Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

“One final difficulty… Regarding the mystery of the trail of the site of the supernova, this proposition comes from the recommendation of renowned astrophysicist James Piebles. ”

IMCRC headquarters conference room.

Standing at the round table in the conference room is Professor Whittle from the Brookhaven National Laboratory.

Seeing him pinch a paper in his hand, he glanced unconsciously and hastily at the ark not far away, and said slightly nervously.

“The ruins of the supernova are the tombstones of the stars, the remains of the stars after they explode at the end of the evolutionary process. They fluctuate in the galaxy, like a bright flame in the night sky, with lethal and fascinating charm...”

“What is puzzling, however, is that, based on supernova outburst rates and the estimation of star formation rates, there should be some 20,000 to 30,000 supernova remnants in our galaxy that we can observe, but in fact we have only observed less than 300 so far. ”

“Ninety-nine percent of the remains of supernovas are like missing, out of our sight. ”

“Research on the ruins of supernovae will have an important impact on our research in areas such as heavy elements and the evolution of galaxies, and if we can find where the missing ruins of supernovae have gone, perhaps we can reveal deeper physics mysteries…”

Professor Whittle then went on to professionally describe some of the existing advances or conjectures in this research direction, as well as the views of the Brookhaven National Laboratory on the subject.

As he said, research into astrophysics and high-energy physics would be greatly facilitated if the causes of the disappearance of supernova sites could be revealed and even where the energy and matter that had disappeared could be found.

After listening to this lengthy statement, the ark pondered for a moment and stamped a random mark on the notebook.

Attention was focused on the ark from the beginning, and when Professor Whittle noticed the action of the ark, the tight old face finally relaxed a little and his heart relaxed.

Professor James Piebles, the cattle recently dug up by the Brookhaven National Laboratory, was most worried about the fact that the Ark had deliberately rejected the proposal from the Brookhaven National Laboratory because of past events that had given them tiny shoes.

However, it now appears that the Ark is clearly not interested in doing so, and then he himself will gauge the heart of a gentleman with a small measure.

While frustrated by the increasingly humble presence of the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the IMCRC, Whittle has no better way of dealing with such a situation than to put up with it for the time being.

Looking slightly bowing back to his seat, Professor Whittle closed the notebook in his hand, pushed away the armrest of the chair and stood up, clearing his voice and saying.

“This is it for the first time. ”

“A total of 522 challenges are in the pipeline, 22 more than we thought. ”

“The final result is that when the final ballot is held, there will probably be two more meetings these past few days, on Wednesdays and Fridays, respectively. ”

A round of applause rang in the conference room.

Faced with the rising physicists, the ark nodded softly and declared the meeting adjourned.

……

After the meeting, the Ark simply packed up what was on the table and returned to its own office.

However, just as he had just sat down and had not even warmed the chair, a knock had come from the door, followed by a young assistant, who hurried in from the outside.

“Mr. President, there is a strange man who would like to see you. ”

Strange people?

The ark raised its eyebrows and asked curiously.

“Who?”

The assistant looked embarrassed and said.

“His name is Felix and he claims to be a professor of physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He claims to have been treated unfairly in the IMCRC and hopes to meet you. ”

He didn't want to bother the Ark with these little things, but that guy was so stubborn, he stood in the lobby with a suitcase, he couldn't persuade anyone.

And the guy was a bit of an identity, and it wasn't easy to throw him out, so the front desk downstairs of the building could only call the superiors to ask for instructions, and finally, the matter just got here one story at a time.

“Professor Felix? ”

I didn't remember the name at all, and the ark frowned for a while and said.

“… If he wants to discuss some academic issues with me, tell him I can take half an hour at 3: 00 p.m. If he's just going to bother me with something boring, you let him give him the contact details of Secretary-General Rowe. ”

“Okay, okay. ”

Looking at the assistant running away from the office, the ark did not say much, and continued to look over the minutes of the meeting in hand.

