The distinguished academic committee is scattered in the beautiful lecture hall, a little here and a little there.
Mainly highlights the looseness of an organization.
Several academicians on the academic committee didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with this "spicy soup with pepper noodles" sitting method. Tang Qinglong seemed to be very used to such a scene.
Mu Zhiran and Lu Chen stood on the stage holding thick documents, hesitant and confused.
"Relax, we are not devils." A lady in the audience presided over the meeting, "Did Academician Tang tell you about the content of this meeting?"
"Well..." Mu Zhiran nodded hesitantly, but what exactly did Academician Tang say before... She no longer remembers this.
"The committee has conducted a detailed review of your research content, and I believe Academician Tang has conveyed some of our opinions to you." The woman said into the microphone in front of her, "How is the progress of your experiments? What's new?
Did you find it?"
"There are some findings." Mu Zhiran said, "In the samples we have tested so far, all the electrons outside the lithium atoms spin downward."
"Can it be confirmed that these electrons are in an entangled state?" About 200 meters away, an academician with white hair interrupted and asked, "Can applying a magnetic field to these electrons change the state of other electrons?"
"This is not how electron entanglement is proven." Another academician interrupted his colleague's speech, "Testing the quantum state by applying variables can only lead to chaos and chaos. The confirmation of quantum entanglement requires other ways...
”
Lu Chen stood on the rostrum and watched the thirteen academicians scattered across several thousand square meters of the venue arguing endlessly over how to measure quantum entanglement... He actually felt a little proud.
You see, even academicians may not be able to understand this stuff, right?
After a while, the red-faced and thick-necked academicians gradually calmed down. It was probably for the personal safety of these committee members that they were seated separately - the distance in a straight line was more than a hundred years away, and there were hundreds of soft seats between them.
Even if you want to fight in a hurry, you still have to put in some effort.
All in all, the atmosphere was harmonious.
Dr. Mu Zhiran took the lead in the discussion and began to talk from the basics - at least two academicians in the fields of agriculture and mining must understand the basic concepts of quantum.
Thanks to the repeated discussions with Lu Chen during this period and the "literacy science popularization", Mu Zhiran now has almost no pressure to give lectures of this level. She used concise and precise words to quickly popularize the basics to these academicians.
Concept.
"Listen, what they say is much better than you!" The agricultural academician slapped the table and began to taunt the academicians behind him in the field of physics, "What kind of academicians are you? Huh? After decades of being a professor, you can't even get this degree
Can’t you understand the subjects?”
Strangely enough, everyone was quarreling at first, but the academician in the field of agriculture opened his mouth, and the other academicians remained silent although their expressions were still unhappy.
"Next, tell us about your experimental ideas and the goals you hope to verify." The agricultural academician waved his hand, as if he was scattering a swarm of flies. "This part can be a little more concise. We have already seen enough written reports -
—Just think of it as a formality."
Ten minutes later, the scene was over. The academicians of the committee began to become serious. They crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, crossed hundreds of soft seats, gathered together, and began to discuss in a low voice - the details.
The content is unknown, but it seems that the discussion was very serious and serious. It was so serious that Lu Chen looked at it in confusion.
Isn’t it just a formality as promised? Are you guys planning to go back on your word now?!
After about half an hour of discussion, several academicians suddenly turned their heads and looked toward the stage. The agricultural academician asked, "Mr. Watanabe, is Professor Yang still accepting information management?"
"Yes, Mr. Yuan." Watanabe nodded and said, "According to the committee's instructions, information management needs to continue to be maintained until the committee lifts the ban."
"Since the implementation of information management, the number of bombings has been significantly reduced...right?" Academician Yuan continued to ask, "How many times have you counted them?"
"It will definitely happen once, and it may happen twice." Watanabe's face turned a little dark, "Mr. Yuan, this topic is not suitable for discussion in public, in front of unrelated people."
"This is not a public place, and the three people next to you are not unrelated people." Academician Yuan glared, "The committee has just unanimously agreed to lift the information blockade on them."
Watanabe's eyes widened and he argued, "This is too dangerous!"
"Implementing information management can only reduce the frequency of explosions. But in these days, at least three explosions still occurred. This frequency is too high and we cannot accept it." said the academician of the Department of Physics next to Academician Yuan.
, "They are the leading research team in this field, with impressive results and reliable personnel - letting them participate is the solution with the highest benefits and the lowest risks."
"The committee can understand the concerns of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau, but we believe that this risk is worth taking." Academician Yuan nodded, "The formal documents will be completed within ten minutes. After you get the documents, please complete the information in the radio anechoic room.
Deliver."
------------------
Thirteen academicians and the section chief of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau were chatting animatedly, while the three people on the stage were completely dumbfounded. Mu Zhiran asked Tang Qinglong with his eyes, "Have you already known this part?" and then got it.
My own teacher’s clear answer.
He rolled his eyes.
Lu Chen listened for a long time with his ears open, but he didn't understand what it meant. But looking at Watanabe's expression, this didn't seem to be a good thing.
Watanabe, who finally got the official documents, closed his eyes as if resigned to his fate. He stood for a while, then turned to Lu Chen and others and said, "You... follow me."
The anechoic chamber is a very special kind of "secret room". The meaning of its existence is to isolate electromagnetic waves as much as possible - in this era when AI is everywhere and network equipment can transmit 1PB data packets in a few minutes, the anechoic chamber is a way to achieve confidentiality.
The most important means of information transmission.
On the one hand, the anechoic chamber can prevent almost any electromagnetic waves from being transmitted directly from inside the room. On the other hand, the anechoic chamber itself provides a "pure background" for measuring radio signals.
