Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After Xiang Nan and Peggy entered CERN, they were busy attending various lectures and conferences, and they didn't return to the hotel exhausted until late at night.

Although the two were very tired, they both felt that they had gained a lot.

Especially Xiang Nan, in addition to acquiring knowledge, the most important thing is to broaden his horizons and expand his contacts.

Today, not only top scholars and professors, but also editor-in-chiefs of top journals, senior officials from various scientific research institutions and top universities are present.

Getting to know them will be beneficial to Xiangnan's future development.

Of course, Xiang Nan also knows that the so-called connections are not how many talented people he knows, but how many talented people know him.

The essence of contacts is the exchange of interests. If you don't have the benefits that others want, then this network is tantamount to nothing.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan is not someone to wait for nothing. His research on the Kuiper belt is very clever, and he is also the discoverer of TOI700d, and he is also well-known in the field of astrophysics.

Especially since he is still very young, only twenty-six years old, and he has a bright future. Therefore, there are also many people who are willing to get acquainted with him, which greatly expands Xiang Nan's network.

...

After returning to the hotel room, the first problem I faced was how to sleep at night.

"..." Peggy looked at the double bed, frowning into a knot.

Do you really want to sleep in the same bed with Xiang Nan tonight? ! She wasn't ready yet.

"Don't worry, it's easy to handle." Xiang Nan waved his hands, then asked the hotel for an extra quilt, and spread it directly on the floor, "OK, you sleep on the bed, I can sleep on the floor."

"Then how is it possible? I'm your assistant. If I want to sleep, I should sleep on the floor." Peggy stopped her immediately when she saw her.

"Okay, I'm a man and you are a woman. Can I let you sleep on the floor and I sleep on the bed? Then who am I?" Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Don't evade any more."

"Raj, you're a bit discriminating against women." Peggy shook her head and said.

"I'm not discriminating against women, but men's physique is generally much better than women's. The floor is so hard, it's not suitable for rest, so I should sleep." Xiang Nan explained, "I'm not discriminatory, I'm facing the reality .”

Hearing what he said, Peggy could only nod her head.

After the two of them washed up separately, they went to bed.

To be honest, the floor is really not suitable for sleeping.

Mainly because it is too hard. Although Xiang Nan put a quilt under his body, he still felt panicked.

It's just that the words have been spoken, and he is too embarrassed to go back on his word, so he has to endure it secretly.

Fortunately, he was too tired after flying for half a day and listening to lectures for half a day, so he didn't bear it for long, and soon fell asleep.

...

Turning around, the alarm clock rang to wake them up.

"Peggy, get up quickly." Xiang Nan greeted.

Today is a great day for the ALICE trial, and they must not miss it.

"Yes." Peggy sat down all of a sudden, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

Seeing that Xiang Nan got up from the ground and kept beating his back with his fists, she quickly asked, "Raj, is it uncomfortable to sleep on the ground?"

Xiang Nan grinned, pretending to be strong and said, "What's the matter, don't worry about me, go wash up."

In fact, after sleeping on the floor all night, when he woke up early, he felt sore all over his bones.

But since it was his own choice, there was no point in complaining to Peggy.

After washing up, Xiang Nan and Peggy had breakfast with the team members, and then went to CERN by car together to watch today's hadron collision experiment.

After breakfast, everyone came to the experiment center by car again.

Although they had come very early, when they arrived at the scene, they were surprised to find that many people had gathered in the experiment center.

Today is the first time that the Hadron Collider has been put into use, and it is also the first time for humans to simulate the initial form of the universe after the Big Bang.

It can be said that this experiment itself is a pioneering feat, and it is a great honor for all scientists to be able to watch this experiment up close.

What's more, this experiment will also produce a large amount of data. These data contain the mysteries of the universe. If they can be deciphered, mankind's understanding of the universe will rise to a new level.

Therefore, everyone's mood is both anticipation and apprehension, and the scene is full of solemn and tense atmosphere.

...

At half past ten, the ALICE test was officially held.

The first beam of protons, as thin as a hair, was injected into the collider buried 100 meters underground.

Everyone held their breath and looked up at the big screen in the experiment center.

Five seconds later, a signal was displayed on the big screen. This proves that the experiment is going well.

Seeing this scene, everyone present couldn't help applauding.

Nearly an hour later, the first beam of protons pierced the collider.

After another four hours of sophisticated debugging, the second beam of protons was injected into the collider in the opposite direction.

After some adjustments, the first proton beam and the second proton beam began to accelerate respectively.

The full-powered collider flows trillions of particles through the 27-kilometer-long underground tunnel at high speed, with a maximum speed of nearly 300,000 kilometers per second, which is equivalent to 99.99% of the speed of light.

At such a high speed, the proton beam can fly tens of thousands of times in the tunnel per second, and the energy of a single beam can reach seven trillion electron volts. The collision of two proton beams is naturally extremely shocking, no less than Mars hitting the earth.

However, the proton beam is only as thick as a hair, and the collision process cannot be seen with the naked eye.

What people can see now is just various data from the detectors.

But even so, people are still very excited.

Everyone looked up at the screen, full of anticipation in their hearts.

Even though everyone has been standing for nearly six hours, and has not eaten lunch or dinner. But no one was willing to leave.

Until eight o'clock in the evening, the ALICE experiment officially came to an end.

But it's also a new beginning.

The ALICE experiment has generated a large amount of experimental data, and everyone will analyze these data in the next few months or even years.

From these massive data, the mysteries of the universe can be resolved. Its difficulty is no less than that of cracking the bank vault password.

However, Xiang Nan has confidence in himself.

Because he had consulted relevant papers and reports before coming here, he had mastered the secret key to crack the code.

In this way, the difficulty of cracking is naturally greatly reduced.

At that time, everyone is still at a loss, and when he is at a loss, he will be able to go one step ahead, publish relevant papers first, and pick the fruits of victory before everyone else.

So Xiang Nan is now full of ambition.
