Chapter 416: What kind of new particle is it?
The next day.
Song Yao didn't go to school and lay on the sofa to rest. This time it might be really uncomfortable, and her complexion didn't look good.
Xu Qingzhou poured a glass of hot water for his girlfriend. Seeing her finish drinking and lying on the sofa again, he felt a little distressed: "Take some medicine."
"I'll be fine after lying down for a while," Song Yao shook her head.
Xu Qingzhou nodded, raised his head to help her tidy up the broken hair in front of her forehead. The school beauty Song hid under the blanket, revealing two beautiful eyes.
He couldn't help but tease: "It's been a long time since I've seen you look so weak."
Most of the time, even if Song Yao is having her period, she is full of energy, and even becomes more violent.
Song Yao's eyes blinked: "You stretch your hand over."
Xu Qingzhou was puzzled. Just as he reached his hand over, he saw Song Yao lower her head and bite down.
"Hiss~"
Xu Qingzhou grinned. The school beauty Song didn't use force, there was a little stinging pain, but more of it was a numb feeling.
"I want to make you uncomfortable with me."
Song Yao was milk-fierce.
Xu Qingzhou looked at his tiger's mouth, where there were two rows of shallow tooth marks.
On the sofa, Song Yao saw Xu Qingzhou staring at the tooth marks on his hand, poked him with her hand, and said: "Why don't you speak..."
"Do you really want me to speak?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"I'm thinking, should I go and make an appointment for a rabies vaccine."
Xu Qingzhou sighed and said.
"Xu Qingzhou!"
Song Yao was uncomfortable and stayed at home for a day. Xu Qingzhou was also too lazy to do any calculations, so he accompanied Song Yao to watch TV or binge-watch shows.
In the afternoon, he played games with her again, letting the school beauty Song enjoy the happiness of carrying him, Xu.
The next day.
The weather was okay, orange sunlight shot straight from the southeast, and there was another night rain last night. The air in the morning carried a hint of the scent of soil.
At 8:30 in the morning, Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao went out together. Song Yao went to Professor Morton's side, while Xu Qingzhou planned to go to the Harvard library to read books, intending to borrow the manuscript of Ahlfors' Complex Analysis.
In his previous life, he majored in quantum mechanics, and he had some achievements in complex functions, but after reading the manuscript of Ahlfors' Complex Analysis, he still felt that there was still a lot to learn.
Moreover, now he needs to use certain properties of complex functions in the field of pure mathematics, and his previous knowledge was not enough.
In the application of the Riemann Hypothesis, whether it is the extension of the original definition of the Riemann z-function on the positive real domain, or the analytic extension to obtain a function ξ(s) that is analytic on the entire complex plane, or using the properties of complex functions, such as symmetry and zero distribution, contour integration and zero counting, etc., to study zeros, all require extremely high knowledge reserves.
Speaking of particle physics, the analysis report is done, and the next step depends on Richard.
If there are no accidents, the European Organization for Nuclear Research will soon conduct the next set of experiments to find the companion particles of the Higgs boson.
"It's been a long time since I walked like this in the morning."
Xu Qingzhou took back his thoughts, took a deep breath, and immediately felt relaxed.
During this period of time, he had been busy, just going out to buy breakfast, or buying vegetables, and rushing home.
"Then let's go for a morning run when we find time?"
Song Yao was much more energetic than yesterday, so she suggested.
"In the early morning, isn't it more comfortable for two people to nest in the quilt than to come out and freeze?" Xu Qingzhou didn't want to get up early.
"Also."
Song Yao sighed, and suddenly lost motivation. The feeling of arching in Xu Qingzhou's arms in the morning was too comfortable.
Running is better in the evening.
Xu Qingzhou had to go to the Harvard headquarters in Cambridge across the Charles River, and the two had to separate at the intersection.
He pinched Song Yao's hand, "Okay, I'll come to pick you up in the afternoon."
"Hmm." Song Yao nodded, her eyes looked around, there were few people, she grabbed Xu Qingzhou's collar, pulled him over, stood on tiptoe, and pecked him on the mouth.
Xu Qingzhou's lips had just touched the softness, and he wanted to experience it well, but Song Yao had already retreated.
He was a bit resentful: "I've been ravaged by you again."
"Shut up." Song Yao warned with red ears, her heart beating thump-thump. This was the first time since going abroad that the two had done shameful things in public.
