Although neither the eyes of the public nor the shots of the press conference were locked on me.
But Atsushi Suzuki, who was sitting in the front row, still felt a sense of embarrassment like a ray of light on his back, as if there were three thousand cockroaches crawling around behind him.
He very much doubted whether he had offended the gods in the East, which caused him to suffer such miserable humiliation at the press conference.
Disgraced.jpg.
Although I don't want to admit it.
But deep down in his heart, this old Baga does feel...very regretful.
It seemed that the whole thing had gone wrong since he stood up and interrupted Academician Pan's speech.
First, Academician Pan took advantage of the situation and dragged all institutions into the water.
Then during the calculation process of Witten, Suzuki Atsushi's calculation results were wrong.
Then came the backstab...
Now, Witten actually told him that what he discovered this time was a supersymmetric particle?
How can I support this tmd...
At a very brief moment, Suzuki Atsushi even had an idea:
Why don't you just shout "Board" at the press conference and it will break your heart?
This may also add some obstruction to the Academy of Sciences and affect the rhythm of the live broadcast.
But this idea was finally given up by Suzuki Atsushi. He still cherished his life...
While Suzuki Atsushi was thinking wildly, Academician Pan walked up to Witten and said to him:
"Mr. Witten, congratulations. Your theory is finally supported by experimental phenomena. This is a discovery worthy of being recorded in the history of physics."
"Maybe by the end of next year, I will be able to see the news that you won the Nobel Prize."
Although from a rigorous perspective, the discovery of supersymmetric particles still cannot fully prove Witten's M theory.
The ‘supersymmetric particles’ here refer only to the two discovered by the collision.
But if the family of supersymmetric particles can be expanded in the future, or some deeper connections are discovered with the deepening of supersymmetry research...
Then M theory may not be proven one day.
Just like my old classmate’s theory of relativity.
The original theory of relativity actually only explained the perihelion precession of Mercury.
But later, with the confirmation of many practical phenomena such as Eddington's observation of the light bending of background stars in a total solar eclipse, Walter Adams' measurement of the spectral line shift of Sirius B, the theory of relativity finally ascended to the altar.
before today.
The biggest problem with the Witten M theory is that you can neither provide evidence to confirm it nor falsify it.
So much so that M theory has been limited to a mathematical framework.
Now with the discovery of supersymmetric particles.
M theory finally ushered in a turning point.
This is like an archaeologist guessing that there was an extremely advanced super-ancient civilization 30 million years ago, but he has no evidence to prove this view.
Supersymmetric particles are equivalent to divine light rods, and their energy conversion and other aspects are completely different from existing technology.
Although this thing alone cannot completely prove the existence of that "civilization", it is at least a key piece of evidence.
If you dig along this part, you might be able to find Luluye and Gatanje.
At the same time, what is more subtle is...
Although the calculation process of supersymmetric particles is produced by the Academy of Sciences, the verification process relies on the Chinese collider.
But the person who first noticed the data anomaly was Witten.
In a sense...
Maybe this is God's will.
Facing Academician Pan's congratulations, Witten, who had regained consciousness at this time, looked very low:
"Mr. Pan, you are joking. Not to mention whether supersymmetric particles deserve a Nobel Prize. In this discovery process alone, you are the one who contributed the most."
"So I don't have extravagant hopes for a Nobel Prize or anything like that. I just hope that the next retest process can be completed smoothly. It would be great if a few more supersymmetric particles can be found."
Academician Pan smiled and nodded.
The retest that Witten mentioned has nothing to do with the press conference of the Academy of Sciences, but refers to the retest of supersymmetric particles by the European and American scientific community after the meeting:
Although the accuracy of these two particles is currently very high, the physics community must conduct a re-examination, both for safety reasons and for follow-up research.
After all, the value of supersymmetric particles in the theoretical framework is really too important.
For example, what is its symmetry mechanism?
Are there excitation or escape states?
Do fermions and bosons intersect in other deeper rules?
