Chapter 488 The Big Bosses Who Are Misjudged and the School With Prosperous Investment Reports



Chapter 488 The Big Bosses Who Are Misjudged and the School with a Great Return on Investment

In the official SLAC, when the two news of "glue ball was discovered" and "collider laboratory shut down" were released.

Many people in the physics community are speculating whether Friedman will become the fifth person in history to win the Nobel Prize twice.

Unexpectedly, the author of the paper published in "Physical Review Letters" is actually a mathematician.

This is also something that no one has thought of, or even thought about.

Near Princeton University, the world-renowned theoretical research institution, the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study.

At the moment, in the office of the dean of the School of Natural Sciences.

Edward Witten looked helplessly at the white-haired old man in glasses.

Obviously when you watched Deligne, Langlands and others suggest to Princeton University that they should recruit Chen Zhou to Princeton University.

Still pouring cold water on the sidelines, I feel that the young people in Huaguo are all "genius" types who have no successors.

Therefore, Chen Zhou's future is also extremely pessimistic.

But now, why does a paper published in "Physical Review Letters" make you regret it?

The person Edward Witten was slandering at this time was none other than the British physicist, Peter Goddard.

The old man wearing glasses is also the current dean of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

Famous for his work on string theory.

And in 1997, together with David Oliver, he won the Dirac Medal, an annual award set up by the International Center for Theoretical Physics in 1985 to commemorate the British physicist Dirac.

This is the highest honor in theoretical and mathematical physics.

Dean Goddard glanced at Wei Teng, who had a helpless expression, and said regretfully, "Why didn't you give me some constructive advice from the perspective of professional mathematics?"

Wei Teng opened his mouth, wanting to refute this person immediately, but finally said: "My dear Goddard, what Chen Zhou first showed was only mathematics, especially the extremely high talent in the field of number theory."

"This is the evaluation given by Faltings, Deligne, Langlands and others from the very beginning. And I have always thought so. Even when we arrived at the award-winning scene of the Cole Number Theory Award, we It’s still the same view.”

"Even if SLAC announced the discovery of glue balls, the first thing we thought of was that Friedman would win another Nobel Prize in Physics..."

Hearing Witten's explanation, Dean Goddard sighed softly: "It's not just us, it is estimated that no one in the entire physics world would have thought that a young mathematician would theoretically solve the problem of glue balls. study the problem, and found the glueball that so many high-energy physicists were looking for..."

Wei Teng nodded, and then said: "It's useless for us to regret it now, believe Deligne and the others, they regret it more than us..."

Goddard smiled softly, and said: "You should be right, the value of his mathematics paper is not low, I believe that the old man Faltins is beating his chest with Deligne and others at this moment... ..."

Goddard's words cannot be miscalculated.

At this time, Faltins, Deligne, and Langlands were gathering together in Deligne's office at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

That's right, the three of them also "coincidentally" met together for the papers published by Chen Zhou.

The three of them were all a little emotional. This kid was clearly talking about studying Goldbach's conjecture, so why did he suddenly say "the linear representation of Artin's L function"?
However, this linear representation is still in the "Galois group"...

For no reason, the three of them sneezed together.

Langlands also said with emotion: "It seems that we are really old, the weather has already warmed up, but we sneezed..."

Unaware of Goddard's words, Witten, who had caused some trouble to some old friends in the School of Mathematics, glanced at the old friend who was still frowning and beating his chest just now, but now he was a little "gloating".

If he didn't know Goddard's temper, Witten would definitely complain.

But at this moment, looking at Goddard's appearance, Wei Teng felt even more emotional: "However, being able to reject the olive branch offered by people like Faltins at the same time is also doomed for Chen Zhou to miss Princeton..."

Goddard glanced at Witten, shook his head, and said softly: "I don't believe you, Faltins, Deligne, so many of you will be blind."

"It can only be said that Chen Zhou's growth rate, learning efficiency, and his own choice and grasp of the future are far beyond what we have seen."

Wei Teng froze for a moment, then nodded slowly: "What you said...the two papers he published this time have indeed completely refreshed the academic world's inherent understanding of him."

"Moreover, in almost three short years, he has not only made such outstanding research results in many fields of mathematics, but also dropped a blockbuster in the field of high-energy physics. .”

"What's more, considering his current age, he is really too young. Being able to show his unlimited potential in just three years at such a young age, I really don't know what will happen to him in the future... ..."

"You are right, it is indeed a potential blockbuster." Dean Goddard agreed with Witten's statement, "I think everyone thought that Chen Zhou I will continue to work in the field of number theory in order to achieve higher academic achievements."

"Because, he did exactly that. He applied for the number theory research topic of Goldbach's conjecture in Huaguo's 'Ten Thousand People Project'."

"However, no one thought that Chen Zhou is not a person who is limited to the research of a topic in front of him, but a person who is full of energy and has the courage to practice."

"Whether it is other fields of mathematics, or the field of physics that everyone has always believed will become a burden to Chen Zhou and hinder Chen Zhou from growing into an outstanding mathematician in the field of mathematics, he has not let go of any of them, and has devoted himself to doing research in every field. study."

Rao is the dean of the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, who has always been known for his hard work and won the highest honor in the field of theory and mathematical physics. When he said these words, he also had great appreciation for Chen Zhou.

Goddard has seen many outstanding physicists, and he has encountered many outstanding mathematicians.

However, it is rare for Chen Zhou to achieve such outstanding academic achievements in both mathematics and physics at such a young age.

Not to mention, Chen Zhou realized his talent in just three years.

Even the legendary Goddard, who won the Fields Medal but devoted himself to studying physics, history and economist Edward Witten.

