In fact, the verification this time is so easy, mainly because Ning Zi's paper has already marked the possible left range.Although in the universe, those coordinates may not be so precise, and the error may reach several light years, but compared with the distance of 2.6 light years, these errors are tolerable.

So borrowing Fugaku, which can be said to be one of the fastest supercomputers in the world, and his colleagues quickly produced results.

This time, the data he was looking for was more targeted, the search scope was further narrowed, and the amount of data was not very large, so the results should be available faster.

"Lenny, the data has been sent to you."

"Received, wait, yes, the calculation result just now is all right?"

"I'm still researching, and it seems that there is no problem now."

"Should I call them? I think maybe they won't be too happy tomorrow if I don't tell them."

"Wait a minute, wait until I'm sure. By the way, where are you now?"

"Hawaii."

"What time is it in your place?"

"At [-]:[-] in the morning, I fell asleep. I got up at [-] o'clock and planned to go to the bathroom to continue sleeping. Who knew that I glanced at the data and immediately started to verify when I found something. An hour passed without knowing it. Tomorrow I'm sure I won't be able to enjoy the warm sun on the beach."

"Now you still care about the warm sunshine on the beach? Isn't the scorching light from the galactic sun enough to ignite your passion?"

"If that paper had been my work, my passion would have exploded right now. Even if it was you, I would be happy for you, but that paper was written by someone else. The impetus for me to verify the results comes from what you say That said, we were probably the first to prove him wrong. But what we're doing now is proving him right again.

To be honest, my mood is more complicated now than when I first met her traditional and extremely conservative father at my girlfriend's house. "

These words made Lucius Rudy at a loss for what to say.

The excitement brought about by the news just now was hit by these words, and he seemed to have forgotten his original intention at this time.

"But this discovery could change our understanding of the Milky Way, and even our understanding of the universe."

"That's the only reason I'm willing to give up a beautiful beach and sit in front of a computer. Damn, how can there be stars there? The central region of the galactic radio source is less than 10 AU, but there are millions of them there The mass of a sun, that is a super giant black hole, why is the star not swallowed?"

"I don't know, maybe we should analyze more data...or we can ask Ning from Huaxia...Okay, I think I can call them. After comparing with the original data, I think your analysis result is correct. , there are indeed stars there. If his deduction is correct, then there should be stars in other areas, but our analysis speed cannot compare with yours."

"Okay, I understand what you mean, I will let everyone summarize the data to me. You are in charge of making calls, and I am in charge of continuing to work."

"it is good!"

……

After Lucius Rudy made dozens of phone calls, the chat group of astronomers became lively again.

The data analyzed by the supercomputer was sent to everyone online.

After a period of silence, the group soon became lively again.

"So he's right? He's actually right? He deduced the possibility of stellar movement in the center of the galaxy through a few formulas that he didn't know the meaning of? The result has been proved by us?"

"God, God must be crazy. Now I'm curious how those stars are formed? We all know that any matter, including stars, will disappear without a trace once it falls into the gravitational field of a black hole."

"So is there a possibility that the disk-like gaseous matter surrounding the black hole at a certain distance generated by the core disturbance may evolve into a star?"

"But that requires generating a high-temperature, high-pressure core, and if these data comparisons are correct, the stars there are massive and extremely bright."

"Well, the structure of the universe is more complicated. I knew that everything is too simple. The mass there is 6.84 X10 to the 36th power, which is 360 million times the mass of the sun."

"Tomorrow the whole world will go crazy over this discovery."

"Haha, Lucius, you are wrong. Few people will pay attention to this. Of course, many people in the physics world probably don't know why."

"Wait, speaking of this, do you think it is possible for Ning's discovery to win the Nobel Prize next year?"

A simple question made the group chat, which had been so lively just now, suddenly fell silent again.

After a long while, someone replied: "Probably not? After all, the Nobel Prize was awarded to the researcher of gravitational waves just last year. It cannot be given to the researcher of cosmology next year. Those who do quantum physics will go crazy. And Ning Zi is not a physicist, is she?"

"However, through Ning Zi's thesis, we discovered that there are dense stellar celestial bodies in the galactic center, which overturned at least one-third of our understanding of the galactic center and related theories. To be honest, this is indeed a Nobel Prize-winning achievement. If If he can complete the theory next year, it will not be a big problem to win the Nobel Prize again."

