Genius of the Rules-Style System

UCLA.

The gray-haired old professor Jonny Perlmutter is working a part-time job in physics--

Served as a reviewer for the famous physics magazine "Classical Gravity and Quantum Gravity".

Jonny Perlmutter is a full professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles, and an expert in astrophysics. His theory of ‘positive and negative energy of stars’ has been widely recognized by the theoretical physics community.

Perlmutter was fifty-eight years old and was about to retire.

When you reach this age, it is too difficult to achieve any results in academic research.

Perlmutter began to focus on education early on, but he did not give up scientific research completely, but instead focused on reviewing manuscripts.

He enjoys reviewing manuscripts.

"Classical Gravity and Quantum Gravity" is the world's top physics academic journal. It mainly publishes the research results of physicists, mathematicians, and cosmologists on the theory of gravity and space-time. It is in the research direction of classical relativity and quantum gravity. World recognized leadership.

Precisely because of its great international influence, "Classical Gravity and Quantum Gravity" can always attract a variety of research papers and manuscripts with great ideas.

What Perlmutter enjoys most is reading all kinds of imaginative manuscripts, especially those that make no sense, which can help him affirm his own life.

This may be due to his obsession with physics research.

Perlmutter loved physics the most when he was young, but he spent the most precious ten years researching the "theory of positive and negative energy of stars", but there were no subsequent results.

Later, he was defeated by reality and could only focus on educational work. His promotion to full professor still relied on mathematical research.

Now that he sees these imaginative and nonsense manuscripts, Perlmutter feels that he is still very successful, at least his research is not this bad.

"It's so funny that there are multi-dimensional spaces in human cells."

"Research on supernovae radiation? What is there to study? It would be great if we have the technology to observe it. What content can it contain?"

"Boundary theory of particles? Particles, boundaries? What is this thing? This guy has such a big idea. Even particles can have boundaries..."

Perlmutter planned to review ten articles. After reading the titles of the first three articles, he did not intend to continue reading the content, so he planned to reject the manuscript directly.

This is not irresponsible.

'There are multi-dimensional spaces within human cells' can be said to be a fantasy out of thin air, while 'supernova radiation research' mainly relies on astronomers' observations and collection of data for research, rather than looking at a picture to study and Speculating on supernova emissions.

There are many similar manuscripts received every day, some of which are simply boring farces, or self-righteous ‘so-called research’ by ​​laypeople who don’t understand. There is no point in looking at it carefully.

The "particle boundary theory" is inconsistent with existing theories.

In quantum physics, the volume of particles is ignored. No matter what kind of particle it is, there is no volume.

If a specific expression is written, the volume of the particle is below ten to the negative fifteenth power, and can even be as small as ten to the negative thirtieth power.

To draw any boundaries for such a tiny thing, isn’t it just a matter of imagination?

Perlmutter shook his head in amusement and planned to send a rejection email directly.

Suddenly, he stopped.

I saw that the name marked on the email address of the contributor was ‘Zhao-Yi’.

"Where have you heard this name before?"

"Zhao-Yi? This name is Chinese?"

"Zhao-Yi, Zhao-Yi, Zhao-Yi..."

Perlmutter read it several times in a row, and his frown suddenly relaxed, "Zhao Yi? Goldbach's conjecture? Kakutani's conjecture? Three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram..."

"Impossible, is it the same name?"

Perlmutter frowned hard. He checked the contributor's simple information and found that the workplace was marked as 'Professor, School of Science, Yanhua University'.

"School of Science, Yanhua University? Yanhua University? That should be right!"

Perlmutter took a deep breath, quickly deleted the rejection email, opened it and looked at the contents of the manuscript carefully.

I couldn't stop watching it.

Perlmutter devoted himself seriously to reviewing the manuscript and completely forgot about the passage of time.

Although the manuscript is only about eight pages long, it contains very complex mathematical calculations and some theories without fulcrums, which seems a bit obscure and difficult.

But, more importantly, it is a paper in theoretical physics.

There are some unproven theories in physics. The purpose of their existence is to solve some unexplainable things and phenomena in physics and to achieve the unification of mechanics.

This paper describing particle boundaries does not conflict with any definite physical laws. At the same time, it explains and describes the reasons for the existence of many physical phenomena theoretically.

For example, why there is no absolute zero.

For example, why the movement of particles is irregular.

For example, why does the Higgs field exist?

These are phenomena discovered during physics research.

Before, no physicist would study why absolute zero exists. They just regarded this phenomenon as a rule that exists in the universe.

For example: gravity.

‘Gravity’ is a rule that exists in the universe, but few people think about why there is universal gravity?

The same goes for issues such as absolute zero and the irregular motion of particles. They are physical phenomena that have been discovered and exist, but few people think about why these phenomena exist.

This is also a very profound physics problem.

