Chapter 306 Gauss’s Treasure (Part 1)
"Fala grains."
Facing Xu Yun's proposal, Faraday gently touched his chin with his thumb, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes.
Tell the truth.
Putting your own name in front of a certain phenomenon or new substance is like a succubus in a short movie, and few scientists can resist its temptation.
For any scientist, this is a supreme honor.
The so-called feedback about good or bad character is not the matter itself, but whether the naming method is legitimate or not.
If all is clear.
Then even the top guys like Mavericks and Lao Ai will not refuse this good reputation.
For example, the famous Newton's rings, or the element einsteinium with atomic number 99 - this is named after Lao Ai's surname.
In addition, Einstein is also the unit of energy contained in photons. The energy of 1 mol of photons is called 1 Einstein, represented by the symbol u.
Another example is the Higgs particle, etc.
Throughout the history of science.
As long as the means are justified, few people would be dissatisfied with naming a phenomenon after themselves.
Of course.
Except Poisson.
Now Faraday learned that 'Fat Fish' did not name the special particles, and there was no similar concept in the East. In addition, Xu Yun also took the initiative to propose the idea of 'Fara particles'
It is obviously impossible for Faraday not to be moved.
But on the other hand, Faraday also knew one thing very well:
That is, in this experiment, I am only an operator at most. If I share 20% to 30% of the credit, it will be overwhelming. The big share will definitely go to the fat fish.
This is a bottom line issue.
Think of this.
Faraday pondered for a moment, made a decision in his heart, and said to Xu Yun:
"Classmate Luo Feng, I'm not being modest. I just did a small amount of work in the experiment and I don't deserve such a big credit."
"So I think how about this, classmate Luo Feng, how about naming it after you?"
Xu Yun was stunned:
"Me?"
Faraday nodded and continued:
"You are a descendant of Mr. Fatty Fish, and this experiment was recreated by your hands, so I might as well name it after your surname, Luo Feng, and call it Luo Li"
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Before Faraday could finish the second half of his sentence, a large stream of cold sweat broke out on Xu Yun's forehead, and he waved his hands crazily:
"Professor Faraday, this name is absolutely unacceptable!"
Faraday looked at him in surprise, frowned and asked:
"Why not? Don't you like Luo Li?"
Xu Yun didn't explain much, but still shook his head firmly:
"Don't ask, this word is really bad. It's even better than Uzi."
Just kidding
Maybe there is nothing wrong with the word Luo Li, but if you add expressions such as 'Luo Li is really interesting' and 'We will continue to study Luo Li today', it will easily trigger the 404 method.
Therefore, no matter what, Faraday's idea cannot be implemented.
"Professor Faraday, why don't you hire someone else?"
"That can't be called Faraday grains. I can't take the credit from Mr. Fatty Fish. This is a great disrespect to the predecessors!"
"Aba Aba Aba."
at the same time.
Seeing the dispute between the two over naming rights, Gauss suddenly spoke:
"Michael, classmate Luo Feng, I have an idea. How about you listen to me for a few words?"
Xu Yun and Faraday had not raised their heads at this time. They both stopped arguing after hearing this and looked at Gauss at the same time.
Gauss coughed slightly and said slowly:
"Michael didn't want to take all the credit alone, but Mr. Fat Fish didn't leave a similar naming, which led to your differences in opinions, right?"
Xu Yun and Faraday looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Gauss smiled again and adjusted his glasses. The lenses reflected a wise light under the sunlight that shone into the room:
"In that case, why not just take one syllable from each of Mr. Fat Fish's and Michael's names and create a compound word?"
As he spoke, he came to the desk and picked up a pen and paper.
Wrote the names of Fat Fish and Faraday:
Feiyu.
Michael Faraday.
Then he circled the syllables 'fei' and 'Fa' and wrote another word underneath:
Feifa. (Actually it should be Féifa, Armenian)
After writing this word, Gauss put down his pen and said to Xu Yun and Faraday:
"The word Feifa means 'limit' and 'boundary' in Armenian, and this unknown particle also fits this concept."
"It has both moral and commemorative significance, so I think we might as well call it Feifa particle."
"Feifa?"
Faraday repeated the word, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.
The name includes both Fatty Fish and himself. At the same time, the expression of Fat Fish first also reflects Fat Fish’s dominant position in the process of particle discovery.
Therefore, he couldn't help but look at Xu Yun and asked:
"It seems to be a good name, what do you think, Luo Feng?"
Xu Yun:
"."
At first glance, the word Feifa sounds like the pronunciation of the later International Football Federation.
That is the abbreviation FIFA of Fédération Internationale de Football Association.
But compared to Luo Li, this word is undoubtedly much more normal.
In addition, as Gauss said, the meaning of this word is surprisingly close to the concept of electrons.
What a wonderful coincidence
Think of this.
Xu Yun no longer hesitated and said to Gauss:
"Professor Gauss, I have no objection either."
Gauss snapped his fingers when he saw this, obviously a little happy with his idea:
"bingo!"
Ever since.
Feifa.
This word, which is a mixture of Chinese and Western bytes, is officially the name of ‘electron’ in this space and time.
After naming the unknown particles, or Feifa particles, everyone’s task today is officially concluded:
The preparation of piezoelectric ceramics only takes a day to dry and stand. Counting other pre-preparation processes, it will take at least two or three days to produce the actual product.
