Physics laboratory, small conference room on the first floor.
This meeting was different from the past. Only a few people from the core of the laboratory participated.
Apart from Wang Hao and Ruan Weiping, the only others are He Yi, Xiang Qiansheng, Xiao Xinyu, Yan Jing and Zhao Chuanxin.
There are researchers in the front and associate researchers in the back.
Yan Jing and Zhao Chuanxin both belong to the kind of "creatable talents" who have made great contributions to past experiments and are also young people trained in the laboratory.
The reason why only core members of the laboratory are allowed to participate is because the experimental design is related to confidentiality, and the layout of the internal superconducting materials can only be built by core members or personnel from Factory 244.
The content of the meeting was also different from the past.
This time cannot be said to be a meeting, it can only be said to be a handover of work.
Wang Hao has designed the superconducting material layout for the experiment, which adopts a complex structure that spirals inward and is divided into eight nodes, which looks like an inverted cone.
Eight nodes are distributed in the middle, like an inverted cone with irregular supports.
He took out the structural diagram he drew and showed it to everyone, without explaining it in detail, and then directly assigned work.
Xiao Xinyu and Zhao Chuanxin are the researchers mainly responsible for the experiment, and their tasks in the experiment are relatively arduous.
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi are responsible for power supply, equipment, overall arrangement and data collection. They are the core researchers of the laboratory.
Yan Jing is only responsible for data.
After all the work has been assigned, the meeting ends.
Xiao Xinyu, Zhao Chuanxin and Yan Jing immediately went to tell others to prepare for the experiment.
Ruan Weiping only listened to half of it and left early. He would not directly intervene in the experiment. After knowing the content of the experiment, he could just make a report based on the experimental results.
In fact, Ruan Weiping is still interested in participating in the experiment. He feels that he is 'experienced'. The research at Factory 244 has increased the intensity of the AC gravity field to 10%.
This is a very high number, which means that their research direction is correct.
However, he kindly put forward an opinion, but it was not adopted at all. He knew that Wang Hao had his own ideas, so naturally he would not seek trouble.
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi were left in the conference room.
Xiang Qiansheng asked about the experimental question, "Professor Wang, what principle is your design based on? Is it an analysis of previous experiments?"
"I have established a mathematical model, and this is the result of my analysis." Wang Hao said bluntly, "Now this experiment is for verification."
"Is it a verification of the AC gravity field strength?" Xiang Qiansheng already had a guess, because only the layout of the superconducting material was changed, but he still wanted to confirm the content with Wang Hao.
Wang Hao nodded in agreement with his question.
Xiang Qiansheng suddenly asked curiously, "Regarding this adjustment, do you have any expectations for the results?" In fact, he didn't want to ask so many questions, but because he found that during the experiment, he mainly participated in the experimental work instead of doing the core work. analysis and demonstration, and I am still confused about the experimental research methods.
He listened to Wang Hao's explanation of the theory, but because it involved very complex mathematical problems, it was not easy to understand it in a short time.
Wang Hao nodded and said, "Let me tell you in advance that the final value of this experiment is expected to exceed 15%."
"Fifteen percent?"
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi suddenly opened their mouths in surprise.
This value is far beyond expectations.
In the seven experiments they conducted before, the highest organization was only 6.4%. Why did it suddenly become 15%? It’s simply incomprehensible!
Wang Hao smiled and continued, "However, I can't say for sure. It's just my own expectation. I won't know the result until the experiment is over."
Xiang Qiansheng was full of excitement after hearing the expectations, "I'm already looking forward to it. Even if it's only 10%, it's quite amazing."
Although he did not participate in the core analysis, he was still an important participant in the experiment. If he could achieve significant results, it would be considered a success.
However, he still held a conservative attitude towards the results because he did not understand the underlying theory. Everything was said by Wang Hao and was not based on the judgment of the experiment.
He Yi didn't think so much. He made a small report to Wang Hao, "We have been burning too much money recently. We spent another 4.3 million in two weeks. From the time of allocation to now, we have spent Twenty-seven million."
"Fortunately, there are materials purchased in advance, otherwise subsequent experiments may cost more."
"That doesn't include labor costs."
The labor cost is also the bonus for the laboratory. Anyone who participates in the experiment will definitely get the bonus. It can also be understood as a subsidy for participating in the experiment.
In fact, when the project funding came down, they had already given out a bonus, which was almost a warm-up for the project.
This is normal operation.
When the funding for each project comes down, the project participants will receive a certain bonus, which is considered as payment of scientific research labor fees in advance, which is additional income for scientific researchers.
This was the first time for He Yi to participate in such a large project. He felt very distressed every time he spent money. Thinking that 27 million was spent in just a few months, he was really reluctant to part with it.
Xiang Qiansheng didn't feel anything about this. Instead, he twitched his lips and said, "We have been very economical. I have only received a bonus of 20,000 yuan so far."
This amount of money could not even keep up with his monthly basic income. After he arrived at Xihai University, his deepest impression of He Yi was that he was stingy.