Not to mention the process of decay of dicharm quarks into gluons, which is also an unprecedented example in the physics world.
Even a little bolder...
Are supersymmetry and supergravity theories related?
After all, the 11-dimensional supergravity theoretical model is also very beautiful, and Mr. Qiu Chengtong originally contributed to this framework.
Therefore, no matter which angle you start from, retesting supersymmetric particles is imperative.
In addition to the LHC, Tevatron will also join the ‘battlefield’.
Think of this.
Academician Pan couldn't help but glance at Hou Xingyuan, who was chatting happily with Carlo Rubbia not far away.
Different from the previous situation.
Erwuzai, who has reached a cooperation agreement with the Academy of Sciences this time, will not exclude the Academy of Sciences from the re-inspection sequence under any circumstances...or rather cannot.
That is to say, this time, the Academy of Sciences can synchronize experimental results and ensure that the Chinese physics community will not be excluded from the emerging research group of supersymmetry.
This is a 'treatment' that was unimaginable in the past. The Academy of Sciences had been isolated and ignored in many particle-related experiments before.
For example, the Higgs particle.
Universities in European and American physics circles obtained detailed information on the Higgs particle as late as the end of June 2013.
However, the Chinese physics community did not obtain core data for the first time until August 2015, a full two years later than Europe and the United States. This was still the result of the green light. The original idea on the other side of the sea was to suppress it until 2017.
When European and American universities studied the magnetic properties of the Higgs particle and the muon, the rabbits were still humming about the autocoupling sum.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In many cases, the blockade imposed by Europe and the United States on us goes far beyond trade. Physics...or the theoretical direction of science is also a hard-hit area.
Just when Academician Pan was slightly lost in thought, Witten said again:
"By the way, Pan, this re-inspection process is really a big thank you to you. I owe you a big favor."
"In the future...or if there is anything I can help with now, just ask, and I will do my best!"
Looking at the sincere face of Witten, Academician Pan suddenly felt happy, but his face remained calm, and he reached out his hand and said:
"Mr. Witten, you are too polite."
"Questioning unknown things and seeking the truth is a quality that every physical person and physical institution should have, regardless of the occasion."
"We will never use this to ask you to give something in return. This is not our Eastern hospitality, so please don't say such things."
Academician Pan's tone was very firm. This was what Hou Xingyuan had explained to him in advance, and it was the will of a higher level.
After all, Witten is just a theoretical physicist in the final analysis. Although he has a high status, he really can't bring much of practical value to Rabbit in a short period of time.
In addition, the benefits gained by the Academy of Sciences today are more than just a little bit, and it will take time to digest them.
Therefore, instead of making certain demands, it is better to openly talk about the matter openly in exchange for Witten's favor.
This kind of favor is not something that the Academy of Sciences can just forget about and ignore it. As the research on supersymmetric particles deepens, Witten's favor will only get bigger and bigger.
After congratulating Witten.
Academician Pan did not forget about the business, and returned to the podium step by step under the focus of the camera.
Although it has only been more than three hours since I last spoke at the podium.
But at this time, Academician Pan's heart was filled with a completely different emotion.
His mood evolved from the initial "Witten is causing trouble" to "the academy can watch the show", and then to "this is going to happen" when the academy team got the results.
Then there was the "this situation is stable" in the reporting stage of particle collision, and finally it turned into "I'll make a profit from this" when I learned that it was a supersymmetric particle.
The ups and downs are like riding a roller coaster.
fortunately......
Now the dust has settled.
Think of this.
Academician Pan couldn't help but take a deep breath and said in Chinese again:
"My colleagues at the scene, media guests, and audience friends outside the venue, everyone has been waiting for a long time."
"First of all, I would like to announce something that I am honored to announce."
"That's based on the experiment. We did find one...no, I should say two undiscovered particles near the 950GeV interval."
"Now please give your warmest applause to Professor Witten and all the guests in the first row. This is a computing experiment that will be recorded in history!"
The words just fell.
The audience burst into warm applause.
