Chapter 1291: The Effect of the Z Particle Transition on Spacetime Curvature

The phone call ended.

Lu Zhou gently exhaled the air in his chest, he put down his phone and looked at the thick pile of draft papers on the table. He had a smile of relief on his face.

“Thirty-one days… This is probably the longest time I have been in a retreat.” Lu Zhou looked at the calendar on his phone and sighed.

When was the last time I felt this way?

I don’t even remember.

Ever since he reached level 10 in mathematics, most of the difficult mathematics calculations had become meaningless to him. Whenever he saw a mathematical formula, using his mathematical intuition, he was able to quickly pinpoint a few possible solutions.

For other people, thinking about high-dimensional space consumed almost all of their brainpower. But for him, abstract differential manifolds were as simple as Lego.

But this time, the situation was different.

When he wrote down the first line of the formula, his mathematical intuition did not tell him which direction to go in. The messy clues were entangled, making it difficult to figure out the solution.

As he continued to try different methods and explored the depths of this maze, more and more difficulties and traps began to manifest.

Lu Zhou wondered more than once whether his conjecture was unsolvable.

Fortunately, he did not give up. In the end, he found a suitable differential manifold in the complex plane. Using the method of algebraic geometry, he converted it into algebraic form and integrated it into the corresponding function for high-dimensional space. He finally found the way out of the maze…

“This is a classic high-level topology problem, just like the Poincaré conjecture…”

Lu Zhou twisted the pen in his hand. He looked at the draft paper and smiled as he talked to himself.

“But it is much more difficult than the Poincaré conjecture. It involves far more than just a few differential manifolds or certain types of high-dimensional spaces.”

“Fortunately, this is my expertise.”

The first Millennium Prize Problem he solved was the solution existence for the Navier–Stokes equations.

Back then, he constructed a differential manifold called the L-manifold, which knocked down the huge problem that plagued fluid dynamics engineers.

He had used this weapon to kill many dragons guarding the treasure.

Using a similar method, he once again killed a monster that was blocking the gap between human civilization and the deepest mysteries of the universe.

And this monster was far more powerful than the average monster.

And the treasure guarded by it was far more valuable than the Millennium Prize Problems…

“Time and space dictate how matter moves, matter dictates how space and time bend.

“Particles in the n-dimension don’t move to the n-1 dimension for no reason. But once this transition occurs, it opens a channel between the string and the matter.

“This channel can be defined in a mathematical way.”

Lu Zhou looked at the fully-written piece of paper, at the formula that could change the future of human civilization. He had a smile of victory on his face.

“The next step is to enter it into the computer.”

It would be a shame if he couldn’t share his result with the rest of the world.

Lu Zhou spent about two hours reorganizing the proof process on the draft paper. He then entered it into the computer.

“The Effect of the Z particle Transition on Spacetime Curvature”

When Lu Zhou finally finished editing the paper, he uploaded the paper to arXiv, leaned back on his chair, and stretched his aching shoulders.

“The next step is to prove my conjecture experimentally.”

The physics community might not accept his conjecture immediately. But as the chairman of the ILHCRC, he had the authority on how to use next year’s funds.

After the Z particle incident, almost no one could challenge his authority. Even if all of the board members voted against him, the vast majority of physicists at the ILHCRC would definitely be on his side.

“Let me think… Deploy a Z particle clock in the geosynchronous orbit and the moon orbit respectively? No, wait, the distance between the moon and the earth is a bit too short. Let’s switch to Mars.”

The consignment work and the order for the “Z particle clock” could be handled by the Lunar Orbit Committee.

Lu Zhou already had a complete blueprint in his mind for how to conduct the entire experiment.

He only wanted to do one thing.

Which was to share the joy in his heart with the person he loved the most…

“Xiao Wang, send a message to Wang Peng and ask him to pick me up.”

[Yes, Master. ( ́ー∀ー`)]

…

When Lu Zhou left the house, it was already ten o’clock in the evening. When he sat in the Electric Purple parked downstairs, snow was falling from the sky.

Wang Peng, who started the car, asked casually when he was looking at the snowflakes under the street lights, “It’s already ten o’clock, are we still going?”

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said, “Can we arrive before eleven?”

“Won’t take that long, ten-thirty should be fine.”

“In that case, let’s go.”

After about a 20-minute drive, a purple car stopped at the entrance of the luxurious residential complex near the high-tech zone.

Lu Zhou passed the face recognition access gate. He walked into the building with an umbrella. He went into the elevator, arrived at the floor, then gently pressed the doorbell.

Soon, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind the door, which was then followed by a voice.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me.”

The door opened with a warm breeze. A look of joy and surprise appeared behind the door.

“What are you doing here? Didn’t even tell me you were coming… It’s so messy inside, give me a second.”

Chen Yushan suddenly realized that she was wearing pajamas. She had no makeup on and her hair was messy. She wanted to close the door.

Fortunately, Lu Zhou reacted quickly. He used his foot to block the door.

“Do you want me to freeze outside?”

Even though there was central heating in the hallways, it was still a bit cold. By the time she changed clothes and put on makeup, Lu Zhou would have already frozen to death.

Chen Yushan suddenly noticed the snow on his shoulders. She blushed and said, “I was about to sleep. I didn’t know it’s snowing outside… Come in then.”

After entering the house, Lu Zhou put on slippers and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Chen Yushan came out of the kitchen with two cups of hot milk. She placed them on the coffee table.

“Are you cold? Drink this. By the way, your retreat is over?”

After testing the temperature of the milk, Lu Zhou took a sip.

As the warm fluid entered his throat and stomach, he felt the cold and exhaustion in his body being washed away.

“Yeah, it’s over.”

“So, it seems like you discovered something important again.” She was sitting across from Lu Zhou. Her beautiful face seemed to be glowing, making Lu Zhou’s heart skip a beat.

“Good guess.” Lu Zhou smiled and suddenly thought of something. He said, “I want to give you a present on Valentine’s Day.”

When Chen Yushan heard about Valentine’s Day gifts, she suddenly became excited and asked curiously, “What gift?”

Lu Zhou smiled mysteriously.

“If I tell you now, there is no surprise.

“You’ll know when it’s Valentine’s.”

The snow outside the window was getting bigger and bigger, and the snowflakes soon gently covered the trees and windows.

The visible things left were the street lights and car lights.

Today was no different than any other day.

The only difference was that…

Because of a paper that suddenly appeared on arXiv, physicists living in the eastern hemisphere had begun to lose sleep…
