Chapter 491 Continuation of the Era
Chapter 491 Continuation of the Era
"Distinguished guests, scholars, professors, graduate students, scientific research workers..."
"Welcome everyone to come here and witness with us, looking for decades of gumball..."
"And witness with us, the decommissioning ceremony of all the colliders in SLAC..."
"Starting with the linear high-energy electron accelerator SLAC Linac, these colliders have been in continuous service for nearly 50 years..."
"It's a great honor, as the original researcher, I accompanied them to the end..."
"It's also very fortunate that because of SLAC Linac, I won the 1990 Nobel Prize in Physics together with Professor Kendall and Professor Taylor..."
"Of course, the discoveries made by SLAC are far more than these. Before us, the experimental group led by Professor Richter has carried out the research on the collision of matter and antimatter through the electron-positron accelerator ring SPEAR, and successfully discovered the charm Quark..."
"In addition, there is also Professor Pell, who used SPEAR to discover the third generation of leptons produced after electron-positron collisions, that is, tau particles..."
Before Friedman took the stage, he had already adjusted his emotions.
For a successful scientist like him, the so-called fame and fortune are nothing but an affirmation of his own achievements.
The reason why he said these words at the opening of this conference of physicists.
It is because of nostalgia and reluctance.
Before this conference of physicists, the U.S. Department of Energy and Stanford University had already begun to shut down the laboratory.
The place where Friedman has worked all his life is really gone now.
Other emotions, perhaps.
But it's not that important.
SLAC, with its outstanding achievements, cannot be ignored in the history of physics, especially in the history of high energy physics.
When speaking on stage, Friedman felt that the scene of his old work seemed to be in front of him.
Time flies, and the time in a person's life is really limited.
Friedman feels that it is worthwhile to dedicate his life to the scientific research cause he loves.
To be able to achieve fruitful research results in this career, Friedman thinks it is really good and very happy.
Withdrawing the thoughts that were gradually drawn away by himself, Friedman glanced at the audience, and smiled slowly: "Everyone, don't think I'm long-winded, just give the old man a little more time, what you are looking forward to, there will be more in the future." Yes. I believe that young people will be able to speak better than me, an old man."
Hearing Friedman's words, everyone in the audience smiled understandingly.
There are also quite a few people, looking at where Chen Zhou is.
Now, whether it is in the world of mathematics or physics, there are really not many people who do not know the name Chen Zhou.
There are definitely not a few people who came to Chen Zhou for this conference of physicists.
Chen Zhou naturally also felt the attention being paid attention to, which was simply too common for him.
It's just that the people who pay attention have changed from students to experts in the field.
After thinking for a while, Chen Zhou took the lead in applauding Friedman.
The applause gradually warmed up.
This is not only for the old people on stage, but also for SLAC, which has made great contributions.
Looking at the crowd applauding, Friedman was slightly moved.
But soon, he adjusted his mood, and when the applause disappeared, Friedman continued:
"As we all know, there are many particles in the universe. The discovery of new matter and new particles will definitely help us uncover the mystery of the universe."
"It can also advance the process of 'new physics', and the large collider is a kind of machine suitable for microscopic physics research..."
"It is true that in the process of collider research, there are constraints of various reasons, and there may always be a great asymmetry between investment and harvest, because scientific research itself has great uncertainty..."
"But the facts have also proved that the large collider has not let us down in the past research process..."
"Whether it is the new particles discovered by SLAC or the Higgs particle discovered by CERN, they are all precious wealth we have harvested..."
"I believe that in the near future, we will also be able to obtain what we all long for on the collider..."
When he said this, Friedman's expression was slightly gloomy.
If it weren't for the transformation of the world's high-energy physics research center, if it weren't for the rise of CERN, maybe SLAC's collider laboratory would still have a period of life.
But this is also the necessity of historical development and the necessity of the development of scientific research.
You can't pin your future on backward equipment.
