Into Unscientific Chapter 446

  Chapter 446 There is a thunder on the flat ground, Dr. Xiao Xu coughs and coughs, making his debut (Part 1)

   Hear this voice from the audience.

  Academician Pan was taken aback for a moment.

To know.

  Although in theory, anyone at the press conference can interrupt the speech on the stage.

But in fact.

  It is actually not an easy task to make a clear sound in such a large venue that can be heard clearly by other participants.

   At least relying solely on naked voice is impossible.

   That is, the interrupter either has a built-in amplifier like Atsuto Suzuki, or has a microphone.

   And look at the entire conference site.

   Apart from Field Control and Academician Pan, there are and only

  The five top leaders sitting at the front, that is:

  Old Yang,

  Thooft,

  Peter Higgs,

  Polyakov,

as well as

  Edward Witten.

  I saw this moment.

  Edward Witten was standing on the seat, holding a microphone in one hand, and raising the other hand high as a gesture.

  See this scenario.

   Academician Rao Shipan has participated in many academic reports, so he couldn't help being a little dazed.

   Actually, it was not only Academician Pan who was surprised.

  Higgs, Polyakov, and even Elder Yang beside Edward Witten all showed a slightly astonished expression at this time.

  Old Yang still had a daze of 'what are you doing, little brother' on his face.

   There are also bullet screens from major live broadcast platforms.

  Originally, when Academician Pan clicked on the heads of those institutions one by one, the bullet screen would either read 666, or use [jieqi] or the homophonic stalk of Jieqi [beriberi].

   Wait for Academician Pan to finish his question.

  The barrage turned into [Chinese Academy of Sciences Niubi! ] or [Long Live China! 】 Such exaggerated barrage.

   But after Edward Witten made his voice.

  The unified barrage becomes the same question mark:

   After all, during the live broadcast of the experiment just now, the commentators such as Zhang Han and other Academy of Sciences configurations also introduced the situation of these big guys on the scene, and the audience knew them more or less.

  Edward Witten can be regarded as a big man with a relatively friendly attitude towards China. He has participated in many conferences held by domestic universities over the years.

   In addition, he also insisted on using "chinesenewyear" when celebrating the New Year, and was blasted by a bunch of stick nets for this.

  By the way, since the Spring Festival is mentioned, here is one more thing.

   At present, many people think that Chinesenewyear and lunarnewyear are actually just the difference in letters, and they are too sensitive to pay too much attention to Chinesenewyear.

   And what is the truth?

  Please exit the starting point, turn on your mobile phone, and find a social media—Weibo is recommended at this time, and then enter the two keywords of "FIFA football game mission" and "British Museum".

   Then you will find two entries.

  The content of the entry is that they have begun to use Koreanlunarnewyear to celebrate the Spring Festival blatantly, and the British Museum even declared that this is the stick culture.

   That's right, it's today, January 20, 2023, the 29th of the Chinese lunar calendar.

   This is the result of eight years of concerted efforts between Haidiandian and Bangzi.

  Infiltration and encroachment can actually be seen from the meaning of the words. Their progress is long and slow, and their purpose is to paralyze the target bit by bit.

  When many people think, "Should I be so sensitive?" and "The lunar calendar is not wrong", the Spring Festival is already in the shape of a stick.

  There is a standard term in political science for this approach, called rendering advancement, and the next step is to turn it into a cultural history of sticks.

well, let's get back to business.

all in all.

  Edward Witten, you say he likes Huaxia, that's not necessarily true, after all, his eight generations of ancestors don't have a trace of Chinese blood.

   But at least there is no deep hatred between them and Huaxia, at least it is unlikely to run out to tear down the Chinese Academy of Sciences—especially in the current situation that is almost close to the final conclusion.

So

  Why did this top physicist come out and interrupt Academician Pan?

  With this doubt.

  Academician Pan bit his lip cavity hard with his back molars, relying on the pain to bring himself back to his senses and calm down, he said to Wei Teng:

   "Professor Witten, do you have any questions?"

   Since it is not related to the release of results, Academician Pan used English this time.

   After all, Weiteng has a great reputation, so this kind of respect can still be given.

   Well, as long as he doesn't tear things apart.

  Hearing this, Wei Teng's face in the audience also showed a hint of embarrassment, as if he was somewhat embarrassed to interrupt Academician Pan's behavior.

  But soon he straightened his face and asked:

   "Academician Pan, I'm sorry to interrupt your speech at this juncture, but this issue is really important to me"

   "So no matter what the result is, I will publicly issue an apology statement on social media after the meeting."