However, it was not as eye-catching as in the country. Foreigners are very wild, and kissing seems to be a common thing.
"Since you are pursuing excitement, do you want to carry it through to the end?"
"How do you want to be exciting?"
"Cough~ You are about to be late."
Xu Qingzhou felt that it was better not to provoke the school beauty Song who had opened her blood rage.
And at the University of California, Berkeley, Richard also opened his computer. Yesterday was his wife's birthday, and he rarely rested, but today there was double the work to deal with.
There were indeed more than a dozen emails in the mailbox.
The first one was an email from Professor Baker, his former leader at lhc, who probably advised him to give up and participate in the lhc collision work first.
In addition, there were several experimental invitations from friends, hoping he could go over to help.
Oh, right, there was also an email from the college academic affairs office. Currently, the college has several scientific research projects, hoping he can take them on.
Richard rubbed his temples, suddenly feeling a headache, and cursed these bullshit committees for only caring about immediate interests. They are just a group of exquisite businessmen, and they don't have the heart to pursue scientific truth at all.
But what makes people helpless is that currently, if you want funding, you need these people to nod.
Or...
Richard was a bit hesitant.
Is it possible to put the calculation at hand aside first and go to lhc with Professor Bell.
Colleague Dren Krug walked in with a cup of coffee and greeted with a smile: "Hey, Richard, you had a great time yesterday, right?"
"A very wonderful evening." Richard nodded, thinking of the candlelight dinner with his wife last night, his eyebrows relaxed. He dared to guarantee that there was no one in this world more understanding than his wife.
Even if people around him remained suspicious of what he was doing now, his beautiful wife would always stand behind him and support him.
Dren Krug: "Richard, it's November, maybe you can really consider my suggestion last time, super tau-charm technology, the above has already agreed, and stated that funding is not a problem."
"I need to consider."
Richard said in a deep voice.
"Ok, I have to go to Professor Robert's side first, Richard, I hope when I come back, you can give an accurate answer, you know, we don't have much time."
"Good."
It was also at this time that Richard's gaze paused.
Wait.
"Eh~ Xu Qingzhou?"
Richard didn't waste time, clicked on the email directly, stared at the email for a long time, quickly pulled out a manuscript from the side, and picked up his pen to start calculating.
12:00 PM.
Dong~ Dong~
Dren Krug knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Richard in a daze, and the briefcase on the side was still the same as when he left, he said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, you are so tangled."
"Xu Qingzhou sent an email." Richard came back to his senses.
"What did he say?"
Dren Krug saw Richard staring at the screen with a strange expression, couldn't help snapping his fingers, and said in a joking tone: "Why, did Xu Qingzhou tell you that he found that mysterious particle?"
"He..."
Richard raised his head, his expression a bit trance-like: "Seems to have found it..."
"What?"
Dren Krug froze, his tone a bit unbelievable, "He found the third type of pentaquark particle?"
"That's not it." Richard shook his head, and his colleague breathed a sigh of relief, then heard Richard continue: "He said he found a new particle, the companion particle of the Higgs boson."
He spent 2 hours verifying Xu Qingzhou's report, and the remaining 1 hour was spent in a daze. The surprise came too suddenly, making people feel a bit unreal.
Opposite, Dren Krug, who had just sat down, twitched the corners of his mouth, a bit suspicious that he had heard wrong.
How did it suddenly pull to the companion particle of the Higgs boson.
"You mean, Xu Qingzhou found the Higgs boson companion particle in those useless abnormal peaks?"
"Yes."
"."
The office fell into silence.
"I have to go to Professor Baker."
Richard thought there was still business to do and got up directly. In the email, Xu Qingzhou specifically said that his work there was over, and the rest was up to him.
"Oh, okay."
Dren Krug was still a bit confused. No, the Higgs boson companion particle, just found like this?
And it was found in a pile of background noise that didn't know what it was?
This thing... is it too mysterious?
This time it was Dren Krug's turn to be in a daze.
At the same time, Richard was on his way to Professor Baker's office.
If there are no accidents, the European Organization for Nuclear Research will organize experts to verify Xu Qingzhou's analysis report theoretically. If feasible, there might be a possibility of conducting experiments on the lhc.
He had just calculated it once and could say with certainty that Xu Qingzhou's calculation was no problem.
Just waiting for the experiment.
Of course, there are challenges.
