Xiao Weihao left with his people, and before leaving, he tidied up Zhang Shengying's laboratory as if no one had ever come in. Qin Hai clearly saw that the two socks Lu Xiaotong wore were not the same color, and he was obviously not the kind to do housework.
He is a human being, but his ability to disguise the scene is impressive. This can be regarded as a specialization in the art.
With the files copied from Liu Jun's computer, Qin Hai returned to Tranquility's residence. Although the name was unfair, it was already their home. When Qin Hai came in, Tranquility was busy.
While cooking, when she saw Qin Hai coming back, she asked anxiously: "How's it going? Did you find out anything?"
"Your name is Serenity?" Qin Hai asked Jing Jing with a smile.
Jing Jing blushed and said, "Those are the nicknames those boys gave me behind my back. They thought I didn't know... By the way, why did you think of asking this?"
"In Liu Jun's computer, a file named Serenity was found. We guess that this file is related to you." Qin Hai said.
"What's in the file?" Ning Jing asked.
Qin Hai shook his head: "Liu Jun wrote the document on another computer and then brought it to the laboratory on a floppy disk to print. Unless Liu Jun's personal computer is searched, the contents cannot be determined."
"That's right..." Jing Jing frowned, "When did it happen?"
"A month ago." Qin Hai said.
"A month ago?" Ning Jing thought about it seriously, and then said: "When you said that, I remembered it. Liu Jun hadn't chatted with me for a long time, and he suddenly asked me about it more than a month ago.
Regarding writing my graduation thesis, I was also asked if I had submitted any manuscripts to international journals recently."
"How did you answer?" Qin Hai asked.
"I didn't think much about it, so I told him about my experimental situation at that time, and that I had just written an article and was going to submit it to the magazine Superconductivity," Ning Jing said.
"Is it about samarium iron and arsenic?" Qin Hai asked.
"Yes, how do you know?" Ning Jing said in surprise. She would occasionally discuss academic matters with Qin Hai, but since she had already done a lot in iron-based superconductivity, Qin Hai's knowledge was no longer enough.
Communicate with her, so she did not tell Qin Hai about the situation of samarium oxyferrite and arsenic. Qin Hai was able to ask this question. It was obviously related to Liu Jun.
Qin Hai took out a three-inch floppy disk from his pocket and said: "We found several papers on samarium oxide iron and arsenic in Liu Jun's computer, which were printed at the same time as the article called Chromium."
"Let me see." Jing Jing took off the apron she wore when cooking, wiped her hands, grabbed the floppy disk from Qin Hai's hand, and ran to her computer.
"Research on the magnetic properties of samarium iron and arsenic..." Ning Jing flipped through Liu Jun's article and frowned. "How could he conduct experiments in this area? This has nothing to do with his research direction."
"Does he want to plagiarize your ideas, publish a paper before you...and then accuse you of plagiarism?" Qin Hai speculated wildly. Accusing a scholar of plagiarism can be said to be the most effective dirty trick.
.If a scholar is tainted with the word "plagiarism", his academic future is basically over, and his previous academic reputation will be wiped out.
If Liu Jun can publish an article with similar content before Ning Jing, then Ning Jing's subsequent articles will be suspected of plagiarism. However, this kind of trick is difficult to withstand scrutiny. The big names in academia are somewhat discerning.
It is clear to everyone who can produce what kind of results. It is difficult to accept that Ning Jing plagiarized the ideas of a doctoral student who has never been exposed to iron-based materials in the research of iron-based materials.
Ning Jing carefully read several of Liu Jun's articles, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like what you guessed. Liu Jun's articles cannot be regarded as papers, they are just experimental reports. He just repeated what I did.
He has gone through several experiments, not to mention the most core ones. Also, the results he obtained are obviously different from mine, so this is obviously something he did wrong..."
"You said the results are different?" Qin Hai asked sensitively.
"Yes." Jing Jing said. She opened a file of her own and pointed it to Qin Hai: "Look, the result of my experiment is such a curve. His result is completely different from mine. The two curves are completely inconsistent.
.”
"Is it the same experiment?" Qin Hai said.
"Judging from his description, the experimental design is exactly the same." Jing Jing said.
"The same design produces completely different results, which cannot even be explained by experimental errors. This is the problem." Qin Hai muttered in his mouth. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Jing Jing and asked: "Why do you say it is?
Is he wrong? Why can't it be you?"
"How could I be wrong?" Jing Jing said angrily. "I have done so much research after all. If even a magnetic property experiment is done wrong, then don't apply for a Ph.D. and go back to study for an undergraduate degree.
"
"Liu Jun is also a doctor of superconductivity, why would he be wrong?" Qin Hai said.
"Yeah..." Jing Jing was a little puzzled. Measuring the magnetic properties of materials is not a complicated experiment, especially for those of them who are engaged in superconducting. They have to do this experiment every day. Occasionally, they will make one or two mistakes.
