Chapter 933: The last coupling constant of the unified theory of strong electricity
In mid-May, Xinghai Research Institute officially held a press conference.
Weng Yunzong, director of the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, personally presided over the meeting and announced to the public that the Fuyao space shuttle had arrived in the low-Earth orbit of Mars and had sent back the first batch of photos and detection data.
At the same time, a set of photos taken on Mars were also updated simultaneously on the official website of the institute and the accounts of major platforms, attracting the attention of many netizens.
On the scarf, Xu Chuan also selected a few of the most representative pictures and posted them on his blog.
One after another, ultra-high-definition images show countless netizens the real scenery of Mars, a familiar yet mysterious planet.
Aerial view of Olympus Mons, Mariner Grand Canyon, Antarctic dry ice cap, Victoria Crater... These unique landforms on Mars have aroused the interest of many netizens.
【Front row! First!】
[Oh my god, has God remembered his bib account password?]
[This is...a photo of Mars? Don’t tell me, Mr. Kaishen, that you went to Mars? Damn it?]
[It’s impossible. Manned landing on Mars has not yet been realized. How can the country let him go to Mars? These are photos taken by Fuyao, the space shuttle launched at the end of March. 】
[Trivia, Sichuan God is only 27 years old this year, which is probably younger than most of you here, let alone an old man.]
[Hahahahaha...Gan! He froze when he smiled, damn it! Someone else is twenty-seven years old!]
[I remember that manned landing on the moon seems to be coming soon. Didn’t Sichuan God say June before? 】
[Does Sichuan God still hold lottery draws? Let me go to the moon to work! I can mix mortar and cement!]
[The roc rises with the wind in one day and soars ninety thousand miles! Our journey is the stars and the sea!]
...
With one stone, the news that the Fuyao space shuttle had arrived in the low-Earth orbit of Mars was quickly spread through major media, attracting the attention of countless netizens.
Regarding this planet that humans have been full of longing for and fantasy about since ancient times, many netizens are discussing whether there has ever been life on Mars, or even Martians.
Even abroad, there are many research institutions, biologists and ordinary people who are paying attention to this matter.
If it were in the past, a large number of people might think this is absurd and impossible.
Mars, which has no magnetic field, atmosphere, and water source, is desolate. It is theoretically impossible for life to evolve.
However, the paleontological fossils discovered on the moon a few months ago have changed many people's views on extraterrestrial life.
Compared with Mars, the moon's environment is harsher and harsher, making it theoretically more difficult for life to evolve.
However, the Xinghai Research Institute's discovery in the lunar south pole cave has broken the conventional understanding that life is difficult to evolve in harsh environments.
Perhaps carbon-based life needs water, oceans, and a relatively stable ecological environment.
However, silicon-based, sulfur-based and other life forms other than carbon-based life may require completely different evolutionary environments.
Planets like the Moon, which are far more hostile than Mars, were able to evolve microorganisms in ancient times. It is difficult to say that life does not exist on Mars.
In particular, Mars still has a circulating atmosphere and a large amount of water resources, although there is quite little confirmed data for both.
For example, its atmosphere is mainly composed of carbon dioxide, and its density is less than one percent of the Earth's atmosphere. However, like the Earth, it is extremely fluid.
For example, water resources also exist at the north and south poles of Mars.
In particular, previous detection results have shown that there is a large amount of water resources underground on Mars, which may even be enough to cover the entire planet's surface.
These are facts that were confirmed by many detectors such as the Curiosity and Perseverance rover of the United States and the Zhurong of China as early as a few years ago, or even more than ten years ago.
These all mean that the environment of Mars is more suitable for the evolution of life than that of the Moon.
It is also something that everyone is looking forward to. Extraterrestrial life (living) that has not yet been discovered on the moon may be found on Mars.
.......
On the other side, Jinling, Xinghai Research Institute.
After returning from the Aerospace Research Institute, Xu Chuan downloaded the first batch of Mars exploration data and flipped through it in his office.
What the outside world expects is also what he expects.
The existence of ancient life on the moon can now be confirmed, not just because biological research institutions in other countries have recognized this matter after carefully studying sample fossils.
This is especially because they subsequently found other microbial fossils of the same type in other caves in the Antarctic lunar surface.
This means that the fossils discovered in the past few months are not special structures formed by geological activities, but are formed by relatively widely distributed microorganisms.
This is huge good news for humans to explore extraterrestrial life.
Especially for searching for extraterrestrial life in the solar system, the corresponding conditions can be relaxed a lot.
For example, Mars, Jupiter's satellite Europa, Mercury, etc. From the perspective of conditions, these planets have an environment more suitable for the evolution of life than the moon.
