Great Country Academician

Chapter 314: Two Nobel Prizes for One Achievement

After leaving Xianlin Campus, Xu Chuan returned to Nantah University.

Turned on the computer and created a document, recording some of today's arrangements and plans, as well as some of the situation learned at the project base.

Although his memory is very good, generally he will not forget the things he has read and understood. But a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. He has too many things to be responsible for, and sometimes it is normal to forget something when he is busy.

At this time, he needs a document to assist himself.

And every year, Xu Chuan will rebuild a plan. In addition to sorting out the goals completed in the past year, new directions and goals will be added in.

In the eyes of others, he can produce Nobel Prize-level achievements almost every year, but most of these achievements are just living on his laurels.

In addition to the achievements in mathematics, whether it is artificial SEI films, inert neutrinos, or nuclear waste power generation technology, they are all brought back from rebirth.

Of course, the study of mathematics in this life also brought him a lot of gains.

Not much to say about the achievements in the field of pure mathematics. The staged results of the Xu-Hodge theorem and the NS equation are all top-notch.

But for him, the biggest achievement is the perfect integration of mathematical physics in the fields of high-energy physics and particle physics, to the extent that mathematics can be used to study physical particles in depth.

In addition, there are computational chemical models, which is also a path he has re-opened in his life.

Although it has just started, Xu Chuan believes that this road will never let him down. The potential of computational chemistry is definitely far beyond the imagination of the world.

To be honest, he is quite satisfied with his current state, at least he has achieved his goal of choosing mathematics as his major at the beginning.

It is his dream to perfectly integrate mathematics with other disciplines and help other disciplines, especially physics, to go further.

After dealing with these matters, Xu Chuan opened the mailbox and cleaned up the emails inside.

There are a lot of people who send him emails every day, and they will be piled up without cleaning them up in a week, so he has to check the mailbox almost every day or two.

Fortunately, most of the emails can be scanned and thrown directly into the trash can, and only those who are interested can stay or reply, which does not take too much time.

After browsing through the emails in the mail every day, it was useless to delete them, but it was useful to reply. Xu Chuan's eyes finally fell on yesterday's emails.

When he went to the controllable nuclear fusion base, both the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering sent him an email.

Xu Chuan clicked on it and looked. It was about the selection of academicians of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering this year. In the email, both the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering informed him that he would participate in the selection of academicians this year.

Commonly known as: "Academician candidate!"

Of course, whether it can be rated or not is still unknown.

It was impossible to make a guarantee in the email, but it was only informed that he had entered the academician candidate list.

After all, there are so many people participating in the selection of academicians every year, and there are only a few places in each department, so the competition must be huge.

For the selection of academicians, he must have ideas.

After all, he has won both the Nobel Prize and the Philippine Prize. Domestic academicians, at least academicians of the Academy of Sciences, will definitely be able to touch it, even if he is so young.

As for whether it can be secured, to be honest, it should be no problem to get an academician.

After all, the addition of the Nobel Prize and the Philippine Prize is still quite large. No matter how young you are, you can't ignore these two, and the voices of the domestic public and academic circles have to consider whether they are right or not.

If the winners of the Nobel Prize and Philippine Prize cannot get academicians, public opinion will definitely explode.

What Xu Chuan didn't expect was that someone from the Academy of Engineering recommended him.

After all, his main scientific research results are basically theoretical. Even the nuclear waste recycling technology was only accepted in June and July this year.

Logically speaking, it should wait until the next academician selection to be recommended.

These are good, the candidates for the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering are all on the list.

As for the academicians of the two academies at the same time, although Xu Chuan fancied it for a while, he felt that the possibility was unlikely.

Although there are not no academicians of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, they were all obtained in different years. It is a bit against the sky to obtain academicians of both academies in the same year or the first year.

So after Xu Chuan thought about it, he stopped dreaming.

He should be able to get an academician of the Academy of Sciences this year, and after the completion of the controlled nuclear fusion project, or after the nuclear waste recycling technology has been fermented for a period of time, he should be able to get an academician of the Academy of Engineering.

The time is estimated to be before the age of thirty.

Honestly, that's amazing enough, too.

Under the age of thirty, he was directly promoted to academician of the two academies, and his reputation can scare a lot of people to death.

After thinking happily for a while, Xu Chuan sent an email to thank the two houses and the recommender, and then returned his attention to the email processing.

After spending more than ten minutes, he finally got rid of the mails that had piled up in the past few days.

Leaning on the back of the chair, Xu Chuan stared at the ceiling.

