Rebirth of science and technology academic master

Chapter 250: Happiness and Troubles

With Qin Yuanqing returning to school, life is back on track. After one semester, Qin Yuanqing has turned his energy to Yang Mills' theoretical subject as a graduate student.

After nearly three months, Qin Yuanqing once again launched an attack on Yang Mills' theory. Previously, he studied how to express the existence of mass gaps in mathematical language. In fact, evidence for the 'mass gap' of the strong interaction has been obtained in theoretical physics experiments and verified by computer simulations.

Then finding the evidence in experiments is completely different from how to explain it from a mathematical theory perspective.

This is also the thinking of physics and mathematics. Physics analyzes and summarizes experimental data, but it cannot ensure that other situations exist. Mathematics, on the other hand, determines it based on truth, ensuring that all situations are within the formula, the formula is applicable, and the corresponding results can be obtained as long as the formula is followed.

It is also true that the axioms and theorems of physics are undoubtedly expressed in mathematical ways and then recognized.

The difficulty of Yang Mills's theory is largely due to the fact that it is a complex physical problem for mathematicians. For most physicists, this is another mathematical puzzle.

In other words, if you want to solve this problem, you must be the world's top mathematician and also the world's top physicist. Only then can you possibly solve the Yang Mills theory.

And there is no doubt that in the past five hundred years, there have only been Newton, Descartes and Lagrange as such figures.

Of course, mathematicians and physicists can also collaborate, but since they are not the same people, it is extremely difficult to cooperate without any differences.

After all, mathematicians and physicists are, first of all, individuals. They have their own thoughts and emotions, their own experiences and rules. If they want to discover new mathematics and new physics at the same time, the difficulty is really extraordinary. The land is huge.

If Mr. Yang was also proficient in mathematics, he might have been able to solve it. Unfortunately, although Mr. Yang is the top physicist, his mathematical ability can only be said to be good, and he is definitely not a top mathematician.

If Qin Yuanqing hadn't reached level 14 in mathematics and physics, especially since mathematics was about to reach level 15, Qin Yuanqing would not have dared to attack Yang Mills.

Of course, a very important reason why Qin Yuanqing wanted to conquer Yang Mills was that China lacked a Nobel Prize in Physics. The whole country hoped that a Chinese person could win the Nobel Prize in Physics, Chemistry or Physiology. Although someone in China won the Nobel Prize in Literature before, unfortunately many people didn't value it very much, so there was a lot of criticism.

Qin Yuanqing hoped to conquer Yang Mills' theory and bring China a Nobel Prize in Physics, no, it should be said two!

Once the Yang Mills theory is proven, the prover will inevitably win a Nobel Prize in Physics and a Fields Medal, and the proposer will also win a Nobel Prize in Physics. The proposer of the Yang Mills theory is Yang Laohe Mills, Mills has passed away, there is no hope, but Mr. Yang is still healthy, and even spoke clearly and expressed clearly on his 100th birthday. With Mr. Yang's body and bones, it would be normal for him to live another ten years.

Just the core problem encountered now is to use mathematical methods to prove the existence of the solution to the Yang-Mills equations or to find the general solution, as well as to prove the mass gap.

Using mathematical methods to prove the existence of solutions to the Yang-Mills equations or to find the general solution may not be of much use to physicists. After all, they have already obtained the conclusions they want through high-energy experiments and computer simulations. , however, for mathematicians, the significance of being able to find a general solution to this system of equations is extraordinary.

Because only the general solution to the system of equations makes the others meaningful. If there is no general solution, it can be explained as a coincidence.

Otherwise, Yang Mills' theory would still be a question mark.

As for the proof of the mass gap, this step is also very critical, because this proof will give birth to new mathematical methods, and it also means clarifying those natural rules that physicists have not fully understood, and even proposing some further ones on this basis. theory.

For example, unify the strong interaction and electromagnetic interaction.

It can be said that achieving this step also means that the physics community will take a big step towards a grand unified theory.

In the world of mathematics, there is a saying about the unification of mathematics. Many ambitious mathematicians want to unify mathematics and establish a great mathematical empire. If this great mathematical empire can be established, then the history of mathematics will exceed the history of mathematics. Any great mathematician in the world will become the first person in mathematics in history.

Similarly, there have always been ambitious physicists in the world of physics who want to unify physics, and whoever can complete the grand unified theory of physics will be the emperor of the physics empire, and will shine brighter than any other in history. A physicist, not even Newton or Einstein can compare with him.

These two steps were not easy to come by, and Qin Yuanqing himself became sad.

