Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Over the next month, the life of the ark has been very regular, basically listening to two lectures every day, eating dinner after free movement, either playing pool with Brother Yan in the activity room on the R1 floor, or playing cardboard games in the activity room next door and a few outsiders.

This is probably the most fulfilling month he's had in a while.

Not only can new knowledge be learned every day, but it is also hard to see in books.

The last time I had that feeling, it was at the Princeton Academic Conference. But that was just a short day, after all, he was picking on twins for the next few days. And this time, it's been a month.

However, leisure time is always short.

Soon at the end of the month, the original relaxed timetable tightened up.

Lynn Evans, Head of the LHCb International Cooperation Group, met in the largest conference room in CERN, summarizing the reports submitted by the study groups and finalizing the experimental approach.

Almost half of the cattle in physics are sitting in this room.

It was also an honour for the Ark boat to attend the meeting as an intern.

This time, however, he did not have the opportunity to take the floor, but simply sat by the Reverend Lu.

In the final part of the meeting, physicists from various laboratories provided additional advice on individual details of the experiment, and Evans responded on behalf of LHCb.

And of course, it wasn't just physicists, it was people from all walks of life, and the media that followed the experiment. It has almost become the practice for CERN meetings of similar specifications to be given more than a dozen minutes after the end of questions by professionals.

And these questions are generally interesting...

For example, a British journalist stood up.

“… Hello Mr. Evans, In an interview with Otto Rossler, a retired professor of chemistry at the University of Munich, Mr. Rossler expressed concern about the collider experiment, saying that the CERN's ongoing experiment could lead to the formation of a planet inside the Earth… Could you give the public a reasonable explanation for something like a black hole? ”

In the face of the journalist's ordeal, Mr. Evans had also experienced hundreds of battles and responded with skill.

“In the 37 replies we have sent to Mr. Rossler on this issue, we have indicated, one by one, where his basic mistakes lie. Of course, we also know that most people like him don't listen. Thousands of scholars around the world sweat for this machine, and we know what we're talking about ourselves, unlike this guy. Okay, next. ”

Another reporter stood up.

“Could the theory generated by the Johnson Collider experiment be the theoretical basis for the time machine? ”

Evans: "Our job is to test the correctness of the standard model, to study the basic particles that make up the substance, there is no plan to study the time machine for now… I have said it countless times, this subject has been transferred to SERN, next. ”

“ …… ”

Listen to the strange shape of the problem, the mood of the old gentleman is also secretly admired in the heart of the ark. If someone entertains themselves with so many stupid questions, they certainly don't have the patience to answer them one by one.

At this time, sitting next to Master Lu, he slightly missed his head and said to the two disciples, Ark and Yan Xinxue.

“After today we may be a little busy, you two pay attention to adjusting the time. ”

Yan Xinxue nodded: “Good professor. ”

As soon as he heard there was a mission, Ark Zhou came to the spirit and asked, "Is there a mission? ”

“Of course,” Nodded Master Lu, “we're not here to see the fuss. ”

What needs to be done specifically is not detailed here and described by the Lu Academician, but the ship is not in a hurry. After all, sooner or later, these things are going to tell themselves.

……

At the end of the meeting, the Johnson Collider experiment entered its final preparatory phase.

Intensive efforts were made to prepare for the experiment, not only by the physicists of CERN, but also by the French and Swiss special forces that had been stationed in nearby towns since when.

In fact, three days ago, this state of siege began.

Soldiers temporarily stationed at the entrance to the town will conduct an inventory of almost every vehicle entering the town.

As for the entry and exit points of the Johnson Collider tunnel, the checkpoints that had been set up had been temporarily blocked, and irrelevant persons were denied entry and attempts to approach them would be dissuaded immediately.

So it was about a week later, and it was pretty soon the day the experiment was restarted.

Brother Yan borrowed a car and took a landing boat to the scene on the side of Gex District, in the French province of Ann, known as the "North Zone” in the mouth of CERN staff.

It is worth mentioning that, in fact, the entire experiment did not use access to the Hadron Collider, and several professional staff went down to inspect the pit tunnel, confirming that there were no abnormalities, and then reported the situation. The data were collected by researchers stationed at the site by pressing a button from the CERN headquarters several dozen kilometres away, which was also visible to those sitting several dozen kilometres away.

However, according to Brother Yan, it would be a shame not to go to the scene to see if the work you have done is actually done. He also borrowed a car, so the ship agreed to his proposal to go for a walk.

As they approached the northern sector, they happened to meet the interrogated soldiers, but were released shortly after the relevant documents were presented.

Sitting in the car, the ark looked back at the checkpoint behind its eyes and asked casually: "Are they here to protect the Hadron Collider? ”

Brother Yan drove and answered casually: "Do you still need protection from colliders? Well, this may seem like it to outsiders, but they're not protecting colliders, they're citizens of both countries. ”

“… what? ”

With the steering wheel in place, Brother Yan shrugged: “Every year it is said that the black hole created by the Johnson collision mechanism could destroy the whole of Europe, and every year the experiment on the Johnson collision machine is restarted with protests. This year may have been Paris, then France sent a force to show that they can control the situation in all accidents… It sounds like French humor, but that seems to be the case. ”

The Ark couldn't help but ask: "How could anyone believe this nonsense? ”

“Because CERN is always in trouble, the unreliable press spokespersons who are invited always say unreliable things at press conferences. I forgot which year, as if it were '08 or' 07, their press spokesperson joked proudly at the press conference that the upgraded LHC could even create a miniature black hole with a lead ion collision, but it broke down automatically before it could interact with the outside particles... I guess he just wanted to show off how advanced LHC was, but the media covered his first half. ”

“And then what? ”

Brother Yan laughed and said: “Later, they succeeded in making a big news story. Almost everyone comes here every year to protest, and some environmental protection organizations even put into action, trying to sneak into orbit and sabotage the experiment, so much so that CERN had to hire a large number of firefighters, tired of getting those idiots out of orbit, and then ask how they got in... and it's only a little bit better recently. ”

Hearing all this crap, the ark was so dark.

Diving into the Hadron Collider, that's really annoying, I can't bear to live.

It seems that only one person in history has been hit by a bundle of particles from a collider, and this brother-in-law, although he has saved his life, will be as miserable as the Russian veteran who returned from Chernobyl for the rest of his life.

Not only the high intensity radiation generated in the experiment, but also the more lethal risk of hypoxia, because the accelerator's magnetic tracks are all soaked in liquid helium, which quickly fills up space once a leak occurs, depending on how far you can run and how long you can hold your gas.

In a sense, this is also why the Ark did not choose task 3 to make history.
