Hammer of Technology

"That's unnecessary, it was actually arranged yesterday. My wife was delighted when she learned that she would be able to go to the Jungfraujoch today. Thank you again, Mr. George!"

"Should be!"

……

For Cern, the restart of LHC, which has been shut down for two years for expansion and maintenance, is also a big event.

It's not that when lhc is down, it doesn't need to work.In fact, during the two-year shutdown period, many physicists were even busier. After all, there were too many data to be processed. Each paper had to find useful data for its own project and discard unnecessary data. This is a large amount of engineering.

Turning on means that items that have not been fully verified can continue to search for new evidence.

Moreover, the newly upgraded lhc has a higher sensor sensitivity, and the collected data is naturally more accurate.

Especially the upgrade of lhcb, which is a sensor specially designed to find and observe bottom quarks and antiquarks. After the accuracy is improved, it may be possible to find the influence of antiquarks on proton spin, and even solve the mystery of proton spin.

Of course, these studies have to be postponed, because in the next half month, the data after lhc operation will belong to Ningwei's next project. If other people need it, it depends on whether Ningwei is willing to give it.

This is agreed in the contract.

The start-up ceremony is actually very simple, and then the engineers start the collider.During this period, the energy level will be continuously adjusted, and the collision speed of proton beams will maintain 3200 million collisions per second for more than ten hours.

Standing in the control room, you can't see the thrilling scene, you can only see the constantly jumping curves through the computer screen.But Ning Wei can imagine how intense and interesting the collision of these tiny particles will be in the hair-thin tunnel...

After all, a billion dollars, he bought a lot of data...

This deal... worth it!

After learning that Ningwei was going out again in the afternoon, Edwin, who had been with Ningwei all the time, felt very relieved to see the satisfied smile on the customer's face.

One billion, it's worth it!

Well, win-win!

460 There Are More Solutions Than Problems

The snow-capped mountains of Jungfraujoch are beautiful; the water of Lake Lucerne is very clear, and the lion statues are exquisite; the large fountain in the port of Geneva is indeed spraying very high; the swans of Lake Zurich are very elegant; Climb up through the defecation tunnel and shoot straight into the nobleman's ass...

Ning Wei had a lot of fun this month, and felt that he had added a lot of boring and rich knowledge.

For example, fines for speeding on Swiss highways are determined according to income. If you have no money, you will be fined less. The minimum is 60 euros. If you are rich, you will be fined very high. It is said that the highest has reached 70 euros.What's more interesting is that from Sunday to Saturday, the amount of fines varies slightly on different days...

This even caused Ning Wei to drive a car, and then fully experience how the Swiss traffic control system defines income and the formula for calculating fines, so that he can easily calculate the rich man who was fined 70 euros for speeding once. What is the approximate income.

Sure enough, as long as you go out for a walk, you can find the joy of computing everywhere in your life.

Unlike Ning Wei, Jiang is really addicted to the mountains and rivers here.

The two people have completely different concerns about this trip, so they reaped double happiness.For Ningwei, the greatest sense of satisfaction comes from psychological satisfaction.

On the night of the awards ceremony in March this year, after being drunk, he dragged his wife to make a drunk promise, which fully proved that he is a man who keeps his word, the kind who spits and nails!

Of course, how much manpower and material resources are spent in this is a matter of opinion.

After all, he came under the banner of an urgent scientific research task, otherwise it would affect the progress of human scientific research.But after coming here, the time spent in the neighborhood is no more than two days. When it comes to scientific research tasks, the time to go deep into the interior is no more than ten hours, which also includes social time inside the Nuclear Research Center and explaining to Professor Luo Zhiqiang. The time of his original theory.

Thinking about it carefully, this is really too much.

So after receiving a call from Edwin George, the other party tactfully told him that he had fully fulfilled the previous contract agreement and was about to start the normal internal test plan arrangement, Ning Wei discussed it with Liu Wei, and then decided to go back first. A visit to Merlin, treat these people to a meal, and leave frankly.

By the way, Luo Zhiqiang can be taken back.

Yanbei University has already said hello, and will send other professors to take over Luo Zhiqiang's previous work.It's just that the graduate students who followed Lao Luo were wronged for the time being, and they may need to re-plan their graduation project.

