Chapter 506 International Conference on Controlled Fusion

Stopping in his tracks, Lu Zhou cast a questioning look at the person who called him.

"You are?"

"Mihir Benderbauer, the chairman and chief technology officer of Tri-Alpha." Walking in front of Lu Zhou, Benderbauer stretched out his right hand and said with a smile, "I am very glad to meet you here. on you."

Tri-Alpha?

Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows with interest.

He had heard of Tri Alpha, a well-known company in the field of controlled nuclear fusion.

As a commercial controllable nuclear fusion company controlled by private capital, the big boss behind this company is Google, an Internet company that has always had a "clean energy complex".

In order to make faster progress in the experiments conducted by Tri-Alpha on the C2-U machine, Google also used its own advantages in information technology to tailor a set of "optometrist algorithms" for them, through more efficient A human-computer interaction solution to help nuclear fusion experiments more efficiently generate the plasma required for the experiment.

Not only is the old club awesome, Tri-Alpha is also very competitive, and independently developed a set of devices called "Field Reverse Configuration (FRC)". The appearance of this device looks like a long cylinder with several small cylinder-like devices connected in the middle, which can increase the plasma temperature more quickly than traditional microwave heating devices.

There is no doubt that whether it is the optometrist algorithm or the field reverse configuration device, it is a black technology in the field of controllable fusion.

It's just that Lu Zhou always felt that they seemed to focus on strange places.

After all, whether it is an advanced human-computer interaction scheme or a faster increase in plasma temperature, neither is the technical bottleneck faced by controllable nuclear fusion.

Holding his right hand and shaking it, Lu Zhou said, "It's also a pleasure to meet you here... May I ask what you can do for me?"

Benderbauer said with a smile: "Can I take a step to speak?"

Looking at Professor Li Changxia next to him, Lu Zhou handed him the handle of the suitcase.

"sorry to bother you."

Professor Li Changxia said with a smile: "It's okay, then I'll go upstairs first."

Lu Zhou: "Well, I'll be there soon."

After a brief separation, Lu Zhou followed in Benderbauer's footsteps and came to the coffee shop next to the hotel.

After finding a quiet place to sit down, Benderbauer picked up the menu casually.

"Would you like something?"

"Mocha is fine."

"A cup of mocha, a cup of black coffee."

"Okay gentlemen," jotted down in a small notebook, the waiter put away the menu and turned to leave.

After a while, the coffee was served quickly.

Looking at the coffee on the table, Lu Zhou leaned back on the chair and said in a chatty tone, "Now tell me, what are you planning to talk to me about?"

With fingers crossed on the table, Benderbauer looked at Lu Zhou with interest and said, "I heard you are interested in nuclear fusion research?"

Lu Zhou nodded: "Yes, this is a very challenging topic, but also meaningful enough."

Benderbauer: "May I ask if it's spiritual or monetary?"

Lu Zhou: "What do you mean?"

"Literally," he took a sip of the coffee and squeezed his eyes as if he was so bitter, Benderbauer threw two cubes of sugar into the cup, looked at Lu Zhou and continued, "If it's the latter If so, why don't you consider working with me?"

"Oh?"

"Whether it's $1 billion or $2 billion, it's other people's money, not yours. But if we join forces, we can make the company bigger and go public. Even if it's $10 billion, or even $100 billion, it's all It's conceivable."

"How about my proposal? The youngest Nobel Prize winner in history, Professor Lu who is known as a genius," said Benderbauer with a smile on his face, "I can assure you that you will at least get 5% of the shares, and its value will far exceed your imagination."

This is……

Want to pull yourself to help the platform?

Hearing this request, Lu Zhou shook his head with a smile, and put down the coffee cup in his hand.

"I thought you were going to talk to me about the FRC device."

"Thank you for the coffee, but I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't help you with this."

Apparently, he didn't expect Lu Zhou to refuse so simply, Benderbauer was slightly taken aback.

Seeing Lu Zhou stand up, he couldn't help asking.

"……why?"

Lu Zhou shook his head: "There is an old saying in Huaguo, different ways don't conspire with each other."

Looking at Lu Zhou in surprise, Benderbauer said in an unbelievable tone: "You don't... really expect to be able to make nuclear fusion?"

Lu Zhou: "About this question, why don't you ask the researchers in your company? I believe they will give you a rigorous and reliable answer from a professional perspective."

