Into Unscientific

Backstage of the conference center.

Hear Gao Hongwen's words.

Academician Pan slowly took off the blindfold, stood up from the armchair, and asked:

"All ready? The Bolimia lab didn't time out?"

Gao Hongwen shook his head, with a hint of disdain on his face:

"Stuck on the news that came in the last 20 seconds, it's obviously disgusting."

Academician Pan smiled indifferently, with a casual expression on his face:

"It's okay. Doesn't this mean that they haven't recruited? They can only play tricks in these corners and corners. Just don't pay too much attention to it."

"Come on, let's go to the front desk."

Say it.

Academician Pan picked up the American ginseng beside him and sipped it to the end, and strode towards the front desk.

After half a minute.

I saw Academician Pan return to the scene.

The originally sloppy atmosphere in the audience subsided in an instant.

Many industry experts who were chatting just now sat up straight.

at the same time.

The barrage in the live broadcast room has also changed from [boring] [lol doesn’t even have such a long pause] and other complaints to [is it about to start? ] or [Rush! 】.

After coming to the stage.

Academician Pan still looked around and said:

"Experts and media guests at the scene, as well as colleagues outside the field and audience friends, due to some temporary emergencies, everyone has been waiting for a long time."

"However, I believe that the following results reporting session will not make everyone feel that more than an hour has been wasted."

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, now first ask the technicians to connect to the signals of the 49 institutions participating in this re-inspection!"

The voice just fell.

On the big screen behind Academician Pan, a video screen with a 7X7 layout appeared instantly.

These 49 video modules are marked with the corresponding institution names, which can be seen which country and which laboratory they belong to.

For example, Kamioka Lab is ranked first, CERN is ranked second and third, etc.

Other than that.

Although the layout of the pictures in each video frame is different, it can be seen that it is a monitoring perspective near the main console of a laboratory.

Various equipment can be seen in the video, and many staff members are walking around.

"Let me introduce to you first."

Academician Pan pointed to this picture and said:

"This is the scene of the experiment we are docking with. The various institutions have learned the detailed rules and agreed to transmit the real-time images."

"In addition, you can pay attention to the red indicator light next to the name of each organization. When the corresponding organization completes a certain step, they will change the indicator light to green."

"We will plan a corresponding time limit for a certain step. If the number of institutions that have not produced results exceeds 80% by the end of the time limit, then we will wait until 80%."

"If it's over 80 per cent by then, then we will not wait for the remaining agencies and go straight to the next step."

"That's the final elimination."

Hearing Academician Pan's words.

Many people at the scene twisted their bodies subconsciously, and a trace of discomfort flashed across their faces again.

Although it is well known that this is the conspiracy of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

But for many foreign institutions.

The moment Atsuto Suzuki spoke, or stood up from his seat, they were destined to be unable to avoid the big hole dug by the Academy of Sciences.

Now they can only pray that the success rate of the results of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the experimental process is not so high, or the quality is relatively not so hard.

otherwise

This time, all participating institutions will become a stone brick for the Chinese Academy of Sciences to ascend to the top.

"."

After the signals of various institutions are connected.

Academician Pan helped the microphone in front of him, and continued to speak:

"Now for one last confirmation, all institutions please activate the power of the accelerator, and press the indicator light when you are done."

Swish——

All the red lights turned green.

Academician Pan's expression remained unchanged. After the staff reset the green light back to red, he continued:

"Very good, next please connect the beam tube and launch the lead ion beam."

"The inclination value is 12.8762 degrees, the scalar field is 4, the magnitude is 50GeV, and the Feynman path integral expression is."

"The ion beam collision time is 10 minutes, the spray column intercepts seven peaks, and the probability trajectory is as shown on the screen in advance, now everyone can start."

The voice just fell.

The institutions in most of the videos get busy.

The neon lights thousands of kilometers away from Chengdu.

Gifu Prefecture.

Hida city.

Moju Mine is located at a depth of 1,000 meters.

Kamioka Laboratory Headquarters.

Takaaki Kajita, winner of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics, is standing in front of the main console, watching the operator input various coefficients into the device.

This little old man whose appearance is somewhat similar to the well-known neon actor Yuki Yuzuru, has long lost his usual sense of relaxation with a smile.

Instead.

It is a rock-solid seriousness, and a touch of .

If there are any worries.

A few minutes later.

A bald-headed operator stopped his crackling fingers, and respectfully said to Takaaki Kajita:

"Mr. Kajita, the data has been entered, should we start colliding now?"

Although the Super-Kamiokande detector of the Kamiokande Laboratory is mainly used to detect neutrinos and explore dark matter, it cannot do particle collisions at too high an energy level—after all, there is not such a long pipeline.

However, the data provided by the Chinese Academy of Sciences is not particularly out of bounds, and the corresponding requirements can be easily met with the equipment reserves of the Kamioka Laboratory.

Hear the operator.

Kajita Takaaki took a deep breath, nodded without hesitation, and barely maintained his usual kindness:

"Please begin, Matsuda-kun."