The groundwork has been laid here before, and after a month, thousands of terabytes of data must be analyzed by experienced people.Professor Luo Zhiqiang, who participated in the whole process of project research, is naturally the best candidate, which makes sense everywhere.And I told Edwin George before that if there are scholars who are willing to go to China to help this research result, I would rather not refuse.

Of course, there is still none.

After all, his theory has not even been published publicly. Scientists with academic pursuits will not waste this time, and those without academic pursuits will most likely look down on it.So it is reasonable to only take Luo Zhiqiang away for the time being.

As for Jack Ness, he was not included in the invitation, and in fact could not be invited.

The olive branch has already been thrown out. This amazingly talented employee who has no interest in academics is said to have gone to the Bay Area of ​​New York for vacation a few days ago after applying for annual leave. The rational side of the scientist made him not quit his job directly. But apparently soon.

Perhaps many ordinary people sneer at tens of millions of assets, thinking that the rich can at least calculate their net worth by 2000 million yuan. In fact, for the general public, as long as they have a net worth of [-] to [-] million US dollars, they can live well enough. .

Even for Jack Nice.After all, even if he worked step-by-step in his current job, he would not be able to earn so much in his previous life.

Typical money changes lives.

Ning Wei didn't care whether Jack Nice would become good friends with Bernie Cushing.After all, March is familiar with this Wall Street capital, so I would rather believe that March can handle this matter very well.

In the matter of coordinating the relationship between people through the network, March has never disappointed Ningwei.

It can be seen from the fact that as shrewd as Jack Nice is still convinced that March's true identity is the white gloves of many hidden rich people.

I would rather not bother with these messy things, so as not to be troublesome.

In this European execution, his only outstanding feature was probably his sincere thank you speech before the banquet.

"Thank you very much for being able to attend this dinner today, and what's more, I would like to thank you for your support to my work this month. In particular, I would like to thank Mr. Edwin George for helping us to be busy with this project and solving many problems related to approval. Problems in this area have accelerated the efficiency of project advancement.”

"This is a very perfect cooperation, and I believe this is definitely not the only cooperation between Huaxia Artificial Intelligence Research Center and CERN. With this cooperation as the basis, I believe we can explore more and more in-depth cooperation models in the future .For me personally, this trip to Switzerland has left me with a lot of good memories.”

"In terms of academic research, I have reason to believe that this perfect cooperation may bring many surprises to the world in the near future. Perhaps until today our cooperation is drawing to a close, many people still don't know the specific project For details, today I can also directly tell you that this experiment is to verify a new theory that may subvert everyone's understanding of high-energy physics and quantum physics."

"Our new theory gives deeper thinking to Schrödinger's equation, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, general relativity, and even a series of theories that have influenced the entire era. If we can prove through the data obtained in this experiment This theory may have laid a theoretical foundation for the unification of microcosm and macrocosm. All of you here have made great contributions to this theory.”

"Finally, please allow me to once again thank CERN for its support to Huaxia Artificial Intelligence Research Center, and once again thank Mr. Edwin George for his help. When this cooperation has made critical progress, I will invite everyone to Huaxia. Let’s witness this miracle that belongs to the era together. Finally, thank you again for your efforts, thank you!”

……

After speaking briefly for about 3 minutes, the various thanks piled up with a bunch of rhetoric became the talk of the users within a week after dinner.

There is no other reason. For the high-energy physicists here, Ning Wei's so-called thanks are all pretending to be x.

A mathematician who has made extraordinary achievements in the field of artificial intelligence went to the field of high-energy physics to give a speech, telling these physicists that the theory he created redefines the Schrödinger equation, Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle and general relativity, by the way It can also unify the micro and macro physics...

This is probably the feeling of everyone, it is probably as ridiculous as a social humanist suddenly announced to the world that he invented a perpetual motion machine.

It’s really not that everyone wants to bury their heads and do nothing. Many mathematicians in history are also excellent theoretical physicists themselves, such as Newton, Descartes, Lagrange, and Einstein may also be included.

But that was in history. In that era, the research on mathematics and physics was relatively rough.The division of labor in this era is too detailed, and physics is no longer the era when only the study of mechanics was needed.

High-energy physics, mechanics, optics, thermals, acoustics, plasma, space physics, astrophysics, cosmology, quantum physics... A mechanics can be divided into statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, statistical mechanics...