"I don't discuss this issue with them, it doesn't make any sense, their answer is always the same." Benderbauer shook his head, "Those who bet on ten years from now are geniuses, those who bet on twenty years from now are fools .”

Lu Zhou smiled and said.

"Then unfortunately, my answer is the same."

...

July 1.

The International Controlled Nuclear Fusion Exchange Conference officially kicked off.

At the first report meeting on the first day, Fei Jingti and Dian Cili yawned and came to the report hall after having breakfast, and found a seat in the back row.

Because their supervisor, Professor Yu Jinsong, couldn't come here temporarily, so before coming here, he specially assigned tasks to them, not only stipulating which lectures must be listened to, but also requiring them to take detailed meeting notes during the meeting.

Therefore, this academic conference is destined to not be able to catch fish as usual.

Soon, the report will begin.

The one who made the report on the stage was Professor Bottom from the Karam Nuclear Fusion Research Center, and the content of the report was a new discovery in the plasma interaction experiment.

The two of them dug out their notebooks, no matter whether they understood or not, they finally wrote down all the important parts.

About halfway through the report meeting, my eyelids were twitching, Fei Jingti suddenly lowered his voice, and said to Brother Dian who was sitting next to him: "In the past six months, when I was writing my thesis, I found something very interesting. things."

Dian Cili was slightly stunned: "What is it?"

Fei Jingti: "Obviously it's an easy thing to understand, but if you say it in academic language, you can confuse people."

Dian Cili: "For example?"

Fei Jingti: "For example, we see 'well-known' in the paper, maybe what the author of the paper actually wants to express is that the person in charge of checking the literature in their laboratory knows. Another example is 'prediction based on statistics', the corresponding Probably just 'We're just guessing, don't take it to heart when you see it.'”

Dian Cili: "Can you give a specific meaning?"

Fei Jingti: "A specific example? For example, this paper in your hand, look at the last few lines of his writing - we hope that this research will prompt scholars in this field to conduct further exploration..."

Dian Cili asked with great interest, "What do you mean?"

Fei Jingti: "It means to cheat me and put it here, whoever you like to do the follow-up work, I will quit."

"puff--"

Suppressing the weird, suppressed laughter, Dian Cili slammed his forehead on the table.

Fei Jingti gave him a bewildered look.

Is this guy such a low laugh?

With his back to the calculations written on the entire blackboard, Professor Bottom, standing on the stage, continued to speak in a gentle and slow voice.

"...we made high time-resolution measurements of the structure of the plasma using high-harmonic XUV generated by the interaction of the high-intensity laser and the plasma."

"As shown in the slideshow, we obtained a very interesting set of data from the observations, and derived a series of results from these results."

"This involves multi-scale nonlinear evolution and compressible turbulent mixing... It is not an easy task to solve it, but fortunately we have at least achieved phased results."

The audience was crowded, and the experts and scholars present were whispering to each other.

"...if the Kalam Nuclear Fusion Research Center really solves this problem, it will provide a theoretical basis for solving the problem of the magnetic surface tearing phenomenon in the tokamak device."

"Unbelievable... Do you think their data is reliable?"

"I don't know, I have to study it."

Satisfied to see the crowd whispering under the stage, Professor Bottom showed a smug smile on his face.

As he expected, their research results were amazing enough.

Soon, it was time for questions.

Looking at the person who raised his hand first, Professor Bottom nodded.

"Sir, do you have any questions?"

Standing up, Lu Zhou glanced at the formula on the blackboard and said.

"If I'm not mistaken, you have introduced differential geometry in your solution of nonlinear equations."

Pushing his glasses and looking at the Chinese scholar, Professor Bottom frowned.

"That's right, what's the problem?"

Lu Zhou sighed and said, "The idea of ​​introducing the L-manifold to solve the nonlinear topological transformation is correct, but your method is wrong. The L-manifold is not used in this way."

When questioned face to face, Bottom was not angry, but smiled instead.

In a sarcastic tone, he spoke.

"I don't know how you came to this conclusion, but it seems to me that you are making trouble out of no reason. There is nothing wrong with my calculation results. I know how to use the L-manifold, and I don't need you to teach me."

Scholars in the lecture hall talked a lot.

Looking at the commotion at the venue, Lu Zhou coughed lightly.

"The L-manifold you used was created by me."