"He is only 22 years old, and he has already won the Fields Medal in Mathematics and the Turing Award, so he wants to set a new record for the Nobel Prize?"

"Well, so what can I do?"

"I still think it should be awarded to quantum mechanics next year."

"Ha ha……"

"Okay, the verification is complete, everyone, the results have been sent to your mailbox. Facts speak louder than words. No matter how hard you find it, the Chinese people are right. Of course, there may be a small mistake, because the stars there are far more powerful than theirs. There are many inferences in the paper. Lucius, you are an expert in black holes, and I have a hunch that your hair will fall out very quickly for a long time to come."

"No, maybe we can cooperate with Ning Zi, I am suddenly very interested in his paper. If possible, maybe we should let him fill in the missing parts of the paper as soon as possible."

"Lucius, you should be able to do it, maybe you can get the editor of the science magazine to contact Ning Zi."

"Maybe, but I can't be sure. I've heard he's not very talkative, but I'll try, you guys."

……

"Clang clang clang..."

When Yarel Riley was awakened by the phone ringing, he subconsciously glanced out the window.

It's still dark...

Damn, that's rude, don't you know it's Christmas break?

It is indeed too much to disturb people's lucid dreams at this time.

"Who is it?" the woman beside him asked.

"Let me see..." After finishing speaking, Yarel Riley turned over and got up, glanced at the caller number, then he was stunned for a moment, then quickly woke up, put on his pajamas, and answered casually : "A scientist friend." He walked out of the bedroom.

He really didn't expect the call to be from Lucius Rudy. He looked at the time, and it was 5:37 in the morning.

It's really not easy to hang up the phone call of this scientist, after all, he just looked for someone not long ago.

And calling at this time always gave him a very weird feeling.

Is it...

Walking out of the bedroom, he picked up the phone and quickly verified his guess.

"Although it is difficult to speak, I still have to take back what I said before. Ning Zi is right. After verification, there are indeed stars in the area pointed out in his thesis, and there are dozens of stars. Judging from the available information, These stars may be 30 to 50 times larger than our sun, and their brightness may be a hundred times that of the sun. Their speed is very fast, probably because they are afraid of being eaten by black holes.

To paraphrase my brother who did this with me, the universe is a miracle, and everything we think we know may be wrong.I have to admit that he is right, but you should know that his thesis is not that clear, so can you put me in touch with him?We hope to have some academic discussions with Ning Zi. "

Yarel Reilly could hear the urgency in Lucius Rudy's voice.

But for this request, he is actually helpless.

After all, he is actually not familiar with Ning Zi, including the emails sent by the magazine to Ning Zi whose manuscripts have been published, and Ning Zi has not yet replied.

"Okay, I will communicate your request to Ning Zi, but are you sure you have found evidence of stars in that area? Of course, I am not questioning your judgment, but you said before that it may take a while to find evidence."

"Yes, it did take a while, but there are too many coincidences. My application was approved in advance, and a friend just happened to have supercomputing resources. Of course, it will take a while to write these findings into papers. We have to sort out Check the information again, and need the computer to synthesize some pictures, well, about a week, when you have a pleasant Christmas holiday, you may be able to see this article in your mailbox."

"That's great, trust me Lucius, I'll find a way to discuss your idea with Ning Zi. This is another major astronomical discovery in the 21st century, right?"

"Undoubtedly, yes! By the way, I take back my previous sentence again, mathematics is indeed omnipotent."

"Do not say that……"

"Okay, remember your promise. I very much hope to communicate with Ning as soon as possible. It can be through email, phone, video, etc. You can tell him, and I can arrange it according to his time."

"Ok!"

"Then please, hang up."

Listening to the busy tone, Yarel Reilly knew that this Christmas, another field of science would not be peaceful.

……

Huaxia, Yanbei University, Fan Zhenhua was looking up documents in the office of the Mathematics Research Center, when there was a knock on the door of the office, and before he could answer, someone pushed the door and walked in.

"Academician Chen? What gust of wind brought you here?"

Fan Zhenhua looked at the person unexpectedly. This was Chen Wenze, the head of the Department of Astronomy at Yanbei University.

"Which gust of wind can there be? Of course it was Ning Feng who brought me here. Are you busy? If not, take me to the University of Physical Education and introduce me. I want to meet Ning Zi."

"No... What are you going to see Ning Zi for? Did he offend you again?" Fan Zhenhua felt nervous for a while.

