In the living room of a Zhongshan International villa.
A household robot about half the height of a person with a cylindrical shell connected to a mechanical arm and various functional equipment brought three cups of coffee and placed them on the coffee table.
Professor Dobrik sat on the sofa with a cautious expression. He rubbed his hands and fidgeted for a while before he coughed softly and mustered up the courage to speak.
"Let me introduce myself, I am …"
"Rudy Dobrik, professor at the University of Brussels, Wei Hong, professor at the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences." Lu Zhou looked at the surprised expressions of the two for a while. He picked up the coffee cup on the table and took a sip as he said, "There's no need to introduce myself. You probably know me."
"You … know us?" Wei Hong looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief. In addition to surprise, there was also a hint of excitement on his face.
It was not easy to leave an impression on this big shot in the academic world.
Especially since Lu Zhou could match his name to his face, that was even more impressive.
"It's not too late to know each other now." Lu Zhou took off the AR glasses on the bridge of his nose. He clipped it to his collar, then leaned forward slightly to look at the two of them. He said, "I originally planned to take a break for two days before going to the ILHCRC to talk to you guys, but since you guys are already here, let's get straight to the point."
Professor Dobrik nodded immediately. He did not dare to waste Lu Zhou's time. He immediately took out the paper he printed before coming to Jinling from his briefcase and handed it to Lu Zhou.
However, after Lu Zhou took it, he only glanced at it, then threw it back to Professor Dobrik.
"I've read all these things, you don't have to show me again."
"Uh, don't you need to review it?"
"No, if it's research that interests me, I'll remember it after reading it once." Lu Zhou looked at Professor Dobrik, who had a hesitant look on his face. He continued, "Tell me about the experiment in detail. How did you find out that the z particle interferes with gravity when it spreads from a high dimension to a low latitude? I'm more interested in this part."
Dobrik and Professor Wei Hong exchanged glances. Finally, Professor Wei spoke.
"Let me explain this part. Speaking of which … it's quite unexpected."
Lu Zhou looked at him and nodded.
"Please begin."
"As detailed as possible."
This was what had happened.
Ever since the Z particle theory was proposed last year, the physics community's vision was pushed into the high-dimensional field for the first time, and research in related fields immediately became a hot topic.
When Professor Dobrik recorded the data collected on the gravitational wave detector at the lunar scientific research station, he found that in the latest high-energy collision experiment, the gravitational wave data had a special disturbance.
This phenomenon aroused the interest of Professor Wei Hong, who worked in the Z particle research group. The two of them quickly wrote a report on this phenomenon and applied for a related topic.
Professor Wei Hong spent half an hour explaining all the work that had been done in the past half a year, as well as all the problems that had been encountered, from the beginning of the project to the beginning of the first half a year.
After listening to Professor Wei Hong, Lu Zhou nodded.
"I understand the general situation."
"The things you found are really interesting, and the research ideas are very novel … However, after listening to your statement, I have some other ideas."
Professor Dobrik spoke quickly.
"Please go ahead."
Lu Zhou looked at Professor Dobrik's excited look and spoke with a smile.
"Don't be so excited, it's just an idea, it may not be right … It may not even be right."
He paused for a second and continued.
"According to Einstein's theory, as long as the inhomogeneity still exists somewhere in the universe, then gravity must be uneven. General relativity has revealed a more profound fact to us. Spacetime tells matter how to move, and matter tells spacetime how to bend. "
Lu Zhou thought for about ten minutes about how to describe the abstract idea in his heart.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He raised his head and snapped his fingers.
Soon after, the household robot that had poured coffee for the three of them slowly returned to the living room. This time, it brought a whiteboard. Immediately afterward, a drone flew over and placed a marker in Lu Zhou's hand.
Lu Zhou looked at the two dumbfounded people. He was about to speak, but he realized what they were thinking, so he smiled and spoke.
"Don't be too surprised, it's just something I made out of boredom. After all, it's a bit lonely to live in such a big house alone."
Hearing this, Dobrik and Wei Hong's eyebrows twitched, and they almost vomited blood.
It was something he made when he was bored, but it was alright …
Not to mention the fact that the household robot didn't look like a toy no matter how one looked at it. To be able to achieve these two elements of intelligence and flexibility to such an extent, it was actually made when one was bored?
How could they look down on high-tech companies that specialized in household machines?
Lu Zhou stood up from the sofa and walked to the side of the whiteboard.
After thinking for a moment, he printed the marker in his hand and began to use the language of mathematics and physics to weave those abstract and obscure speculations into a visible blueprint …
[rμν gμν rλgμν = 8πtμν]
[…]
Time slowly passed by.
The coffee on the coffee table had already turned cold.
Dobrik and Wei Hong stared intently at the whiteboard. They didn't dare to move their eyes away for a moment. They were afraid of missing a letter or even a punctuation mark. They wanted to imprint every detail on the whiteboard into their minds.
Finally, the tip of the pen stopped moving on the whiteboard.
Lu Zhou looked back at the two physics professors sitting on the sofa. He gently placed the marker next to the whiteboard.
"Basically, this is what I can think of for the time being … It might seem a little difficult, but if you look at it twice, it should be quite easy to understand."
Just a little difficult?
Professor Dobrik and Professor Wei Hong couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts.
They were able to barely keep up with his thoughts because they had been studying this field for more than half a year. They hadn't relaxed since half an hour ago.
It was hard to imagine that Lu Zhou thought of these things on a whim.
Wei Hong looked at the content on the whiteboard. He calmed down and raised his hand.
"Can I take a photo?"
Lu Zhou walked to the sofa and sat down. He picked up the cold coffee and took a sip. He smiled and spoke.
"Of course you can. The purpose of writing so much is to give you some inspiration for your research. If you forget it later, wouldn't I have said it for nothing? "
Lu Zhou looked at the two people who decisively took out their phones to take photos.
"Spacetime tells matter how to move, and matter tells spacetime how to bend. This is the core idea of this research idea. The steps on the whiteboard are just some framework content, and many of them are not perfect.
"For example, in the first part, we should first set up a control group, calculate the gravitational anomaly of the z particle, and derive the gravitational fluctuation formula of the z particle. This way, the situation should be much better …"
At the critical moment, Lu Zhou's phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.
When Lu Zhou saw the caller, he was slightly stunned. He immediately stopped talking and looked at the two of them with an apologetic smile.
"Sorry, you guys study it first, I'll take a call."
Lu Zhou stood up and walked to the side with his phone in his hand.
However, he didn't know that his few words had set off a storm in the hearts of Wei Hong and Professor Dobrik, who were repeatedly figuring out the contents on the whiteboard.
Calculate the gravitational anomaly …
Derive the gravitational fluctuation formula of the z particle …
Wei Hong's eyes flashed with excitement, and his fists involuntarily clenched.
Just a moment ago!
Even though it was only for a moment!
He seemed to have some ideas …
