From all-round academic master to chief scientist

"So, this is the strong interaction?"

Lin Xiao sighed sincerely.

Both for what he understood now and for what he had just seen.

For physicists, if they want to study particle physics, they can only determine the properties of these particles through collisions between particles, and then use the analysis of momentum and energy. Finally, they can use this indirect method to determine the properties of these particles.

Obviously, for these physicists, being able to directly observe these microscopic scenes is simply what every physicist dreams of.

Because no matter how accurate the indirect calculation is, it is far less straightforward and realistic than direct observation, and it is also more accurate.

And for them, if they can actually observe the scene in the crowd, it will be a huge help for them to continue to study physics.

Just like now, Lin Xiao directly observed the phenomenon of strong interaction through this time, which was of great help to him in understanding this thing.

Like now.

At this time, he had completely understood the process, mode of action, and essential characteristics of the strong interaction.

"So, we cannot try to unify these two forces from the perspective of electromagnetic interaction force alone, but we should unify these two forces from the perspective of electroweak interaction force."

Lin Xiao's eyes flickered, as if illuminated by truth.

At this time, his mind was absorbing the last bits of knowledge, and until finally, he finally stopped his flickering eyes, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.

"It's a pity that the process of exchanging the weak interaction force was not recorded."

Of course, although I feel a little sorry to say this, the rest of the work can be done through mathematical derivation.

"In that case, let's not talk nonsense."

Putting the truth recorder away, Lin Xiao smiled slightly.

Next, it’s time to complete the final step—unify the strong interaction and the electroweak interaction!

I skillfully took out the scratch paper and pen, and sorted out all the relevant knowledge in my mind.

Then, he began to write the first paragraph on the scratch paper.

"According to quantum chromodynamics, the symbol Gaμv is used to represent the gauge-invariant gluon field strength tensor to express:..."

【Gaμv=μAav-μ……】

The feeling of blockage lingering in the brain without any ideas before has now transformed into the pleasure of being instantly unblocked.

Thinking was like a wild horse running wildly in this area that was originally untouchable by mortals, and at this moment, Lin Xiao once again felt the sour feeling of being close to the truth.

Just like that, time passed quickly.

…

More than half a month has passed.

At the headquarters of the China High Energy Physics Research Organization, an important meeting was being held at this time.

"Our beloved Chairman Lin, we haven't seen him for a long time. Chairman, do you know where the Chairman has gone? Otherwise, how should we decide on our next scientific plan?"

The Vice Chairman of the Academic Committee, Tejinder Vidi spoke.

Tejinder Vidi is an important scientist at CERN. He and others once proposed the concept of compact meson solenoid CMS, and this compact meson solenoid is one of the two large detectors of the LHC. Together with another large detector, ATLAS, the existence of the Higgs boson was detected, so this thing is still quite heavyweight in the physics community.

Tejinder Vidi, the concept proposer and founder, is naturally a big shot in this area. He also gave many suggestions during the construction of CEPC.

It is precisely because of these contributions that he became the vice chairman of the Academic Committee, and of course, one of them.

There are many vice-chairmen, and they are basically considered honorary positions. However, their contributions still need to be valued.

But this time, Tejinder Vidi was dissatisfied with Lin Xiao, who had not shown up for a long time.

Normally, it wouldn't matter if Lin Xiao showed up or not, but now CEPC has just been built not long ago, and the first run was a complete success, so everyone is very excited about the performance of CEPC in the future. expect.

After the first operation, after nearly two months of maintenance and inspection, it was determined that there were no problems with the functions of each part, so now it is time to continue discussing the next scientific plan.

Every second of downtime for such a good thing is a loss for physics researchers like them.

It's a pity that without Lin Xiao, the chairman, and without him making the decision, it would be impossible for others to make independent decisions and go beyond Lin Xiao to decide this matter.

After all, no matter what, this is still in China, on someone else's territory, and CEPC was built with someone else's money.

Of course, in the face of the questions raised by the vice chairman, Wang Yi, as the chairman of the research organization, still needs to respond.

