Scholar's Advanced Technological System Chapter 1147 – The Most Expensive Firework Show

Chapter 1147 The Most Expensive Firework Show

Lunar scientific research base.

Physics research area.

Dr. Torrick was sitting in the Lunar Hadron Collider control room. He began to chat with Yan Xinju to pass time.

“You Chinese people are more stubborn than I had imagined.”

Yan Xinju stared at the American scholar and asked, “Why do you say that?”

Torrick said, “Almost half of the physics community thinks that the characteristic peak of 750 GeV is just God playing a prank on us. But Professor Lu still firmly believes that there must be something there… Even though CERN has done more than enough experiments to prove that it was indeed an unusual quantum fluctuation.”

“I’m afraid that’s not correct.”

‘Why?”

“It’s not stubbornness, it’s more like an obsession with the truth. Out of all of the people I know, he is probably the person that sought after the truth the most,” Yan Xinjue continued with a smile. “Also, even though half of the physics community does not believe in this research project, the other half does believe in it, right?”

Dr. Torrick was a little shocked.

“Wait a second… You know him?”

“Of course, we went to the same school.”

Yan Xinju was too embarrassed to say that he only got this position because of his connection with Lu Zhou…

However, he had no reason to worry.

Because Dr. Torrick did not care about this at all. Instead, Dr. Torrick asked about something unrelated.

“Can you tell me something about him? After I read Professor Hardy’s memoir, I’ve been very interested in his story. Unfortunately, the memoir only contains his stories at Princeton.”

Yan Xinju was confused, and he said, “Memoir? What memoir?”

“It was written by a student Lu Zhou taught at Princeton. The author is now a mathematics professor at the University of Sao Paulo, and he’s quite a well-known mathematician.”

Seeing how excited Dr. Torrick was, Yan Xinju looked at his watch and spoke.

“Let’s discuss this in an hour…

“The experiment is going to start in 15 minutes.”

…

Precisely speaking, the experiment was going to begin in 14 minutes and 21 seconds.

At the ILHCRC headquarters in Shanghai.

Everyone in the ground command center sat in front of a huge control screen. They were all nervously waiting for the experiment.

Some people joked that the cost of each ILHCRC experiment was more expensive than testing an intercontinental ballistic missile. This claim was actually somewhat accurate.

Frank Wilczek walked into the control room with a stack of freshly printed papers in his hand. He walked straight to Lu Zhou and spoke in a quiet voice.

“The collision energy is 1250 TeV? Aren’t you looking for a 750 GeV characteristic peak? Why are you setting the energy parameter so high?”

Lu Zhou had his hands behind his back. He looked at the busy control room and said, “Actually, it’s 1250 TeV, 1260 TeV, and 1300 TeV.”

Frank Wilczek: “…”

Wow…

Rich people are another species.

By comparison, the largest CERN collider proton collision experiment had an energy of less than 30 TeV.

Frank Wilczek couldn’t help but sigh as he spoke.

“This is going to be the most expensive firework show in history.”

“Of course!” Lu Zhou smiled and said, “After all, it’s going to illuminate humanity forever.”

The preparations for the experiment were almost finished.

Luo Wenxuan walked over from the corner and took a deep breath. He looked at Lu Zhou and spoke in a serious manner.

“All of the units are ready, we can begin the experiment at any time.”

Lu Zhou nodded and looked at his watch.

There was another 1 minute and 30 seconds left until the scheduled time.

He looked up and spoke.

“Then let’s turn on our machines.

“Charge the superconducting magnet!”

Luo Wenxuan nodded and said, “Roger that!”

…

The experiment ready signal traveled 360,000 kilometers through space, which was received by the lunar surface scientific research base.

A huge amount of energy began to travel from the energy storage facility, entering the superconducting ring and forming a terrifyingly powerful magnetic field.

Even the surrounding cosmic rays were distorted due to this magnetic field.

Yan Xinju, who was standing in the control room of the lunar surface scientific research base, immediately pressed a button in front of him.

It was like he had just pulled the trigger. Two tiny protons instantly shot out from the collider firing guns, and under the force of the magnetic field, they struck each other and broke apart.

There were no sparks or explosions.

However, the energy waves detected by the collider were equally as dazzling.

Under 1250 TeV of energy, the two protons were instantly crushed. They were torn apart in the microscopic world. Invisible to the naked eye, they decomposed into elementary particles smaller than atoms.

A flash of excitement crossed Lu Zhou’s eyes. He stared at the energy spectrum image in front of him.

He could stare at this image all day.

The first round of collision was over!

The superconducting magnets were still in an energized state. The staff members at the lunar surface scientific research base quickly adjusted the experimental parameters and began the second round of collision experiments!

This was the most important round.

This would directly determine whether the mass-energy loss conjecture in Lu Zhou’s paper actually existed!

Lu Zhou held his breath.

The two protons collided together again, creating brilliant “sparks” on the energy detector.

Witten looked at the data on the screen. He spoke in disbelief.

“I can’t believe, your guess was correct…”

Frank Wilczek was also stunned.

Although his mathematical ability was not as good as that of Witten, he could still see an unusual pattern in the data. However, he couldn’t describe what was unusual about the data.

This was just his intuition…

What happened next totally subverted his understanding of the particle physics world.

“Jesus Christ…”

This was the only thing he could say to describe the shock in his heart.

Lu Zhou stood there with his fists clenched.

This is not enough!

Although the second round of experiments was enough to explain some of his conjectures, it was not enough to explain all of his guesses in his paper.

He was waiting for the third round of experiments to begin.

He just needed the third round of experiment data to meet his expectations!

Then, he could prove that his conjectures were correct!

The third round of experiments finally began…

The two protons collided.

The brilliant sparks appeared on the screen again.

Lu Zhou looked at the screen as his pupils shrank.

His eyes were filled with excitement.

The third round of experiments was a success!

“Finally…

“I found you…”

The sounds of the cheers and applause resonated in his ears.

The ghost behind the quantum fluctuations finally showed itself to the world.

Even though Lu Zhou could only see the raw data…

But he was a level-10 mathematics scholar, did he really need to do any data analysis?

For him, he just had to translate the data into something other people could understand…