   "Of course, I don't want to question your results. For this retest of dark matter, I personally express my sincere admiration. This is a textbook-like operation."

  Academician Pan's chest suddenly relaxed.

   Although Witten's remarks did not fully express their intentions, they were more or less an expression of their attitude:

  He really didn't come to mess things up.

   In other words.

  He has a high probability that he will not question the issue of dark matter in terms of the results, that is, the final theory.

  This is barely good news.

   After all, with Wei Teng's status, if he really raises doubts about dark matter, the Academy of Sciences will still have some troubles.

   At the same time exactly at this time.

  Academician Pan also heard Hou Xingyuan's voice:

   "Xiao Pan, try to control the situation and see what Wei Teng is going to say."

   "Our service personnel are already in place, and the broadcast signal can also be switched to the advertising page at any time. The situation cannot be said to be controllable, but it will not cause major troubles."

  Academician Pan tapped twice on his ears calmly, indicating that he already knew the situation, and at the same time said to Wei Teng:

   "Mr. Weiteng, you are serious. We welcome any doubts or inquiries in this press conference. You can rest assured to ask bold questions, and the Academy of Sciences will do its best to answer you."

  Witten heard the words and bowed to Academician Pan, made a very Chinese etiquette, and asked:

   "Mr. Pan, please allow me to ask, is the official name of this dark matter particle called a lone point particle?"

  Academician Pan shook his head decisively this time, and said:

   "No, the Lone Point Particle is just the initial name. Originally, we would announce the official name of the Lone Point Particle in Dean Hou's speech later."

   "But since Mr. Witten is curious, let me tell you its name now. The only title given to it by the Academy of Sciences is"

   "Pangu."

  Witeng raised his brows, and a less-authentic Chinese came out of his mouth:

   "Fat Gu?"

   Academician Pan nodded.

  When the properties of dark matter have not yet been discovered, the name of the lone point particle is relatively arbitrary. After all, it is just a relatively rare special particle.

   But after determining that it doesn't have weak interactions, everything changes.

   This is a particle that is more important than the Higgs particle and comparable to gravitational waves.

  At the same time, according to the dark matter model, there is a high probability that there is more than one kind of dark matter in theory.

   Therefore, it is very important to set a formal name for the lone point particle.

   Then, after many discussions by the Academy of Sciences and even higher-level will, these bigwigs finally decided to put a very awesome name on the solitary point particle:

  Pangu.

   After all, this is the first dark matter discovered in human history, and the research on the field of dark matter also conforms to Pan Gu's "opening up the world" in implication.

   Followed by Chinese legends.

  Pangu collapsed from exhaustion after opening the sky, his limbs became the four poles on the earth, his skin became the vast earth, and his blood became the endless river.

  He is the fulcrum of all things in mythology.

  This statement is also in line with the "support" effect of the lone point particle on fundamental physics.

   Last point

   Naturally, it is the oriental romance unique to Chinese people.

  Although Mr. Ding Zhaozhong discovered the J particle back then, he is still from across the sea until now. Therefore, after the discovery of the J particle in 1976, it is naturally impossible for him to use the Chinese term to name the J particle.

   But this time it was different.

  Lone point particles are particles discovered by the Chinese themselves from beginning to end, and there is no need to look at other people's colors at all, even if they are called cockroach particles, there is no problem.

  Therefore, several bigwigs made a total decision and immediately decided on the name Pangu.

  In the future, as long as it is an article or research that mentions isolated point particles, even if it is a foreign journal, it must use the pinyin description of [PanGu].

  At the same time, for some scientific researchers, especially the new generation of scientific researchers.

   I have heard the word Pangu for a long time, let alone everyone, at least some of them will definitely search for the meaning of Pangu.

  Pangu was found, and the rest of Nuwa, Sanqing... these Chinese mythological characters naturally couldn't escape.

   Guarantee is not complete. Some people search here and there, and they will find the great novels created by Shenji

  When this time span is recorded in ten or twenty years, there are always people who will be attracted and influenced by these stories.

   It's like the Higgs particle.

  The name of this particle is different from the common π meson or electron gluon, so after hearing too much, someone will always search for the name Higgs.

   Search and search and you will find that he proposed the Higgs mechanism 49 years ago. He is the winner with the longest time span between the birth of the result and the Nobel Prize. His little granddaughter went to the sea to make a film last year, etc.

   According to the data displayed by keywordsplanner.

   Between 05-12 years.

  The name Higgs has an average monthly search volume of 20,000 on Google, with a peak of 70,000.

   And 12 years after the discovery of the Higgs particle.