Very stingy!
Wang Hao said nonchalantly, "Professor He, you don't have to worry too much about funds. Spend money where it should be spent, especially on labor costs. We who do scientific research are very hard-working, and participating in experiments is dangerous."
"Sometimes the work intensity is also very high. Not to mention 996, there is no holiday at all when we actually start experiments."
"And in terms of funding, you don't have to worry. After this experiment, even if you apply for twice as much funding, I believe someone will be willing to pay."
He said it with absolute certainty.
He Yi was looking forward to it, and it took him a long time to decide, "Let's do this. If this experiment achieves the expected results, I will give another bonus to the lab."
Wang Hao doesn't care about bonuses. He is the person in charge of the project, and a bonus of tens of thousands of yuan is nothing to him.
He has always advocated that people should be paid whatever they have the ability to do.
For a scientific research institution, better treatment can attract more talents, especially when there is no shortage of funds. Giving out more bonuses is also a way to attract talents.
However, Wang Hao will not directly intervene in the financial issues of the project. He cannot personally handle everything. It is also a good thing to a certain extent that a 'frugal' person like He Yi is responsible.
the other side.
After Ruan Weiping left the conference room, he walked towards his residence. On the way, he felt a little funny when he thought about the question Wang Hao said before the meeting.
Is the experimental AC gravity field stronger than the 244 factory?
How can this be!
If he hadn't done the experiment together, he might still have believed what Wang Hao said. After all, the other party was a top mathematician, and it was also the other party who successfully replicated the AC gravity experiment and achieved certain results in increasing the strength of the field force.
However, he followed the entire experiment.
In the previous most successful experiment, the strength of the AC gravity field was only 6.4%.
This data is too different.
It is impossible to summarize past experiments, and then designing experiments can really make a big improvement, right?
The road must be walked step by step; similarly, technological breakthroughs do not happen overnight.
The phone suddenly rang.
Ruan Weiping picked up the phone and found the call from Liu Yunli. He immediately clicked the answer button and heard Liu Yunli on the other side ask, "Old Ruan, how are you doing there? I heard Wang Qiang say that at the Basic Science Center, the mathematics constructed The model is very good, and it seems to provide direct data support for AC gravity experiments."
"Really? I don't know."
Ruan Weiping thought about it, "The Basic Science Center is indeed more professional, and I heard that they have hired several mathematics professors. They also have more experience in the research of condensed matter physics."
Liu Yunli asked, "How are you doing there?"
"Here... I don't know." Ruan Weiping hesitated and did not say why. After thinking about it later, he said, "I feel that there is no progress. I followed several experiments and the most intense one was at six o'clock. Four, there is no higher level.”
"However, just now Professor Wang Hao said that the results of their next experiment may exceed ours? I don't understand."
"Is there such a thing?" Liu Yunli was also surprised.
Ruan Weiping simply said bluntly, "Yeah, I don't believe it anyway. We have done so many experiments, so many people have argued together, and they have just started for two weeks. How can we expect those mathematical analyzes to pass complicated theories that we can't understand?" , can you surpass us with just one experiment?"
After he finished speaking, he added, "That's really unreasonable!"
"So, I said at that time, if you can surpass us, I will come here to do experiments and give you a project."
Liu Yunli also sounded a little amused, and then said, "If they can surpass us in two weeks, then what research should we do? Just like you said, just cooperate with them in experiments."
"That's fine. I was planning to take over for you, so let's go there earlier."
"It'll be there tomorrow!"
He was suddenly looking forward to what he said. It sounded very interesting to be able to catch up with an experiment called 'beyond the results of Factory 244'.
…
The 244 factory is also in the northwest region.
Liu Yunli kept his promise and arrived at Xihai University the next morning. He did not come by himself, but also brought a professor named Xue Chang with him.
At this time, the experiment has not yet begun.
Wang Hao heard that someone else was coming and went out to receive them.
After Liu Yunli came in, he said, "Professor Wang, I finally see you. Your name is so famous."
"This year everyone in our institute is saying that you are Goldbach's conjecture and NS equation again. In mathematics, no one can match it."
"That's ridiculous."
Wang Hao was polite, because he had been praised by too many people, and he was already immune to regular compliments.
After Liu Yunli said a few polite words, he said, "I came here for your experiment this time. I took the bus at four o'clock in the morning and I just arrived now."
"I heard Ruan Weiping say that you are very confident in the experiment? So let's come over and take a look and learn together."
"No matter what the result is, it will be helpful to our research."
Liu Yunli came to replace Ruan Weiping as usual, but after hearing about the experiment, he came to watch the excitement in advance. Watching the excitement must not be said to be watching the excitement, but he must speak more tactfully.
Wang Hao didn't care what Liu Yunli said. After the introduction, he knew that the other person was a researcher at Factory 244 and was directly involved in the exchange of gravity experiments.
He immediately asked, "Professor Liu, yesterday Professor Ruan said that if our results in this experiment exceed yours, your research will be our sub-project. Does this count?"
