Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

When a theory has been sufficiently clarified, when a report will win such a large-scale applause in the speech, the questioning session is somewhat redundant.

Of course, there are still many people who stand up and ask questions in the questioning session.

For these problems, Lu Zhou also answered one in detail after one after another.

This is undoubtedly an exciting improvement over the MRS conference, which has no hands-on.

This at least shows that the audience present is real, listening to his theory, not just to cover up his ignorance with applause.

After the report was released, several PhDs of Humboldt University ran to the podium and excitedly asked Lu Zhou to sign, in order to commemorate this moment that might be included in the history of chemistry.

Although it is not believed that history will record such trivial matters, Lu Zhou satisfies their request and scribbles their name on their textbooks.

From the front of the stage to the back of the scene, Ethel Professor came over to Lu Zhou and said in a serious voice.

“Whether the Nobel Committee agrees with the value of your theory, I will recommend your name to the Royal Swedish Science Academy.”

Lu Zhou squatted slightly and then said with a smile.

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” looked at Lu Zhou, and Etter’s Professor was also relieved. “Thank you for thanking us. Thank you for bringing this report to Berlin. I haven’t heard such a good report for a long time.” Although I can’t guarantee that you will win the Nobel Prize, I feel that at least the Nobel Prize nominated is yours.”

According to the Nobel Prize selection rules, the former Nobel Prize winners are qualified to recommend candidates.

However, there is nothing to be excited about. After all, the candidates selected each year usually have 1000 to 2000. After two rounds of screening, there is only one Nobel Prize.

In principle, the referrer cannot be disclosed, and the nomination information is strictly confidential during the 50 year.

However, in the initial recommendation, this rule was not strictly observed.

According to the award of a Nobel laureate, at least in the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, there is a joke such as “Hey, I recommended you to the Royal Academy of Sweden”, and the person being riddled usually reads in uneasiness. The longest year in life, until the final result of October was announced.

Of course, the Peace Prize and the Literature Prize need not be mentioned.

Even the bookmakers can “guess” the list of nominees in advance and open before the list is announced. These two awards have long been played.

Lu Zhou plays with a smile : “You shouldn’t tell me that there is no surprise for me.”

Ethel haha ​​laughed: “Just a nomination, don’t be too excited. When you get to my age, it’s not bad to be able to take Nobel’s medal home.”

Lu Zhou made a helpless expression.

“This is also… too shocking people.”

It is not realistic to win the Nobel Prize with a novel theory. Many things take time to test.

But he thinks that even so, he probably doesn’t have to wait for that long…

……

For the Nobel Prize, Lu Zhou was not in a hurry, nor did he have any anxiety because of the recommendations of Etter’s Professor.

He feels that for himself, the medal is an endorsement of his own research, but it is not the motivation that prompted him to engage in a research.

He is still young and the road ahead is still very long.

Peace of mind to do your own research, and wait for the fate, it is his thing, sooner or later.

And no matter how Lu Zhou thinks about his theory and the medal that hangs over his head, almost the entire theoretical chemistry community is sensational after the end of the report.

This sensational response is far more intense than when Lu Zhou’s thesis was first published in JACS.

Like the millennium puzzle in mathematics, there is also a problem in the chemistry community that needs to be solved.

It’s just that these questions can’t be summarized in simple language like the mathematic guess. Even the question of “who is more important” is controversial in various colleges.

However, even if the controversy exists, there is consensus in the international theoretical chemistry community in some places.

For example, as the first of the four major problems of 21 century chemistry, one of them is how to establish a time-dependent multi-body quantum theory and statistical theory of precise, effective and universally applicable chemistry reactions.

This seems to be a bit sloppy, and the description in plain language is how to accurately calculate the rate of chemistry reaction? How do you determine the pathway for the chemistry reaction? How do you determine which catalysts you need?

And, how to stand at the height of the theory, answer all the questions like this.

The theoretical model of the structural interface of electricity chemistry corresponds to a certain type of problem in the proposition.

To be an inappropriate but very vivid metaphor, the establishment of this theoretical model, the meaning of the “four major century chemistry problems”, is probably equivalent to the Hardy-Rittelwood theorem to GFB Riemann’s Conjecture.

The Hardy-Lettlewood Theorem determines that the number of non-trivial zeros in a certain interval is not less than KT, and the theoretical model of the interface structure of electric chemistry determines the microchemistry of a certain type of chemistry. Reaction theory.”

Immediately after the conclusion of Lu Zhou’s report, the Max Planck Institute for the Advancement of Science in Germany established a cross-subject group on the “theoretical model of the interface of electrical chemistry structure” and announced its support for the theory.

More interestingly, just after Mapu’s stated position, Martin Kapras Professor, who had previously published a scientific commentary on Nature, is optimistic about the theory, almost follow closely from behind in the chemistry community. Thesis published in the top issue “JACS”.

In thesis, Capras Professor cites the thesis previously published by Lu Zhou in JACS, which gives a clear explanation of the zero-charge potential of polycrystalline metal electrodes from a theoretical point of view.

Prior to this, this was seen as a classic problem in the field of electrochemistry and theoretical chemistry.

Although the existence of “zero-charge potential of polycrystalline metal electrodes” is unquestionable, there has been no conclusion about the formation mechanism and the nature of chemistry under microscopic conditions.

However, under the framework of “the theoretical model of the interface structure of electric chemistry”, it seems that it is not a difficult matter to solve this problem. At least, it is much easier to study this problem than from the perspective of “first principle calculation.”

Obviously, this Nobel Prize has already seen the theory as a success two months ago, so he immediately “beed” on it. So this thesis will be able to be sent out in time.

It seems that he is obviously bet on it now.

It is not just Martin Capras who is interested in this new theory.

With the end of the report, more and more researchers in the field of theoretical chemistry, and even researchers in the field of application, have shown great interest in this theory.

Compared with the “Kohn-Sham method” and “density functional theory”, which have large differences in calculation results and reality, the theoretical model of the electrochemistry interface structure is simply tailored to study the electrochemical chemistry of the material surface. It has strong guidance for the research in the field of polymers.

Especially for the Ph.D. in computing chemistry and computing Material Science, the emergence of this new theory is undoubtedly a boon for them.

At least, their Boss, now has another reason to leave them in the research team.

Just when the outside world speculated that Lu Zhou would become the youngest Nobel Prize winner because of this theory, the German chemistry society has made a decision in silence.

In recognition of the outstanding contribution of this theoretical model to chemistry, the German chemistry Society decided, after discussion, to grant the founder of this theory a remarkable medal…
