Facing Xu Yun's suggestion, Faraday gently touched his chin with his thumb, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes.
be honest.
Putting one's own name in front of a certain phenomenon or new substance is like a succubus in a short movie, and few scientists can resist its temptation.
For any scientist, this is a supreme honor.
The so-called feedback about good or bad character is not the matter itself, but whether the naming method is legitimate or not.
If everything is fair and clear.
So even the Mavericks, a top guy who always loves this level, will not refuse this good reputation.
For example, the famous Newton's rings, or the element einsteinium with atomic number 99 - this is named after Lao Ai's surname.
In addition, Einstein is also the unit of energy contained in photons. The energy of 1 mol of photons is called 1 Einstein, represented by the symbol u.
Another example is the Higgs particle, etc...
Throughout the history of science.
As long as the means are justified, few people would be dissatisfied with naming a phenomenon after themselves.
Of course.
Except Poisson.
Now Faraday learned that the 'Fat Fish' did not name the special particles, and there was no similar concept in the East. In addition, Xu Yun also took the initiative to propose the idea of 'Fara particles'...
It is obviously impossible for Faraday not to be moved.
But on the other hand, Faraday also knew one thing very well:
That is to say, in this experiment, I was only an operator at most, and if I shared 20% to 30% of the credit, it would be overwhelming, and the big share would definitely go to the fat fish.
This is a bottom line issue.
Think of this.
Faraday pondered for a moment, made a decision in his heart, and said to Xu Yun:
"Classmate Luo Feng, I'm not being modest. I just did a small amount of work in the experiment and I don't deserve such a big credit."
"So I think how about this, classmate Luo Feng, how about naming it after you?"
Xu Yun was stunned:
"I?"
Faraday nodded and continued:
"You are a descendant of Mr. Fatty Fish, and this experiment was recreated with your hands, so I might as well name it after you, Luo Feng, and call it Luo Li..."
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Before Faraday could finish the second half of his sentence, a large stream of cold sweat broke out on Xu Yun's forehead, and he waved his hands crazily:
"Professor Faraday, this name is absolutely unacceptable!"
Faraday looked at him in surprise, frowned and asked:
"Why not? Don't you like Luo Li?"
Xu Yun didn't explain much, but still shook his head firmly:
"Don't ask, this word is really bad. It's even better than Uzi."
joke
Maybe there is nothing wrong with the word Luo Li, but if you add expressions such as 'Luo Li is really interesting' and 'We will continue to study Luo Li today', it will easily trigger the 404 method...
Therefore, no matter what, Faraday's idea cannot be implemented.
"Professor Faraday, why don't you hire someone else..."
"That can't be called Faraday. I can't take the credit from Mr. Fatty Fish. This is a great disrespect to the predecessors!"
"Abba, Abba, Abba..."
at the same time.
Seeing the dispute between the two over naming rights, Gauss suddenly spoke:
"Michael, classmate Luo Feng, I have an idea. How about you listen to me for a few words?"
Xu Yun and Faraday had not raised their heads at this time. After hearing this, they both stopped arguing and looked at Gauss at the same time.
Gauss coughed slightly and said slowly:
"Michael didn't want to take all the credit alone, but Mr. Fat Fish didn't leave a similar naming, which led to your differences in opinions, right?"
Xu Yun and Faraday looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Gauss smiled again and adjusted his glasses. The lenses reflected a wise light in the sunlight shining into the room:
"In that case, why not just take one syllable from each of Mr. Fat Fish's and Michael's names and create a compound word?"
As he spoke, he came to the desk and picked up a pen and paper.
Wrote the names of Fat Fish and Faraday:
Feiyu.
Michael Faraday.
Then he circled the syllables 'fei' and 'Fa' and wrote another word underneath:
Feifa.(actually should be Féifa, Armenian)
After writing this word, Gauss put down his pen and said to Xu Yun and Faraday:
"The word Feifa means 'limit' and 'boundary' in Armenian, and it just so happens that this unknown particle also fits this concept."
"It has both moral and commemorative significance, so I think we should just call it Feifa particle."
"Feifa?"
Faraday repeated the word, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.
The name includes both Feiyu and himself. At the same time, the expression form of Feiyu first also reflects Feiyu’s dominant position in the particle discovery process.
Therefore, he couldn't help but look at Xu Yun and asked:
"It seems to be a good name, what do you think, classmate Luo Feng?"
Xu Yun:
"...."
At first glance, the word Feifa sounds like the pronunciation of the later International Football Federation.
That is the abbreviation FIFA of Fédération Internationale de Football Association.
But compared to Luo Li, this word is undoubtedly much more normal...
In addition, as Gauss said, the meaning of this word is surprisingly close to the concept of electrons.
What a wonderful coincidence...
Think of this.
Xu Yun no longer hesitated and said to Gauss:
"Professor Gauss, I have no objection either."
Gauss snapped his fingers when he saw this, obviously a little happy with his idea:
"Bingo!"
Ever since.
Feifa.
This word, which is a mixture of Chinese and Western characters, is officially the name of "electron" in this space and time.

After naming the unknown particles... or Feifa particles, everyone's task today is officially concluded:
The preparation of piezoelectric ceramics takes a day just to dry and rest. Counting other pre-preparation processes, it takes at least two or three days to get the actual product out of the oven.
So it's very fast.
Faraday called it quits.
