Rule department scholar

When Keisha arrived at the working place of the domestic team, he found that the lobby and corridor were empty. He turned a corner only to find that the door of a workshop was crowded with people, as if they were talking about something.

She didn't understand even when she approached, because the domestic team all spoke Chinese.

in the workplace.

The team members helped to input the data of the D area last time, and the data just analyzed this time.

There are two kinds of data, the high-energy photon pair and the lepton respectively, and it is equal to four verifications.

After the program completes all the screening, most of the data is deleted, and the remaining data enters another algorithm that has been designed long ago.

soon.

A floor plan appeared on the computer, and a line segment appeared on the map.

This is the graph drawn by high-energy photons against momentum, and the following corresponds to a specific mass. There is an obvious "bulge" at the front end of the line segment, and the position corresponding to the "bulge" is exactly 125GeV.

When I zoomed in on the position of a 'bulge', I pulled down and found that it corresponds to the position of 125GeV, I immediately clenched my fists excitedly, "Tom, did you see it? I succeeded!"

Kibor stared at the computer image, his eyes nearly popped out, and he immediately yelled, "This is impossible!"

Ruan Wenye shouted at the same time, "Impossible! Even if it's true, it doesn't mean anything!"

"really!"

The last sentence was said by Chen Ming. His tone was very low, but his tone was full of firmness.

Zhao Yi?

A pure novice in quantum mechanics, who didn't even know the basics when he came here, how could he find the Higgs particle?

Isn't this a joke?

If this is true, should other physicists find a tall building, look down at the ground and jump down with all their strength?

alive?

Is there any point?

Chen Ming felt a little skeptical about life. He thought that luckily he didn't study physics, so he was the first to accept the result, "Congratulations!"

"impossible!"

"Absolutely fake!"

Kibor and Ruan Wenye still didn't believe it. They glanced at each other, feeling very weird.

Kibor felt that it was normal for him not to believe it, because he wanted to see how Zhao Yi failed at the beginning, but Ruan Wenye was the core of the team, and he agreed to let the team input data for Zhao Yi, he should have confidence in the research?

Ruan Wenye's idea is completely opposite. He thinks that Kibor and Zhao Yi are doing research together, and shouldn't be very excited when they find success?

Why don't you believe it like him?

However, the two of them didn't communicate much, but asked Zhao Yi to test other data quickly.

soon.

The second data test started, it was the advanced photon pairs of the D area data last time, the result was no different from the last time, a bulge was formed at the 125GeV position.

The third time and the fourth time are the test of lepton data.

The result is no different from the above two groups, except that there is a group of lepton data where the bulge is not obvious, but a little bulge can still be seen.

After the last test, Zhao Yi couldn't help standing up excitedly, "Successful!"

A group of people at the door also became excited, "It really succeeded?"

"real or fake!"

"impossible!"

"If it really succeeds, I will also have a share of the credit!"

"Zhao Yi is amazing!"

Kesha in the back row was a little dazed. She didn't know why and asked, "What are you talking about? What succeeded!"

"Higgs particle!"

Someone found a beautiful woman standing next to him, and couldn't help saying excitedly, "It's Zhao Yi! He designed a program and detected the Higgs particle!"

Keisha was stunned for a long time before she realized it, and she muttered to herself, "Design a program to detect the Higgs particle?"

"Do not make jokes!"

"Let's dream!"

"impossible!"

Chapter 257 What is true is true, and what is false is false!

Only then did Keisha know that the analysis and verification report by the domestic team was slow because of extra work.

But to verify the new particle that is suspected to be the Higgs?

impossible!

Isn't this a waste of time?

Keisha knows that he is not a top quantum physics expert, but he also knows that it is impossible to detect the Higgs particle in a test experiment, at least in theory.

The owner of the collider is the Nuclear Organization. Major work such as testing new particles needs to be completed by the Nuclear Organization. A single team is only responsible for analyzing part of the data, and it is impossible to rely on part of the data to analyze the particles.

No matter how Kesha thought about it, she found it impossible, and even thought it was a little funny.

A team went to help Zhao Yi do research on the Higgs particle? Do these people still think it was successful?

This is too funny!

In the workshop.

Looking at the image data on the computer, Kibor and Ruan Wenye also felt very incredible. They really couldn't believe that they could actually find the signal of the new particle.

Before inputting data, they had partly accepted the theoretical logic Zhao Yi said, which is to screen out irrelevant data and use possibly relevant data to judge the existence of new particles.

Zhao Yi also described the screening mechanism in detail.

Ruan Wenye didn't listen carefully.

Kibor listened very seriously, but he was a bit older after all. He had been studying physics all his life, and he only had a basic understanding of computer programming, and he didn't really have the patience to study it.

So Kibor still doesn't know much about the screening mechanism designed by Zhao Yi.

Seeing the results on the computer now, Kibor thought about it carefully, and still felt that there was something wrong with the screening mechanism, which is a combination of physics and computers.

Physical theory is the basis of the design, and it is also guided by him, so there must be no problem.

Not so good about computers.

Whether this screening method is correct or incorrect can only be understood clearly if it is fully understood.

In the end, Kibor sighed for a long time. He couldn't find the problems in the research process, so he could only wait for others to judge.

He didn't know whether he should be disappointed or happy.

I am happy to witness and participate in a research that may discover new particles; I am disappointed that he did not see the failure that he wanted to see, and even if he failed, the failure process is amazing, at least in terms of the judgment mechanism, You can dig deeper to study it.

The combination of physics and computers really has great research potential.

"Well, when you finish writing the report, I'll help you recommend it to others."