He smiled apologetically: "Sorry, Mr. Vidi, during this period, we have indeed been in contact with Chairman Lin Xiao, but as far as we know, the current Chairman Lin Xiao may be carrying out a very important project." research, so during this period of time, we may not be able to contact him yet.”

"Of course, please don't worry. We have been contacting Chairman Lin. Once he has news, we will notify you as soon as possible."

After hearing Wang Yi's explanation, everyone present couldn't help but become curious.

Lin Xiao is conducting a very important research?

What research is that?

Is it actually more important than CEPC?

In the eyes of these people, for now, nothing in academia is more important than the "big toy" of CEPC.

After all, for these high-energy physicists, their academic careers are almost always tied to these particle colliders. As long as the particle collider is bigger and stronger, they will be happier.

As a result, Lin Xiao was different from them now. He didn't care about this stuff at all, and ended up studying his own stuff, which made them all very puzzled.

"Then...Chairman, do you know what our Chairman Lin is studying?"

Tejinder Vidi asked again.

"Uh, well... I don't know."

Wang Yi smiled bitterly and said.

How did he know what Lin Xiao was studying? He just came and went without a trace.

Half a month ago, after Lin Xiao attended the press conference on confirming the existence of gravitons, he could no longer contact anyone.

Regarding this, Wang Yi almost thought that Lin Xiao had been kidnapped from the beginning. After all, there are so many foreigners here at CEPC, maybe something bad happened?

After all, Lin Xiao had encountered similar dangers before.

Fortunately, after he contacted a circle of people who were familiar with Lin Xiao, he learned that Lin Xiao was actually fine and was just in seclusion.

When Lin Xiao went into retreat, it was usually because he was studying something very important, and at this time, he usually couldn't contact anyone.

So Wang Yi had no choice but to wait.

As for Wang Yi's answer, everyone present was helpless.

If Lin Xiao wasn't so powerful, they would all be scolding him now.

But just when they thought the meeting was about to end, a person suddenly walked over from outside. It was one of Wang Yi's assistants.

After the assistant said a few words to Wang Yi, Wang Yi's eyes lit up. Then he immediately turned to look at the people present and said, "Everyone, our Chairman Lin Xiao just called. He is now Coming towards us!"

"In addition, he also said..." When he said this, a trace of strangeness flashed across Wang Yi's face, "He will bring you a surprise."

"surprise?"

Everyone present also showed doubtful expressions, and then looked at each other.

In this situation, what other surprises can Lin Xiao bring to them?

At this moment, they just want a surprise, that is, their big toy will start to operate tomorrow.

Of course, no matter what, since Lin Xiao said he wanted to give them a surprise, they would listen later to find out what the surprise was!

…

In this way, these people waited patiently until more than ten minutes later, there was finally a knock on the door of the conference room, and then Lin Xiao walked in.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

Seeing so many people inside, Lin Xiao said apologetically.

After seeing Lin Xiao, the people present did not complain. No matter what, none of the physicists present did not admire Lin Xiao's results.

"Okay, Chairman Lin, why don't you tell us what kind of surprise you have brought us."

said the previous Tejinder Vidi.

Lin Xiao smiled: "Of course that's no problem."

Then he looked around and said, "I need to use the blackboard now."

Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned, why are you using a blackboard?

Is Lin Xiao going to show off his math skills again?

Some people present who had witnessed Lin Xiao's mathematical derivation process immediately put on masks of pain. They really didn't want to accept such torture anymore.

But no matter what, the staff on site quickly helped Lin Xiao push the blackboard.

Then, Lin Xiao started writing on the blackboard.

[Lg=-1/4W^(aμv)W^a-1/4B^μ……]

Looking at these gestures, those who put on the mask of pain felt even more miserable.

Sure enough, Lin Xiao started.

However, what surprised these people was that Lin Xiao did not write any long essay, but only two systems of equations.

After writing these two equations, he turned his head with a smile and said to everyone present: "This is the surprise I want to give everyone."

"And this is the unity of the three basic forces!"