The bald man let out a quick Hay, and quickly typed in the instructions.

After a while.

A 1/4 wavelength superconducting prototype cavity consisting of 42 beam lines was opened rapidly, and a bunch of lead nuclei flew out at an extremely fast speed.

And under the support of multi-curved achromatic lenses.

In just one hundred thousandth of a second, they gained another acceleration.

Seven ten-thousandths of a second later.

They quickly passed through a superconducting wiggler with a large gap and a high field strength of 2.6T, and began to scatter at a small angle.

Many post-90s or post-00s should have played with a cheap firework that is about 20 centimeters long and as thin as a rope in their childhood, and can be used to swing and spin in circles.

This moment.

These scattered lead ions started to splash or scatter under the action of the bull breaker like the flaming core of a waving firework.

And when the two 'fireworks' started to rotate at the same time, a small probability event happened:

Some sparks collide together.

The 'sparks' of these collisions left corresponding ash residues after impact, which were quickly recorded by detection equipment.

mentioned earlier.

The trajectory of electrons cannot be calculated in advance, but can only be analyzed through a cloud chamber, which belongs to a probabilistic model.

The trajectory given by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, or calculated by Xu Yun, is also a probability value.

It's just that the probability is quite high.

So soon.

After indexing according to the corresponding probability trajectory, an energy level diagram appeared in front of Kajita Takaaki and others.

Kajita Takaaki's eyes paused on the chart for a few seconds, and he touched his chin thoughtfully.

As a top boss who has won the Nobel Prize, Takaaki Kajita made a judgment in just a few seconds:

"The observation level is 134Mev, which is lower than the value given by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but it is still the nature of electrically neutral mesons"

"But the 4685∧ hyperon has a π meson in its body, and it is impossible for another same particle to appear. In addition to the integral data of the differential width, its spin must be a semi-odd number."

"So... is it really a particle that moves in a very special way?"

But soon.

Takaaki Kajita, who was still feeling emotional, suddenly thought of something, his originally calm face suddenly changed, and he asked the assistant beside him:

"Iimura-kun, have you completed the signal feedback to the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"

The deputy named Iimura was a middle-aged man with a crew cut wearing a plaid shirt. Hearing this, he put his legs together in a very rigid manner, and bowed to Takaaki Kajita:

"Mr. Kajita, the signal has been sent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences."

"Where are we ranked?"

"Fourth, ahead of us is the Leiden Cryogenic Laboratory in the Netherlands, and the first is the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory across the sea."

"What about CERN?"

"Seventh place."

"call"

Takaaki Kajita heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he was faster than CERN and ranked higher overall.

Finally, I didn't embarrass the Super Kamiokande detector.

But soon, this sense of relief was filled by depression.

According to the steps notified in advance by Huaxia, the Kamioka Laboratory will be forced to 'compete' with other organizations four to five times.

This is forcing everyone to show their housekeeping skills.

Damn it!

How did the matter develop to this step? Didn't it be agreed to tear down the Huaxia people?

Why did we instead become actors on stage? ?

There are not many organizations with this idea, but at this point, no one can quit.

The line of sight returned to the live broadcast.

In order to allow many viewers to keep up with the rhythm of these industry insiders as much as possible, the Academy of Sciences also assigned professional researchers to each live broadcast room this time to cooperate with the explanations of each platform.

Partnering with Chen Shanshan was an equally young girl, who was obviously one of the members of Xu Yun's project team and Zhang Han, who was a Ph.D student.

Although Chen Shanshan doesn't know much about academic knowledge, her ability to control the field is not weak.

After seeing that the light turned green halfway, she asked Zhang Han:

"Dr. Zhang, according to the rules introduced by Academician Pan, can it be considered that the first step has been verified successfully?"

Zhang Han nodded sullenly when she heard the words, it can be seen that she is still a little restrained in front of the camera:

"That's right, the preparation of isolated point particles is the simplest part of the whole process. With the capabilities of these top institutions, it is not difficult to prepare successfully."

Chen Shanshan nodded half-understood, and continued to ask:

"Then Dr. Zhang, how many institutions do you think will be eliminated in the first round?"

Zhang Han thought for a moment and guessed:

"The number shouldn't be too many. I feel like there won't be more than two. It's even possible that all of them are qualified."

"However, the next link will be more difficult, and some institutions will be eliminated by then,"

as expected.

Not long after Zhang Han spoke.

The number of lights behind Academician Pan began to increase rapidly, and at the fastest, three lights were lit within a second.

Several well-known institutions are ranked very high.

For example, Kamioka Laboratory, CERN, and the Fermi Accelerator Laboratory to which Lucas belongs, etc.

Whenever an organization lights up, the representatives of the organization will be very happy to applaud and congratulate each other with their peers - at least they look happy on the surface.

As for how many words Geneva refunded in their hearts, only they know.

After more than ten minutes.

When the time came to the time limit given by Academician Pan, there was only one Malaysian laboratory left in all institutions that failed to achieve results.

