Research starts with PhD students

Chapter 344: A Desperate Reality! Catching up? It's like a dream!
Zhang Shuo attaches great importance to the new international academic conference on source point theory.

He arrived in the capital three days in advance.

As the Shark spacecraft became the focus of international public opinion and even academia, a large number of scholars became very interested in Source Technology.

They are more concerned about technology rather than theory, but theory supports technological research and development, and they also hope to learn more about the most cutting-edge theoretical content at the conference.

Of course, technology is more attractive.

Nowadays, many scholars are expanding on existing theories, studying the relationship between electromagnetic force and gravitational force, and the relationship between electromagnetic force and strong force.

Based on the relationship between the two theories, we will further develop and expand related scientific and technological content.

There is nothing wrong with this kind of research.

Although gravitational technology has been developed, and powerful research has also spawned some incredible technologies, such as gold manufacturing and ion cannons, the application scope of the new physical technology direction is still very narrow.

Even the underlying theory is not perfect. We can only say that there is no problem with the main framework, and a lot of things can be filled in the framework, and a lot of things can be developed based on it.

However, the research and development carried out in this way are all technological developments, not technological revolutions.

What Zhang Shuo pursues is the development of basic theory and the perfection of the overall framework, not just technical improvement.

He hopes to be able to rush higher on the basis.

Two days before the conference started, scholars gathered around the venue.

The conference was huge, with more than 2000 scholars participating. Compared with a physics theory conference, the scale was somewhat incredible.

Even if there are several hundred people attending, it is considered a large academic conference.

The scale of today's conferences can be compared to international mathematicians' conferences, and the number and quality of participating scholars may be even higher.

Among them, domestic scholars account for about half, and the rest are foreign scholars.

Many very famous physicists came to the venue, and many mathematicians participated, including some Nobel Prize and Fields winners.

But in the new direction of physics, the Nobel Prize seems to be unable to explain the problem.

Nobel Prize winners are not sought after because they have not made significant contributions to new directions in physics.

Some other very young scholars, who were previously unknown, made theoretical or technological breakthroughs in new physics directions and suddenly became very famous, becoming the focus of attention in the conference venue.

Zhang Shuo also came to the scene. He was with the people from the Chaos Force Field project team. He also found the organizers together with Liao Zhenyu, Yu Fei and others to discuss the meeting arrangements.

Zhang Shuo is an invited scholar and he will participate in the review of the report.

During the opening ceremony, he will also deliver a speech on behalf of the Source Point Research Center.

The Chaos Force Field Project Group is also the most watched organization. Liao Zhenyu delivered a speech on behalf of the project group, talking about the progress of the chaos force field experiment and research issues.

Yu Fei and Tisgo-Johnson will represent the Chaos Field Project Team to conduct routine experiments and report on the work results of the international cooperation team.

The day before the meeting started, Zhang Shuo, Liao Zhenyu and others sat together to discuss the work related to the transformation of the chaos force field equipment, surrounded by a large group of scholars.

The Chaos Force Field Project Group is the core institution for international chaos force field research and the largest participating team in the Source Point Theory Academic Conference. Nearly two hundred people came to the capital to attend the conference.

Among them, there are more than 100 members in the international cooperation group, and the others are theoretical and experimental scholars sent by the Institute of High Energy Physics.

While Zhang Shuo, Liao Zhenyu and others were talking, many scholars around them were taking pictures, because there were not many opportunities to meet Zhang Shuo.

Things are different now.

It is difficult for ordinary people to see Zhang Shuo, and he will not participate in ordinary academic conferences. Except for some large-scale R&D projects, he spends most of his time in Suzhou.

When talking about future research on chaotic force fields, Zhang Shuo clearly stated, "Our new work is to measure quantum entanglement."

"By measuring quantum entanglement, we can build a bridge between quantum physics and source point physics. In addition, we can also study the underlying weak force correlation through experimental discovery..."

This is not the first time that Zhang Shuo has talked about this.

Liao Zhenyu, Yu Fei and others have heard it before. Other scholars listened with great interest because it was the first time they heard such an argument: quantum entanglement measurement?

Weak connection?