Many of today's portable electronic devices operate continuously at extremely low power. In an anechoic chamber, no matter how sensitive the detection equipment is, it is difficult to distinguish their operating signals from background noise. But in an anechoic chamber, as long as
Even a battery-operated device cannot hide its existence.
In the anechoic room, Lu Chen was the first to ask, "What on earth is going on? Do you need to talk about it here?"
"The content of this message will change your entire life." In the radio darkened room, under the dim green light of the fluorescent stick, Watanabe looked at the three people in front of him with somewhat sympathetic eyes and said, "Unfortunately, you also
There is no chance to refuse - the committee decided to let you know, if you want to blame, just blame them."
Looking at Lu Chen who was confused and a little nervous, Watanabe said, "This matter is relatively long and will take some time to understand - the trigger of all this is you, Doctor Lu."
The General Investigation Bureau is a special agency with great power. When an inexplicable huge explosion occurs in society, the first reaction of the General Investigation Bureau is naturally to quickly investigate the explosion. This is their instinctive reaction and it is also part of their job. However, the collider explosion and the demonstration hospital explosion have plunged the entire General Investigation Bureau into continuous confusion. Especially the demonstration hospital explosion - Jeanne's entire process from the onset of illness to the transformation into light was captured by the medical recorder
Come down.
That scene had to make the General Investigation Bureau come up with a hypothesis - the explosive was a human body, or to be more precise, it was Jeanne.
As for how this young woman, who weighs approximately 52 kilograms, released energy equivalent to nearly 400 tons of TNT... this is still a mystery.
As time goes by, the number of explosions increases rapidly. The Porto Bianchi explosion and urban explosions in South Asia have provided the General Investigation Bureau with more accurate video data. With these videos and the hypotheses obtained from Jeanne, the General Investigation Bureau
The bureau began to convene researchers to analyze and study this, including Yang Weimin, theoretically Jeanne's attending doctor.
The investigators convened put forward many hypotheses, but most of them were proved to be just imagination. At the same time, the explosion of the Dongyang Special Administrative City Comprehensive Investigation Bureau "triggered" by extremist religious elements made the operatives of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau
We became more nervous than ever.
Religious extremists who carry explosives to attack everywhere are already terrifying. When the explosives they carry turn into the human body itself, and the power of the explosion is so amazing... it is really a nightmare.
Explosives hidden on the body can be detected with police dogs or trace elements, so what means and equipment should be used to distinguish between people who are about to explode and ordinary people?
In response to this issue, Yang Weimin put forward his own views.
"Ultraman Virus"
Of course, Yang Weimin, who has won the title of Ten Thousand Persons Plan and Outstanding Young Researcher, would not just slap his head and say, "There must be a virus here that we have never discovered before." He used the words "Ultraman Virus".
It refers to a special "curing factor" or "pathogen".
Yes, Yang Weimin believes that the explosion is still a disease. And he has full confidence in this hypothesis.
Of the five explosions recorded at that time, it was clear in two that the "bomber man" had symptoms of high fever and had cracked skin before the explosion. Both the Bianchi Port explosion and the Dongyang Special City explosion were captured by surveillance equipment
"Bomberman" status - they also have chapped skin.
"This is a disease with high fever, chapped skin, and explosions as its main symptoms. The cause of the disease is not yet clear, and there is no treatment plan for the time being." Yang Weimin judged, "Among them, the Thomas explosion and Jeanne explosion, Dongyang City
The General Investigation Bureau bombing cases seem to have a lot in common. Perhaps we can start the investigation from here."
Yang Weimin's suggestion received some support, but more opposition. Other experts are not fools who act only based on personal preferences. The reason for their opposition is very good - the principle of the explosion is unknown.
Although Yang Weimin could not give a reasonable explanation for this, other experts gave some guesses.
It can release such a huge amount of energy, and there is no obvious trace of radiation on the scene. Then this kind of explosion cannot be caused by the fusion or fission of nuclear materials. It is a non-nuclear reaction, but it can release such a huge amount of energy. I'm afraid.
We can only look at the mass-energy equation to find a solution.
The expert group finally gave two directions of suspicion-antimatter collision or other types of energy release.
"Information control is to prevent the observer effect from causing an increase in explosions." Watanabe said for a long time, his mouth felt a little dry. "Theoretically, as long as you don't know what you are observing, the impact of the observation will become smaller." Mu Zhiran raised his hand and asked, "I don't understand, antimatter collision or other energy releases... This has nothing to do with quantum mechanics, right? The observer effect is limited to the microscopic world. Is this kind of worry necessary?"
"Other energy releases may include changes in the excited state of electrons." Tang Qinglong answered his student's question, "Changes in electron orbits may absorb or release a large amount of energy, such as reactivating the isotopes of nineteen stable and non-radioactive elements.
Plug a few electrons in. Or electron pairs annihilate - this is all related to the microscopic world."
"In short, this strategy is considered to be indeed effective." Watanabe said, "Currently, the number of people in all mankind who know this situation is twenty-seven - the members of the committee do not know the specific content. Those who know this hypothesis
The fewer people there are, theoretically, the probability of another explosion happening will also decrease."
"So... the committee asked you to tell us the news..." Lu Chen asked with difficulty, "is it so that we can find out the specific cause of the explosion?"
"Who made you make great progress in the research on quantum mechanical disease?" Watanabe did not answer the question directly. He just spread his hands under the light of the anechoic chamber and said, "I told you, this news will permanently change your life."