  The average monthly search volume of the name Higgs jumped to 1.36 million times, which is almost the same as that of Harlem Shake.

   This is the influence of the right to speak, subtle and cannot be ignored.

Of course.

   These are all things that need to be considered or expected after today. What Academician Pan wants to know more is

  What kind of medicine is sold in Weiteng's gourd?

   After reading Pangu particle's Chinese several times.

   Witten paused, and continued to ask:

   "Mr. Pan, I remember you gave a set of data before, in which the value of flux is 17.885, and the generator of index mapping is 1.3399596, right?"

  Academician Pan was slightly taken aback, then nodded immediately:

   "Exactly."

  At the beginning of the press conference, the Academy of Sciences once released a set of data.

  The data includes a series of values ​​such as quadratic divergence parameters, parity differences, wave function derivative operators, flux values, and exponential map generators.

   These data can be used to calculate the oxika value of the isolated particle through the relevant formula of the wave function.

  Using this method to simply calculate whether the lone particle conforms to the characteristics of dark matter.

  Later, Atsuto Suzuki's doubts about the Academy of Sciences also started with the secondary divergence parameter in the numerical value.

  But the problem is

  oxika value is a simple value that can be calculated by writing.

  But the calculation data provided by the Academy of Sciences for the calculation of the oxika value is measured and counted by instruments, and it is so accurate that it cannot be more accurate.

for example.

  Everyone knows that Niu Er is F=ma.

   In the case of complete data, the resultant external force F can be easily calculated with a pen.

   Then you can use the results to judge whether the resultant external force is large or small, whether it is pulled by a human or a donkey, etc. It is like using the oxika value to distinguish which dark matter model the calculation target conforms to.

  But the difficulty of calculating the resultant external force F is not positively correlated with the difficulty of measuring mass m and acceleration a.

  m may be an estimated value measured with a weight or even a palm, or it may be a high-precision value obtained with the most sophisticated instruments.

   Among them, the calculation data provided by the Chinese Academy of Sciences this time belongs to the latter case.

  At the same time, with the final success of the major institutions.

  These values ​​are not fabricated by the Academy of Sciences—the real hammer of dark matter is there.

  That is to say, it is impossible for Weiteng to question the secondary divergence parameters like Atsuto Suzuki did, thinking that HKUST is fraudulent.

  So what is the purpose of Weiteng asking these two values?

   Just when Academician Pan frowned slightly, Wei Teng in the audience said again:

   "Mr. Pan, what I want to ask is don't you feel that there is something weird between the flux value and the index mapping generator?"

  Academician Pan stared at Wei Teng for a few seconds before speaking meaningfully:

   "I'm sorry, Mr. Weiteng, I think it is necessary to emphasize one point to you—or you should also know that according to the retest results fed back by major institutions, the data given by the Academy of Sciences this time does not contain any falsification."

   "Besides, the value of flux and the generator of index mapping are the values ​​obtained in the second round, and there are no less than 40 participating institutions"

  Academician Pan still maintains restraint and respect at this time, but the tone and semantics have already carried some warning.

   It just makes Academician Pan a little strange.

  After quietly listening to these words in the audience, Wei Teng neither expressed dissatisfaction nor showed timidity, but quickly waved his hands:

   "Sorry, Mr. Pan, you may have misunderstood me."

   "I am not accusing the Academy of Sciences of a problem with the data, but that these two data should not be those two sets of numbers—if only the Pangu particle is used as a parameter."

   Then he thought about it and gave another example:

  "Everyone should know the history of planet discovery in the solar system, right? In the 18th century, William Herschel discovered what is now Uranus."

   "Then Auburn Le Verrier and others calculated the position of Neptune using Newton's law through the perturbation of orbiting Uranus, which is also a well-known achievement of classical physics in cosmology."

   "But over time, the scientific community found that the presence of Neptune was not sufficient to correct for Uranus' bias."

   "For example, Neptune's theoretical influence on Uranus is -2.2, but Uranus' actual deviation is -3."

   "It wasn't until Pluto was discovered that this error was optimized to a relatively reasonable range—although there is still a deviation, it is an extremely fine value that requires supercomputing to reflect."

   "According to my calculations just now, it seems that there is also such a situation in the flux value and index mapping generator given by the Academy of Sciences - the former is too large, and the latter is too small."

  Academician Pan was silent for a few seconds, and a guess suddenly popped up in his mind:

   "Mr. Witten, what do you mean"

  Wei Teng and Academician Pan looked at each other for a long time before nodding heavily:

   "That's right, Mr. Pan, I think there may also be an undiscovered particle in the orbit around the Pangu particle"

   "Pluto."