As mentioned before, because the mass of the Higgs boson companion particle is very high, the process of searching requires huge energy from the particle accelerator, which is difficult for the currently stop-and-go lhc.
Secondly, due to power problems, the background noise generated in high-energy particle collisions may cover up the signal characteristics of the companion particle, making it difficult to extract the signal.
Or, the detector sensitivity problem, current detector technology may not be enough to directly detect certain types of Higgs boson companion particles.
Of course, for Xu Qingzhou, these are not problems he needs to worry about. The calculation results are already there, and he is relatively confident in mathematical calculations.
After sending the Higgs boson companion particle stuff to Richard, Xu Qingzhou pulled his gaze back to mathematics again.
Inside the Harvard library.
Xu Qingzhou read materials for a morning, had a simple lunch, and in the afternoon, took out the manuscript from the previous days.
【Lemma 10.3. Suppose ψ∈ψ1, p∈z(ψ). Then c(p, ψ)≥0.】
"Here, a smoothing weight can be introduced..."
Xu Qingzhou's pen tip tapped lightly, thinking for a long time, trying to see if he could deduce the final contradiction through four sequences.
Some time ago, he actually tried various methods and tools, but the last step just couldn't be crossed. Just relying on the unexpected three inequalities couldn't solve the Landau-Siegel zero point problem. And now a new idea has emerged: planning to study real number sequences again.
Professor Baker's office.
Mia was reporting her work progress to Professor Baker.
Richard knocked on the door and walked in directly.
Professor Baker signaled Mia to stop first and said with a smile: "Richard, I'm glad you've figured it out."
Richard is a genius in particle physics, just a bit rigid.
Richard didn't beat around the bush and handed his flash drive to Professor Bell: "Professor Baker, I think you should be interested in this."
"What is it?"
Professor Baker took the flash drive with some curiosity.
On the side, Mia looked at Richard's appearance, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought of some possibility, tentatively asking: "Don't tell me, you and Xu Qingzhou really found something new."
"Congratulations, you guessed right."
Richard nodded and said with a smile.
"."
Mia was speechless for a while.
Professor Baker's expression froze. The cooperation between Richard and Xu Qingzhou was not a secret, but most people didn't care about it. After Richard suggested that there might be something in the abnormal peaks, some of them had also tried their best to help.
The result didn't need to be said, there was nothing.
In their view, Richard and Xu Qingzhou actually had some kind of same quality—not taking the usual path.
Richard is too stubborn.
Xu Qingzhou... this young man's path is too wild. A few days ago, he announced he was doing some Riemann Hypothesis, and now he actually agreed to do particle physics.
Mia went over to look at the report with Professor Baker.
"Companion particle? Is there really such a thing?"
Professor Baker's face was the same expression as Dren Krug just now.
"Yes, I verified it before I came, it's perfect." Richard nodded.
Mia's face was full of amazement. Since the beginning of cognition... Xu Qingzhou seems to have been creating miracles.
Professor Baker narrowed his eyes and began to calculate.
Time passed second by second.
After a long while, this old gentleman's face showed amazement: "Currently, Xu Qingzhou's calculation is no problem. If you don't mind, you can send this report to the lhc headquarters. I think they will be interested in this thing."
Pausing, he continued: "No, not them, it's everyone, everyone who maintains a love for particle physics, no one can remain calm in front of a new particle."
"We agree."
Richard said affirmatively.
Xu Qingzhou had already stated in the email that he agreed to share it directly to the lhc, and of course he wouldn't have any opinions.
If this can witness the discovery of a new particle with his own eyes.
Hehe, this is the dream of how many particle physicists.
"No time to lose, send this report now. Mia, your business might have to be slowed down." Professor Baker said to Mia.
"Of course, I don't mind."
Mia nodded with a smile, sat back in her seat, took out her phone, struggled for a while, and still opened the chat box with Song Yao first, typing: "Congratulations, Xu Qingzhou seems to have done another extraordinary big thing."
Compared to Xu Qingzhou, she was more interested in this cool Xia Nation girl now.
Very handsome.
Of course, she didn't have any hobbies, and she had already given up on borrowing genes from Xu Qingzhou, just hoping to be friends with Song Yao. Unknowingly, she seemed to admire Song Yao a bit.
Song Yao: "If it's in that guy's words—routine operation."
Mia laughed, worthy of being a couple, both equally unhumble.
