Thinking that it might be about joining the research group, Xu Yun didn't bother to join Qian Yudong, Zhou Qi and the others in their conversation. He quickly put down his chopsticks, reached for his phone and pressed the answer button.
Hearing the voice coming from the microphone, a look of excitement appeared on his face.
Replied immediately and decisively without any hesitation.
"Okay Professor Tang."
After ending the call, he quickly cleared away the rice scraps on the table, then turned around and said to the others in the dormitory.
"Professor Tang came to see me for something."
Hua Luo picked up the trash and walked out of the dormitory, looking very anxious.
There has been no news since the last time he told Tang Yanshan that he wanted to join the research team. This made him worry about the advanced tasks and wondering if there were other ways to do it. Unexpectedly, Tang Yanshan's call came in such a timely manner, bringing him the good news.
According to Tang Yanshan’s brief description on the phone, there is indeed a subject that suits him right now.
In this case, you must get over it as soon as possible and decide the matter first.
Qian Yudong looked at Xu Yun's back. He didn't turn around until he completely disappeared from sight and continued to look at Zhao Yuefeng and Zhou Qi.
"Have you seen that Xu Yun, a busy man, has no time to attend the school sports meeting?"
"So let me, the head of the dormitory, bear it."
"Actually, there's something I haven't said. I ran a lot when I was in high school. I will definitely not embarrass our dormitory that day." Qian Yudong recalled his style in high school, not forgetting to express his gratitude to Zhao Yuefeng and Zhou Qi. The two of them ordered: "You two must be present for me that day. I must first overwhelm the others in terms of momentum."
Zhao Yuefeng and Zhou Qi did not expose Qian Yudong's Xiao Jiujiu. They all nodded in agreement with smiles on their lips.
It’s true that they like the lively scene of sports games, but they really don’t want to participate in events.
Whether Qian Yudong really loves sports or wants to get close to the cheerleaders from other departments, he at least went out of his way to get through this matter.
While several people in the dormitory were discussing the details of the sports meeting, Xu Yun had already arrived at Tang Yanshan's office.
Seeing the door open, he walked straight in and said hello to Tang Yanshan who was sitting on the chair.
"Professor Tang."
"You're here just in time. You'll report to the Institute of Science and Technology later. I'll say hello over there."
Professor Tang saw Xu Yun coming and immediately explained.
But these sudden words made Xu Yun a little confused. It seemed that the way things unfolded was a little different from what he imagined.
Isn’t it a research group from the Department of Mathematics?
Why should I go to the institute?
He muttered something secretly in his heart, and quickly asked out loud the next second.
"Professor Tang."
"Is there something wrong?"
"Isn't it the research group in our department that asked me to join?"
"Why do you want to go to the animal garden?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yanshan reacted quickly, with an embarrassed smile on his face and explained immediately.
"I forgot to tell you. I have looked at the current topics for professors or doctoral students in our department, but none of them are suitable for you. It just so happens that Lao Yang of the Institute of Physics is studying carbon nanotube electronic blackbodies, and someone needs to conduct research on the vertical array of nanotubes. Geometric modeling is more suitable for you and will also be of great help to you in participating in the Higher Education Society Cup in the future.”
"So I recommended you to Lao Yang."
"It just so happens that this job isn't too heavy and won't affect your studies of other courses."
After Xu Yun listened to Tang Yanshan's words, he realized that the other party had considered so many things for him.
Although he failed to enter the research group of the Department of Mathematics in the end and went to the Institute of Physics by chance, he still got the opportunity to complete advanced tasks.
Nothing to regret.
After thinking about this clearly, he no longer hesitated and immediately nodded to agree to the arrangement.
"I understand Professor Tang, I will go to the Institute of Physics later."
"Lao Yang and I have a good relationship. If you have anything you don't understand, just go to him and ask him for advice." Tang Yanshan thought for a while and then specifically asked: "We have no shame here."
"If you have nothing else to do, you can go over there."
"Thank you, Professor Tang." Xu Yun thanked him again from the bottom of his heart, and then turned and left.
…
Compared with the Department of History, the School of Physics is closer to the Department of Mathematics. Xu Yun went to the School of Physics to listen to Xu Chongxing’s open classes before, and it didn’t take long for him to come here again and become familiar with it.
He knew that the old Yang in Tang Yanshan's mouth was Yang Huaping, a professor at the Institute of Physics, who was in charge of the Key Laboratory of Low-Dimensional Quantum.
In terms of age, he is almost the same as Tang Yanshan.
Following the information, I came to a laboratory building in the Institute of Physics and soon walked to the door of Yang Huaping's office.
Normally, when facing Tang Yanshan, I would not feel nervous or reserved because I was already familiar with him, but now when I have to report to Yang Huaping, my mood is completely different.
He stood at the door and took a deep breath, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Yang Huaping's voice came from the room. Xu Yun pushed the door open and his eyes were immediately occupied by a rosy-cheeked middle-aged man wearing a navy lapel coat, with energetic eyes.
