Chapter 158 Arriving in Switzerland!

On Sunday, as usual, Lu Zhou went to Ms. Yang's house to give his little apprentice extra lessons.

During dinner, thinking that he was leaving for Switzerland early next month, he said casually.

"I'm going to Europe in a few days, and I don't know how long I'll stay there. I've given you everything I need to teach you, and it's up to you during this time."

Although he won't be leaving next week, Lu Zhou still has a lot of preparatory work to do before departure, and he definitely won't be able to spare time to make up lessons for her during this time.

Han Mengqi asked curiously: "Going to Europe? What are you doing in Europe?"

"Participated in the LHCb project."

Han Mengqi tilted her head and asked, "LHCb?"

Lu Zhou explained casually: "A project about the Large Hadron Collider, on the border between Switzerland and France, near CERN."

"CERN?" For some reason, Han Mengqi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Is the abbreviation SERN?"

Lu Zhou was slightly stunned: "SERN? You spelled it wrong, it's CERN."

Han Mengqi suddenly looked serious: "Master, be careful, this may be a conspiracy by the agency."

Lu Zhou: ...?

Is this some new trick that he doesn't understand?

Coughing lightly, Lu Zhou forcibly changed the subject and asked, "Is there anything I can buy for you? Anyway, I'm on the way."

"Purchasing?" Han Mengqi was slightly stunned, then shook her head and said, "No need."

Lu Zhou asked casually, "Aren't you interested in cosmetics and skin care products?"

Speaking of it, it seemed that he rarely saw this little guy playing with cosmetics and other things, but various pillows and handicrafts were thrown in a pile in her room.

"My mother's company is in the business of fashion and luxury goods. Basically, she goes to Europe every two months. Didn't she say that?" Han Mengqi said nonchalantly, shaking her calf.

emmm...

Lu Zhou suddenly realized that there seemed to be no need to ask this question at all.

...

After joining the LHCb organization as an intern, although the organization did not arrange specific scientific research tasks for him, Lu Zhou felt that his knowledge level was not enough, so he consciously started to supplement the knowledge of quantum chromodynamics.

Specifically, it is to write papers.

During this period, another major event occurred in the mathematics world.

The German academic god Schulz successfully solved the special case of the Weight-monodromy conjecture, and published it in the latest issue of "Annual Mathematics".

Moreover, he used the "P.S theory" created by himself to solve this conjecture in the field of algebraic K-theory.

This achievement not only solved a world-class mathematical problem, but also provided his "P.S theory" with a classic example to prove its application value.

It seems that in less than a year, he has fulfilled the domineering declaration he made at the Mathematicians Conference-"use his own theory to solve an important conjecture of Deligne".

There is no suspense in the number theory award of the Cole Prize, and the light of the twin prime number conjecture will undoubtedly dominate the number theory field for 15 years.

The algebra prize of the Cole Prize, with the publication of this paper, has also been decided.

On a foreign mathematics forum, many good-natured people have begun to discuss the 2018 Fields Medal. There is no doubt that these two will be the strongest contenders for this award.

However, for this matter, Lu Zhou only learned about it, but did not pay much attention to it.

Algebraic K-theory is not the direction he is good at, and he only understands things in this direction.

As for that paper, if you want to understand it, you have to study Schultz's "P.S Theory" first. He is so busy that he has no time at all.

Finally, the time has come to May.

In order to stagger the peak tourist season, Academician Lu took Lu Zhou and set off for Geneva on the Friday after Labor Day.

In fact, there is another researcher at King University, a doctoral student led by Academician Lu, but he arrived in Switzerland last month and has been there for more than half a month. So on Lu Zhou's side, there are only him and Academician Lu.

There is no direct flight from Jinling to Switzerland, and there is no direct flight from Huaguo to Geneva. The group first flew to Shanghai, and then boarded a plane to Zurich, the largest city in Switzerland.

After more than ten hours of flight, the plane landed on the runway of the airport in the night.

After leaving the airport, outside the airport, next to a black Volkswagen, Lu Zhou finally saw this senior who only knew his name but never saw him.

"Hello, hello, I've heard you famous for a long time," Senior Brother Yan smiled and shook Lu Zhou's hand as soon as we met, "My name is Yan Xinjue, you can call me Senior Brother Yan."

Lu Zhou replied modestly: "Lu Zhou, I have achieved a little, it's not worth mentioning."

"Don't be so modest, you are the next Fields Medal winner, and we are unanimously optimistic about you in the alumni circle of Gold University!" Senior Brother Yan said with a smile.

"You're stressing me out."

Lu Zhou really felt the pressure on Shandan, a guy named Schulz in Germany, who seemed to be more open than him. Although he only published a dozen papers in total, almost every two papers was a mathematics award.

And he may have to wait until the end of the year for his first medal.

However, Senior Brother Yan didn't take it seriously, and patted Lu Zhou's shoulder with a smile.

"There is pressure to be motivated, and young people who love to fight will win. I am optimistic about you! I have already arranged the hotel. Come on, get in the car."

With that said, he took the suitcase from Academician Lu's hand, put it in the trunk, then returned to the driving seat, and started the car.

The car was on the road, Lu Zhou sat in the back row, and Academician Lu sat in the co-pilot seat.

Glancing at the car keys, Academician Lu asked casually.

"Your car is fine, where did you get it?"

Senior Brother Yan said with a smile, "I borrowed it from Professor Greer."

"You kid," Academician Lu shook his head, "Where is the project now?"

Brother Yan replied while driving: "The head of LHCb Europe requested a Dalitz diagram analysis of the resonance state when the baryon decays to the charmonium."

"There's something wrong." Academician Lu shook his head.

Lu Zhou asked: "Why do you say something is wrong?"

Brother Yan shrugged his shoulders and said in a joking tone: "Because the discovery of the pentaquark state is a foregone conclusion, we have been doing theoretical analysis since last year. The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Laboratory in the United States and the Moscow Institute of Experimental Physics in Russia I have found indirect evidence of the existence of this thing, if I still can't find this thing, I will eat this car."

Lu Zhou: "Then why bother?"

"It's also to publish more papers, to produce more results, and to ask for funds from member states," said Brother Yan casually. "Anyway, there are so many free labors, why not use them? Of course, it is indeed useful to do a check before the experiment." That's necessary, after all, it's just a few suites in a circle."
