From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 185 Maybe it's a fallacy, maybe it's a miracle

The reason why Lin Xiao called Mr. Yang immediately was because he felt that what Higgs said might bring some thinking direction to the issues he was thinking about in the past two days.

He would not let go of any opportunity that could bring him inspiration. Since he happened to have a close relationship with Mr. Yang, of course he had to take advantage of this opportunity.

Huaguo is seven hours ahead of French time, so Huaguo is still past six o'clock, so there is no need to worry about disturbing others.

Mr. Yang was also very surprised that Lin Xiao suddenly asked him for help, but for this young man, he was also very happy to help Lin Xiao.

"The formula that Higgs and I talked about? I still have a little impression, but it's been a long time ago. Let me think about it."

Elder Yang said, "But having said that, where did you hear the news?"

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "I'm participating in a high-energy physics discussion in Lyon today, and Mr. Higgs is also there, and then he talked about this matter."

"He thinks that the formula you discussed at the beginning may hide some things that have not been discovered in particle physics, so I want to find out."

"Hmm...so that's how it is. I had always had doubts about that formula at the beginning. Although a harmonious result can be obtained after introducing the Higgs mechanism, there are still some unexplainable problems in it." Elder Yang said. : "Oh, I remember I wrote it in a notebook, let me look for it."

"Well, please excuse me."

Then, Lin Xiao waited slowly, until the next meeting was about to start, Mr. Yang seemed to be still looking for it. In order to avoid affecting the seminar, Lin Xiao left temporarily.

Seeing him go out, Henry quickly followed.

Calling his idol, of course he wanted to listen to it, and up to now, he was surprised that Lin Xiao actually had his idol's phone number, and even made a phone call.

After coming outside and waiting for a while, Lin Xiao finally heard Elder Yang's voice again: "Yes, I found it, but this formula is more troublesome and contains more physical quantities. I will send it to you directly later. Let’s take a picture, shall we?”

"Okay!" Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Then I will trouble you."

"No trouble, hehe, it seems that you have officially entered high-energy physics, so I can look forward to your future achievements."

"Okay." Lin Xiao responded, if his previous idea can really be successful, he can even bet that this will definitely be an extremely shocking theory for the current physics world, although he doesn't know that he will be able to do it in the end. What will come out, just like before Einstein came up with the theory of relativity, he also didn't know what he would eventually come up with.

So now, he can't wait to know what the style that Elder Yang and Higgs talked about back then looks like.

However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed Henry next to him, winking at him.

He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Yang, I have a French friend here who admires you very much and wants to have a few words with you."

Old Yang smiled and said, "Since he is your friend, of course it is fine."

Lin Xiao said to Henry, "Henry, talk to your idol, Yang and I mentioned you."

An excited expression appeared on Henry's face, he grabbed Lin Xiao's hand and shook it a few times to express his thanks, and then changed his mouth to speak in English, even a little incoherent: "Hello, Professor Yang, I... I It's Henri Bernard! Nice to talk to you, I'm a big fan of yours... I'm... I'm also a master student in physics at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris, also in high energy physics, and I'm very interested in your gauge theory and parity Non-conservation theories are especially admired."

Mr. Yang said with a smile: "Henry, hello, I am also very happy to talk to you. I believe that as Lin's friend, you must also be an excellent young man. It took me a lot of time to come up with those theories. Hard work, such as disbelief from others, or even criticism from senior academics, of course, as long as you can be sure that your theory is not wrong, then you can wait for the world to prove it for you, so keep working hard.”

For the first half of the sentence, Henry showed embarrassment on his face. He felt that compared with Lin Xiao, he seemed a bit too mediocre, but after hearing the encouragement from Mr. Yang in the second half of the sentence, he said excitedly: "Thank you I will work hard in the future."

"Okay, I look forward to that day too."

Old Yang encouraged.

Then Henry clenched his fist excitedly, nodded to Lin Xiao, and signaled that he had finished speaking.

He is already satisfied with being inspired by idols, after all, how many people can have the experience of "chasing stars successfully".

Seeing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help smiling, and after talking to Mr. Yang for a few more words, he hung up the phone.

"Yay! Yay!"

Seeing Lin Xiao put down his phone, Henry shouted excitedly.

Then he hugged Lin Xiao directly, and cheered: "Lin! I really love you to death!"

Lin Xiao: "..."

Brother, there are people around here, if you want to be excited, don't get excited here, okay?
He seemed to be able to see the glances of other people around him, and his face showed the expression of knowing brother or subway uncle.