Fortunately, there are spices in life. Every day he goes back to tease his daughter and listen to his daughter calling "Daddy". The sound of her voice makes all Qin Yuanqing's worries at work disappear.

Qin Yuanqing has become a father, and finally understands why some parents would say that a person without children will always be a child, not an adult. I also understand why it is said that during the years when you were with your child when he was a child, the touch and happiness your child brought you was enough for you to devote your life to him without any regrets.

The troubles at work and the happiness in life put Qin Yuanqing in a wonderful state, and he also struggled towards the top of the mountain. Sometimes he would gain something, which would make Qin Yuanqing feel good and even hum a song.

The people in the institute, seeing Qin Yuanqing's abnormal state, were very cautious, not daring to make mistakes or make Qin Yuanqing angry. However, sometimes when Qin Yuanqing lectured, it was like reading a book from heaven, making people unable to understand, and sometimes... He would lose his temper and scold people, making everyone nervous. He would reflect on himself whether he had not done enough in active learning during this period.

Time came so unknowingly on January 13, 2014. One-third of the people from the Automotive Research Institute and the Aerospace Engine Research Institute participated in the Science and Technology Award Conference. This time, the top award winners were Mr. Cheng and One is Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Cheng was born in 1918 and is now 95 years old. He graduated from the Department of Physics of Zhejiang University in 1941. He studied in Britain in 1946 and received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Edinburgh in 1948. He served as a researcher at the Royal Institute of Chemical Industry in Britain. Later, after the founding of the Republic, Mr. Cheng resolutely gave up his high salary abroad and returned to the motherland to participate in the construction of the motherland. In 1999, he won the "Two Bombs and One Satellite" Meritorious Service Medal. He can be said to be the founder and leader of my country's nuclear test science and technology!

Zhang Laosheng was born in 1928 at the age of 86. He graduated from the Department of Chemical Engineering of Central University in 1947. He studied in the United States in 1948 and received a master's degree from the University of Michigan in 1950. After the founding of the Republic, he resolutely chose to return to China. His lifelong contributions were remarkable and he was praised He is the founder of high-energy chemical lasers and one of the founders of molecular reaction dynamics in my country.

It can be said that the two of them won the highest award, which is well deserved, there is no doubt!

Qin Yuanqing once again won the first prize of the National Natural Science and Technology Award for proving Goldbach's conjecture. At the same time, he also won the first prize of the National Natural Science and Technology Award for his discovery of iron-based high-temperature superconductors above 40K and several basic Research on physical properties', in addition to the breakthrough achievements made by the Aero Engine Research Institute in the theory of aero engine mechanics, it also won the third prize of the Natural Science and Technology Award.

Then Qin Yuanqing also won the special prize of the Scientific Progress Award, but it was to commend him for his outstanding contributions to aircraft carrier-related majors. As for the details, he did not say anything. In terms of the Scientific Progress Award, the Aero Engine Research Institute and the Automotive Research Institute have each achieved success.

The media was numb to the fact that Qin Yuanqing won the grand prize again. He had appeared on the awards stage for five consecutive years and won the grand prize for five consecutive years. This happened too frequently.

Qin Yuanqing himself is quite embarrassed. He stands on the stage every year and always looks too young in group photos. He also wants to leave more opportunities to young people, but damn, isn’t there someone younger than him? Come on, I can only take it reluctantly.

To be honest, Qin Yuanqing did not expect that he had stayed at the aircraft carrier engineering research base for more than two months. Although he had made some contributions, it was not the end of the year. He never thought that he would win a grand prize for this. Who knew about the aircraft carrier engineering project? The team was so awesome and they managed to win the special prize in such a short time.

"Comrade Yuanqing, other department leaders have asked me to take credit for you many times. On behalf of the country, I want to thank you for your dedication and effort!" The dean shook hands with Qin Yuanqing and said amiably.

The two are already old acquaintances. It was he who personally reported the car engine to the dean and obtained the dean's strong support, which enabled the car engine to be quickly implemented.

The dean even gave him his personal mobile phone number so that if he needed help with anything, he could call him at any time.

Qin Yuanqing could feel the dean's attention and cultivation to him, and he was very grateful for the dean's consideration.

"Leader, I am also a member of the children of China, so naturally I am willing to give everything I have for the rejuvenation of China!" Qin Yuanqing said sheepishly.

"Comrade Yuanqing said it well. If every comrade has the consciousness of Comrade Yuanqing, then our Chinese rejuvenation can be realized as soon as possible!" After listening to Qin Yuanqing's words, the dean appreciated Qin Yuanqing even more.

Today, Qin Yuanqing has become a banner for young people, a banner leading them towards the rejuvenation of China.
