Chapter 389 One step closer to being a genius(1/2)
Liu Feng had already had a curse in his mind about the arrangements of Professor Ding Zhaozhong and his "international friends", but he also wanted to hear what others thought.
"Boss, do you have any comments here?"
After thinking about it, Academician Wang said directly: "If this matter is not handled properly, it is very likely that scientists from other countries will have a bad impression of our country. However, as long as we solve one person, it will be easier for others to deal with..."
Liu Feng nodded, and he also had this idea: "The person you are talking about should be Professor Ding."
"That's right!" Academician Wang also nodded, "With his connections and prestige, in the field of high-energy physics, as long as he takes the lead, I believe others will not say anything, but it depends on what you mean."
"I?"
Academician Wang: "Yes, after all, you are the person in charge of anti-matter engineering. You should understand what I mean..."
Nodded and shook his head, Liu Feng pondered for a while.
Boss Wang means, what kind of function does Liu Feng want Mr. Ding to play, whether to continue to study high-energy physics or engage in antimatter!
And the problem is difficult, so it is difficult.
What kind of character is Professor Ding?
The leader in the field of high-energy physics!
Even though he doesn't care much about certain things, they can't ignore them!
China must erect the old man's flag, which means that the old man must be given a suitable position, and even in addition to personnel rights, the experimental leadership of the entire super collider!
Of course, with his own prestige, it is absolutely possible for Liu Feng to directly grasp the leadership of the laboratory. No one else would say anything about it, and Professor Ding would not care about it, but he could not stay at the Super Collider forever!
Moreover, they had already planned it before, and the best person in charge of this position should be Academician Wang. Now...
After thinking about it, Liu Feng replied: "I will make a decision on this matter after I communicate with Professor Ding. At least, I personally think that it is not appropriate to let Professor Ding participate in antimatter engineering for the time being."
Nodding, Academician Wang breathed a sigh of relief and understood what Liu Feng meant.
It’s not that he can’t bear to leave this position, but that sometimes, he has to fight for it!
What's more, everyone has their own ambitions, and Wang Yifang is in his prime, and his ambitions are not comparable to ordinary people... No matter where, if you want to realize your ambitions, you must seize the greatest power as much as possible!
"Okay, I understand, I support your decision anyway."
...
After mercy with Boss Wang, he ordered the meeting. Liu Feng first returned to his office, found out the specific plans and arrangements for the experiments at the Super Collider Research Institute, and then got up and went to the main conference room of the institute.
I didn't stay for too long, and soon the others in the institute came.
The main reason is that researchers and engineers who can know about antimatter engineering in the research institute. Liu Feng held a brief meeting and learned about the situation from various departments.
According to the heads of several departments, the current work is basically still focusing on the debugging task of the super collider in the second half of the debugging process.
That is, considering as confidential as possible, the antimatter functional modules are first completed: such as the Pengning ion trap device, antimatter deceleration, cooling and shunt system, etc.
The debugging of these functional modules has basically come to an end. The next work is mainly to debug the collision module, and this part is likely to allow "international friends" to participate.
Moreover, over the past period of time, many experts who have just returned from abroad to join the institute have had a lot of "concerns". This meeting also means "solving doubts" to these people.
Academician Gao Yuanning, who was sitting at the conference table and returning from there, asked with a serious expression:
"Whether it is used to produce antimatter or to conduct purely high-energy physical collision experiments, the large particle accelerator of the super collider is definitely the core of the core! However, unlike other particle colliders, our collider circular tunnel has a diameter of more than 5 meters and is more than 100 kilometers long, and there are many ground facilities such as cooling compressors, ventilation equipment, control motor equipment, refrigeration tanks and other buildings. The debugging of this part is the most difficult. At that time, the lhc took a full 2 years to complete the debugging! And we can really complete it in just 5 months or even less?"
"Of course, it may be that I don't know much about it..."
"Academician Gao's doubts must be the doubts of many experts who have just joined our project. Here I can answer them systematically." Academician Wang first glanced at Liu Feng, nodded, and then stood up to explain.
Perhaps they have not adapted to the environment yet, or they have a big gap in their hearts, or they want to strive for something further, during this period, there are many "newcomers" at the base who believe that the institute is eager for quick success and instant benefits and is very happy to achieve success. It takes 3 months for others to complete the work in Europe, and it is simply irresponsible to the work!
Liu Feng knew completely that this was just a matter of taking advantage of the problem. The intention of the Zuiweng was not to drink. As the chief designer of the project, he had to maintain his authority and eliminate the signs of these people, because at this critical period, the entire base must have only one voice!
Therefore, this led to the performances of Academician Gao and Boss Wang.
"The reason why it is planned to take only 5 months or less is three main points."
"First, our supercollider used the most advanced theory and production processes at the beginning of its design. Compared with LHC, it has a higher system integration level and can save a lot of time during debugging and future formal experiments."
"Secondly, although our super collider is larger in scale, with the experience of our predecessors and the fact that we invested three times the manpower of LHC at the time, the speed is naturally faster."
"Finally, of course, it's a matter of working time and efficiency. I believe everyone has already realized that the working hours of our institute are three shifts, which is not as comfortable as those of others. When people stop the machine, they are naturally much faster than those of the original lhc."
...
The questions and answers of Academician Gao and Boss Wang dispelled many people's doubts and even dispelled the little actions of those people.