These contents sound very impressive, and many people have also gained understanding of the direction of the chaos force field experiment.

During the conversation, Yu Fei started a new topic, "Academician Zhang, it's amazing that you are researching that material in the superconducting laboratory!"

"The 122 materials that set records in critical temperature and current carrying capacity make our experimental equipment modification work much easier."

"The original design was very complicated. With this material, the transformation has been simplified and the performance has been enhanced. By then, the experiment will be clearer..."

After hearing this, others also spoke up, "I really didn't expect that the 122 material could reach this level."

"It directly replaces niobium-titanium alloy, and we won't need liquid chlorine anymore."

"Our laboratory's research has become simpler. Superconductivity is the most difficult thing. New materials have made superconductivity simpler and the cost has also been reduced. It's just that it's not easy to buy more..."

"The production speed is too slow. It can't supply all the laboratories yet, but it will be fine once the next batch comes out."

During the discussion, Liao Zhenyu also asked, "Academician Zhang, what do you think of superconductivity? Can you research applicable room-temperature superconducting materials?"

"This...it's hard to say."

Zhang Shuo said with a smile, "It's not a big deal if we talk about raising the critical temperature, but it's too difficult to reach normal temperature. This is a technology that allows humans to achieve a scientific and technological revolution."

"I personally think that it is much more difficult to achieve an ideal height in a single direction than to cover new technologies."

"Historically, this has been the case with most technologies. For example, controlled nuclear fusion has too high control requirements and is too expensive, so we use new nuclear energy to cover it."

"Instead of focusing on the research and development of room-temperature superconducting materials, it is better to study some new technologies. For example, through some technical means, we can transform the materials and greatly reduce their resistance..."

Zhang Shuo shared some of his thoughts.

He said that the research and development of room-temperature superconductors is difficult, not because of the research and development itself, but also because it is impossible to even establish the task of researching related materials. He had tried it a long time ago, and it simply didn't work.

Either the research and development is too difficult, or the underlying theory and technology are insufficient, or it is simply impossible to achieve.

Everyone around was listening attentively.

Some people think that Zhang Shuo’s idea is unreliable. Can the resistance be reduced by modifying the materials?

It won't work at all!
The lowest resistance is found in single metal materials, such as copper, silver, etc. Regardless of whether it is a compound, alloy, or composite material, the resistance will only be higher than that of a single material.

The question is, how can single-element materials be transformed?
Others felt that what Zhang Shuo said made sense because they knew more information, such as gravitational barrier technology.

Gravitational barrier technology can affect materials at the molecular level or even the atomic level. Through certain specific technical means, it is possible to naturally produce effects on materials and research materials with ultra-low resistance.

……

On the morning of the meeting, Zhang Shuo arrived at the venue early. At this time, there were already many people in the square outside the venue, and some reporters came to the scene for interviews.

When they saw Zhang Shuo, several reporters gathered around.

Zhang Shuo looked at the time and still accepted the interview with the reporter.

The reporter immediately asked, "What effect does the chaotic force field experiment have on source point physics?"

This kind of question is a bit unprofessional.

Zhang Shuo simply said, "The chaotic force field experiment is the basis of the source point physics theory research. The fundamental force is initially concerned with the chaotic force field."

A reporter immediately asked, "The chaotic force field experiment is related to basic theoretical research, so can it be used to develop a technical foundation? For example, gravitational technology, nuclear force splitting, etc."

The question was asked by a foreign reporter.

Zhang Shuo laughed out loud. He knew that foreign countries were more concerned about new physics technology. He then shook his head and said with a smile, "Your question is very amateurish. No scholar would say that."

“Theory is theory, technology is technology, and theory and technology are different studies.”

"In fact, the theories are all public, including the relationship between electromagnetic force, gravity and strong force. Technology is based on this research."

He said a few simple words.

Other scholars around me also agree with this because the theory is indeed public. Some famous international experimental teams conduct research based on public theory, but some research is very difficult.

Gravity technology is relatively better.

There may be great risks in the process of researching power-related technologies, and to achieve technological breakthroughs, there must be some accidental new discoveries.

In this respect, the study of sensations and materials is very similar.

