The meal wasn't finished until eight in the evening.

The Wittengs had long been accustomed to the deliciousness of Chinese food during their stay in China, so they were not too morbid.

It was the Delina and Wiles couples who ate red, delicious and authentic Chinese food, as if they had opened a new world for them.

After the dinner, everyone drank tea in the living room and chatted.

At this moment, the knock on the door suddenly banged.

Pang Xuelin took a moment's notice and went to open the door.

He appeared in front of Deliny's assistant Eddie and a tall, thin man in his 50s with glasses.

Before waiting for Eddie to introduce, the thin man took the lead and said, "Hello Professor Pang, my name is David Gross, a professor of physics at Princeton University!"

"David Gross?"

Pang Xuelin was taken aback. The name was mentioned by Edward Witten.

David Gross, a professor of physics at Princeton University, had the highest academic career. He published a paper entitled "Ultraviolet Behavior of Non-Abelian Gauge Theory" in 1973, reporting on the phenomenon of quark asymptotic freedom. And given a negative β function, this theory reveals the structure of hadrons and explains strong interactions well, triggering storms in the physics world, and is one of the founders of quantum chromodynamics.

In the 1980s, Gross also collaborated with Jeffrey Harvey and others to construct hybrid strings, and initiated the first superstring revolution with Michael Green, John Schwartz, and Edward Witten.

When Pang Xuelin and Edward Witten created the M theory, they had referred to Gross's paper on the higher order of string perturbation as the chord's scattering amplitude behavior under the high energy limit.

After coming to Princeton from China, Pang Xuelin was still thinking about whether to communicate with the big brother, but he learned from his population that David Gross went to the European Nuclear Research Center in Switzerland half a year ago and never returned. .

Xi Pang Xuelin had some regrets at first, but he did not expect that the big man himself had not yet come to him, but he had come to the door.

"Professor Gross, Eddie, please come in!"

Pang Xuelin smiled at Gross and Eddie, and quickly turned away to let them in.

噢 "Oh, who do I say? Gross, old man, long time no see!"

Seeing Gross and Eddie coming in, Witten took a moment to stand up, walked forward, laughed, and embraced Gross.

Gadlinje and Wiles also approached Gross and greeted him.

Deligne then turned his eyes to Eddie and said, "Eddie, what's going on, why is Professor Gross here?"

Eddie said: "Professor Gross just got off the plane not long ago, and when I came back, I was looking for Professor Pang and Professor Witteng. I happen to know that you all ate at Professor Pang's house today and brought him over."

At this time, Witten and Gross were also trembling, and Witten curiously asked, "Gross, how did you find here? Is there anything urgent?"

Gross said, "Did you come up with P theory?"

Whitten was a little surprised, and a little surprised, "How do you know the M theory? The two papers have not been published in Science, are you one of the reviewers?"

Gross sighed: "It really is you!"

After a pause, Gross again said, "The two papers you and Pon were thrown to me by the editorial department of Science, Michael Green, John Schwartz, and Tullio Reggie. Both Green and Green are at the European Nuclear Research Center. I knew at a glance that the M theory thesis was yours. I did not expect that you and Professor Pang actually gave five kinds of perturbative string theory and eleven-dimensional hypergravity field theory. It ’s unified. In addition, the article on AdS / CFT duality is simply a pen of God, which greatly enhances the possibility of the existence of the M theory. You have lost a super hydrogen bomb to the theoretical physics community. These two days have been studying You and Pang's two papers, the more research the more interesting, so I rushed back from Switzerland by plane overnight and wanted to talk to you in person ... "

Whitten laughed and said, "So, have both Pang and my papers been drafted?"

Gross laughed: "I don't think it's a big problem, and it's expected to be published as soon as March."

格 With such a disruption by Gross, the people who had originally planned to disperse could not leave immediately.

Xi Pang Xuelin took Witten and Gross to the study, and the group talked about M theory.

Although Gadlinier and Wiles did not understand the cutting-edge research in theoretical physics, they also came along to make it lively.

Unconsciously, this gathering turned into a small academic seminar.

Gross discussed M theory back and forth with Witten and Pang Xuelin before they let them go.

At this time, it was eleven o'clock in the evening.

After Pang Xuelin had sent Witten away, it was already after twelve.

Xi Pang Xuelin went to take a bath first, then walked into the bedroom in a bathrobe.

沐 Wang Muhui is sitting on the bed and looking at the book. When she sees Pang Xuelin coming in, Wang Muhui laughs and said, "Did you finish talking?"

Xi Pang Xuelin smiled bitterly: "It's finally over. I was thinking of staying with you on New Year's Eve, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Wang Muhui laughed: "I think it's good!"

She went to the study to add tea several times. Although she didn't know what Pang Xuelin and Witten were talking about, judging from the expressions on the faces of these people, Pang Xuelin must have done something extraordinary.

"Well, Xiao Hui, it's getting late, let's go to bed earlier!"

Pang Xuelin flipped off the bedroom's ceiling light, leaving only the dim light of the desk lamp on the bedside table.

Xu Pang Xuelin turned over into the bed, and soon, the waves rolled up.

Uh ...

Fortunately, except for New Year's Eve, the next few days, Gross did not continue to find Pang Xuelin and Witten.

Xuan Pang Xuelin lived with An Mu a few days.

On February 16th, Pang Xuelin and Witten successfully received the receipt of the editorial department of Science. Their paper has successfully passed peer review and will be formally published in March.

Regarding this ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Neither Pang Xuelin nor Witten have made much waves in my heart.

Time passed day by day, and before we knew it, it was March 1.

On this day, Pang Xuelin had just finished Ponzi's geometry theory class and returned to his office. Deligne's secretary Eddie hurriedly walked in with a magazine.

"Professor Pang, this is the latest issue of Science, and Professor Deligne asked me to send it to you."

"Thank you!"

Xi Pang Xuelin took the magazine from Eddie, and at first glance at the cover, he couldn't help it.

科学 On the cover page of the science magazine, one left and one right are side-view photos of himself and Edward Witten, and in the center of the photo is a very large title.

"M theory-the ultimate theory of physics? 》