At Chen Zhou's age, Wei Teng's academic achievements cannot be compared with Chen Zhou's.

Thinking of this, Goddard couldn't help shaking his head. Even at this age, if he is added, it may not be able to match what Chen Zhou has achieved today.

Both Witten and Goddard were silent for a while.

It has to be said that the talent shown by Chen Zhou has already made these two big men in the physics field appreciate it very much, and also regret it very much.

Otherwise, Peter Goddard, the dean of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, would not have had such a conversation with Witten.

Although, the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University have no mutual affiliation.

But there is a deep connection between the two.

The Princeton Institute for Advanced Study first borrowed the office of the Princeton Department of Mathematics to watch research work.

The early key personnel, such as von Neumann and Van Buren, also came from the Department of Mathematics of Princeton University.

At the same time, many professors at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton are also part-time professors at Princeton University.

Even now, it is the same.

Just like Deligne, Langlands, Witten and others are also professors at Princeton University.

Therefore, Dean Goddard still regrets that he did not bring Chen Zhou to Princeton when he graduated from undergraduate.

But as he said, even the olive branches thrown by Faltins and others did not move Chen Zhou's heart.

It was already doomed that this young man had no chance with Princeton.

Therefore, in Goddard's heart, apart from regret, there is still regret.

After a while, Goddard looked at Witten and said, "Have you read the glueball paper carefully?"

Wei Teng raised his head and looked at Goddard. He naturally understood the dean's meaning: "I studied it carefully the first time I got it, but..."

Goddard signaled Witten to continue, but he opened the latest issue of Physical Review Letters.

"However, this should not be an experimental guidance paper for SLAC to discover glueballs. In this paper, the content of theoretical research is indeed very deep. Whether it is conventional quantum number glueballs or strange quantum number glueballs, there are extremely profound cognition."

"Including the collider experiment, the method of detecting glue balls and the detector itself also have impressive innovations, but I feel that this should not be enough."

After Witten finished speaking, Goddard was silent for a while, and then said: "Your opinion is the same as mine. Although this paper has given the next step of the glue ball experiment, it still feels poor. a little bit."

"There is a high probability that it is impossible to pass this paper and complete the glue ball discovery experiment. I think that at least several collider experiments are needed to continue to advance the theory of this paper."

Witten reached for the "Physical Review Letters" in Goddard's hand, and turned to Chen Zhou's paper.

Looking at the author's name "ZHOU CHEN" clearly printed on it, Witten said with emotion again: "We all thought that Friedman had the latest research results in this field, and finally helped SLAC's collider The lab, before shutting down, found the glueballs."

"But I didn't expect that the person who finally helped Friedman and SLAC's collider laboratory to 'retire' in an honorable way was a young mathematician. Thanks to us, we have guessed for so long time……"

Goddard also said: "Although SLAC's final experimental paper has not been published, and Chen Zhou himself has not officially responded. But the paper published in "Physical Review Letters" has basically told the physics community what the answer is."

"Now, I'm really looking forward to the follow-up operation at SLAC, Friedman's final decision, and the paper on the final experiment."

Wei Teng nodded slightly: "Not only us, but I believe the entire physics community is waiting for news from SLAC, and they are all working on the next paper."

Goddard thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I think they should hold a conference of physicists..."

Fortunately, no outsiders can see the scenes at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

Otherwise, not only Chen Zhou, probably everyone would not have thought of it.

Chen Zhou's two papers surprised all the bigwigs at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

As Dean Goddard said, it's quite the meaning of beating one's chest.

Not only the pity that I was a little bit blind, but also the regret that I didn't persevere.

Especially when they thought that when Chen Zhou had just graduated from Yenching University, Princeton had a great opportunity, they were even more uncomfortable.

This also caused the students of Princeton University to be a little strange.

These are the big guys who like to give some advice on the latest research results on weekdays.

Why is it so quiet this time?
It's as if you didn't see the two papers published by that shining new star?
But this is impossible. It is our "Annual of Mathematics" that published other people's mathematics papers, so how could we not know?
no one can explain clearly...

Except for the strange atmosphere of Princeton University and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, the atmosphere of MIT is extremely cheerful.

Especially the managers of MIT, they are in a very good mood.

Originally, I was worried about whether the joint training plan signed with Yenching University about Chen Zhou would have a bad influence on MIT.

In other words, whether the protagonist of the joint training program can grow up as expected.

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhou has only been in MIT for less than a year.

It has already brought back the highest honor in the field of number theory, the Cole Prize in Number Theory.

Now, he is even helping Professor Friedman to complete the glue ball experiment when SLAC is about to shut down all collider laboratories.

This glueball, which has plagued the physics community for decades and only existed in theoretical predictions, was detected.

This is simply an overpayment of the investment in the joint training plan!

If it is in the investment field, this should be regarded as a doubled income.

Because the discovery of glue balls means the birth of a Nobel Prize in Physics.

Even if the outside world is still passing the paper in the "Physical Review Letters", it is guessing who completed the theoretical guidance of the final experiment of the glue ball.

But the managers of MIT have already learned the ins and outs of the whole thing from Friedman.

They have almost seen Chen Zhou win the Nobel Prize in Physics.

No matter how many times this school has won such awards, such honors.

It will never let go of the opportunity to win this highest honor again.

Moreover, this also means that the school's current academic research level is still at the forefront of the world.

If it is said that the bigwigs in Princeton are "missing their eyes".

MIT, then, is the real return on investment.

The other party that belongs to the joint training program is the School of Mathematics and Physics of Yenching University, as well as the leaders of the school.

At this moment, an emergency meeting is also being held.
