From university academician to chief academician

Chapter 325 Edward Witten, the greatest scientist in the world?

Kyoto, Department of Science and Technology, Geng Ye's office!

Geng Ye was at work when the red phone he placed on the table rang.

There are two phones on his desk, one black and one red. When the red phone rings, it means something very important.

Geng Ye heard the phone ringing and looked up at the red phone. He immediately answered: "Hello, I'm Geng Ye."

"Geng Si!" Qi Yong's voice came from the phone, saying: "I am Qi Yong."

Geng Ye heard this and said expectantly: "Qi Si, how is the test of the controllable nuclear fusion theory going?"

Many people in Xia Kingdom are paying attention to the research on controllable nuclear fusion.

Geng Ye told Qi Yong before he went to the Northwest.

After the controllable nuclear fusion theory is tested, regardless of whether it is successful or not, you must give him a call.

Qi Yong said: "Although there were some twists and turns, Academician Ye finally solved it, and the test of controllable nuclear fusion theory was successful."

When Geng Ye heard this, he laughed and said: "Okay, very good, Qi Si, on behalf of our Science and Technology Department, you would like to express your gratitude to all the researchers at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute."

"I will." Qi Yong said.

Geng Ye asked: "Is the research and application part next?"

Qi Yong said: "Yes, I asked Academician Ye, and he said that the applied research on controllable nuclear fusion is much simpler than the theory, and it is expected to be completed in more than two years."

"He said that if everything goes well, the world's first controllable nuclear fusion station will be built in 2041."

Geng Ye nodded slightly, very satisfied with the result.

Geng Ye said: "Okay, hang up. I want to report the news to the superiors."

After hanging up the phone, Geng Ye was very excited and clenched his fists: "The research on controllable nuclear fusion is about to be successful. Our country is the fastest country in the world to complete research on controllable nuclear fusion."

"Other countries are still groping in the theoretical stage. If they want to develop controllable nuclear fusion, it will take at least twenty years."

"In the past twenty years, our country has made a big step forward by relying on controllable nuclear fusion."

The saying that technology will never have a monopoly has not been researched yet, but it will be researched sooner or later.

The same is true for controllable nuclear fusion. Xia Guo only researched it in advance. After more than 20 years, other countries will also research it.

But this time difference can allow Xia Guo to take a big step forward.

Geng Ye said: "The superiors must be very happy to hear this news. I will tell them the news immediately."

After saying that, Geng Ye picked up the red phone and dialed.

He chatted with the person on the phone for about half an hour before hanging up.

Great Northwest, Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, conference room!

Ye Fei stood at the head of the table, with the leaders of each group sitting below him, saying: "Our theoretical research on controllable nuclear fusion has been completed, and now we will start applied research."

"According to our theoretical research direction, applied research uses heavy particles to drive all particles to achieve pulses of particle beam inertial confinement fusion."

“This is the most difficult and most dangerous place in applied research.”

"If there is an error in research, it could easily cause a nuclear explosion."

"The nuclear explosion produced by nuclear fusion is equivalent to an atomic bomb."

"If something goes wrong here, all of us here will be killed."

Even if there are mistakes in theoretical research on controllable nuclear fusion, they will not endanger lives.

After all, theoretical research is just numbers and formulas written out.

Applied research is different. It creates physical objects. During the manufacturing process, nuclear fuel fusion occurs, producing super energy.

If this energy leaks, it will be a disaster. Everyone present will be killed and no one will survive.

Everyone's eyes looked very solemn when they heard this.

They also knew what Ye Fei said.

Research on the theory of controllable nuclear fusion is technically difficult, but not dangerous.

Applied research, on the other hand, is technically less difficult but dangerous.

And, once danger occurs, there is only one possibility, death!

Ye Feidao: "So, in order to reduce the risk factor, I decided to divide all research on controllable nuclear fusion into several parts and conduct research simultaneously."

"Move the most dangerous parts from the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute and put them in the no-man's land to the west."

"Even if there is an explosion, this place will not be affected."

"More than two months ago, I had people build a building in an uninhabited land."

"I will personally take people there to conduct research."

After hearing this, everyone said nervously: "Dean, you are the person in charge of controllable nuclear fusion. You can't go. We have to go."

"Yes, Dean, we are the ones who have to go. It doesn't matter even if we die there, but you are different. If something happens to you, it will be a huge loss to the country."

Talents like Ye Fei are national treasures, and there are very few in the world.

If Ye Fei died, the loss would be huge.

Therefore, they must not let anything happen to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei waved his hand, glared at them and said, "You are all raised by your mother and father, so it doesn't matter if you die there. Is my life, Ye Fei's, more valuable than yours?"

