Chapter 377 Let me take charge of this project
With the ultra-high computing speed of the Island Quantum Computer, as long as it is given enough time, the amount of calculations it can complete is so huge that it is unimaginable.
At this time, Xu You still had a glimmer of hope in his heart that his predictions about these data might not be accurate.
Perhaps in the future a superconductor will suddenly be calculated, and the superconducting critical temperature will directly exceed this predicted limit.
A few days later.
The Island quantum computer has completed calculations of the superconducting properties of countless types of matter.
What made Xu You and other team members happy was.
In the past few days, the calculated superconducting materials and superconducting critical temperatures have achieved many breakthroughs.
From 203K to 204K, 205K...
Even every time, it may only break 1K, or even less than 1K.
But in the field of superconductivity, such a breakthrough is of epoch-making significance.
Unfortunately, there is no superconducting material whose superconducting critical temperature exceeds 210K.
This 210K has become a new bottleneck.
Xu You didn't know what the reason was.
"It seems that my high-temperature superconductivity mechanism cannot completely solve the problem of superconductors."
In the world of superconductors, there is a very strange phenomenon.
The so-called "high temperature" is actually much lower than "room temperature".
Xu You felt that it was this distorted concept of "high temperature" that limited his high-temperature superconductivity mechanism.
If we want to achieve new breakthroughs in superconductivity research, we need more mature mechanisms .
Such a result is far from being a complete death sentence for room-temperature superconductors.
…
The calculations of the island quantum computer are still continuing, but Xu You knows that according to the current trend, it will be difficult to achieve a breakthrough in the superconducting critical temperature in the short term.
Even though Xu You has convinced himself, it is still not easy to let it go completely.
When Lu Zhiyao saw Xu You again and saw Xu You's expression, she also discovered something.
"Why, have you encountered any problems recently?"
Every time Xu You had something on his mind, Lu Zhiyao could tell immediately.
Xu You was a little skeptical about whether Lu Zhiyao studied philosophy or psychology.
"We have encountered some difficulties. A technology that we once thought we could achieve may never be within our reach."
Due to confidentiality reasons, Xu You could not reveal any specific information to Lu Zhiyao and could only explain it in this abstract way.
"In fact, this can also be a beautiful thing. Just like the coastline, it is out of reach, but in the process of pursuing it, it brings us infinite beauty."
After hearing Lu Zhiyao's philosophical explanation, Xu You suddenly had a different feeling.
This reminded Xu You of the day in his second year of high school when his life changed.
On that day, Xu You made the most important choice in his life.
Faced with the temptation of being able to directly see the answers to the questions, Xu You still made a decisive choice to improve his abilities through continuous progress.
Xu You didn't know if the world would have changed more if he had chosen .
But life would definitely not be as fulfilling and happy as it is now.
If you know nothing about various knowledge and are merely a porter or a knowledge puppet.
Xu You would fall into endless anxiety every day.
This feeling is likely to make Xu You lose the motivation to live.
And now, even if we encounter some difficult problems, they are always difficult to solve.
But it's more of disappointment, not despair.
As long as Xu You maintains his pursuit of knowledge, he will continue to explore the path of truth.
"Thank you, Yaoyao, it's great to have you."
Every time when Xu You was in a low mood, Lu Zhiyao could help him get out of the trough quickly and cheer up again.
"Hey, why are we two being polite? How are you doing lately? Have you been overworked? Come, let me take a closer look."
"Don't worry, I'm in good health recently, I won't do that again."
"We still need to keep exercising. Come on, let's go for a run!"
"Walk!"
…
After spending a happy evening with Lu Zhiyao.
Xu You has completely eliminated the negative emotions about the failure of the search for room-temperature superconductors.
Next, Xu You needs to conduct research on the tens of thousands of new superconductors that have been discovered recently.
It is definitely impossible to prepare and study all these superconductors.
Xu You’s current plan is to first study superconductors with relatively high superconducting critical temperatures.
Not only because these superconductors with higher superconducting critical temperatures will have greater practical value in the future.
Another very important reason is the error between the predicted superconducting critical temperature and the actual one.
In previous research, Xu You concluded that as the superconducting critical temperature of superconducting materials gradually increases, this error tends to become larger overall.
The reason for this phenomenon may be that the amount of data on high-temperature superconductors is insufficient, resulting in insufficient accuracy of the prediction model.
These problems need further research to be solved.
But in the next research work, Xu You did not want to go to the outside high-temperature superconductivity project group to conduct these researches as he did before.
Xu You wanted to set up the project site directly inside Ji University.
In addition to being more convenient, Xu You also wanted to have more power in the project.
Xu You was not the person in charge of the superconducting project before, and Xu You could understand it.
After all, I am a newcomer and it is not easy to control those professors who are two generations older than me.
After going through so much, Xu You has fully acquired this ability.
"It would be difficult to talk to Academician Xing Shuping directly about this issue."
Academician Xing Shuping was the nominal head of the previous high-temperature superconductivity project.
In Xing Shuping's mind, Xu You is the actual core of the high-temperature superconductor project.
But if Xu You told Xing Shuping directly, I think as the project leader, Xu You really couldn't open his mouth to say it.
“That’s right!”
At this moment, Xu You suddenly thought of someone——
Wu Jing.
Xu You felt that Wu Jing might be able to help him with this matter since she could allow him to participate in so many internal projects.
Thinking of this, Xu You contacted Wu Jing.
"Mom, I need your help with something. If you have time, please give me a call."
Not long after Xu You sent the message, Wu Jing called Xu You.
This is another phone of Xu You, equipped with a strict security system and used only for internal calls.
"What's wrong, Youyou?"
"It's like this. I want to move the research site of the high-temperature superconductor project to Jijing University. I also want to reorganize the members of the project team..."