At present, the controllable nuclear fusion project has been launched. Although there is full support from the country, it is not so easy to start from nothing and complete the construction.

Compared with the basic construction of the project, the core fusion reactor is the real difficulty.

Especially this time, what he used was not a conventional tokamak or stellarator device, but a composite device that he redesigned in Princeton in later generations.

This is a new and unknown route for the current field of controllable nuclear fusion, and no one can guarantee that it will be correct.

At this point, even Xu Chuan himself was not sure that this route would be successful.

It can only be said that in the future, composite devices have gradually entered the mainstream, and composite devices that combine the advantages of tokamak, stellarator and hemispherical bed have greater advantages than other individual devices.

But even so, there are still many problems to be solved along the way.

As for the present, the most important thing is to develop superconducting materials first.

"Professor, the results of this year's Nobel Prize have come out, but unfortunately you are not in it. But the winners are related to you."

In the office, Xu Chuan was planning arrangements when Amelia's playful and pretty voice sounded in his ears.

When he came back to his senses, he looked over, and Amelia squinted her eyes like a little fox and said with a smile:

"This year's Nobel Prize has been awarded to Swiss astrophysicists Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz, and an astrophysics professor from New Zealand Vogt Armstrong."

"The first two were awarded for the first discovery of the extrasolar planet '51 Pegasi b'er in 1955."

"The latter is because in 2017, using the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem, it precisely locked a star named 'TRAPPIST-1'."

"And accurately judge the planetary situation of this star system, and determine that there is a highly similar terrestrial planet in the 'TRAPPIST-1' star system."

The discovery of 51 Pegasi b is a milestone in astronomy, which makes scientists realize that giant planets may also exist in short-period orbits.

The discovery of the 'TRAPPIST-1' star system and high-terrestrial planets has made people see hope in the universe. In the future, this may be the second parent star of mankind. After all, it is not far from the earth, only a distance of more than 20 light years.

The two achievements, separated by more than 60 years, were then presented together by the judges of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which can also be called a great testimony.

For Xu Chuan, although he does not have his share in this year's Nobel Prize, his presence in it should not be underestimated.

Because this is the second Nobel Prize in Physics for the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem.

One achievement has resulted in two Nobel Prizes in Physics, and it has been two consecutive years. This is quite shocking even for the entire physics community, and even the entire scientific community.

If one Nobel Prize is enough for major universities to carry out corresponding courses, then the appearance of the second Nobel Prize will directly push this achievement into one of the hottest fields.

And as the founder of this achievement, his reputation will naturally be promoted accordingly.

Of course, in fact, from another perspective, there are not many important results in cutting-edge theoretical physics.

Frontier physics is stagnating, and this has become a near-default thing for many physicists.

If this were not the case, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences would not have awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics to the same theory two years in a row.

Although it does matter.

But for the Nobel Prize, this is not a good thing.

As Xu Chuan expected, the announcement of the Nobel Prize in October caused a sensation in the physics community.

The extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem won another Nobel Prize in Physics, turning this tool into a hen that can lay golden eggs in the eyes of all physicists, which has aroused interest and discussion among countless people.

[This year's Physics Prize was awarded to Astronomy again. 】

【Haha, I was right, I speculated before that the result of the outer planet that looks 90% similar to the earth might win the Nobel Prize, and I really won it! 】

[I think Professor Xu is even more awesome! A mathematical achievement, won two Nobel Prizes in physics, it is simply terrible. 】

[Indeed, this achievement is too exaggerated. It has won the Nobel Prize for two consecutive years, which is really impressive! 】

【It's too late to learn now, maybe there is still a chance to win another Nobel Prize? 】

[Upstairs said that there is nothing wrong with it. At the International Mathematical Conference in 2018, Professor Xu once said that this mathematical method may be used to calculate high-dimensional spaces. If someone can do it, he will definitely win another Nobel Prize. 】

[Tsk tsk, at least three Nobel Prizes for one achievement, scary! 】

With the announcement of the Nobel Prize, there have been discussions on major professional forums and websites.

It has to be said that the expanded application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem was beyond everyone's expectations to win the second Nobel Prize.

But it also speaks to the greatness and depth of this achievement.

Many scholars, not only physicists, but even mathematicians curiously began to study the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem.

Maybe there is hope to win a Nobel Prize?

After all, it has already produced two, and it is not impossible to produce another one.

PS: There is another chapter in the evening, the end of the month is coming, please ask for a monthly pass, dear friends, can you pay three thousand, it is only six or seven hundred. (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭~