"We are all equal, no one's life is more valuable than anyone else's."

"If any one of us dies, our loved ones will be grieved."

"I am the person in charge of controlled nuclear fusion, and I know the most about controlled nuclear fusion among all of you."

"If you recognize me as the person in charge, then let me study the most dangerous parts."

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with hesitation.

Ye Feidao: "Okay, that's it. Let's allocate the tasks."

Next, everyone began to assign tasks.

The entire meeting lasted half a day.

In the afternoon, Ye Fei just returned to the office after lunch and prepared to take a nap.

He was just lying on the sofa with a blanket covering him.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

Ye Fei looked up and muttered dissatisfied: "Who are these? They don't let anyone sleep at noon."

After saying that, he lifted the blanket, sat up and put on his shoes and said, "Please come in!"

The door opened and Qi Yong walked in.

Qi Yong has not left the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute. He recently visited all the researchers at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute to learn about their living conditions and express condolences.

After all, living in this deserted place, the surrounding environment is very harsh.

Their living conditions are naturally not as good as those in the interior.

This will affect the physical and mental health of many researchers.

Therefore, it is very necessary to understand the living conditions of researchers.

In this way, Qi Yong can also prescribe the right medicine to keep them healthy and doing research safely.

Qi Yong's expression was very anxious. After he walked in, he said: "Academician Ye, I heard that you are going to study the most dangerous part of controllable nuclear fusion? If you make a mistake, you will be killed. Is it true?"

Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "It's true."

Immediately, Ye Fei pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Qi Si, please sit down."

After Qi Yong sat down, he said: "I don't agree!"

"I heard that if there is a slight mistake in this part of the research you are about to study, it will explode with the power of an atomic bomb."

"Academician Ye, you are a national talent. Even if the research on controllable nuclear fusion is delayed for several years, we don't want anything to happen to you."

"Send someone else!"

Ye Fei shook his head slightly and said: "Qi Si, I am the person who knows the most about controllable nuclear fusion at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute."

"Having me do it will minimize errors, which is also the greatest safety guarantee for all researchers studying this part of the technology."

"I wouldn't worry if someone else goes."

"So, it's only okay if I go."

Qi Yong said impatiently: "What if you get into an accident?"

"If something happens to you, how will I report it to my superiors? How will I report it to the country?"

"And your parents, think about your parents, how sad they would be if they knew something happened to you?"

"I won't be able to explain to your parents then."

Ye Feidao: "Qi Si, my parents will be sad if something happens to me. If something happens to other researchers, won't their parents be sad?"

"Someone has to do things, why not me!"

"Qi Si, don't worry, I will do my best to ensure the safety of my life."

"I am also confident that I can ensure that the research is completed without any accidents."

Qi Yong looked at Ye Fei's firm expression and felt very helpless. He sighed and said, "Hey...then you have to ensure your own safety. Even if the research is unsuccessful, you cannot be harmed in any way."

"If the research fails, we will lose some money at most. We still have a chance, but if you are gone, everything will be lost, and the research will be stagnant."

Ye Fei smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, Qi Si, I cherish my life very much. I am only in my thirties now, and I still have a long way to go in the future."

Beiliguo, Princeton University, Witten Office!

As mentioned earlier, scientists are divided into grades, and Einstein and Newton belong to the first grade.

Yang Zhenning belongs to the second level, and Witten belongs to the third level.

But in one of Witten's studies, M theory.

If proven successful, Witten's achievements will be comparable to Einstein's and he will become a first-class scientist.

M theory belongs to the category of superstring theory and is a theory proposed based on the ultimate theory of physics. It is one of the derivatives of the ultimate theory of physics.

M theory is a supergravity theory that combines five superstring theories and eleven-dimensional space.

If M theory is proven successful, the development of the universe can be simulated mathematically.

And then help prove the ultimate theory of physics.

The ultimate theory of physics is the theory of everything.

The theory of everything refers to the assumed existence of a comprehensive and consistent physical theoretical framework that can explain all the physical mysteries of the universe.

After centuries of hard work, people have developed two theoretical frameworks, general relativity and quantum field theory.

If general relativity and quantum field theory can be unified, it will be the closest to the imaginable theory of everything.

Ye Fei has proven successful on this issue.

The unification of quantum mechanics and relativity includes the unification of general relativity and quantum field theory.

Witten was sitting at his desk writing furiously with his eyes shining brightly.

[Einstein once said that the most incomprehensible thing about this world is that this world is understandable.

Today, the most incomprehensible thing about M theory is that it has actually taken a big step forward in understanding the world.