Here, Friedman can say frankly that although he has some helplessness, it also means that he admits this fact.
Among other things, CERN does represent a future possibility in a sense.
During the construction of CERN, in order to ensure the normal progress of the project, more than 8000 scientists and technicians participated in it.
After 14 years of hard work and financial support from dozens of countries, here at CERN, the world's largest Hadron Collider was finally built.
And the result, as Friedman said.
After being officially put into use, the world's largest hadron collider discovered the Higgs boson known as the "God particle".
It is also this fact that has given confidence to many physicists, including Friedman who is on stage at the moment.
They all believe that the large collider is bound to find some exciting matter.
Even some physicists assert that extra spatial dimensions, dark matter particles, or some new symmetry can all be discovered through the large collider.
"As I said before, matter is the basic structure that constitutes the universe. Research in any scientific field is inseparable from the study of microscopic particles." After sorting out his thoughts, Friedman continued.
"Finding out the laws and mysteries of the microcosm will enable human beings to know more clearly 'where we should come from and where we should go'."
"From this perspective, particle research through large colliders is absolutely necessary. At the same time, using colliders for particle research can also contribute to the cultivation of talents."
"From mediocrity to excellence, the growth of a scientist must be rooted in practical research, and the science that stays in theoretical research cannot be called real science in the strict sense."
"Only by combining practice and theory can a scientist go further and create more infinite possibilities. Only by participating in more advanced research can a scientist achieve greater breakthroughs."
After speaking, Friedman paused for a moment, and glanced at Chen Zhou intentionally or unintentionally.
Although Chen Zhou's growth rate is fast, Friedman feels that, on the one hand, it is his outstanding physics talent and his almost quasi-intuitive physics intuition.
On the other hand, it is also related to the scientific research environment he has come into contact with.
Even if you don't talk about SLAC, since Chen Zhou's admission report at MIT, he has led him to join the glue ball experiment project.
When he was at Yenching University, Friedman also knew Chen Zhou, who started from a particle accelerator.
Even if the experimental conditions over there are not as good as those at SLAC.
But this starting point is beyond the reach of most graduate students.
Not to mention, Chen Zhou was only an undergraduate when he was studying at Yanda University.
Chen Zhou, who had been staring at the stage, was naturally keen to notice Friedman's seemingly casual glance.
As far as Chen Zhou is concerned, he is very grateful to this professor.
Take the recent one as an example, if Friedman hadn’t taken him to the beach, showed him the Pigeon Point Lighthouse, and told him about his “research experience”.
If it wasn't for Friedman who gave him a lot of freedom from the beginning, he chose to believe his words.
Then, this last glue ball experiment will definitely not be successful.
How long will he be troubled by the problem of "sexual confinement"?
And it haunted him after he left SLAC.
Looking back, Friedman began the final speech.
"The discovery of glue balls will be the last gift SLAC dedicates to the physics community. Before the start of this conference, all collider laboratories in SLAC have been shut down one after another..."
Hearing that SLAC has shut down all the collider laboratories one after another, the people in the audience still had some small commotions.
After all, the conference of physicists, held largely because of the glueballs, officially started today.
Moreover, what Friedman said at the beginning made everyone think that the shutdown of the collider laboratory should be after the conference.
Unexpectedly, the "meritorious minister" discovered by the rubber ball had already been retired before that.
Does this seem a bit "anxious"?
But this is SLAC's decision. At most, they can only sigh with emotion at the speed of SLAC's actions and the rapid change of times.
Otherwise, they can't say anything, and it's hard to say.
"I know you will all be thinking, why is the glue ball collider that was just discovered shut down? Doesn't the discovery of glue balls not explain its own value?"
Looking at the crowd in the audience, Friedman answered his own question with a smile: "Actually, we can think about it the other way around. The mission of SLAC is basically over if we can find the glue balls."