‘Particle Boundary Theory’ uses a unique mathematical method to describe the boundaries of particles, and infers the boundary energy distribution that is irregular and cannot form a closed loop, thereby explaining some physical problems.

Perlmutter read it from beginning to end, and then began to look at the detailed calculations to get a general impression of the theoretical description.

In this particle boundary theory, the description of the energy distribution at the particle boundary is a bit like the hard shell on the back of a snail, which is rolled inward round and round. The final end point and starting point can never be connected together.

The energy of particles is distributed in this way. The energy itself will shift, and the direction of the shift is uncertain. Based on the irregular distribution of prime numbers, a situation will occur -

There is no external force acting on the particles to make them energy balanced.

The reason is simple: the energy distribution of the prime sequence cannot form a regular closed loop.

This is like a three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram. Because the prime solutions represented by the waveform diagram are irregular, it is impossible to calculate the sum of all prime solutions.

on the contrary.

Regular arithmetic sequence and geometric sequence, even if the elements in the set are infinite, the results can be expressed by sequence formulas.

"It's really..."

"What a genius idea!"

Perlmutter read the manuscript again and found that some of the content was still unclear, so he simply gave up. He took a long stretch and looked at the time and found that it was three o'clock in the morning.

He was getting older and couldn't stand it anymore. He felt exhausted all over, so he stood up with a sigh and prepared to go to the next room to rest.

When he walked out of the door, he found that the light in the opposite corner room was still on.

Perlmutter saw the figure working inside through the crack in the door, and simply knocked on the door and called, "Terry?"

Inside is Terence Tao.

Terence Tao raised his head in surprise when he heard the shout, "Mr. Perlmutter? Why are you still here so late?"

Perlmutter walked in with a smile and said, "Aren't you here too?"

Terence Tao smiled.

Recently he was studying a mathematical problem, and when he caught the inspiration, he wanted to solve it in one go. When he was in his early thirties, staying up all night was nothing. But Perlmutter was different. He was almost sixty, so staying up all night was not a big deal. But it's very harmful to the body.

Perlmutter walked closer and explained, "I saw a very interesting article, written by Zhao Yi."

"Zhao Yi?" Terence Tao asked in surprise, "Mathematics?"

"I am not responsible for reviewing manuscripts for mathematics magazines." Perlmutter shrugged.

"physics?"

Perlmutter nodded and said, "I can't say more specifically. It's just that I spent several hours and finally decided to submit it to the advisory committee. Maybe those people can help."

"So profound?"

"well."

Perlmutter sighed and left the office without saying anything.

Tao Zhexuan supported his chin with his hand and shook his head helplessly.

He was interested in what Perlmutter said, but he was a math scholar and had little research in physics. He could only sigh, "Compared with him, I seem to be an ordinary person."

…

The magazine "Classical and Quantum Gravity" is the most famous physics journal in the world. It accepts submissions from top international physics research, so it naturally requires heavyweight reviewers.

The advisory board is the 'backup' top review team for "Classical Gravity and Quantum Gravity".

Manuscripts that are incomprehensible to ordinary review editors will be submitted to the advisory committee. The managers of the committee will submit them to more professional review consultants based on the content of the manuscript and the opinions of the review editor.

"The Boundary Theory of Particles" is about quantum physics and is also a theoretical paper. Perlmutter's accompanying comments on the manuscript were, "This is an amazing research paper that requires top theoretical physicists and top-notch Only mathematicians can judge its content."

The head of the advisory committee saw the title of the paper, the author's name, and the review editor's comments, and simply forwarded the paper to the two consultants.

One is George Smoot, a famous astrophysicist who has just won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his outstanding contributions to the cosmic microwave background radiation.

At the University of California, Berkeley, George Smoot set out to establish the "Berkeley Cosmology Center."

The other is Professor Lisa Randall of Harvard University.

Famous female professors in the world of physics are as rare as gold, especially in the field of theoretical physics. It is really rare for a female physicist to become famous academically.

Lisa Randall is such a woman. She became famous by proposing the "five-dimensional space" and claiming to challenge Einstein. Many people in the physics community do not recognize Lisa Randall's achievements and think that she His achievements are sensational, and his fame is entirely due to his identity as a "female", but in any case, being able to become a physics professor at Harvard University must be of a certain level.

George Smoot has been busy with the affairs of the Cosmology Center recently and did not see the email immediately.

Lisa Randall had a lot of free time. She came to the office in the morning, turned on her computer and saw the manuscript in her mailbox, and then she read it carefully.

She frowned after taking a closer look and decided to 'reject' the manuscript in less than half an hour.

The reason for the label is, "The content does not make any sense and is a fraud on physics research!"

"Studying the boundaries of particles makes no sense!"

At the end, I even added two sentences, which generally mean, "Making things up" and "Bullshit."

