come to participate in the meeting
Just listening.
Before the meeting began, Wang Hao was surrounded by several people asking questions about the latest research. He gave a brief introduction, and then talked about the importance of algebraic geometry talents, "In the next few years, we must vigorously cultivate algebraic geometry talents.
Talent in the field of geometry.”
"Talents in this area will be in short supply. Whether they are doing material research or theoretical research, they will be in great demand."
"If there are results in materials research, I believe it will completely trigger an upsurge in superconducting material research. More relevant talents will be needed in the future, and many companies will join the competition."
There is no doubt about this.
The rapid development of science and technology brings huge benefits.
Talents in the field of algebraic geometry will become a top priority for research and development and will become a scarce talent resource in the next few years.
Because he was surrounded by heavyweights in the field of domestic superconductivity, Wang Hao also introduced the problems encountered in materials research.
"The main problem encountered is the correlation of the combination of elements."
"I believe that a large amount of new element combination data will be released soon. The analysis of double elements will be relatively easy. By then, there will be a lot of data related to double elements. It will be like looking up a double element combination in a dictionary.
, you can know the corresponding superconducting temperature."
"But having data on dual element combinations does not mean that high-temperature superconducting materials can be developed. In this case, there will be problems with the correlation of element combinations."
"This research will be more complex and will involve a series of experiments, and experiments will be used to improve the theory."
Wang Hao said a lot of things in succession.
Experts who specialize in superconducting materials all feel that they have gained a lot and feel that they have found a future research and development direction.
Wang Chenglin is definitely different because his main research direction is superconductivity theory.
After Wang Hao talked a lot, Wang Chenglin still couldn't hold back and asked, "Professor Wang, I am not questioning your research. Your results are recognized around the world and will definitely promote the vigorous development of superconducting technology.
"
"But I've always had a problem."
Wang Hao nodded seriously as he listened, "Professor Wang, tell me what the problem is."
"That's right." Wang Chenglin said, "Your research and the traditional direction of condensed matter physics can be said to be
It is completely decoupled and self-contained."
"And you directly connected with the problem of superconducting temperature and supported material research and development with theory. However, have all the research we have done before been denied? Has it become meaningless?"
"Those theories, so many Nobel-level achievements"
Wang Chenglin said these words from the bottom of his heart, which made other people nod their heads. They were also confused.
The study of superconducting condensed matter physics is a general direction, and it can even be said that there is a complete theory. However, because of Wang Hao's research, all theories seem to have become meaningless.
But their theory is correct and has been verified by experiments, otherwise there would not be so many Nobel Prizes in Physics.
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, because the system suddenly popped up a prompt - [Task 3, Inspiration Value +7.]
He quickly checked the system and found that the inspiration value had indeed increased. Suddenly, he figured it out!
Wang Hao stood up with joy and exclaimed, "It makes sense!" "Professor Wang, what you said makes so much sense!"
Wang Chenglin was a little confused.
Wang Haodao, "Your research is of course valuable. In fact, I have been thinking about this issue and hope to open a bridge between superconducting semitopological theory and traditional condensed matter physics research."
"If we can combine the theories from the two directions, it will definitely bring the research on the mechanism of superconductivity to a new level."
The others nodded in surprise after hearing this.
Wang Chenglin thought about it carefully and suddenly felt blessed. He suddenly found the direction of his research.
The two studies are almost unrelated, but because they are both studies of the theoretical mechanism of superconductivity, they must be connected and cannot be completely unrelated.
As long as you continue to do research from the research direction of condensed matter physics, you will definitely be able to find content related to semi-topological theory.
Thus, connected!
This will definitely be a Nobel-level achievement!
At that time, research in the two directions will gain mutual benefit and bring comprehensive theoretical support to the research on superconducting materials.
"Wang Hao just said it here, not many people know about it." "Hurry up and do research when you get back!"
“The speed of research must be fast to produce results easily.”
Wang Chenglin looked around again and felt that Du Jianwei was his biggest competitor. Du Jianwei also felt the same.
The two looked at each other, and fierce sparks seemed to burst out in the air. Wang Hao was also thinking about this issue.
The third task is to construct a mathematical system of annihilation force. He has been unable to find a new method. Combining the content of superconducting condensed matter physics and continuing to complete relevant mathematical demonstrations is indeed a very suitable direction.
"Complete this research when we get back!" Wang Hao made a decision.