The modern scientific system has already been subdivided to the point where it may take a genius to spend his whole life studying one direction.

And Ning Wei hadn't even published any papers on physics before coming here.In fact, the papers published by Ning Wei in these years are still stuck on a paper on artificial intelligence system and chip processing system three years ago, and published in Chinese journals in March, not even published in English in March International On the board...

In other words, Ningwei's purely academic influence has actually been declining over the years.It is nothing more than that the previous papers are still frequently cited to support the reputation of academic experts.

It's not that he is too harsh on Ning Wei, after all, everyone knows that most of Ning Wei's energy has been devoted to Ning Xin these years.But academia and technology are two fields after all, if this guy doesn't come to step in, naturally no one will look down on this former academic master.But you, who are engaged in artificial intelligence and chips, come to point and point at the field of theoretical physics, then it is your fault.

As a result, countless jokes about Ningwei spread internally.

Yes, don't underestimate the ability of these physicists to make jokes. They are unwilling to write jokes purely because they don't care. When encountering such things that challenge authority, they are definitely no worse than professional jokers.

such as:

"There are no physical problems in this world that Ning Wei can't solve. If there are, it must be because Edwin George didn't follow Ning Wei."

This sentence is good because it also brought the supervisor who arranged the whole thing. After all, many physicists in the office are still very dissatisfied with Ning Wei who can jump in the line to do the project after spending money...

"Physics has finally ushered in theoretical unity after thousands of years of division. As for how to unify? The father of artificial intelligence unified with his mouth!"

"Rich people all over the world, your spring is here. Now you only need [-] million US dollars to let the supervisor tailor a scientific research plan for you, and by the way, let the physicists all over the world cheer for you and achieve the pinnacle of life , comes with a video, a permanent commemoration! Isn’t this more face-saving than buying an LV? What are you waiting for? Hurry up and sell, the world’s top luxury brands are waiting for you!”

"Schrödinger, Heisenberg, and Einstein played cards with a Chinese. Schrödinger said to Einstein, I support you! Then he threw out the Schrödinger equation. Heisenberg said that light is a particle, and then threw out Heisenberg was not sure about the principle, and Einstein said that God does not play dice, and then he took out the theory of relativity. The Chinese looked at the cards in their hands, touched the cat next to them, and then took out a stack of US dollars from their pockets At this time, Edwin George, who was standing behind the four of them and serving them, immediately took out a gun from his pocket when he saw the stack of dollars..."

……

There are so many articles, and even many scientists began to share these jokes directly on their respective Facebook pages, and even changed them into comics...

Obviously, in view of Edwin George's contribution in this cooperation, everyone has also given him an extremely important position, at least in the comics, the most excessive is probably in a cartoon, this guy has a quilt around his neck A dollar dog leash...

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight...

Of course, these have no effect on Ning Wei who has safely returned to China.

Basically don't read the information you don't want to see.

But it made Edwin George, who was still in office, a little dizzy. After all, he really made money from this business.

In fact, being scolded is second to none. The key is that when the negative news about this person is everywhere on the Internet, his supervisor position will not be stable. Less than the trust of the more than 2600 physicists who work on it is something to be reckoned with.

Fortunately, Edwin George really made money this time, even if his position is really lost, it's not a big problem.

But looking at it now, the management committee didn't really want to move him. After all, this time he not only made money, but also helped him make money.As a pure scientific research organization, it can get half of the budget through a single project, which has never happened in history.From this point of view, as a manager, he is not afraid to praise such a supervisor...

After all, the equipment is all gold-swallowing beasts. Physicists only care about their research projects and data. Whether the imported projects have delayed their precious time, but as managers, they must also consider the operation of the entire organization.In recent years, when the global economy has been stagnant, and member states have become more and more strict in appropriation and approval, and are becoming more and more stingy, it is really a skill to find such a rich and powerful wrongdoer.

Not to mention that the main reason for this matter is that Ning Wei likes to talk nonsense.If it weren't for those declarations, in fact, everyone hasn't reacted so much.Therefore, the opinion given by the committee is probably a cold treatment.After fully appeasing Edwin George, I hope he can make persistent efforts and do more business like this.