So he quickly pushed this guy away, and said with disgust: "Go, go, pay attention to the occasion."

Henry smiled and said, "If this occasion is not what you want, it's also possible in the hotel. I'll be there on call, of course, only once."

Lin Xiao said speechlessly: "Roll as far as you can."

At this time, he suddenly heard the voice of the prestige message on the phone, and his eyes lit up, it should be the picture sent by Old General Yang.

So he immediately took out his mobile phone, and sure enough, he saw a picture sent by Mr. Yang.

Seeing the complicated formula in the picture, Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback.

This formula includes many physical constants, and it is also very complicated.

However, for him, after some mathematical thinking, it was easy to think of how to deal with it, so he simply deduced it in his mind, and finally, as Higgs said before, the general After the Rank constant was written in, it became impossible to continue writing down, and then, after the Higgs mechanism was substituted in, it became harmonious.

"why is that?"

Lin Xiao thought about it.

So, is there a problem with the Higgs mechanism, or is there something hidden in this formula that cannot explain the physical meaning?
However, it is equally difficult to explain the physical meaning of this formula itself.

"However, what if some unexplained principle occurs in the process of spontaneous symmetry breaking?"

Lin Xiao's heart moved, he might have found a direction to start with.

So he immediately said to Henry: "Henry, I need to go back to the hotel to continue my research, so I will trouble you to stay here, and then tell Professor Swensey that I won't have dinner together."

"Ah? Did you find anything else?"

Henry was taken aback and couldn't help asking.

"It may be a fallacy, or it may be another God particle." Lin Xiao smiled at him, then turned and left.

Seeing Lin Xiao leaving, Henry could only shrug his shoulders. He also saw the picture sent by Mr. Yang, but after looking at it for a while, he just sorted out these physical quantities and was about to deduce them in his mind. Akatsuki seemed to have completed the derivation.

And you must know that his speed is already considered good for the students of the Paris Normal University.

Well, he is used to this, and now he can only silently wish Lin Xiao in his heart.

Hope to discover another God particle as he said.

He returned to the seminar and found a place.

Seeing that he was the only one coming back, Swen Sai couldn't help asking, "Where's Lin?"

Henry replied: "Lin went back to work miracles."

"Miracle?"

Svensey froze.

……

In the hotel room, Lin Xiao sat at the table, spread out the draft paper and started the calculation.

Although high-energy physics is an experimental science, the process of mathematical derivation can still give birth to some previously unknown theories.

This is why, its own name is called particle physics. By transforming these particles into numbers, and then according to the relationship between them that have been discovered, it is possible to get a result from a piece of paper full of mathematical formulas. As the truth of the microcosm emerges, there will also be some magical things in it, waiting for their discovery.

And in history, such a thing has been proven more than once.

Just like Maxwell's equations, Maxwell combined the four formulas of the electromagnetic world and successfully predicted the property that light is an electromagnetic wave, so that it is called the most perfect formula.

Another example is the mass-energy equation, which is also derived mathematically, and they are hidden in the theories discovered in the past.

Therefore, no one can guarantee whether there are some truths hidden in the various existing formulas that have not been discovered by human beings.

And Lin Xiao's job now is to find out this hidden truth.

【Assume that the Higgs potential is: V(ΦΦ^*)=μΦΦ^*+λ(ΦΦ^*), then there are...】

As Lin Xiao's work continued, his eyes kept shining with wisdom.

"Imagine a certain symmetry group transformation, which can only transform the lowest energy state into itself, then the lowest energy state is said to have "invariance" for this transformation, that is, the lowest energy state has this symmetry, then we can easily produce One question - where does this energy come from?"

"Like vacuum zero point energy."

Lin Xiaolian thought of this magical thing.

It means that there is energy even in an empty vacuum, and this energy exists forever, that is, the so-called vacuum is not empty.

And this theory is also very easy for people to relate to. Does this mean that we can prostitute an unlimited energy source for free?

In fact, there are even objects in the world that can harness this energy, such as the Casimir battery.

Of course, this kind of battery is disposable and cannot be recharged spontaneously, so compared to the energy consumed to manufacture it, it is obviously not worth it.

However, this does not make sense to physicists. What physicists care about is what is hidden behind it.

"Although Heisenberg's uncertainty principle tells us that quantum mechanics cannot be without zero-point energy, it still does not explain where the vacuum zero-point energy comes from."