Academician Pan did not mention the Academy of Sciences at all in his words, but the Academy of Sciences is everywhere.
At the same time, for the sake of safety, Academician Pan did not directly announce that the supersymmetric particles discovered this time were supersymmetrical particles. Although the current accuracy is as high as 99.9999%, it is safest to wait for re-examination in Europe and the United States to be successful.
Anyway, although it was not mentioned at this time, when the benefits were finally distributed, no one could ignore the existence of the Academy.
Seeing the torrential applause from the audience, Academician Pan's mood increased a lot, and his eyes turned slightly red.
He is not excited about his personal honors, but is happy for the Chinese physics community.
After today.
The Chinese high-energy physics community finally has the right to define the field of particles.
More importantly...
This is a press conference for people across the country.
Although the same 99.9999% of the audience may not understand the specific process, they can understand one thing:
This press conference was an unprecedented success, and it showed off its presence in front of foreign veterans.
This has an unprecedented stimulating effect on national self-confidence, and it is the most important gain on the spiritual level.
Even in Academician Pan's heart, there is still a small flame beating slightly:
Is it possible that today...is the beginning of the take-off of the Chinese physics community?
This idea is really scary and bold, and even goes beyond the so-called obscene category, so much so that Academician Pan only scratched the surface of it.
But on the other hand.
His perceptual thinking kept whispering in his heart:
What if?
What if this is really the case?
How beautiful that would be...
Under Academician Pan's misty eyes, the applause at the scene fell silent again.
See this situation.
Academician Pan temporarily put all his thoughts behind him.
I saw him pretending to sort out the manuscripts in front of him a few times, but in fact he took the opportunity to quickly adjust his mentality and continued:
"Of course, the two new particles have not yet been officially named, and other related properties require more in-depth testing."
"So in the coming days, the Academy of Sciences will also maintain contact with the relevant parties. For relevant information, you can follow the public account 'Novice Fisherman' and the Douyin account 'Wu Ming Xiao Pujie'."
"At this stage, our press conference has almost reached its final chapter."
Hear what Academician Pan said.
The scene fell silent again, and the barrage in the live broadcast room also decreased a lot.
In the huge main venue of the press conference, only Academician Pan’s voice echoed in the room:
"To be honest, before this press conference started, we were under a lot of pressure from our peers, the media, and public opinion."
"When many people hear about the sponsor of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, they think that we will never discover dark matter."
"But what the public doesn't understand is that in the past few years, the Chinese physics community has actually produced many outstanding results."
"For example, Academician Wang Yifang, Academician Xue Qikun, Academician Luo Jun, Professor Feng Bo, etc..."
While Academician Pan was speaking.
The camera also turned to several Chinese physicists in the audience.
The first person targeted by the camera was Academician Wang Yifang. At this time, his face was as serious as ever.
His achievements need no introduction.
On his right is Academician Xue Qikun, the discoverer of the quantum anomalous Hall effect.
Although there is some controversy over Academician Xue Qikun's position as president of Southern University of Science and Technology, many people think that Academician Xue Qikun, who has strong local sentiments, is a bit "local" and does not match the temperament of Southern University of Science and Technology in pursuit of internationalization.
But this is a personnel issue.
In terms of academic achievements, he is still the person closest to the Nobel Prize in China.
Then the screen turned again, showing Academician Luo Jun in the row behind them.
As we all know.
The universal gravitational constant G is actually a very complex value. It is approximated in the textbook as 6.67x10-^11 N·m2/kg2.
However, in the calculation of microscopic particles, the accuracy requirements of this value are extremely high.
It can be said like this.
Every time the accuracy of the gravitational constant G is improved, it is an innovation in particle physics.
Since humans discovered the microscopic world, although the accuracy of G in data has been optimized, it may be 0.352 today and 0.351 tomorrow.
But in terms of the concept of "magnitude", G has only been optimized seven times.
Among them, the most recent one-level optimization was done by Academician Luo Jun.