Liu Yunli didn't expect Wang Hao to ask this, but he still said with certainty, "Of course it counts."
"Don't worry, Ruan Weiping and I are both the main persons in charge of the project, and this one, Xue Chang, the three of us can make the decision."
Xue Chang has been silent and seems to be a bit taciturn in character.
He hesitated when he heard Liu Yunli's statement, thought about it, and finally nodded, "We can decide."
Wang Hao smiled and said, "That's good."
He is still looking forward to this project. There is a project team dedicated to cooperating with experiments. Some complex experiments can be handed over. They only need core experiments.
This can reduce a lot of workload and the experimental cycle will be greatly shortened.
In fact, to a certain extent, it means expanding the laboratory, increasing funding, and at the same time increasing the number of people participating in the experiment.
Because the experiment was about to start, Liu Yunli and Xue Chang went directly to the experimental center.
Now the experimental center is not in the hall, but in an open space behind the laboratory, which has been transformed into an experimental venue, and the environment can meet the needs of the experiment.
After Wang Hao arrived at the experimental site, the final preparations for the experiment began.
A group of people were busy around the central device.
Several researchers from Factory 244 stood aside and watched. They had conducted more than twenty experiments and were familiar with everything. They even felt that the physics laboratory was a bit unprofessional.
However, there is no problem overall, because the core is the structure of the internal superconducting material, which cannot be seen on the surface.
"Relatively speaking, the physics laboratory is still less professional." Liu Yunli said, "I am more optimistic about the research of the Basic Science Center. They have not applied for funding, but I heard from Wang Qiang that they are very professional."
Ruan Weiping said, "It is a large professional institution. The physics laboratory is just a small institution. It is surprising to be able to reach this level."
He added, “Professor Xiang’s level is pretty good.”
Xue Chang suddenly asked, "Liu Yunli, you were so sure as you just said. If their results really surpass ours, are we really here to cooperate in the experiment?"
"That's impossible."
"impossible."
Liu Yunli and Ruan Weiping said together.
Liu Yunli continued, "We have done dozens of experiments, and so many people have participated in the demonstration. If this can be exceeded, our research will be meaningless."
"yes!"
Ruan Weiping said, "I think so too."
"But have you ever thought about a problem?" Xue Chang said, "Many mathematicians around the world have studied Goldbach's conjecture, and it was finally proved by Wang Hao."
Liu Yunli and Ruan Weiping were silent for a while.
Liu Yunli still insisted, "Mathematics is mathematics and physics is physics. They are not related at all."
Xue Chang still shook his head.
Ruan Weiping said, "Xue Chang, you are always worried about this and that. What is there to worry about? We have been doing research all our lives, don't we even have this little confidence?"
As they spoke, the final preparations for the experiment were over.
Wang Hao, wearing a lab coat, stood beside him and waved, "Let's get started!"
Power is on.
Several people involved in the experiment immediately began to transport liquid nitrogen for cooling to the equipment, and the temperature index inside dropped rapidly.
When a critical temperature is reached, you can see the indicator above rising continuously, which means that the AC gravity field has been formed.
Because the experiment has been done so many times, this situation is no longer exciting.
Everyone is staring at the detection pointer on the top instrument. The pointer is a summary of data from several instruments. The computer controls the steering after calculation. It is specially used to measure the strength of the AC gravity field.
The value displayed by the pointer is not accurate, the deviation is about one percent, and the maximum can even reach two percent.
The final accurate data still needs to be collected through data aggregation.
However, the data of the pointer is also representative to a certain extent. Xiang Qiansheng, He Yi and others are constantly staring at the data of the pointer.
Wang Hao said that it is expected to exceed 15%.
That's a big number.
If the experiment is successful, the intensity indicated by the pointer must exceed ten percent.
At this time, the pointer deflected a little bit.
Cross 3%...
5%…
Keep rising.
7%…
10%.
"Exceeded! Exceeded!" He Yi shouted in surprise.
Ruan Weiping, Liu Yunli and Xue Chang initially looked at it from a distance. As the pointer continued to deflect, they couldn't help but look closer.
The expressions on their faces were full of disbelief.
The pointer still continues to deflect.
13%…
15%…
"It's still going on! It's still going on!" He Yi shouted as a reminder, "Don't be stunned, keep cooling down! Keep cooling down!"
Others reacted, quickly suppressed their excitement, and continued the work at hand.
The pointer struggled at the 15% value for a long time, then continued to rise, and finally passed 17%, and never went higher.
17%!
When the experiment stopped, others couldn't help but exclaimed, "Seventeen percent!"
"Really seventeen points? Oh my god! It's more than ten points higher than last time!"
"I thought it was seven points at most!"
"This is too high!"
Amid everyone's exclamations, Ruan Weiping and Liu Yunli looked at each other in shock, unable to say a word for a long time.
Xue Chang turned to look at the two of them and said lightly, "It's all thanks to you that we can move."