Even if there is a basic theory, it is somewhat "coincidental" to develop the technology.

The reason why various technical research teams continue to make breakthroughs is mainly because the experiments are easy to do and the experimental risks are relatively small. This is different from intensive research, where the experimental risks are very high and breakthroughs are very difficult.

In fact, it still requires the accumulation of basic knowledge. Even if you do hundreds of gravitational experiments, you may not be able to perform even one strong-force experiment.

The reporter continued to ask questions and Zhang Shuo answered them patiently.

Some reporters also asked about the Shark spacecraft. They knew that Zhang Shuo must know the technology of the Shark spacecraft.

Zhang Shuo just smiled and shook his head, "The performance of the spacecraft is very good, I also saw it."

"But that's not my research..."

There is no need to say more about the rest.

Soon it was half past eight and the scholars gathered at the main venue.

The opening ceremony of the conference began with an award ceremony. Two domestic scholars and one foreign scholar won awards. They all made breakthroughs in theoretical research and contributed to the improvement of the basic force relationship model framework of the source point theory.

After that, the organizer gave a speech and talked about some content such as the meeting procedures.

The next speaker was a representative from the Academy of Sciences, who explained the importance of the source point theory and how it led to a new physical and technological revolution.

The next one is Zhang Shuo.

Zhang Shuo spoke on behalf of the Source Point Research Center, but in fact, his personal influence is greater.

When Zhang Shuo was about to give a speech, everyone became serious.

He first reviewed the development history of the source point theory and talked about some scientific and technological content, and then turned to the improvement of the main framework of the source point theory.

"The origin theory has not been developed for a long time since its emergence, but in fact, I personally feel that both theoretical and technical research has entered a bottleneck period."

"In the past year, or even the past two years, there has been no breakthrough in basic theory and technology. The reason is that the origin theory and even the origin technology have entered a stage of long-term accumulation..."

"This is the normal law of physics and technological development."

“When a theory or technology develops to a certain level, bottlenecks will naturally appear. But I hope to break through the bottleneck so that the theory and technology can develop faster and humans can analyze higher-level physical laws from a new perspective…”

What Zhang Shuo said was very attractive. He opened up a whole new topic and even spoke from a very unique perspective.

Bottleneck of theory and technology?
Before the meeting started, no one would think about the bottleneck problem, because source physics has only been around for a short time.

Compared to brand new physics and technology, ten or twenty years are very short.

bottleneck?

how could it be possible!
Now in the field of source physics, there is so much to study, both in theory and technology, and breakthroughs can easily be made in all directions. To most people, new physics is in a period of "rapid development" and no bottleneck problems have been found at all.

But, if you think about it carefully, it's normal.

Zhang Shuo’s perspective is different from theirs. He pioneered the source point theory and constructed a basic force relationship model, thereby perfecting the subject theory and researching a number of high-end technologies.

In the past two years, there have indeed been no major breakthroughs, and even in theory, there has been no major research. It is reasonable to say that theoretical research has reached a bottleneck.

Domestic scholars are still able to accept Zhang Shuo's remarks.

Especially the Chaos Force Field Project Team, they are conducting cutting-edge experiments and hope to make breakthroughs in research and discover something new.

By then, perhaps we will be able to break through the so-called "bottleneck" and achieve a new round of theoretical and technological development.

The vast majority of foreign scholars hold a different view. They feel that they have fallen behind the times because bottlenecks have nothing to do with them.

They have only just begun to develop new physics technologies.

Their team has not been able to fully master various new physical technologies, let alone any bottlenecks.

This feeling is very bad.

The domestic situation is already pursuing higher technology, but they haven’t even mastered the existing technology. The gap is already unimaginably large, and there is not even hope of catching up.

Those scholars who hoped to learn more theories through the conference and then conduct technological research and development felt even more desperate. "What kind of technological catch-up are those politicians still talking about?"

“This is simply not possible!”

"There is such a huge gap now. The other party has begun to discuss deeper theories and technologies. The gap will only get bigger..."

"It's impossible to catch up, and surpassing... is like a dream!"

"At least for this generation, there is definitely no hope."

This is the despairing reality.
