Reborn and become a Great Scientist

Chapter 181 Chapter 129

"How much do you say, Sir Doyle? A thousand pounds for a lecture?"

Chen Muwu, who was shocked by this number, began to doubt his own ears a little bit unconfidently.

In order to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings caused by his mishearing, he simply repeated the number again.

Doyle smiled and nodded: "That's right, one thousand pounds, Dr. Chen, isn't the salary I proposed not bad?"

The old aristocracy and the new aristocrats in the UK are really rich.

Chen Muwu has always felt that he has established a firm foothold in Europe now, and is on the right track both in his studies and in his life. He only needs to make a little effort in the future, relying on various invention patents that have not yet appeared, and he should be able to make a lot of money. less money.

But there is such an opportunity in front of you, you only need to go to London to give a lecture, talk about it, and spend two hours to your death, the reward is a thousand pounds.

What kind of research are you trying to do, and what kind of Nobel Prize are you struggling for?
As long as you give seven lectures a year, you can earn as much money as a Nobel Prize.

It's no wonder that gang of scammers rushed to the UK to swindle money. It's really easy for this gang of people to cheat.

Until 100 years later, Mr. Ma, master of Hunyuan Xingyi Taijiquan, can still be tricked in London.

For a moment, Chen Muwu even wanted to introduce Qigong to England.

When the time comes, tens of thousands of people gather in Trafalgar Square, each with an aluminum "information pot" on his head to receive the magnetic field from the universe's atmosphere. The scene must be very spectacular.

What Chen Muwu didn't know was that, as a supporter of psychic theory, Doyle himself was the author of the world-renowned Sherlock Holmes series.

He went on a lecture tour in the United States to give a platform for psychics, and the fee for each appearance was no less than what Chen Muwu could get this time.

"Dr. Chen?"

Seeing that Chen Muwu suddenly fell into a state of contemplation, the old man Doyle smiled inexplicably.

He didn't give himself a response for a long time, so he couldn't help calling Chen Muwu in a low voice.

"Ah, ah, sir, where am I? When will this lecture be held?"

In just a few minutes, Chen Muwu personally demonstrated what it means to hit the face at the speed of light.

He was still doing psychological construction in his mind just now, saying that he must not have anything to do with gods, gods and ghosts.

But in the blink of an eye, he rebelled, and it was his predecessor Newton who brought him psychological comfort this time.

Even the greatest physicist in the history of mankind has gone to study theology, so it's understandable that I, Chen, couldn't get away with it in the end, right?

There are two skins in the human mouth, anyway, it is reasonable, and crossing the river by feeling Newton, you must be right!
"Dr. Chen, did you agree? Any time is fine. Anyway, you just need to tell me a few days in advance, and I can call members for an impromptu gathering. But it's better to choose Saturday, There should be more people present at that time.”

"No problem! Sir Doyle, I will go to London in a few days, and I will contact you then."

"That would be great," Doyle said, groping a little from the inner pocket of his suit, "here is my business card, with my address and telephone number in London on it. And the fifty pounds will be used as transportation expenses , to pay for your journey from Cambridge to London."

Boss atmosphere.

The distance traveled by train from Cambridgeshire railway station to London's King's Cross station is only sixty miles, and even the most expensive first-class express trains cost less than a pound.

The transportation fee Doyle gave Chen Muwu was enough for him to go back and forth between the two cities twenty or thirty times.

"Okay, Sir, I will contact you as soon as possible!"

After sending Doyle away, Chen Muwu did not return to the dinner party at Trinity College because he was afraid that Einstein would continue to pester him. Instead, he went to Mrs. Brown's house after a long absence.

Since Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei came to Cambridge from China, Chen Muwu basically didn't have much time to communicate with them.

Especially during the months when they were lingering in the Nordic countries, they only met once in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.

When he got there, he didn't expect to see Oppenheimer in the house.

He is the youngest among the three, but he consciously has the consciousness of a senior brother.

Chen Muwu had previously asked Oppenheimer to help two people from China learn more about the latest physics knowledge, and help them practice English by the way. Unexpectedly, he still persisted in this matter.