So it's quick.
Faraday called it quits.
Xu Yun also packed up his things and left the laboratory with Xiaomai and Babbage Ada.
As a result, he had just taken a few steps when a voice came from behind him:
"Classmate Luo Feng, please stay!"
Please stay.
These three words had a very special destructive power on later generations of Internet writers like Xu Yun, so he subconsciously stopped and turned to look behind him.
fine.
The one who came behind was not a certain Black Panther knight, but Riemann, a fat guy.
I saw Riemann trotting to Xu Yun's side, panting for two breaths, and said:
"Classmate Luo Feng, the teacher wants to see you for something."
Xu Yun was slightly stunned and asked:
"Professor Gauss is looking for me? Did he say something?"
Riemann nodded and glanced at the three wheat people beside Xu Yun:
"You will know the specific situation when you arrive."
Babbage had been busy with investment matters almost every day in the past few years, and naturally developed the ability to observe people's emotions.
Seeing Riemann keep looking towards him, he immediately said to Xu Yun:
"Since Professor Gauss has something to ask you, classmate Luo Feng, just follow Mr. Riemann there."
"Classmate Maxwell, Ada, let's leave first."
After saying that, he glanced at Xiaomai and Ada and left the scene quickly.
Although Xiaomai was very naive, he was not a fool. Seeing this, he hurriedly said to Xu Yun that he would see him in the dormitory, and then turned around and followed him.
Xu Yun watched the three people go away, and when they lost their bodies around the corner, he said to Riemann:
"Then Mr. Riemann, please lead the way."
Riemann nodded and led Xu Yun in another direction.
Xu Yun and Riemann were now acquaintances, and they walked and chatted along the way, which was not boring at all.
After a few minutes.
Xu Yun saw Gauss waiting on the other side of the building.
Riemann carried Xu Yun forward and said respectfully:
"Teacher, I brought classmate Luo Feng."
Gauss nodded to him:
"Thank you, Bornhard."
Riemann had already received Gauss's instructions in advance. Seeing that he had completed the task, he simply said:
"Then teacher, I won't disturb you for now."
After saying that, he patted Xu Yun on the shoulder, bowed to Gauss, turned around and walked out.
Gauss was obviously very relieved about his disciple. He didn't even look at Riemann. He turned to Xu Yunde and said:
"Come with me, classmate Luo Feng."
Xu Yun followed obediently.
The two walked for a while in the other direction, and after about ten minutes, they arrived outside a quiet forest.
Hidden among the green woods is a two-story building. The decoration is not elegant, but it is elegant and exquisite.
The white-gray mud walls combined with the light red roof tiles can't help but make people feel comfortable.
There is also a small garden enclosed by a fence outside the building. The grass is lush and green, in a proper petty bourgeoisie style.
It's obvious.
This attic was the temporary residence set up by Cambridge University for Gauss.
Then Gauss led Xu Yun to the entrance, took out the key and opened the door:
"Come in."
In line with the decorative style outside the house, the interior is also exquisite and elegant. The large windows make the house full of light, which is especially comfortable in winter.
After entering the house.
Gauss led Xu Yun straight through the hall and to the door of a side room.
Crunch——
Gauss pushed the door open and Xu Yun quickly saw the situation inside:
This is a study room of about twenty square meters. The bookcases are made of mahogany, but there are not many books in it.
In addition, there is a desk, a chair and a small sofa on the right wall for entertaining guests.
After entering the house.
Gauss still did not speak, but motioned to Xu Yun to close the door.
Then he walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a leather box, and said to Xu Yun:
"Classmate Luo Feng, help me move the box to the sofa."
Xu Yun said yes, quickly came to Gauss's side, picked up the suitcase and put it on the sofa.
The suitcase weighed about twenty or thirty kilograms. With Xu Yun's body, he needed both hands to lift it. No wonder Faraday called him for help.
After Xu Yun moved the boxes.
Gauss leaned down and entered the password on the password lock:
114514.
Click——
The suitcase opened with a sound.
Xu Yun stood aside with a well-behaved face.JPG, but he kept glancing into the suitcase dishonestly from the corner of his eyes.
I saw a pile of calculation papers and books in Gauss's precious suitcase. What Xu Yun saw were English, French, Arabic and other languages, filling the entire space.
Then Gauss stood up, pointed into the box and said:
"Classmate Luo Feng, you can start."
After hearing this meaningless sentence, a question mark appeared on Xu Yun's face:
"?"
Gauss raised his chin in a certain direction and explained:
"Didn't Michael say that the principle of piezoelectric ceramics you wrote can be exchanged for five volumes of my manuscript."
"I have already negotiated terms with Michael just now, so I asked Bornhard to find you."
"Most of my manuscripts are still in Göttingen, but the really important ones are kept in this box with me, so be careful not to damage them when you turn them over."
Xu Yun suddenly realized.
That’s it
He was still wondering why Riemann showed up at that time - they had just left the laboratory not long ago. If Gauss really had something to do with him, he could have spoken directly before leaving the laboratory.
During that time, Gauss was negotiating terms with Faraday.
Think of this.
Xu Yun could not help but feel curious, and asked Gauss:
"Professor Gauss, I wonder what the conditions are for you to negotiate with Professor Faraday."
Gauss glanced at him and raised the corner of his mouth slightly:
"Within a week, Michael will add three more chapters." (End of this chapter)