As for things like being scolded, after a while, these physicists have had enough trouble, and they will naturally do their research with peace of mind, and the scolding will naturally disappear, it is nothing more than being wronged for a while...

In order to ensure that Mr. George would not be too troublesome, the committee even granted the supervisor a one-month vacation, so that he would not have to face those logisticians for the time being, which would be embarrassing...

So there are always more solutions than problems!

461 Crazy!

Ning Wei was mentally prepared for the ridicule of the entire physics community.

In fact, he also knew that there was absolutely no need to talk so much on the day of the banquet, and he was not very keen on doing things that forcibly lowered his intelligence.But there was no way, from a safety point of view, he had to stand up and attract a wave of firepower.

Human attention is limited, so it is better for cern's management to deal with the aftermath than to check the data after everyone withdraws.Ningwei is assured of March's abilities, but he never underestimates people's abilities.

Facts have already proved that no matter how meticulous the technology is, as long as it is done, it will always leave some clues, just to see if it will be discovered.

At this time, the ignorant speech diverted everyone's attention, and the chance of some things being discovered was much smaller.The more jokes and jokes there are, the easier it is to take it lightly.

As long as people can look away, they will find that people's status has reached a certain level, and such things as face or reputation don't need to be so concerned.

Those who slander are often unable to decide what kind of life you live; and those who can decide your future don't need to use such indecent means of slander.

A group of foreigners can make fun of them however they like...

To be honest, anyway, he couldn't lose a hair because of those jokes.

It would be even better if foreign graduate students who study artificial intelligence are ashamed to cite his papers when writing papers.Under the current circumstances, it may be difficult to graduate.

After all, it is still very difficult to find another way. Most of the methods of adjusting parameters in the past are not recognized now.The emergence of March has changed the entire expectation of artificial intelligence technology.

This is why even though the employment situation in the overall environment is not very good, the students in the Ning class are extremely sought-after.

Almost all companies researching artificial intelligence are willing to pay a lot of money, whether domestic or foreign.

Yes, although Ning Wei is very unpopular, his students are still very popular, and this is actually enough.

Of course, Ning Wei actually didn't have time to pay attention to those messy jokes or sarcasm.

I traveled for a whole month, and I had a lot of fun, but the whole September has passed, and there are many things to deal with when I come back.

Not to mention the subsequent work of data processing.

Although it was verbally said to form a special team to analyze and process the data obtained from cern, that was just an excuse.After communicating with Luo Zhiqiang, this professor has only a half-knowledge of Ning Wei's ideas, let alone other people.

So the data analysis still has to be done by myself with the help of March.

In fact, these days Ningwei is indeed rooted in the base of Huaxia Artificial Intelligence R&D Center, facing countless data selected in March every day.About half of the time is spent on processing freshly released new data every day, and the other half is used to analyze and study data from previous inventories.

The difference between the two is still very big.

With the advancement of technology, the upgrade of detectors, the improvement of sensitivity and algorithm, the data fed back are becoming more and more accurate.After a busy month of work like this, one person and one cat finally achieved phased results.

"In March, sort out all the statistical data of energy zones above 2026tev after May 5."

Ning Wei gave instructions.

It’s not that the previous data is not needed. It was mainly in 2013 that the lhc of cern began to upgrade. Before that, the highest record of lhc’s highest collision energy level was only 8tev. The sub-collider has the ability to knock out 2016tev.Next is the suspension of operation in 5, replacing linac14 that has been running for 2018 years with linac4, and then until 40, a new generation of lhc will go online, and it will be maintained again a year later, until it starts running again this year...

There are a lot of raw data available, but the lhc at that time was still a bit behind. The lhc that will be re-run after 2026 has been renamed the high-brightness lhc. In addition to accelerating the particle energy to a higher energy level, it also improves the precision of the infinitesimal, and the improvement of the precision also means that more things that have not been discovered before can be discovered Phenomenon.

At this time, Ning Wei had obviously discovered something interesting from the data sorted out in March.

Ning Wei carefully read the dense data flow, and began to discuss with March in the system: "There is a difference in the data before and after, so that the central value of mw is shifted by 10-100mev from the standard model?"

"Meow...before it was the data before the correction of the Atlas detector, and then it was the data after the correction."

"Oh, this should correct pd according to the property that the normal differential cross section produced by bosons in the drell-yan process is proportional to pdf."
