Chapter 417 Talent in Computational Physics
Sitting in the car again, Chen Zhou obviously found that Friedman seemed to be a little different.

If talking about the observation results in the morning, Friedman still hesitated in the seminar in the afternoon.

Now he has completely returned to the state of full confidence and will continue to pursue this confidence.

On the way back, Friedman began to assign tasks to Chen Zhou.

The data collected in this experiment will be released to Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou's research only needs to be responsible to Friedman.

At the same time, Friedman also arranged for Cross to assist Chen Zhou in data processing.

Chen Zhou was extremely surprised by such an arrangement.

This is tantamount to giving him the greatest opportunity, and openness.

Compared to Chen Zhou's astonishment, after being surprised, Cross became a little more flat.

From the appearance of Chen Zhou, to all the things that happened later, to this moment.

Cross's doubts, although there are still some, have also been solved a lot.

While driving, he smiled and said to Chen Zhou: "I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future."

Chen Zhou glanced at Cross, and replied, "Professor Cross, happy cooperation."

But immediately, Chen Zhou asked Friedman in puzzlement: "Professor, do you trust me so much?"

Friedman waved his hand, looked at Chen Zhou and said, "This is not a successful experiment, nor is it because I trust you so much..."

Chen Zhou still looked at Friedman in confusion.

Friedman laughed: "I just believe in your talent in computational physics!"

Chen Zhou froze for a moment, talent in computational physics?
Although computational physics has a calculation, isn't this a branch of information science?

Historically, computational physics was the first application of computers?

The definition of so-called computational physics is to study how to use numerical methods to analyze quantifiable physical problems.

But then, Chen Zhou realized something.

Computational physics is also sometimes seen as a subdiscipline, or subproblem, of theoretical physics.

Some people even believe that computational physics is closely related to theoretical physics and experimental physics.

And relatively independent, it is the third largest branch of physics.

Obviously, what Friedman meant should be the latter.

Seeing the surprised expression on Chen Zhou's face, Friedman explained: "I have read two physics papers you published."

"One is on the subject research of 'Principles and Applications of Intense Pulsed Particle Beams'. Although it is a subject of Yenching National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences, the first author of the paper is you."

"The other one is your graduation thesis in the Physics Department of Yenching University. Although the research is only on the optimal design of particle accelerator diodes, there are a lot of thoughts in it."

"Of course, the difficulty of these two topics is not too great. It is also very suitable for students like you who are new to the field of high-energy physics."

"But..." Friedman said appreciatively, "The method you used in it is simply amazing! It even gave me the illusion that you are the future of computational physics!"

Hearing Friedman's words, Chen Zhou's expression became even more surprised.

This compliment, coming from a big man like Friedman, is not insignificant!

The future of computational physics?

The future of the third largest branch of physics?
Chen Zhou really didn't expect that Friedman would describe him in this way.

He was a little dazed.

Chen Zhou has always been very careful about himself, and he is still so, let alone Cross, who is driving in the front row.

It was the first time Cross had heard Friedman praise someone so much.

And a young... mathematician?

This is simply unbelievable!

Cross' surprise even caused him to drive, almost hitting the oncoming car.

If it wasn't for Friedman's sudden reminder, Chen Zhou would probably see himself on the news again tomorrow.

Friedman said with a heavy tone: "Cross, please don't make fun of our lives!"

Cross wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Professor Friedman, it's my fault."

After a pause, Cross couldn't help but said, "Just now, what you said was really surprising!"

Friedman just reminded him again, "Drive well and be safe," without too much explanation.

Maybe others couldn't see Chen Zhou's talent in the two papers, but he did.

That kind of sensitivity to data, that kind of rigorous calculation, that kind of ingenious combination of theory and calculation.

Especially the choice of direction is simply intoxicating!
That's right, Friedman was fascinated by Chen Zhou's two papers!
Chen Zhou also came back to his senses, organized his language, and said sincerely: "Professor Friedman, thank you for your high evaluation of me. Thank you for giving me such a chance."

Friedman said, "This is what you earned."

Chen Zhou was stunned again, then smiled and didn't speak.

Listening to the conversation between the two, although Cross was confused, it was like why Friedman came to the beach today.

He doesn't understand what's so good about the dark Pacific Ocean.

However, in his heart, he already had an answer.

That is, after going back, we must find out the two papers written by Chen Zhou and study them carefully!
But in fact, what Friedman did not say is.

For the branch of computational physics, the path to take is even more difficult.

Because this is a branch of physics that combines theory and experiment.

The reason why he didn't say anything was, of course, to see how far Chen Zhou could go on this road.

In the second half of the road, Cross made no more mistakes.

Safely sent Chen Zhou and Friedman back to the hotel.

However, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

Friedman went straight back to the room, while Chen Zhou was at the front desk, asking if there was any supper.

Although eating after 10 o'clock is not good for your health.

But at noon, because of thinking about the problems of this experiment and the seminar in the afternoon, Chen Zhou didn't eat much.

This would be starving.

The young lady at the front desk took a meaningful look at Chen Zhou, and finally said that the snack would be delivered to Chen Zhou's room later, and asked him to go back and wait.

Chen Zhou said thank you, and went back to his room, planning to take a hot bath and then have a good meal.

However, what Chen Zhou didn't expect was that there was a knock on the door of his room just after taking a shower.

"So fast?" Chen Zhou was a little surprised.

Then he got up and went to open the door.

Outside the door, it was none other than the glamorous young lady at the front desk.

She changed clothes and held a tray with two glasses of wine in her hand.

The lady at the front desk gave Chen Zhou a charming smile: "Mr. Chen, your supper is here~"

Chen Zhou completely ignored this charming lady at the front desk, his eyes were all on the food and wine on the tray.

Reaching out to take the tray, Chen Zhou said thank you, turned around and entered the room, and closed the door without any hassle.

Outside the door, the lady at the front desk was stunned.

What's the situation with this person?
Although I really wanted to knock on the door again, but I raised my hand and could only put it down angrily.

In the room, Chen Zhou was feasting.

He didn't expect that the supper in this hotel was quite exquisite.

Although the amount is not much, it is delicious.

The most important thing is, can you get two glasses of this wine?
Do you know that I am thirsty?