In fact, Oppenheimer completely regarded every reunion of fellow students as a foreign language corner. He helped Zhao and Shi with English tutoring, and also learned Chinese listening, speaking, reading and writing with them by the way.

He felt that although he was in the UK, Mr. Chen and the four people in his circle of students, except him, all spoke Chinese as their mother tongue. In order to take care of him, an American, they communicated in English all the time.

Oppenheimer felt like a burden, so he always wanted to learn Chinese well.

Compared with his two compatriots, Chen Muwu took Oppenheimer on a business trip to Northern Europe intact.

However, in the short month after he returned to Cambridge, because he had to deal with the accumulated things, and he had gone through all kinds of hardships with him, he finally came to the UK for a trip, and his eldest disciple also had some seldom. far away.

Because he was not a member of the Royal Society, Oppenheimer did not go to London to attend the meeting with Chen Muwu a few days ago, and could only read the controversial theories put forward by his teacher in the newspaper.

The few people finally met today, and the topic of course still cannot be separated from the unlucky cat and the universe that has been in a state of division inexplicably.

In the past few days, as long as Chen Muwu met with others, these topics would always be discussed.

Eddington, who was the first to speak to reporters after the award ceremony of the Royal Society, was a supporter of Chen Muwu's new theory from beginning to end.

Now, his stalwart supporters have another Oppenheimer.

Although no matter what interpretation of quantum mechanics is still in the fantasy stage, let alone experimental verification, it is still difficult to design a verifiable experiment, but there is an intuition in Oppenheimer's heart, that is, Chen Muwu said Everything is right, he will never lie to himself.

After chatting for a while, Chen Muwu and the three of them stated the purpose of their trip: "I will go to London again in a few days, and I may do some research in the laboratory of the Royal Academy."

"Is it because of the superconducting thing?"

When Oppenheimer was in Denmark, he knew that Chen Muwu had been fooling around, and he couldn’t be said to be fooling. It should be the person who “persuaded” the Institute of Theoretical Physics to study superconductivity.

On the way back after receiving the Nobel Prize, he followed Chen Muwu to the Netherlands, so Oppenheimer knew that when Mr. Chen was in Leiden, he had been negotiating about the purchase of low-temperature physics experiment equipment.

As a result, after returning to Cambridge, things related to low-temperature physics seemed to disappear suddenly.

After asking around, Oppenheimer realized that it was Rutherford who was reluctant to spend money and introduced Mr. Chen to Old Prague in London.

Oppenheimer, who came to Cambridge University from Harvard University, failed to enter the Cavendish Laboratory at the beginning because Rutherford was in the way.

Now Rutherford got stuck in Chen Muwu's research again, which made him even more upset.

My teacher relied on the money he earned for the laboratory through hard work in the Olympic Games, but in the end he couldn't spend a penny, and he was all invested in the research on atomic nuclei that had no hope at all.

Oppenheimer felt that Rutherford might be even older than Thomson, who was older than him. As long as Chen Muwu could be photographed well, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to get more research results?

I went on a business trip to Northern Europe with my teacher for several months. During this period, I left Chen Muwu's Cavendish Laboratory, and what achievements did I make?
On the most important research direction, the nucleus, almost nothing has been achieved. What is the only thing that has achieved results?It was in high-altitude physics that the ionosphere in the atmosphere was discovered!
Oppenheimer thought to himself that the Cavendish Laboratory could even dismiss all the other professors and staff members, leaving only Chen Muwu alone, plus himself and two juniors as assistants to the teacher. Continuously produce various research results.

"That's right, I want to do some research on low-temperature physics. Who of you wants to go to London with me?"

Chen Muwu has always said that he will do a low temperature experiment, but he has never thought about what he is going to do.

However, he is very clear that after arriving in London, he will definitely not study the critical temperature of the elemental substance becoming a superconductor, especially the No. 80 No. [-] element thallium.

There are two options before Chen Muwu. One is to obtain liquid deuterium from liquid hydrogen by splitting under low temperature conditions, so as to find the first isotope of hydrogen.