After all, Ning Zi has a criminal record in offending people. He can always do some messy things, and offend people inexplicably, which makes people headache.

And at this time, Fan Zhenhua really didn't want Ning Zi to offend these bosses again, after all, his plan was to push Ning Zi up next year.

However, Chen Wenze's answer caught him off guard.

"You don't know that paper he published in Science?"

"He published another paper on "Science"? When?" Fan Zhenhua was also stunned.

He really didn't know about it.

"The day before yesterday, it was updated on the official website of Science, and he was given a Christmas special edition. Simply put, he made some predictions through mathematics, subversive predictions, and I got news that some colleagues have confirmed his predictions are That's right. I studied his thesis again, and I didn't quite understand some parts, so I wanted to ask him in person.

By the way, it's not just me. Two professors from the Astrophysics Research Center of the school are on their way here. They entrusted me to come to you first, and then they made an appointment to go to the University Round together. "

Fan Zhenhua blinked his eyes, a little confused...

the day before yesterday?

Didn't Ning Zi just finish defending his doctoral dissertation the day before yesterday?

He ran to science and published a paper?Or about astrophysics?

"Well, Academician Chen, did you make a mistake? Haven't you heard of Ning Zi's astronomy and research?"

"Didn't I say that? His thesis is a prediction made through mathematical derivation, so it makes people feel very strange, oh, stop talking nonsense, let's go, I'll explain it to you on the way, okay?"

"Yes, I'll go with you, but I don't guarantee that he will give me face as an old man."

"Okay, I don't believe that young man really didn't recognize his relatives, so he left, left."

Just like that, Fan Zhenhua was dragged out of the door in a daze.

……

Almost at the same time, Chen Lili, who was writing a thesis in his office, also rang.

It happened to be Li Zhongshu, director of the Department of Astronomy at Huaqing University, who was calling.

The predecessor of the Department of Astronomy at Huaqing University was the Department of Astrophysics in the School of Physics. After Yanbei University spun off the Department of Astronomy, Huaqing did the same and hired an academician of the Academy of Sciences as the head of the department.

For associate professor Chen Lili, it was inevitable that he was more surprised than Fan Zhenhua when he received the call.

After all, he had almost no interaction with this Academician Li. After all, everyone's meetings were held at different levels.

"Professor Chen, I'm Li Zhongshu."

"Oh, Academician Li, hello, hello."

"Hey, um, didn't bother you?"

"No, no, what's the matter with you?"

"That's good. I really want to ask you for help. You know, Ning Zi's relationship with Huaqing is not very good, so I would like to ask you to help me to see if I can invite Ning Zi to come to our Department of Astronomy to give a lecture. Tell me about his latest thesis. We don’t care about the grievances of the school, but simply want to invite him to give a related seminar, what do you think?"

"what?"

Chapter 179 March's Proposal

Real scientists are probably the purest group of people in the world. The word "true" is very important. It means maintaining a strong curiosity about everything around you and always having a strong thirst for knowledge.In order to satisfy their curiosity and thirst for knowledge, they can do far more than ordinary people can imagine.

It is this kind of spirit to hear that Taoism can be dead in the evening.

If you can find out the truth of the world, it doesn't matter whether you live or how long you live.

Fang Xu once said the same thing, if 20 years less life can be exchanged for solving a worldwide problem that he is interested in, he will not hesitate.

Astronomers are actually the same, even more curious.

The universe is so big that those who study it can easily feel hopeless.

The solar system in which humans live alone has a diameter of about 300 billion kilometers. At the current maximum speed of human aircraft, it will take tens of thousands of years to fly out of the solar system.The lifespan of a planet is measured in hundreds of millions of years. If you don't have a strong heart, just thinking about it will make you feel hopeless.

In comparison, the lifespan of human beings is indeed too short.

Therefore, observing, speculating, and putting forward various conjectures in a limited life to make plausible explanations for the various possibilities of the universe have become the most meaningful things in an astronomer's life.

The amazing thing about what Ning Zi did this time is that he speculated a possible situation in the universe through theory, and most importantly, his deduction was correct.

This can be understood as Newton proposed the three laws of motion, allowing people not only to understand the interaction of forces, but also to calculate the mass, speed and force of an object.This is a milestone progress.

So it's not surprising that Ning Zi suddenly became busy.