Lunch was served with a sandwich, and he stayed in the office until about 3 p.m., when the ark arrived at the cafe downstairs and met Mr. Felix, who called himself a professor at MIT.

From the look of his dusty servant and the luggage case he had at his disposal, the ark could presumably speculate that he had arrived shortly after disembarking from the plane.

Moreover, most even airline tickets are bought on a temporary basis.

“Professor Felix? Nice to meet you. ”

Some looked vigilantly at the ark, and Professor Felix cautioned to the bottom.

“Me too. ”

He couldn't help but subconsciously lowered his posture after seeing the ark itself, even though he was angry in the lobby downstairs two hours ago.

There's no way.

After all, this big man is so awesome.

Starting with the unified theory of strong electricity, to the theory of hyperspace, the results of research that shocked a world and the problems that plagued hundreds of millions of people, it was as easy as breathing in front of him.

And I'm afraid I don't even need to mention my own accomplishments if I'm with him.

Looking at Professor Felix, who suddenly shrunk around and kept his mouth shut, the ark stunned for a moment and laughed and said.

“Would you like a drink? ”

“I've ordered a cup of coffee and it hasn't arrived. ”

“Really? Give me a cup of black coffee,” the ark nodded to the waiter, then looked at Professor Felix, and continued with joy, “I'm curious what made you so eager to come here from far away Boston to see me. ”

'Cause I need an explanation! ”The divine color suddenly got excited, Professor Felix's shoulders shaking, sitting straight from his chair, staring at the ark and saying," Why did you sieve my thesis in the primaries? ”

“This is the collective opinion of the jury, and I have merely exercised my right to cast a sacred vote, and if it does not pass, then naturally it is because it is not so fitting-”

“You haven't even looked at my thesis! I've heard of it! After you went from Jinling to Shanghai, you spent only three days understanding those topics," Felix said with excitement, "If you didn't intend to take our research seriously from the beginning, why did you send me an invitation? ”

Three days?

The Ark laughed embarrassingly, but didn't tell him that it took him only two days, faster than rumored.

Looking at Professor Felix with excitement on his face, he said.

“I have never written a paper, and I can swear on my honor that every choice I make stands as an academic. ”

“Really?” Felix looked straight at the ark, his face full of suspicion, "Are you sure three days is enough for you to read all the papers? ”

“Of course, I even remember your paper," The Ark smiled lightly, "explaining the source of neutrino mass by introducing heavy Fermi field triplets into the standard model. In other words, the application of the Type-IIISeesaw mechanism in the study of the origin of neutron mass, am I right? ”

This is what the Ark just remembered.

Though I had no impression of the name Felix, immediately after hearing him explain his intention, the Ark matched the name with the paper he had read a few days earlier.

Professor Felix suddenly held his breath when he remembered his thesis.

Soon, however, he thought he was already in this café, waiting at least two hours for him. In the meantime, he had every time to investigate his own information and go over that paper quickly.

“... did you look it up before you came? ”

Looking at this guy's apparently distrustful expression on his face, the Ark couldn't help but laugh a little.

Did you check it out before you came?

I'm sorry, he's not that free.

“Whether or not I just checked, I did read your paper, and in my impression… I did vote against it. As for the reason, naturally, it's because there's really nothing worth studying. ”

“How is that possible! ”

“Don't argue with me yet," said Professor Felix, who was excited to get up, and the ark laughed, indicating that he was not excited until he sat back in his seat, "even if it was for you to come across the sea and see me, I have to tell you why I did it. ”

At this point, the waiter at the cafe brought a cup of coffee and walked this way.

Looking at the hot cup of coffee on the table, the ark stretched out its index finger and gently touched the wall, then looked at the waiter and politely said.

“Can you lend me a whiteboard from the next office? There is also a marker pen. ”

“Yes, sir. ”

With the waiter walking away, the ark looked at Professor Felix, a fog, and continued.

“In words alone, you must have 10,000 reasons to rebut me. ”

“In that case, I'll show you. ”