The second is to continue to study superconductivity, thereby discovering the Meissner effect of superconductors, and confirming that the magnetic induction intensity inside superconductors is zero, that is to say, superconductors repel the magnetic field inside the body.

The first research will undoubtedly win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

In the original time and space, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1934 was given to Harold Urie who discovered deuterium.

As for the second research, Chen Muwu thinks that he should also win the physics prize.

It's just because in the original time and space, Meissner, the discoverer of the Meissner effect, was a German, and Germany lost the Second World War again like the First World War, so he was let because of his nationality. It's a pity Did not win the Nobel Prize.

Last winter, Chen Muwu had eaten alone once, and his interest in the Nobel Prize is not as strong as before.

Moreover, he thought that the judges of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences should not be willing to award the Nobel Prize to the same person over and over again. Einstein is a good example.

So Chen Muwu thought about whether he could help the people around him get a few Nobel Prizes.

Today, he and his three students proposed to go to London to do low temperature experiments, just to try his own idea.

It's just because he couldn't decide who to do the experiment with him in the end, so he didn't decide what experiment he would do in the end.

In Chen Muwu's plan, he would leave the Physics Prize to his two compatriots.

If one of Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei is willing to go with him, then after arriving in London, he will do the experiment on the magnetic effect of superconductors.

And if Oppenheimer wants to go with me, since he has been faithfully accompanying me all the time, then give him a chemistry award.

His teacher, Rutherford, looked down on the chemistry award, so Chen Muwu, a good student, also had some pride in being a physicist.

Speaking of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Chen Muwu thought of another funny thing.

It was said that the most watery Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to the Swedish engineer Nils Gustav Dahren who won the Nobel Prize in 1912 for his invention of a gas automatic regulator that ignites beacon lights and buoy lights.

There is a saying in wild history that Darren was able to win the award that year because the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences originally wanted to award the Physics Prize that year to Edison and Tesla at the same time.

As a result, neither of these two rivals was willing to receive the award at the same time as the other, so they both refused.

The Swedish side had no choice but to pull out the country's engineer for a temporary rescue.

But if you want to say that the best chemistry award, it should undoubtedly be the one in 1945 in the original time and space.

The Physics Prize of the same year was awarded to Pauli for his discovery of the exclusion principle.

The Physiology or Medicine Prize was awarded to Alexander Fleming and others for the discovery of penicillin.

The former promoted the development of physics, especially quantum aspects, while the latter saved countless lives.

In the same year, the Chemistry Prize was awarded because of how to store feed.

This invention allows Europeans to obtain sufficient milk supply in winter, and it is indeed a great invention if it is taken out alone.

Just a horizontal comparison, its gold content is not so sufficient.

This award was too low, so low that Chen Muwu didn't even have the desire to keep it for himself.

But this made him wander off again, and thinking of something interesting brought a smile to the corner of his mouth.

This made Oppenheimer mistakenly think that the experiment proposed by his teacher should lead to another major discovery.

He was the first to raise his hand: "Teacher, I want to go with you!"

"Are you sure?" The first reaction of Chen Muwu, who came back to his senses, was not to agree, but to question, "Let me warn you first, this experiment will be very boring."

He didn't say that to reject Oppenheimer, but it was what it was.

The boiling point of liquid deuterium is 23.5K, while that of liquid hydrogen is 20.38K.

Utilizing the temperature difference of three Kelvin between the two, deuterium gas can be fractionated from liquid hydrogen.

It’s just that the output of this method is terrible. After 5 liters of liquid hydrogen are distilled to the end, only 1 ml of deuterium can be produced.

Chen Muwu felt that Oppenheimer's patience was not enough to support him to complete this boring experiment that required repeated repetitions.

Thinking of this, he has already selected someone to do the experiment with him.

"Brother Shunruo, why don't you go to London with me?"

Oppenheimer increasingly felt that learning Chinese well was too important.

Now he doesn't even know who Mr. Chen chose, he only knows that it's not himself anyway.