It can be explained, but it is unjustifiable to get a completely wrong result.
"What if there is a problem with the experimental equipment?" Qin Hai prompted.
"What can go wrong with the experimental equipment?" Jing Jing said, "It's just a magnetometer... By the way, I remembered that if Liu Jun had done this set of experiments, the magnetometer he used should also be our experiment.
The one in the laboratory is the same one I use. At that time, he said that Teacher Zhang’s magnetometer was malfunctioning and he wanted to borrow it from our laboratory. Teacher Zhang came forward to talk to Teacher Chen, and Teacher Chen agreed.
.”
"That's it." Qin Hai nodded. Although he didn't have conclusive evidence yet, he could already guess the mystery behind it.
"What do you mean?" Ning Jing asked cutely. She had been in the laboratory for too long and had no idea about the dangers of the human heart. Speaking of which, Ning Zhongying was cunning and cunning.
A delicate heart with seven orifices, but not a single bit of it was passed down to a pair of children. Whether it was Ningmo or Tranquility, they were all loyal and honest people. They would be dumbfounded when they encountered some conspiracy.
"It's hard to say now. After dinner, let's go and redo your experiment." Qin Hai said.
"Then what's the point of eating? Let's go now." Jing Jing was anxious. Something was hanging in her mind. How could she still have the appetite to eat? If she didn't figure this out, she wouldn't be able to taste the best food.
Qin Hai had no choice but to put on a sad face, grabbed the car keys, and went out with Jing Jing.
The two people drove to the Superconducting Center and headed straight for Ning Jing's laboratory. It was noon and everyone had gone to the cafeteria to eat. The laboratory was empty and there were no outsiders. Ning Jing didn't need Qin Hai's instructions and directly picked up the materials from the material cabinet.
He took out the test piece of samarium iron and arsenic, turned on the magnetometer, and began to repeat the experiments he had done in the past. Qin Hai also had a background in materials and was no stranger to this kind of experiment, so he helped her on the side, and also
Observe her operation process carefully and judge whether there are any mistakes.
The entire experiment was done perfectly, and Qin Hai's professional vision could not see anything wrong. Ning Jing entered the experimental data into the computer, called up the software and typed a series of commands, and a curve appeared on the screen. Qin Hai looked at it intently.
Go and find that this curve is no different from the results obtained by Ning Jing before, but it is quite different from Liu Jun's results.
"Look, right?" Ning Jing pointed at the screen and said to Qin Hai, "How could I do such a simple experiment wrong?"
"Don't worry, let's try changing the device." Qin Hai said calmly.
"Why?" Jing Jing said in surprise.
"Let's talk after we finish," Qin Hai said.
There were many laboratories in the research center. Qin Hai called the administrator and asked him to take the key to open the door of Du Xiangwang's laboratory, and then ordered Ning Jing to do the same experiment again with Du Xiangwang's magnetometer.
"Huh?"
Just after two or three data came out, Jing Jing's expression changed. Using the same materials and the same experimental steps, the results obtained on Du Xiangwang's magnetometer were completely different from those she had done before. These data were very different from what she had done before.
She was very familiar with it, and she could tell the difference just by looking at it, and the difference was definitely not a normal experimental error.
"Teacher Du's magnetometer is broken?" Jing Jing said. Before Qin Hai could answer, she had already reacted: "No, the magnetometer in our laboratory is broken!"
At this point, if Jing Jing still can't think of anything wrong, then her doctorate will just be paid for. The magnetometer in Jing Jing's laboratory has different readings from the magnetometer in another laboratory, and before that
Liu Jun, who was suspected of being harmful to Ning Jing, borrowed a magnetometer and secretly conducted a set of comparison experiments. He obtained results that were different from Ning Jing's, but kept it secret. How could there be no conspiracy in this?
Obviously, Liu Jun must have played tricks on the magnetometer in Ning Jing's laboratory, causing Ning Jing to obtain a completely wrong set of results. If Ning Jing uses such results to participate in the defense of his doctoral thesis, it will be considered data distortion. If anyone is interested,
If you add some provocation, you can completely elevate the nature of this matter to academic fraud.
As a doctor who is about to graduate, academic fraud is also a fatal blow. Once this accusation is confirmed, the academic committee must revoke her degree and deprive her of the qualification to apply for a degree in the future. In other words, this matter
It's enough to keep her from turning around forever.
As for the article Liu Jun previously printed in the laboratory, combined with the fact that he once asked Ning Ning about his submission, it can be guessed that this must be a report letter to the "Superconducting" magazine, and the contents are also conceivable.
The entire plan can be described as exhaustive and extremely vicious. Unfortunately, only one thing was left out, and that was Qin Hai. (To be continued.)