Kibor said.

"Thank you!"

Zhao Yi also felt a little excited, he got the desired result.

"Don't be too happy too early." Kibor became very serious, "Your research method deviates from the traditional way of proving new particles, so you can't measure it by the standard of discovering new particles. Whether the final result will be recognized or not?" It's hard to accept."

"Yes!"

Kibor's words were approved by Ruan Wenye.

Ruan Wenye also helped Zhao Yi popularize the international standards for discovering new particles.

In terms of discovering new particles at the micro level, there is a set of universal standards in the world, that is, to make a possibility judgment on the final result and process. When the probability is greater than a certain value, it can be confirmed that a new particle has been discovered.

The normal standard for measuring the discovery of new particles is called 'International Gold 5σ'.

σ is a measure of possibility, which can be understood as probability. For example, if σ is regarded as 19 percent, 5σ is 95 percent. Only when the probability analysis is greater than 5σ can it be determined that a new particle has been discovered, otherwise there is a probability because of other influences.

Particles are microscopic things that are invisible to the naked eye and are greatly affected by the environment.

In the particle collision experiment, the noise that affects the data most is the noise. Maybe a small noise can cause deviations in the results, because the way to test new examples is to analyze the final products, that is, photons, leptons, etc., in order to go Infer the particles they represent, and tiny particles like photons and leptons are affected by noise, resulting in spurious fluctuations.

If the deviation value is greater than the possibility of false fluctuations, it will be determined that new particles have really been discovered, otherwise there will be great uncertainty.

Zhao Yi used program screening to eliminate a large part of the data, and also bypassed the international measurement method for the discovery of new particles. The final results cannot be measured by international standards. Whether the final research results will be accepted is very uncertain. Hard to say.

The other is that the data analysis he did was not complete.

Zhao Yi only used the data of area D from the team's last experiment, as well as the work task data this time, and the data used only accounted for less than one-sixth of the total data.

There is no alternative.

If they want all the data, the domestic team has no choice. They need to apply to the nuclear organization in the form of a report. If the application says to find new particles, there will definitely be personnel from the core organization involved, but it is more likely The result is that it will not be approved.

When the research results came out, even Kibor and Ruan Wenye still couldn't accept them, let alone other people before the research.

In short, the current data graph seems to indicate success, but whether it is really successful needs to be widely recognized by the physics community.

This is like an ordinary proof paper. After it is written, it does not necessarily mean success. It needs to be published and approved to determine the results of the paper.

……

Before leaving, Kibor promised to recommend Zhao Yi's research results to other physics experts. Only with the support of the physics experts can the Nuclear Organization agree to use all the data.

In addition, with the support of the big physicist, the conference center can agree to announce the news and let Zhao Yi make the report alone.

Kibor's weight is not enough. He is indeed a bigwig in quantum physics and a member of the Nuclear Council, but his role is mainly to supervise and balance. The symbolic significance is greater than the actual significance, rather than formally participating in the work.

In addition, Kibor has not won a Nobel Prize.

In the nuclear organization, only those who have won the Nobel Prize in Physics can be counted as truly influential top people.

……

Zhao Yi quickly wrote the thesis, printed it out and handed it to Kibor. When Kibor was out walking his dog, he met an acquaintance and gave him the thesis.

That's Sheldon Glashow.

Sheldon Glashow is also an old man in his 60s, but he looks much younger than Kibor. He has in-depth research on electroweak theory, GIM mechanism, and grand unified theory. With the introduction of short-range Neutral currents, for generalizing the electroweak theory proposed by Schwinger, who shared the 1979 Nobel Prize in Physics with Steven Weinberg and Abdul Salam.

The winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics 20 years ago is still very influential. Glashow is one of the top people involved in research work in the Nuclear Organization. The students he brought out all play core roles in each team.

Such a top figure in physics is not a person who is easy to get in touch with. Anyone who knows Glashow knows that his views on academics are very extreme, which can be described as 'clear and clear'.

'Academic inclusion' does not exist in him.

For example, superstring theory.

Glashow is a skeptic of superstring theory because it cannot provide experimentally testable predictions. He once tried to prevent superstring theorists from entering the Harvard physics department, but Harvard University still accepted superstring theory.

After Harvard University made the decision, Glashaw directly chose to resign and was interviewed 10 minutes later. He said, "Superstring is a discipline that has nothing to do with powerlessness. You can call it' Tumor'."

This incident shows Glashow's attitude towards academics.

As long as Glashow believes that something does not exist or is wrong, he will always insist that it is wrong, and unless he can directly prove that it is 100% correct, he will stick to it to the end.

Of course.

In fact, most successful scientists have similar personalities, otherwise it would be really difficult to succeed, but Glashow is more extreme.

Now Glashow's extreme side is on display again.

Glashow is very appreciative of Kibor. Kibor has not won the Nobel Prize in Physics, but the Nobel Prize in Physics does not fully represent the ability. Most Nobel Prize winners in Physics have more It's just luck.

Kibor just lacks some luck and is no worse than him in ability.

But Kibor's recommendation did not affect his opinion of the paper. When he saw that the title of the paper was the analysis of the discovery of new particles, he immediately turned his mouth in disdain.

A paper about the discovery of new particles?

What a joke!

If the title of the discovery of new particles is acceptable, the paper uses a screening mechanism to remove most of the particles, so that the conclusion of the discovery of new particles can be drawn, which makes Glashow immediately scoff. The main content of the paper is unacceptable to him. Based on the principle of particle collision, the subject is indeed a computer algorithm.

Is this using computer algorithms to find new particles?