Of course, for Xu Chuan, searching for life or traces of life in these numerous and messy detection data is just a matter of course.
This kind of work does not have much technical content and requires a lot of scholars or computing power to analyze it.
He looked through these photos and information, partly out of interest.
After all, it is the images and data collected by the spacecraft launched by our own company. In addition, the detection technology is more developed than it has been in more than ten years, and the information collected is more complete.
On the other hand, from these data, he extracted the data he needed to transform Mars.
For example, the thickness and total amount of Mars' atmosphere; the size and total amount of carbon dioxide, methane, oxygen, the area covered by dry ice at the North and South Pole, etc.
These data will be compiled into a detailed file, and he will fill in all the required data bit by bit through continuous Mars exploration.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Including the internal structure of Mars, the temperature of the earth's core, the thickness of the earth's crust, the fluidity of the mantle... and other data involving all aspects.
.
Through these data, he can build a simulation mathematical model based on this, and then use supercomputing to determine how likely Mars is to be transformed, and what the modified Martian environment will be like.
After all, it is impossible for him to directly convince all countries to join this huge super project with just one word.
And if Mars is not suitable for large-scale transformation, this also needs data to support it.
What he is doing now is the preliminary preparation work.
.......
In the office, working with academic assistant Xiao Ling, Xu Chuan efficiently found the parameters he needed from the huge detection data and entered them into the system that had been prepared.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the desk vibrated.
He casually touched the phone and glanced at the screen. It was Lin Feng calling.
Seeing the name of the incoming call, Xu Chuan thought about it, moved his thumb across the screen and quickly answered the call: "Hello, Lin Feng."
"Good news! The last important core prediction constant in the unified theory of strong electricity has been determined through the collision experiment!" Lin Feng's excited voice came over as soon as the call was connected.
Hearing the good news, Xu Chuan also put a smile on his face, put down the mouse and asked: "Will the acceptance report be held? Which team completed it?"
Lin Feng smiled and replied: "It was jointly completed by Shanghai Jiaotong University and the University of Singapore."
"Judging from the acceptance report application data submitted by the other party, the confidence level has reached 5.2sigma. The time for the acceptance report meeting has not yet been determined. I only received the news more than ten minutes ago."
Xu Chuan said quickly: "Send me a copy of the acceptance data. The specific time for the acceptance report meeting will be held after I read it and then contact you."
Hearing this, Lin Feng reacted quickly and asked with some surprise: "You want to come over?"
Xu Chuan smiled and nodded, saying: "Well, this is the last important core prediction constant. I definitely need to go there. Not only the acceptance of the unified theory of strong electricity, but also the follow-up experimental arrangements of the CRHPC institution, these are very important
important."
In addition to completing the core verification work of the unified theory of strong electricity, he also went through the acceptance work of subsequent collision experiments.
Of course, he must have read the acceptance report data, and also participated in the acceptance report meeting via remote video.
But all in all, since the verification work of the coupling constant of strong electric symmetry breaking was completed, his focus has not been on the CRHPC institution.
After spending more than a year, several basic coupling prediction constants in strong electric theory have finally been fully verified.
Although it took a little longer, after all, if he personally led the team, Xu Chuan was confident that the time to verify these coupling constants could be shortened to half a year.
But this is not entirely in line with his and the country's original intention of building a collider.
Basic disciplines indeed need to be developed, but they cannot rely on him alone.
The most important mission of large-scale scientific research equipment such as the Large Strong Particle Collider is naturally to explore the laws and truths of physics.
But apart from that, its most important mission is to cultivate talents.
In this kind of scientific research institution that gathers the world's top physicists, there are endless meetings and lectures every day, and sparks of the most cutting-edge knowledge of physics can be collided at any time.
During this period of time, he did not focus on theoretical physics. On the one hand, he had too many things at hand and couldn't leave.
On the other hand, I want to leave more opportunities for other domestic scholars and cultivate domestic physics talents.
And just as he planned, completing the verification of the coupling constants of the unified theory of strong electricity has brought at least more than three digits of scholars in the country who have a certain understanding of the unified theory of strong electricity, and has brought at least more than two digits of in-depth knowledge of the theory.
Scholars who understand.
These were all those who made important contributions to the verification of coupling constants during the collision experiment. He had a detailed list in his hand.
Judging from the current development, building a collider is definitely worth it.

PS: There will be another chapter later. It’s the beginning of the month. The bosses are asking for monthly tickets. The protagonist has been working on the application for so long and finally wants to return to theory and continue to show off~(??????)??
