Chapter 406: Chapter 260: I haven’t attended several classes!
As it turns out.
Information travels much faster than airplanes.
When Zhao Yi arrived at the capital airport, the news had already made its way back.
There was extensive international coverage of the event, with the first report coming from the UK’s Daily Telegraph, which focused on the role of computing techniques in the discovery.
"Using his self-developed algorithm, Effective and Irrelevant Carry Filtering, Zhao Yi uncovered the signal of a new particle."
"The nuclear organization confirmed his discovery and conducted a detailed review of the data from past two experiments using this method, identifying a signal resembling that of the God particle at 125GeV."
"This could be a major breakthrough in quantum physics in the early 21st century!"
"At the same time, the official spokesman for the nuclear organization praised Zhao Yi’s techniques for computer filtering, describing them as innovative and practical, and expressed hope that similar methods will be used to discover more phenomena in the microscopic world."
"This will greatly enhance humanity’s ability to explore the quantum world... "
Germany’s Bild newspaper shifted the focus to the event itself, using a more lighthearted tone: "Zhao Yi, a young number theory expert, helps the nuclear organization discover the signal of a new particle through computational methods."
"The nuclear organization should consider introducing experts from other fields, such as biologists and philosophers, to potentially discover quantum phenomena using biological and philosophical methods."
"Regardless, the contribution of computers to quantum exploration is significant, and we may have underestimated the role of computers in various fields."
"Within the nuclear organization, computer experts are currently limited to auxiliary work, but with the creation of Zhao Yi’s new method, they may consider bringing in top-tier computer experts instead of just top physicists from around the world..."
Spain’s AS newspaper emphasized Zhao Yi’s personal story.
Zhao Yi had once been to Madrid, where he made big news in the mathematics world, drawing significant interest from Spanish media. freewebnσvel.cøm
"Zhao Yi is a recognized expert in number theory, having proven the world-renowned Hail Conjecture and created three-dimensional seismic waveform diagrams worth investigating. Additionally, he is an algorithm expert, devising the Carrying-Unrelated Filtering Method, which significantly reduces computational loads for solving Rubik’s cubes..."
"Who could have imagined that such a top mathematician and computer expert would have made this new particle discovery within the nuclear organization?"
"From now on, we can assign him a new title - a physicist, more specifically an experimental physicist, as he created a computational method that helped physicists find the predicted phenomena."
"Geniuses are multidisciplinary, skilled in both mathematics and computers, and bring their innovative thinking to the field of physics, instead of using traditional methods..."
The article concludes, "We should provide more opportunities for young people, as their ideas may break the rigidity and obsolescence of academia."
International news coverage soon reached China.
In fact, many people in the domestic academic community already knew about it, as those who participated in the nuclear organization’s work had returned more than ten days ago. They brought the news that Zhao Yi had discovered a new particle using computer techniques to analyze experimental data.
Many Chinese physicists sneered at the news.
Many considered it a joke and held it in contempt, as they knew how difficult it was to discover a new particle.
Think about it.
The nuclear organization employs hundreds, if not thousands, of workers. Each experimental test involves more than a dozen teams, many of which are composed of top physicists. Together, they analyze experimental data and conduct various research projects and reports.
And yet...
The signal of a new particle is discovered by a mathematician who relies on computer methods to help with calculations?
This sounds too unreliable.
The news circulated on domestic internet for two or three days before being quickly drowned out by other public opinion. However, to everyone’s surprise, one week later the story resurfaced with an official announcement from the nuclear organization and extensive coverage in foreign media.
Additionally, the spokesperson for the nuclear organization and two Nobel Prize-winning physicists were interviewed.
In other words, the news was now beyond doubt and could not be questioned anymore.
Those who didn’t believe it now had little choice but to do so. As researchers in physics, they were more amazed than anyone else.
Everyone wanted to know how Zhao Yi accomplished this feat.
It was only after reading detailed reports that they reluctantly accepted the news, mainly because Zhao Yi had used a computational filtering method, which he had created himself and was recognized worldwide as a top-level algorithm applicable in various fields.
Now it had been applied to the field of physics...
Could it be acceptable?
Regardless, the discovery of the new particle, which may be the God particle, has had enormous implications. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
In the world of mathematics, it would be equivalent to proving a top-level mathematical conjecture.
Zhao Yi’s personal achievements, however, might not be as significant, because the Higgs particle had long been predicted, and the function of the Higgs field had already been analyzed.
He is merely the discoverer.