W=W+W……

cosθw=g/(g+q)^(1/2)

The connection between M theory, 11-dimensional supergravity, type I superstrings, type IIA superstrings, type IIB superstrings, SO(32) hybrid strings and E8XE8 hybrid strings.

M-theory is a more general theory that includes these six theories.

These six theories can be regarded as the situations at the six corners of M theory.

Therefore, this can prove M-theory. 】

Witten put down his pen, slumped down on the chair, exhaled a long breath, with an excited look on his face.

He has been proving M theory since the 1990s.

M theory is also the most famous theory among superstring theories.

If proven successful, the development of the universe could be simulated mathematically.

Moreover, he can also win the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.

Moreover, his personal reputation is on par with scientific giants such as Einstein and Newton.

For thousands of years to come, people all over the world will remember him.

A man named Edward Witten once proposed and proved the M theory.

Witten smiled in his heart: "Maybe one day in the future, I can unify general relativity and quantum field theory. At that time, my reputation will surpass Einstein and Newton and become the world's number one scientist."

After speaking, Witten exhaled and shook his head in his mind: "I think too much. I am still a long way from unifying general relativity and quantum field theory."

Witten looked at what he had written on the table and smiled: "Let the entire scientific world tremble next!"

"I, Edward Witten, am the greatest scientist among the living scientists in the world today."

"Yang Zhenning, Ye Fei, these people are not as good as me."

After saying that, he checked the proof process of M theory he wrote several times, modified it, input it into the computer, and then hung it on Arxiv.

Later published in a scientific journal.

Soon after Witten posted the M-theory proof process on Arxiv, it attracted the attention of the entire scientific community.

Many people went to verify it later.

Soon, they were shocked to find that Edward Witten had proved M theory.

Many people in the entire scientific community are crazy, this is M theory!

Its reputation in the physics community is only slightly weaker than that of the ultimate theory.

If M theory proves successful, Edward Witten's status in the scientific community will be comparable to that of Einstein and Newton, these scientific giants.

Become the greatest scientist among all living scientists in the world today.

Shuimu University, Chen Ning Yang’s office!

Yang Zhenning sat in front of the computer, wearing reading glasses and watching the M theory proof process on Arxiv.

After a long while, Yang Zhenning nodded slightly: "It's not easy, he actually proved it successful."

"M theory is very helpful to physics. In addition to mathematically simulating the development of the universe, it can also help unify general relativity and quantum field theory."

"It's just..." Yang Zhenning said funnyly: "Your wish to prove the unification of general relativity and quantum field theory will be in vain."

"Because this problem has been proven by Ye Fei a long time ago."

Among the people in Xia Guo's scientific community who know many of Ye Fei's researches, apart from the people mentioned above, Yang Zhenning knows him best.

Shortly after Ye Fei proved the unity of quantum mechanics and relativity, Ye Fei told the news to his superiors.

Soon, Yang Zhenning also learned the news.

Yang Zhenning shook his head slightly and said: "Among the scientists alive in the world today, the greatest scientist?"

"I can't see it. If you want to win this crown, it depends on whether Ye Feitong agrees."

"As long as Ye Fei disagrees, you will never be able to become the greatest scientist."

Great Northwest!

Ye Fei returned to the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute from no man's land.

As soon as Ye Fei returned to the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, he received a message.

"What?" Ye Fei's eyes widened in surprise: "Did Edward Witten prove the M theory?"

"Yeah!" The researcher on the side nodded: "This matter has spread throughout the scientific community. Many people say that Edward Witten is the greatest scientist among the scientists alive in the world today."

"His achievements are on par with those of Einstein and Newton."

The researcher said unconvinced: "Dean, you have proved the unity of quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity. Your achievement is higher than Einstein."

"You are the greatest scientist in the world today, not only living scientists, but also all dead scientists."

"I saw a video of Edward Witten being interviewed by a reporter. He looked very arrogant. He also mentioned your name and said in a senior tone that you still have a lot of room for growth in the future."

"Isn't this a disguised way of saying that you are inferior to him?"

"Dean, can you really bear this tone?"

Ye Fei shook his head slightly and said: "It's unnecessary to expose the unity of quantum mechanics and relativity for a false reputation."

"The unification of quantum mechanics and relativity can help develop controllable nuclear fusion."

"For the sake of fame, if people all over the world learn the unification of quantum mechanics and relativity, this will allow some countries to develop controllable nuclear fusion."

"This will be a huge loss to us."

"But..." the researcher said still unconvinced.

Ye Fei waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Don't worry about Edward Witten becoming the greatest scientist. Our current primary goal is to develop controllable nuclear fusion. Everything else Everybody stand aside.”

"Yes, Dean!" the researcher said reluctantly. (End of chapter)