"Thinking that those of us researchers who have accompanied the collider are already at this age, it can be regarded as having passed through an era."
"Just like the discovery of our glue ball experiment, which was led by a young man, the future belongs to young people..."
"In the future, there will be a newer era, and an era of more young people..."
"I believe that with the joint cooperation of more and more scholars who are obsessed with 'new physics', the efforts made by our predecessors will also be continued, and in this field, there will also be harvest. The results keep coming…”
Friedman drew a successful conclusion to SLAC's collider laboratory with the completion of the mission, the sustenance of the future, and the continuation of the times.
For SLAC, which has more dazzling achievements than CERN, this conference of physicists is indeed a perfect curtain call.
But at the same time, Friedman actually put a pressure on the future, which is on all collider laboratories.
At this time, there were bursts of applause from the audience.
The applause grew stronger.
Many experts in the field of physics all stood up and applauded.
After a while, everyone in the audience applauded and stood up.
This applause is not only given to SLAC who discovered the glue ball, but also to Friedman, to Chen Zhou, and to all the researchers of the glue ball experiment...
It is also given to the scientists who have been deeply involved in physics research, and to all the young people present...
It is also given to the era of struggle in the past, and to the era of more hope in the future...
After a while, the applause gradually weakened until it disappeared.
Immediately, Friedman announced the highlight of this conference of physicists.
That is, Chen Zhou's 1-hour report meeting.
It will be held in the lecture hall at 10:30 am.
It can be said that at least 80% of the people present came for Chen Zhou's report.
Coupled with Friedman's vague foreshadowing in the opening speech, the future, and the sustenance of young people, it is almost impossible to directly mention Chen Zhou's name.
It also made everyone's attention raised again.
Originally, SLAC planned to arrange a 45-minute report for Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou himself actually had no opinion.
Generally speaking, for a conference of physicists of this level, the top match is almost a 45-minute report meeting.
After all, this is a conference of physicists unilaterally organized by SLAC, and at most Stanford University is used as the venue.
However, Friedman insisted on arranging a one-hour report meeting for Chen Zhou, which was also the only one-hour report meeting.
The length of time represents the importance of research.
What is Chen Zhou's research?
It's a gumball!
It is a new discovery in the field of high energy physics!
It is a new particle that shocked the world!
Not to mention, Chen Zhou is still in the process of solving the source and mechanism of "sexual confinement"!
What kind of problem is "color confinement"?
In a sense, this is an essential problem of high energy physics!
Before arriving at Chen Zhou, this was a question that hadn't even been touched!
Although in the "color confinement" problem, where is the critical point of the phase transition of fading confinement, and where does the phase line start.
In each model, there is its own prophecy.
But before Chen Zhou, no theory was reliable or complete.
There is no experimental plan to verify it.
It wasn't until the inspiration that Chen Zhou gained this time helped him solve some problems in the "sexual confinement" and successfully found the glue ball.
Friedman believes that with these research results, Chen Zhou is fully worthy of the one-hour report meeting, and they don't care whether the level of this conference of physicists is high enough.
As long as their research results are of a sufficient level.
In other words, the discovery of glue balls and the resolution of the "color confinement" problem will virtually raise the level of this conference of physicists in terms of content.
After a short break, the time will come to 10:[-] as Friedman said.
In the lecture hall, there were many people.
It is no less than when Friedman spoke at the opening ceremony just now, and even more.
Some young people dressed as students sneaked in "quietly".
All eyes were on the young people on the stage.
This young man can probably be regarded as an outstanding "continuer of the era" in the new era of physics, as Friedman said.
Of course, this young man is also an outstanding mathematician.
Chen Zhou is communicating with the staff at the moment.
He didn't know if he would need help later...
Although he can use words to explain possible problems.
But if you can write, it's better not to use your mouth.
After all, that would save him trouble, and others would be intuitive too...
The update has been interrupted for two days, and the update is resumed today...
