Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

In June, a major event took place in the chemical community.

Or maybe two.

In the latest issue of JACS, two heavyweight papers were published.

In particular, Professor Stanley's research section, A Caged Carbon Molecular and Sulfur Monopolymer Composite Positive Pole Materials, not only in the material sciences, caused an earthquake in the entire field of new energy.

A month ago, after the patent number came down, the Materials Laboratory at the University of Binghamton sent out relevant information, and now Materials and Industry finally saw the true story of this thesis.

While there are doubts as to whether Professor Stanley has really addressed the technology of lithium-sulfur batteries, there is general optimism in academia.

After all, Professor Stanley himself is a big bull in the lithium field, and with ExxonMobil's support, the paper is still quite credible.

A number of research institutes have begun to repeat the experimental results.

Maybe it won't be long before lithium-sulfur batteries get out of the lab and completely change people's lives...

Another heavyweight paper is the controversial Theoretical Model of Electrochemical Interface Structure.

Until then, the theoretical chemistry community did not have a well-developed theoretical model that could thoroughly elucidate the micro substance of the various electrochemical processes occurring on the "interface”.

If this theoretical model proves to be effective, it will contribute to advancing the study of the electrochemical interface structure across the theoretical chemical community.

However, this theory is too novel, and even quite advanced.

It is precisely for this reason that the publication of this paper has generated widespread controversy in the theoretical chemistry community.

It is no exaggeration to say that JACS would never have been so easy to write without the weight of the Crawford Mathematics Award and the Adams Chemical Award, and reviewers and academic editors were indeed unsure.

While mathematical propositions can be judged true or false by logical harmony, research outside the mathematical field, particularly involving the application level, cannot simply take "logical harmony” as the main reason for judging propositions true or false.

And the hardest part is that few people can analyze the mathematical model of an ark from a mathematical standpoint.

It may not be difficult to find a mathematician in theoretical chemistry, but it is quite difficult to find a Crawford Prize level mathematician in chemistry.

Testing by argument of fact sounds like a good idea, but it is still difficult.

After all, beyond this, not everything in the lab can be tortured. Especially for molecular dynamics simulations, even rents are inexpensive.

“Anton” has dominated the computational chemistry industry for so many years, not least because he doesn't have a single opponent.

However, given the influence of the Ark in mathematics and materials science, many people have begun to test the reliability of this theory.

These include scholars in the direction of theoretical chemistry, as well as in applied mathematics.

It is rumored that the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science (MPG) in Germany has established an interdisciplinary panel that brings together several scholars in the direction of mathematics, chemistry and condensed physics to test this theoretical model proposed by the Ark.

Perhaps it won't take long for everything to fall apart.

But now it seems that the controversy will have to last for a while.

But the ark itself, at the centre of the vortex, is much more calm than outside discourse, and even hastily carries out the next experiment.

Just on the third day of the new issue of JACS, the second topic he studied in collaboration with the D.E. Shaw Institute came to an end, as did the molecular dynamics simulation of the interface between carbon sulfur materials and organic matter electrolytic solutions.

After packing these millions of dollars worth of experimental data to Yang Xu, far away from the Jinling Institute of Computing Materials, the Ark was preparing to shut down its notebook and happened to receive a video call request from Sarot.

Probably guessed what the professor was doing to find herself, and the ark tapped into it.

Sure enough, Sarott appeared at the end of the video with a slightly awkward look on his face.

He was silent for a while before he said in a shameful tone.

“Sorry… I failed your expectations. ”

After hearing this, the Ark did not blame him too much.

“Nothing, you don't have to blame yourself, you've done what I told you to do. ”

Scientific research is not a field. The seeds planted will definitely bear fruit. There is no need to be overly harsh on researchers.

Just as Anton, a nuclear weapon in the computing world, crushed research in the same field, Professor Stanley, as director of the Institute of Materials at the University of Binghamton, had the academic resources that Sarott could not have imagined.

Coupled with the support of capital forces, if Sarott really gets the head start, it's a lottery win.

However, as the Ark initially speculated, whoever developed the technology had no impact on him.

Sarott couldn't believe looking at the ark and finally couldn't help but wonder.

“I don't understand why you look… like you don't give a shit. This is a lithium-sulfur battery project. You've invested a lot of money in it, haven't you? ”

The Ark laughed and said in a relaxed tone: "Of course, I put a lot of money in your lab, and your experiments were inspiring for HCS-1 material research, but when did I say that the caged carbon molecule was the key to solving the lithium-sulfur battery problem? ”

The moment I heard that, Sarott stunned.

Although the Ark had always instructed him to do everything possible to solve the laboratory synthesis of that caged carbon molecule, HCS-1 material was indeed a by-product of the study of which caged carbon molecule was born.

But when did the ark say that the caged carbon molecule was the key to solving the lithium-sulfur cell shuttle effect...

He suddenly realized that the ark didn't really say that.

His eyes widened, and Sarott reacted, even if he was blunt.

“Wait, you mean...”

“That caged carbon molecule is an interesting material, whether it's geometric or its physical and chemical properties. However, no matter which layer is interesting, it has nothing to do with lithium-sulfur batteries,” I threw a piece of sugar in my coffee cup, and the ark laughed and said, "As for what it does, I'll tell you later. ”

Sarott swallowed his mouth: “That is, the paper that Professor Stanley published in JACS...”

“They're probably in a hurry like ants on a hot pot right now," the ark laughed and said with a little sympathy, "but it's going to be like this, and they're having a tough time riding a tiger. ”

Similar things haven't happened.

And even if it proves problematic, Professor Stanley's thesis can be interpreted as an honest mistake, less serious than an active academic forgery.

The Ark speculated that in order to get ahead of himself, Professor Stanley probably “modified” some data so that the paper could be published as soon as possible. However, the data are not entirely fabricated and can only be described as "less reliable”.

For example, according to his mathematical model on the effects of hollow carbon sphere porosity versus specific surface area on the diffusion of polysulphur compounds, the inhibitory effect of this caged carbon molecule on the "shuttle effect” may be so slight, as was confirmed in Professor Stanley's experiments.

However, the so-called point is just a little bit.

When it comes to practical application value, it may not even be as valuable as HCS-1 published by the Ark as a phased outcome…

After learning the truth, Sarott didn't want to say anything but “bullshit."

What's a cowman?

This is the fucking cowman...

When you think you've dug the corner of the wall, you just take the pit back and lick it in your arms with excitement.

From Sarot's point of view, it is clear that all of this was arranged in advance by the Ark.

Everyone, including Ricardo, who stole the data, accidentally participated in the show, under the boss's calculations.

Had it not been for the canoe itself, he would still be covered in drums.

What Sarott did not know, however, was that the cause of the matter was simply not as complex as he had imagined.

However, I'm afraid he won't believe it even if the ark were to explain it to him in earnest...

“By the way, about that Ricardo lawsuit, drop it.” Smiling, the ark continued, "helped us do such a big favor, then grabbed his braids, a little too much. ”

It may be a bit exaggerated to say that it is a busy day, but now that the most competitive opponents have been killed, the pressure on the side of the Institute of Computing Materials in Jinling is naturally less.

Plus, seeing as he indirectly helped himself to the next level of credit, the ark was really too lazy to pursue, so the suit was dropped.

Having said that, the Ark had expected Sarot to be somewhat reluctant about his decision. Instead of showing any reluctance, he looked at himself admirably.

“Okay, boss! ”

Can't bear it, he answered later.

“Wonderful, this plan is really wonderful...”

Ark: …?

What's the plan?

What the hell?

I don't know if I'm delusional.

The Ark always felt like he misunderstood something.
