Chapter 609: Chapter 350: What Does It Matter if Others Know?_3
There are many types of particles in quantum physics, and ’spin’ is a characteristic of these particles. It refers to the inherent motion caused by the intrinsic angular momentum of the particle, and its operation rules are similar to the angular momentum of classical mechanics, which will generate a magnetic field.
Although the spin of particles is sometimes analogized to the rotation in classical mechanics, in fact, the two are fundamentally different.
Yang Zhenning has done very in-depth research on the issue of particle spin.
As a result of this research, Zhao Yi has gained a deeper understanding of the spin of particles, and the issue of particle spin permeates all his research.
For instance, Supersymmetry.
Particles with half-integer spin are called fermions and obey Fermi-Dirac statistics; particles with non-negative integer spin are called bosons and obey Bose-Einstein statistics.
The study of the symmetry of fermions and bosons is a matter of supersymmetry, and it is also the basis for the defense of M Theory.
Another example is Boundary Mathematics in multidimensional space.
What Zhao Yi is doing now is constructing boundary mathematics in multidimensional space, but he prefers to call it ’Higgs mechanism mathematics’, in a nutshell, it’s the mathematics that allows particles to acquire mass. Among the particles that can acquire mass are bosons and fermions. In the Higgs mechanism, both can acquire mass through interaction with the Higgs field.
So .....
"How to construct the energy distribution of bosons and fermions? So that they can acquire mass through interaction with the mathematics of the Higgs mechanism?"
"How should mathematics of the Higgs mechanism be constructed?"
The former question needs to be researched by Zhao Yi himself, while the latter is a part that requires coordination with Edward’s research.
Zhao Yi has always been thinking about these questions. He bases his ongoing research on the boundary theory of particles.
Whether it’s an issue of particle spin or any other particle characteristic problem, especially standing on the forefront of the world’s research, it’s very meaningful for him.
In the time leading up to the start of the conference, he continuously interacted with others, asking about relevant content. When Yang Zhenning, Zhang Hongzhi and others noticed that Zhao Yi always discussed this issue, they took an interest and asked, "What are you researching?"
Zhao Yi said, "It’s a project I’m collaborating on with Edward Witten, the boundary problem of multidimensional space in M theory."
"We’ve found a good path, which is to use the Higgs mechanism to link multidimensional space. Perhaps we might achieve some progress."
He spoke frankly of his thoughts without reserve.
Yang Zhenning was quite surprised, feeling Zhao Yi was somewhat too young. How could he openly talk about research ideas, thoughts, inspirations and such?
What if it provides others with a thought path ....
No, wait!
Upon reflection of the names ’Edward Witten’ and ’Zhao Yi’, he suddenly understood completely.
What if others know about it?
If we were to rank the mathematical abilities of people who have won the Fields Medal, Edward Witten would easily rank in the top three. Although he is a theoretical physicist, theoretical physics is a branch of mathematics, and his mathematical abilities are absolutely top-notch in the world. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Zhao Yi ...
The world’s recognized number one mathematician, who solved Fermat’s Last Theorem and Goldbach’s Conjecture, molded the three-dimensional trembling waveform chart, and has unparalleled achievements in the field of analytical number theory. In the research of theoretical physics, he also created a branch known as ’Particle Boundary Theory’ which is considered potentially groundbreaking.
With these two ’super mathematicians’ teaming up, are they afraid of others stealing their ideas?
So what if others know?
Who understands M theory better than Edward Witten? Whose mathematical level is higher than Zhao Yi’s? If such a person really exists, they wouldn’t stoop to ’stealing ideas’.
The reaction of the people around them was telling.
When Zhao Yi explained his research in detail, others shook their heads, not because they didn’t think highly of the research, but because they simply couldn’t keep up with the complex mathematics involved. Simply put, they just didn’t understand it.
Although they were top-tier physicists and their mathematical abilities were undoubtedly good, they hadn’t delved deep into M theory or the energy theory of particles, so following the thought process was challenging.
Yang Zhenning also had trouble keeping up.
If this had been twenty years ago, his abilities wouldn’t be lacking, but after all, he has aged, and his thinking has become somewhat less flexible.
When Zhao Yi got into the detailed mathematics, he noticed that the surroundings had cooled down somewhat. Deciding to wrap it up, he still felt somewhat unsatisfied.
He could only sigh at the loneliness of the top ...
It’s hard to find someone who truly understands!