Lifting his gaze and looking carefully, he could clearly see that Yang Huaping was younger than Tang Yanshan in appearance.
Coupled with Toshiro's eyebrows and upright posture, one can imagine that the man was also a handsome man when he was young.
However, sizing up was sizing up, and Xu Yun did not forget to take the initiative to introduce his identity.
"Hello, Professor Yang."
"My name is Xu Yun. Professor Tang asked me to come here to find you."
Yang Huaping saw that Xu Yun was still thinking about his identity. After hearing the name and Tang Yanshan's relationship, Yang Huaping immediately realized that his face was filled with enthusiasm.
"You must be that Xu Yun, sit down quickly."
Faced with Yang Huaping's greeting, Xu Yun no longer hesitated and immediately sat down in front of Yang Huaping.
As soon as my butt touched the chair, Yang Huaping's voice sounded in my ears again.
"I have always heard from your Dean Qin that the Department of Mathematics at Beijing University has recruited a good candidate this year, and today I finally saw it with my own eyes."
Xu Yun originally maintained a humble expression, but after hearing these words, he suddenly showed a little embarrassment.
I really didn’t expect to hear Dean Qin’s name wherever I went.
Really a top talker.
I can't help but talk to others about anything.
It's just that if he fails to win the trophy when the time comes, he will not only be embarrassed in the department.
I'm afraid the whole school will be talking about it.
Not wanting Yang Huaping to talk too much about this matter, Xu Yun simply took the initiative to change the subject.
"Professor Yang, I have registered now. When can I officially start participating in the research of the project?"
"Don't worry about it now. I'll have someone take you to the laboratory later to have a clear understanding of our project and what you want to do." Yang Huaping was very satisfied with Xu Yun's fighting spirit, and the smile on his face showed when he took over the explanation. Never disappeared.
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something and spoke again.
"Old Tang has already told me about your situation. This time, just treat it as a way to familiarize yourself with the research process."
"Gives you some practical experience in mathematical modeling."
"As for the research, you don't have to worry. You just need to complete the tasks assigned to you on time. Anyway, it's not very difficult and your level is enough for it."
"I will work hard Professor Yang."
Xu Yun listened to all Yang Huaping's words. Although he answered sincerely on the surface, he was actually somewhat bitter in his heart.
According to the requirements of advanced tasks, the extent of new ability improvement is directly proportional to the contribution to the research project.
In other words, the greater his contribution to this research, the greater the improvement in his ability when completing the problem.
Now judging from Professor Yang's words, he shouldn't be assigned too many tasks.
In this way, it may be difficult for new abilities to be substantially improved until the project is completed.
It’s really a way to become familiar with the process and gain experience.
But now I have finally waited for such an opportunity to participate in the research.
You definitely can’t just give up just because you want to.
What's more, he took the initiative to apply for the opportunity with Tang Yanshan. If he quit midway, he would definitely not be able to explain it.
After thinking about these things clearly, he decided to stabilize first and then see if there were other ways to improve his contribution.
In the following time, Yang Huaping did not try to persuade Xu Yun to stay, but called one of his graduate students to take Xu Yun to the laboratory.
…
The Key Laboratory of Low-Dimensional Quantum of the Institute of Physics is located in an unattractive building in the northwest corner, but it contains equipment worth hundreds of millions, which is unmatched by other institutes.
"An optical blackbody is an ideal optical absorber, with a nearly 100% absorption rate for incident photons. Currently, the most ideal one is a carbon nanotube vertical array blackbody."
Outside the building where the laboratory is located, Yang Huaping's graduate student Jiang Yunxu was introducing the content of the research topic to Xu Yun.
"We found that the vertical array of carbon nanotubes is not only an ideal optical absorber, but may also have an absorption coefficient close to 100% for incident electrons."
"We are currently studying an ideal planar electron blackbody that can prove this point."
"As long as the calculation formula for electron radiation is successfully derived and experimentally verified through electron energy spectrum measurements, the paper can be officially concluded and published."
The two chatted along the way, and soon they successfully entered the laboratory.
This was the first time Xu Yun saw a laboratory of this level. While listening to Jiang Yunxu's explanation, his eyes were curiously looking at the surrounding environment.
The interior of the laboratory is essentially the same as the teaching building, except that the classrooms have been eliminated and turned into departments with various signs. From time to time, researchers wearing white coats can be seen coming in and out.
At this time, when the two of them walked to the door of a department, Jiang Yunxu stopped and said with a smile: "We are here. This is where the members of our research team work."
Following Jiang Yunxu, he pushed the door open and walked in. Suddenly, many special analytical instruments came into view.
Some of them even look like printers.
But in terms of value alone, it is definitely unmatched by any number of printers.
After getting acquainted with Jiang Yunxu, Xu Yun was no longer reserved and immediately asked him about the most important things to him.
"Senior Brother Jiang, you don't know what my specific job is, so you should tell me first."