Rawls, the head of the Advisory Committee, couldn't help but frowned when he saw Lisa Randall's reply.

Generally speaking, manuscripts sent to the advisory committee and approved by the review editor have certain merits.

Lisa Randall was not only dismissive of the manuscript itself, but also trampled on the dignity of reviewer Perlmutter.

Perlmutter believed that the manuscript needed to be reviewed carefully, and he admitted that his quality was not good enough when it was submitted. However, when it came to the consulting editor, he quickly rejected it and said that it was 'made up' and 'bullshit'?

Rawls sent an inquiry email and specifically marked the submitted author as Zhao Yi.

Lisa Randall quickly responded, "I still hold the same view. This paper is purely fabricated. It is the fantasy of a layman who does not understand physical research at all about the study of the microscopic particle world."

Rolles gave up immediately.

In fact, Lisa Randall did not have any objection to Zhao Yi, but purely to the paper itself.

"Boundary Theory of Particles" is in direct conflict with Lisa Randall's "Fifth Dimension Space" theory.

Lisa Randall is widely recognized because of the "fifth dimensional space" theory. She lectures publicly and describes her theory, which has been featured in "Fashion Magazine" and "The New York Times". Several related books have been published.

One can imagine how important the ‘fifth dimensional space’ theory is to her.

"Boundary Theory of Particles" describes and analyzes the internal energy form of particles. The premise is that the interior of particles can be divided and cannot be regarded as a point, a concept, or an energy mark alone.

This is where the conflict occurs.

The 'fifth dimensional space' theory believes that the fifth dimension exists around us, but it is too small to be discovered by people. The theory describes particles as basic individuals, such as photons, which can be regarded as an energy Mark, in order to escape as a 'fifth dimension' as a 'thing too small to be noticed'.

If the smallest particles can also undergo internal analysis, the 'fifth-dimensional space' theory will be wrong, and it will be impossible to enter the 'fifth-dimensional space', which will also lead to what she discovered in the nuclear fission experiment. "A particle mysteriously disappeared" became a big joke.

How could Lisa Randall allow this to happen?

When you see a theory that conflicts with your own research, you don't even have to think about throwing it into the abyss.

The upper level of theoretical physics is really like a religion. There is no such thing as tolerance. After all, no one wants to deny the research content they have been pursuing all their lives.

For example, a theoretical physicist spends his whole life studying string theory.

There is a theory that directly points out that string theory is wrong. How can it be accepted? Doesn’t it mean that his lifelong research was a mistake?

This is a denial of life!

Absolutely unacceptable!

…

Yanhua University, in front of the School of Science building.

Zhao Yi didn't know that his thesis was ruthlessly rejected by a menopausal female professor at Harvard University simply because of theoretical conflicts.

He was also talking about the content of his research, with physics teacher Gao Yihua.

Last time Gao Yihua explained the problem of parity non-conservation to Zhao Yi, he thought Zhao Yi was doing some big research, but the matter seemed to have passed and there was no news for a long time.

Zhao Yi seemed to have returned to his normal life, and the only research-related content was an occasional trip to the Biomedical Research Institute.

This is wrong!

Gao Yihua felt very depressed. He was still thinking about what big research Zhao Yi had, so he asked Hu Zhibin to show it off.

Now it seems like the chance is gone.

"impossible!"

"Zhao Yi must have done some research, otherwise why would he go to the lectures and ask about parity nonconservation?"

"He even said it would help..."

Gao Yihua really couldn't figure it out. After meeting Zhao Yi at the door of the building, he asked insinuatingly, "Zhao Yi, just last time, you said you were doing research, and I also talked about parity non-conservation..."

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yi was a little confused.

"How's your research going?" Gao Yihua asked directly.

"it's over."

"it's over?"

"yes."

Zhao Yi said, "I submitted my paper two weeks ago, but I don't know if it will pass the review." The boundary of particles is just a theory, and he doesn't know whether it has any specific meaning or whether it will be recognized by the physics community.

Gao Yihua suddenly asked with interest, "What kind of research is it? Can you tell me?"

Zhao Yi nodded and said, "It is the boundary energy and theory of particles. I use mathematical methods to describe the energy inside the particles."

"For example, the smallest neutrino."

He said, "Neuttrinos are almost undetectable, but such a small particle must have its composition. I think the boundary of neutrinos conforms to the arrangement rules of gradient prime numbers, and it is more restrained than the energy of photons... …”

"The more restrained the energy of the particle, the stronger the penetrability will be due to its boundary distribution rules..."

"..."

"..."

Gao Yihua listened stupidly.

At the beginning, he was very interested, but later he simply couldn't understand it at all.

What is this talking about?

Why can every word, every syllable, and even every paragraph be understood, but when put together, it is completely incomprehensible?
