Chapter 331: This scene makes people feel a bit familiar

The award ceremony ended, and the future is 4 days of exchange meetings.

Xu Qingzhou's report was arranged on the morning of the first day. For someone like him who does reports every day, there was no pressure, and he completed it smoothly.

In the following time, he basically wandered around in various exchange meetings, mainly exchanges in the field of mathematics, and sometimes went to listen to chemistry reports. In this kind of world-class academic conference, everyone basically brings out cutting-edge things.

For example, Professor John F. Hartwig from the University of California, Berkeley, shared the team's selective catalytic functionalization of C-H and C=C bonds, which is completely a field Xu Qingzhou is unfamiliar with.

Of course, he also participated in two physics exchange meetings. One was about research on correcting electron microscope aberrations, which could allow scientists to observe atoms at the picometer scale. If it is fully developed, it will definitely have a revolutionary impact on materials science. The other was about neutrino oscillations.

The discovery of this thing shows that they can transform into different types in space, which helps to understand the properties of neutrinos and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe.

Besides participating in academic conferences, he also went for a stroll in the city when he was free to experience foreign culture. His little life was quite fulfilling.

February 22.

Mia thought, turned her head, and looked at her notebook again, thinking about the feasibility of solving the non-locality problem.

Read! {

The lecture hall was already full.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen."

Professor Haroche greeted simply and went straight to the theme, "Non-locality in quantum physics is a confusing yet fascinating concept."

Low discussions began to sound in the lecture hall, but for a while, no one stood up. Professor Haroche is the most cutting-edge scholar studying this problem today. Even he has been trapped for so long, how could it be so easy for them to come up with new ideas.

Professor Haroche was already prepared on the stage. Seeing Xu Qingzhou come in, he smiled and nodded. Xu Qingzhou also nodded in response, then planned to find an empty seat.

Xu Qingzhou shrugged, and his attention quickly focused on the calculation at hand.

Mia quickly threw away her distracting thoughts. At this time, Professor Haroche had already entered the calculation stage of measurement behavior.

Although Xu Qingzhou understood everything, he still listened carefully to express his respect for the old gentleman.

The research topic on the local smoothness conjecture had already been approved. This time, he must produce results before Xu Qingzhou.

It's a pity, John Bell died in the early nineties, otherwise it would definitely be a Nobel Prize. Xu Qingzhou shook his head in regret. In 2022, a series of optical experiments proved that Bell's inequality was indeed violated, thereby denying Einstein's local realism.

He might have given up thinking, after all, he just followed along to do the calculations, and there was clearly no intention to continue research.

Xu Qingzhou walked over, sat down, and said "Good afternoon."

At 3:20 PM, Professor Haroche stopped, "Regrettably, as I just said, our current ideas have encountered many problems. Therefore, we have specially reserved 30 minutes for discussion."

!.

Although many contents were familiar, many places still needed detailed calculations.

Mia paused, her blue eyes staring at Xu Qingzhou, "It seems not every Xia Nation person is very humble."

Xu Qingzhou also saw many scholars in the field of mathematics come to listen to the lecture, which is quite normal. Many scholars study both mathematics and physics, just focusing on a certain field.

The reason he took an extra look was because "old acquaintances" also came. Professor Yagil and the Indian guy were both there.

After all, he has a chance.

To be honest, Xu Qingzhou is very familiar with this thing, and can even proudly say: "No one in this world understands these contents better than me."

At 2:00 PM local time, Xu Qingzhou finished his calculation, took his notebook and manuscript paper, and came out of the room. Half an hour later was Serge Haroche's report meeting, the basic problem of non-locality in quantum physics.

Unlike others who were discussing in low voices or frowning and thinking, Xu Qingzhou's expression was calm, and there was no sign of thinking about things at all.

Mia said in her heart. Their subsequent experiments were verifications of more detailed content.

Seeing Xu Qingzhou was very busy, Mia didn't disturb him.

The war has begun. His expression full of fighting spirit made Xu Qingzhou a bit baffled, thinking to himself, it's just listening to a lecture, why are you so passionate? At 2:30 PM, the report meeting officially began.

Mia looked at the seat next to her, signaling Xu Qingzhou to sit down.

According to statistics, about 1/3 of Wolf Prize winners eventually won the Nobel Prize, so the Wolf Prize is also known as the "Nobel Prize weather vane".

At the same time, Samit also noticed Xu Qingzhou sitting on the right.

The manuscript paper in front of Xu Qingzhou was also full of formulas.

For example, some physicists believe that the "measurement collapse" caused by measurement may limit the speed of information transmission, while others believe that quantum non-locality does not actually violate the laws of physics, but reveals a new phenomenon that transcends our current understanding of the universe.

Time passed minute by minute.

Professor Haroche's gaze looked at the audience below.

"Mr. Xu, you seem very interested in physics, why don't you engage in physics research?"

Xu Qingzhou opened the manuscript, wanted to continue the calculation just now, and said seriously: "Maybe, I like to challenge things that I find more difficult."

Next door, Mia was a bit puzzled.

Mia fell into deep thought, considering the several questions raised by Professor Haroche. She looked at Xu Qingzhou on the side.

What Professor Haroche said was all the most cutting-edge knowledge.

As for the previous content, no matter the logic or mathematical calculation, there was no fault to be found, which is also normal. Everyone knows that Professor Haroche has an incredible mathematical team behind him.

"It shows that even if there is a spatial interval between separated physical systems, there may still be some form of correlation between quantum objects. This correlation seems to violate the locality principle of classical physics..."

Bell's inequality is something no less than quantum basic principles such as the Born interpretation and the uncertainty principle, and it can be ranked in human epistemology.

Moreover, although it cannot be deduced further, Professor Haroche's calculation is already very perfect.

Half an hour passed, and the blackboard was already covered with many dense and complex formulas.

After thinking clearly, she felt a sense of regret in her heart. If he studied physics seriously, he might be able to win that pearl that countless people yearn for—the Nobel Prize in Physics.

The experimental verification of Bell's inequality he once conducted revealed the non-local correlation in the phenomenon of quantum entanglement.

He clearly just treated physics as an interest and had no intention of studying it in depth.

From Professor Haroche's speech until now, she had taken more than ten pages of notes, but Xu Qingzhou on the side hadn't taken a single word, just listening quietly, occasionally picking up a pen to calculate along with it.

In classical physics, it is believed that the interaction between physical systems is limited to space, but non-locality means that the measurement results of certain physical quantities have nothing to do with the sequence of space or time, presenting a unique property that transcends the classical framework.

There were many people in the lecture hall.

"Oh? Mr. Xu, please share your thoughts."

Professor Haroche's voice sounded in the lecture hall.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, looked up, followed Professor Haroche's gaze, and their expressions couldn't help but tighten.

Samit suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. When he saw the face in the corner, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he even felt a bit dazed, always feeling that this scene seemed a bit familiar.