Once there are bad signs in the research institute, Liu Feng doesn't even need him to end up in person, and the others will take the initiative to help him solve the problem.
after all,
At this critical moment, Professor Liu's authority is absolutely unquestionable, and this is also the unanimous idea of the core figures in the entire antimatter engineering!
Of course, in addition to this type of problem, it is Liu Feng himself who will take the lead in person for technical problems.
In an ordinary collider, in the annular channel of the accelerator, two proton beam tubes are mainly placed, and the accelerator tube is covered by a superconducting magnet and is mainly cooled by liquid helium. When the collision experiment begins, the protons in the tube run around the entire annular accelerator in the opposite direction.
However, in addition to the two proton beam tubes, this super collider in Shanhaiguan also has an ultra-laser pipeline that can further strengthen the collision with ultra-high energy laser when protons in the two proton beam tubes collide, or can also selectively perform laser collision at the tail port of the pipeline flow after the protons collided.
In addition, four experimental collision points are set in the annular channel of ordinary colliders, such as the four collision points of the lhc acceleration ring, and five detectors are installed in the crypts at the collision points.
Among them, the super-tooth instrument (ATLAS) and the compact sub-coil (cms) are general-purpose particle detectors, while the other three (lhc bottom quark detectors (lhcb), large ion collider (alice) and full-section elastic scattering detectors (totem) are smaller special target detectors.
However, China's supercollider has 12 experimental collision points, while there is only one detector installed near the collision point - a large array integrated detector!
Therefore, the debugging of the two is completely different. If there is no experience to learn from, problems will follow one after another.
This time, even Academician Fang Shouxian was stumped.
"Professor Liu, our array integrated detector has two modes, one is the general full spectrum analysis mode and the other is the special target analysis mode. However, when we debugged, we found that the special target analysis mode is actually lower than the specific target analysis accuracy in the general full spectrum analysis mode..."
When Liu Feng heard Academician Fang’s question, he frowned.
It is obvious that this situation is absolutely abnormal. According to the design philosophy of the instrument, under the analysis of specific goals, the latter should theoretically have higher accuracy, but the results are completely opposite.
"Have all the experimental data been brought?"
"Everything is here." Fang Shouxian nodded and immediately handed over a document. "This situation has happened more than once. We have debugged 5 sets of experimental targets, and both sets of targets have this situation."
Liu Feng took the document and started to read it carefully.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the conference room was so quiet that only the sound of the wall clock ticking on the wall could be heard.
Liu Feng didn't say anything, and the engineers sitting at the conference table were waiting patiently.
Finally, after reading all the information in his hand, Liu Feng closed the document and handed the information back to Academician Fang, looking at the audience in the conference room: "Does everyone have any solutions to the problems Academician Fang encounter?"
However, everyone shook their heads, and they didn't even know the reason for this, let alone solve it.
Some people have even doubted whether the instrument itself has quality defects, after all, this situation will not happen.
Finally, Academician Fang expressed his opinion: "After discussion, most people believe that this situation is likely to be because the optical components of the instrument itself have not met the standards..."
"No, it's not a problem with optical components."
Seeing the experts' expressions, Liu Feng shook his head and directly denied Academician Fang's view.
However, just when everyone listened attentively and thought this guy would explain in detail, this guy's behavior was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Okay, today's meeting will end here. You can go back first. From tomorrow, each department will have two days off and report the day after tomorrow."
The meeting ended and holiday arrangements were announced. Faced with the unexpected and suspicious eyes, Liu Feng smiled faintly: "I still have a question to confirm. In three days, I will give you an answer!"
...
The meeting ended in a hurry.
After the meeting, a group of people left the conference room, and only Liu Feng stayed inside.
When he walked to Academician Wang, Fang Shouxian obviously hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a confused tone: "What the hell did he think?"
Wang Yifang smiled: "Are you talking about the question you mentioned just now or the other ones?"
Seeing Academician Wang's appearance of Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without moving, and having the intention to laugh, Fang Shouxian sighed:
"You two masters and apprentices! Since you have said this, let me tell you about these two questions. The detector problem is related to whether the entire collider can enter the next stage smoothly. We are racing against time every day, but Professor Liu actually gave us a holiday? Also, you know, how do you want to arrange those people?"
Wang Yifang looked up and thought for a while and said, "Let me talk about the previous question first. Didn't you see that the kid already has his eyes?"
"Is he really angry?" Fang Shouxian was stunned for a moment, and shook his head in disbelief. "Of course we all recognize Professor Liu's strength. Looking at the world, there are probably no more physicists who are better than him. But he can really solve the problem in 3 days? You know, this problem has troubled us for more than a month, right? Besides, why don't you tell me on the spot if you have eyebrows? You should know that some people have never been convinced by him..."
"I can't explain this question clearly, but I believe this kid will never be aimless..."
"Well, we will see the answer in three days anyway, so there is no need to worry too much."
Wang Yifang just frowned slightly, and then slowly talked about the next question.
"As for how those people arrange it... Anyway, the sky collapses and there is a tall one who stands up, so let him have a headache!"
Fang Shouxian: “…”
These master and apprentice are really angry. The people around them are almost anxious, but they are as if they are fine!
But he had no choice but to deal with these two people.
after all,
Who said that one of these two guys is the leader of the Institute of High Energy?
To be continued...
