"LIMO Atom Fusion Theory"

In the paper, Li Mo proposed the theory that the atoms of two elements can fuse with each other on the atomic scale under certain circumstances. This fusion will allow the product to express new properties, but will not change the properties of the original atoms.

After carefully checking the paper again, Li Mo sighed deeply. He knew what this paper meant to the academic world.

Now there is a very bad phenomenon in the international academic circles. When many people evaluate a new theory, they will first pay attention to its proposer. If the person who proposes the theory is a well-known and respected professor, this theory will be quickly accepted by the academic circle. On the contrary, if its proposer is an unknown ordinary scholar, those scholars will put on colored glasses and find fault.

Although Li Mo is not a "newcomer" in the academic world, he is still far away from the stage of being highly respected, so he is ready to be "sprayed wildly", especially this kind of "unconventional" theory still faintly exudes a sense of civil science. smell.

He once contributed a paper to "Nature". As the editor-in-chief, Fried took the initiative to send him a congratulatory email through his private mailbox, and suggested that if there are papers to be published in the future, he can be contacted directly through his private mailbox. This is also a common practice for academic journals to treat well-known professors. On the one hand, it facilitates the smooth review of papers, and on the other hand, they can have priority in obtaining the right to publish papers.

Li Mo opened the mailbox and found the private mailbox of Fried, the editor-in-chief of "Nature", pasted the paper in the attachment, and clicked to send it lightly. Then he leaned back on the chair and took a long breath. For the sake of scientific truth, he was willing to face the coming storm.

Nature Magazine, London, UK

Editor-in-chief Fried put away the wet umbrella and carefully hung it on the shelf.

"This damn weather, I really envy Stride, who is on vacation in the Pacific Ocean." He kept complaining about the weather in London, and of course every Londoner would complain about the rainy weather.

He took a sip of the handmade coffee brought by the assistant, the rich aroma drove away the chill from his body, and he felt better.

"Let's see what new papers are there today?" Fried first opened his private mailbox. "Nature", as the world's top journal in the field of natural science, is naturally highly sought after by the academic community. E-mails will receive contributions from countless researchers with dreams. But these submissions are varied, and some are even full of mistakes.

As the editor-in-chief, Fried does not need to review these papers, because he will receive papers from some well-known professors in his private mailbox. In contrast, the quality of such papers is much higher.

Although the magazine does not advocate this kind of "hiding private" behavior, it also turns a blind eye to this kind of behavior that can bring high-quality papers.

New research on the role of monocytes in epilepsy? Fried looked at the paper in the mailbox, stared blankly, and subconsciously looked at the contributor, a professor from M National University.

"Another follower." He shook his head and directly clicked the paper. Since the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden proved that monocytes are related to sarcoidosis, there has been a wave of single-cell fever in the medical field, and various mononuclear cell papers have been published. But the first one who dares to eat the crab is the hero, and the second one can only be the bear. "Nature" has always dismissed such follow-up papers.

"Research Progress on the Structure and Growth Mechanism of Three-dimensional Ice", Contributor: Prof. Lester from Princeton.

"It's interesting." Fried clicked on the paper. After 30 minutes, he regretted his sloppyness just now. This paper was completely piled up with patchwork data and did not propose any new theories. As a top journal, it will not allow this kind of paper without any novelty to be published in its own journal.

"LIMO Atom Fusion Theory" Contributor: Professor Li Mo, Yenching University.

Atom fusion? Seeing this shocking headline, Fried felt his eyeballs were about to explode. Can atoms fuse? Fried himself is a professor of physics, so he is naturally familiar with the most basic composition of this substance. A kind of atom can only fuse into another kind of atom under special environment, such as the ultra-high temperature and high pressure inside a star. Or some radioactive elements are fissioned into another kind of atoms due to their active atomic properties.

But Professor Li Mo from Yenching University used the word "fusion" in his paper, and Fried seemed to have seen a paper on civil science.

"Li Mo?" Fried seemed to have some impressions of this author. He thought about it carefully. Isn't Li Mo the master of Hua who won the Abel Prize? How did you become a professor?

At that time, Li Mo won the Abel Prize as a master. Not only did the professors not look down on the Abel Prize, but they admired the courage of the awarding committee. This also became a good story at that time.

Li Mo is hailed by some as the most promising rising star in the scientific world. Compared with some well-known professors, he has not published many papers, but each paper has since been proved to be of great academic value.

He has already proved his strength in the Department of Mathematics and Astronomy, and now he has "crossed" the field of physics?

Thinking of this, Fried became cautious about this paper. Naturally, such a talented star would not make the mistakes of Minke.

He gently opened the paper.

"Atoms of two elements can fuse with each other at the atomic scale under certain circumstances. This fusion will allow the product to express new properties, but it will not change the properties of the original atoms."

At the beginning of the paper, the author puts forward a brand-new point of view, which integrates each other at the atomic scale. Fried knew that in physics, under the internal force of atoms, there will be no concept of fusion between them.

For the unknown, all scientists will be in awe, and Fried is the same. He suppressed the doubts in his heart and continued to read.

In subsequent papers, the author used a large space to prove the existence of this fusion through mathematical models. Although Fried is not a professional mathematics professor, there is a saying in academia that every physicist is an amateur mathematician.

As modern physics becomes more and more abstract, the original classical physics has gradually withdrawn from the stage. Today's physicists must have the ability to describe physical processes with mathematical abstractions, so his mathematical foundation is not weaker than that of any major. mathematician

"Well, this model seems to have no logical errors." Fried unconsciously picked up a pen and paper and practiced the model on the draft.

"This conversion is also very good, a bit like the LIMO conversion theory." Only then did he remember that the LIMO conversion theory was the work of this big guy.

"Wait. What is this?" Fried looked at the equation in the paper with a frown. There were no mathematical errors in this equation, but he had difficulty understanding the logical relationship.

"...I don't understand this either."

"Hmm, I don't understand."

With the development of the mathematical logic in the thesis, Fried found that he was now in the scene when his teacher showed a most advanced mathematics thesis in the classroom when he was just in college.

He knew all the numbers and symbols in the thesis, but he didn't know them when they were put in the thesis.

"Has modern mathematics developed to such a high level?"

Fried had given up reading papers and began to deeply doubt his professional ability.