Then

In less than half a minute.

The official tweet of this organization was smashed by the melon-eating party on the Internet. The most popular comment came from China, and the content was an emoji package:

【Can you do it, little dog? 】

This text has also been translated into multiple languages, even melon eaters in other countries can understand the meaning of the picture.

Of course.

At this time, Academician Pan didn't know that the effect of the live broadcast had improved to such an extent, and his mind was still mainly focused on the experimental process:

"Okay, it's been half an hour, I'm sorry for those who can't keep up, we can't give you any more time - your feedback signal will be removed, but you can still follow our live broadcast, and wait for the results to come out." Complete the follow-up re-examination."

"Now let's turn our attention back to the verification process, the next step we have to do is"

"The ground state processing of lone point particles, this part of the results is still independently completed by my student, Dr. Xu Yun, and the relevant papers will be published on the preprint website after the conference."

"According to our statistics, the ground-state-treated lone point particles can be stored in the magneto-optical trap for more than 15 seconds, which is enough for the final electromagnetic interaction verification."

Although Xu Yun's research group has successfully extended the "life" of the isolated point particle to four hours, but today's occasion does not need to use that technology.

After all, the secondary processing of isolated particles takes at least two hours.

Not to mention the waste of time, it doesn't have much impact on the test results—solitary point particles with a lifetime of 15 seconds are enough for the verification of electromagnetic interactions.

Then soon.

On the big screen behind Academician Pan, the relevant steps of the second step appeared:

[Lb1 value: 13638.28]

[K position points: T, T, T, F, T, T, T]

【Design index: 10^21】

【Brightness: 10^28】

[Magnetic stiffness: 9.4T m]

Since this round involves magneto-optical traps and double achromatic structure apex detectors, the difficulty has increased by more than ten times compared with the first round.

Therefore, the Academy of Sciences "intimately" gave a longer time limit:

an hour and a half.

Looking at the second round of data given by the Academy of Sciences.

While many experimental institutions were cursing their mothers in their hearts, they were forced to start a new round of involution.

at the same time.

In a room near the conference hall.

Zhan Keren, the deputy director of the Secret Service Incident Committee specially formed by the Academy of Sciences for this press conference, who is mainly responsible for live broadcast maintenance and network security, glanced at the staff around him who were clacking and typing on the keyboard, and asked the person next to him:

"Xiao Zhou, how is the live broadcast data now?"

Xiao Zhou, whom Zhan Keren was talking about, adjusted his heavy glasses with a temperature of at least 1200 degrees, and quickly reported a number:

"Director Zhan, don't consider the number of viewers on special channels—that is, the values ​​​​of the major laboratories."

"The number of overseas viewers has remained at about 27 million, and this number is still declining slowly."

Zhan Keren nodded slightly.

it `s just normal.

The press conference will be held at 9:00 a.m. in China, which is basically in the range of 1-3 a.m. when converted to the time of European countries.

This time period has a great influence on the enthusiasm of the audience, so the number of people in Europe is basically not too many.

On the other side of the sea, although it is 8:00 or 9:00 p.m., what is emphasized on the other side of the sea is elite education, and many people actually have no interest in physics at all.

Therefore, the combination of various factors has caused the number of overseas audiences to remain below 30 million.

Then Zhan Keren thought about it, and asked Xiao Zhou again:

"What about the number of people in the country?"

Xiao Zhou crackled again for a few seconds, and reported a number again:

"24 million."

"24 million?"

Zhan Keren was taken aback for a moment:

"What's going on here? In an experimental session, the audience increased by more than one million compared to just now?"

About ten minutes ago.

Zhan Keren once asked about the number of viewers. At that time, the number of viewers in China was about 23 million.

In Zhan Keren's mind.

At this time, the second round has been going on for more than 20 minutes, and the boring process should crowd out many viewers.

result

These audiences are surprisingly sticky?

Looking at the confused Zhan Keren, Xiao Zhou thought for a while and said:

"Director Zhan, you may not be clear about the fact that there are obvious differences between our domestic netizens and those abroad."

"Nowadays, the more incomprehensible something is, the more people are interested in it on the Internet."

"For example, in Professor Zhang Yitang's live lecture before, few people could understand what he said, but the popularity abruptly reached the top of the Xiaopo website."

"Another example is the novel "Empire of Science and Technology Begins with Elimination of Cockroaches" that I was chasing before, also known as "The Ax and the Donkey". The author often writes some knowledge that looks dizzy."

"But after you get used to it, you will feel particularly good after chasing it. The more you can't understand it, the more you want to watch it. It's always interesting."

"So if there is no accident, today's live broadcast is also like this."

Zhan Keren:

".?"

There is such a thing?

Then Zhan Keren took a deep breath, calmed down, and forced himself to calm down.

Well, facts speak louder than words.

It can only be said that he is a bit confused about the brain circuits of young people nowadays.

Then he patted Xiao Zhou on the shoulder, left the traffic monitoring area, came to the network defense center, and asked another person:

"Xiao Wang, how is the network security?"