In 2018, he used the precision torsion balance period method to measure the gravitational constant G, which raised the current international upper limit of photon rest mass by more than one order of magnitude. It has been included in the International Elementary Particle Data Group twice and is still ranked first in the world.
Although somewhat similar to Academician Xue Qikun.
Academician Luo Jun was not well received when he was the president of Sun Yat-sen University. When he left office, it can be said that he was a little lonely and even criticized by everyone, and he was indeed inappropriate in some campus policies.
But it’s still the same sentence:
A person's personnel management ability has nothing to do with his academic research level.
In terms of contributions to physics, Academician Luo Jun can still firmly rank among the top three in China's theoretical physics community.
Then the camera pans again.
The figures of professors Feng Bo, Xu Zhan, He Song and others were recorded on the screen.
Perhaps the vast majority of viewers will just glance past these scholars when they see them.
But with the current tens of millions of viewers, there are bound to be many viewers who choose to search for the contributions of these people.
Then they will discover one thing:
Oh, it turns out that the Chinese physics community really didn’t make any contributions at all...
As long as one in 10,000 people do this, Academician Pan's words will not be in vain.
Then Academician Pan paused, looked around the audience again, and said:
"Of course, due to information barriers, many people outside the industry are not aware of some developments in the industry."
"But today, with the discovery of Pangea particle dark matter and these two supersymmetric particles, I can proudly announce..."
"The Chinese physics community now not only has the ability to discover dark matter, but also has the ability to calculate another group of unknown particles on-site, and even... more!"
Finished.
Academician Pan's eyes quickly glanced at Atsushi Suzuki, Bruce Arnall and others, and he said pointedly:
"So on behalf of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I would like to thank some colleagues for giving us one... no, I should say two opportunities to report on the performance."
"After the meeting, we will 'randomly' select some colleagues in the industry and present them with blessing postcards jointly written by well-known domestic anchors Huang Xudong, Guan Zeyuan and well-known writer Da Yanzhu. We wish your families good health and that each institution will be able to do well every month.
We will produce new results, so please don’t refuse.”
I heard what Academician Pan said.
Suzuki Atsushi and others in the audience were slightly startled, then they forced a smile and clapped their hands dryly.
Xu Yun: "......"
Do not know why.
A famous quote from Teacher Gao Xiumin suddenly rang in his mind:
"He still has to thank us..."
After giving away the ‘welfare’.
Academician Pan has pretty much said everything he needs to say.
In fact, according to the normal press conference process, Hou Xingyuan should take the stage next and say some official polite words.
However, in order to verify whether Witten's conjecture was correct, the press conference had consumed more than five extra hours, and it was already approaching 7 p.m.
Considering that many elders' energy and even physical strength have been exhausted, the Academy of Sciences decided to temporarily delete Hou Xingyuan's speech.
Therefore, it was Academician Pan who finally finished the work:
"Dear guests on site and audience friends outside the venue, it is now 6:38 pm, Yanjing time, and the press conference has been close to ten hours since the beginning."
"We have an old saying in China that there is no banquet that lasts forever, and now it's almost time for the banquet to end."
After speaking, Academician Pan paused for a few seconds, and his voice suddenly rose:
"I am honored to announce that the press conference on dark matter results of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has officially concluded successfully!"
"Next, all guests are asked to leave the scene in an orderly manner under the guidance of the staff. We have arranged a rich dinner at their respective hotels, such as the spicy Chengdu hot pot strongly requested by the Mexican delegation, etc..."
As Academician Pan finished speaking.
Hundreds of Chinese scholars stood up in the audience instantly, arranging their palms vigorously.
Another moment passed.
Representatives from all parties were a little slower and stood up one after another to applaud.
Yang Lao,
Witten,
higgs,
Lu Chaoyang,
Tian Liangwei,
Xu Yun......
The applause lasted for a long time.
Academy press conference....
This ends!
.....
Note:
The QQ group exploded again, and my QQ was also banned. What are you talking about? Others opened new groups because the group members were full, but I opened a new group because the old group exploded...