Xu Yun also packed up his things and left the laboratory with Xiaomai and Babbage Ada.
As a result, he had just taken a few steps when a voice came from behind him:
"Classmate Luo Feng, please stay!"
Please stay.
These three words had a very special destructive power on later generations of Internet writers like Xu Yun, so he subconsciously stopped and turned his head to look behind him.
fine.
The one who came behind was not some Black Panther knight, but Riemann, the fat guy.
I saw Riemann trotting to Xu Yun's side, panting for a few breaths, and said:
"Classmate Luo Feng, the teacher wants to see you for something."
Xu Yun was slightly stunned and asked:
"Professor Gauss is looking for me? Did he say something?"
Riemann nodded and glanced at the three wheat people beside Xu Yun:
"You will know the specific situation when you arrive."
Babbage had been busy with investment matters almost every day in the past few years, and naturally developed the ability to observe people's emotions.
Seeing that Riemann kept looking in his direction, he immediately said to Xu Yun:
"Since Professor Gauss has something to ask you, classmate Luo Feng, just go with Mr. Riemann."
"Classmate Maxwell, Ada, let's leave first."
After saying that, he glanced at Xiaomai and Ada and left the scene quickly.
Although Xiaomai was very naive, he was not a fool. Seeing this, he hurriedly said to Xu Yun, "See you back in the dormitory." Then he turned around and followed him.
Xu Yun watched the three of them go away. After they lost their bodies around the corner, he said to Riemann:
"Then Mr. Riemann, could you please lead the way?"
Riemann nodded and led Xu Yun in another direction.
Xu Yun and Riemann were now considered acquaintances, and it was not boring to talk while walking along the way.
A few minutes later.
Xu Yun saw Gauss waiting on the other side of the building.
Riemann carried Xu Yun forward and said respectfully:
"Teacher, I brought classmate Luo Feng."
Gauss nodded to him:
"Thank you for your help, Bornhard."
Riemann had already received Gauss' instructions in advance. Seeing that he had completed the task, he said simply:
"Then teacher, I won't disturb you for now."
After saying that, he patted Xu Yun on the shoulder, bowed to Gauss, turned around and walked out.
Gauss was obviously very relieved about his disciple, and without even looking at Riemann, he turned to Xu Yun and said:
"Come with me, classmate Luo Feng."
Xu Yun followed obediently.
The two walked for a while in the other direction, and after about ten minutes, they arrived outside a quiet forest.
Hidden among the green woods is a small two-story building. The decoration is not elegant, but it is elegant and exquisite.
The white-gray mud walls combined with the light red roof tiles can't help but make people feel comfortable.
There is also a small garden enclosed by a fence outside the building. The grass is lush and green, in a proper petty bourgeoisie style.
It is clear.
This attic was the temporary residence set up by Cambridge University for Gauss.
Then Gauss led Xu Yun to the entrance, took out the key and opened the door:
"come in."
In line with the decorative style outside the house, the interior is also exquisite and elegant. The large windows make the house full of light, which is especially comfortable in winter.
After entering the house.
Gauss led Xu Yun straight through the hall and came to the door of a side room.
Crunch——
Gauss pushed the door open and Xu Yun quickly saw what was going on inside:
This is a study room of about twenty square meters. The bookcases are made of mahogany, but there are not many books in it.
In addition, there is a desk, a chair and a small sofa on the right wall for entertaining guests.
After entering the house.
Gauss still did not speak, but motioned to Xu Yun to close the door.
Then he walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a leather box, and said to Xu Yun:
"Classmate Luo Feng, help me move the box...to the sofa."
Xu Yun said yes, quickly came to Gauss's side, picked up the suitcase and put it on the sofa.
The suitcase weighed about twenty or thirty kilograms. With Xu Yun's body, he needed both hands to lift it. No wonder Faraday called him for help.
After Xu Yun has moved the boxes.
Gauss leaned down and entered the password on the password lock:
114514.
Click——
The suitcase opened with a sound.
Xu Yun stood aside with a well-behaved face.JPG, but he kept looking dishonestly into the suitcase from the corner of his eyes.
I saw a pile of calculation papers and books in Gauss's precious suitcase. What Xu Yun saw were English, French, Arabic and other languages, filling the entire space.
Then Gauss stood up, pointed into the box and said:
"Classmate Luo Feng, you can start."
After hearing this meaningless sentence, Xu Yun couldn't help but have a question mark on his face:
"?"
Gauss raised his chin in a certain direction and explained:
"Didn't Michael say that the principle of piezoelectric ceramics you wrote can be exchanged for five volumes of my manuscript."
"I have already negotiated terms with Michael just now, so I asked Bornhard to find you."
"Most of my manuscripts are still in Göttingen, but the really important ones are kept in this box with me, so be careful not to damage them when you turn them over."
Xu Yun suddenly realized.
I see......
He was still wondering why Riemann appeared at that time - they had just left the laboratory not long ago. If Gauss really wanted to ask him something, he could have spoken directly before leaving the laboratory.
During that time, Gauss was negotiating terms with Faraday...
Think of this.
Xu Yun could not help but feel curious, and asked Gauss:
"Professor Gauss, I wonder what the terms you have negotiated with Professor Faraday are..."
Gauss glanced at him and raised the corner of his mouth slightly:
"In one week, Michael will add three more chapters."
