Chapter 202 This is Dimensionality Reduction Attack
Compared to those netizens who have already begun to imagine the applications of room-temperature superconductors.
Xu You did not think that far ahead, but kept his feet on the ground and devoted to the project at hand.
At present, the team has only completed the preparation of 150K superconductors.
Because the material has just been prepared, the process for material molding is not yet mature.
So far, this is only a result in the experimental stage and has not yet entered the application stage.
When it comes to material preparation and molding, Xu You only has a superficial understanding and can't help much for now.
Xu You could only plan the next stage of superconducting material calculations to see if he could discover some materials with higher superconducting critical temperatures and that are easier to prepare.
After completing the planning work for superconducting material calculations.
Xu You temporarily put aside his team work.
One reason is that before the supercomputer completes the calculation, Xu You cannot make any other contributions to the team.
On the other hand, Xu You will not only be involved in the work of this project.
In addition, Xu Youke also has the identity of a student.
After three semesters of study, Xu You has obtained credits in multiple subjects.
As long as he completes his graduation defense, Xu You will be able to obtain his undergraduate degree.
Although the project is very important, the undergraduate thesis defense is also something that cannot be ignored.
Of course, for Xu You now, this is not a difficult thing.
Xu You didn't even need to do his graduation project again.
As long as he could take out any of his previous achievements and complete the defense normally, Xu You would definitely be able to get the honor of an outstanding graduation thesis.
“Take the paper on superconductivity of metal atom clusters.”
Xu You feels that for a defense at the level of undergraduate thesis defense, it is not appropriate to bring up topics such as the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity.
According to some people, this is an achievement worthy of being shortlisted for the Nobel Prize in Physics.
It would be embarrassing if the teacher doesn’t understand and doesn’t know what questions to ask.
Although the topic of metal atomic cluster superconductivity is also at the "Nature" level, it is relatively easy to understand. Even ordinary people can understand some of the content.
After deciding on the topic, Xu You reorganized the previous paper to meet the format of an undergraduate thesis and made a corresponding PPT.
As Xu You's thesis instructor, Qiao Sen seemed particularly relaxed.
Although Xu You is nominally only a sophomore student.
However, he has published more than ten papers in several top journals.
Things like revising the paper don't need to be something Qiao Sen needs to worry about at all.
"Xu You, since I am your instructor, I cannot be a judge during your defense. But I believe this should not be a problem for you."
"Don't worry, Teacher Qiao. I've seen a lot of big things before. I don't have to worry about an undergraduate thesis defense."
As they chatted, the two couldn't help but smile at each other.
Indeed, Xu You has now had the experience of speaking in front of many leaders of the aerospace system at the Suzhou Satellite Launch Center, telling about his achievements.
He is also the chief researcher in the National Superconducting Project, leading several senior professors.
For a Xu You like this, attending a graduation defense really feels like a dimensionality reduction attack.
Xu You didn't even attend the preliminary defense because there was really no need for it.
On the day of graduation defense, Xu You was the first to come to the stage.
Not for anything else, just to finish the defense quickly so that I can proceed to the next work.
After walking onto the stage and seeing the teachers and students sitting below, Xu You remained calm.
Many of the teachers below are professors and associate professors at Jilin University, and can be regarded as top scientific researchers in the country.
The other students who participated in the graduation defense were all seniors, and were two years senior to Xu You.
But in Xu You's eyes, such a scene is really nothing.
Xu You has come into contact with too many professor-level figures, and many of them are more powerful than the teachers sitting in the audience.
And these seniors...
Many of them had taken classes with Xu You.
That’s right, it was Wang Xiangwu’s atomic physics class.
Before Xu You officially enrolled in school.
They have already felt the fear of being dominated by Xu You.
They also didn't expect that this time, they would appear in the graduation defense classroom at the same time as this junior who was two years younger than them.
"It feels a bit strange to be participating in the defense with a sophomore student."
"Think about it from another perspective. This is a future Nobel Prize winner. Isn't it our honor to be able to defend thesis with Xu You?"
"But since he was the first to go up, will the evaluation standards be raised today? I heard that it was a Nature paper. How could ordinary undergraduates like us possibly reach such a level?"
Xu You politely bowed to the teachers in the audience and began his defense.
"Hello, teachers. I am Xu You, a sophomore student at Heqing College. Now I will begin my defense..."
With the experience from the previous few times, Xu You was in a very relaxed state during the defense.
Xu You didn't even need to look at the content on the PPT, he could give the lecture without a script.
After 8 minutes, Xu You finished his presentation of the paper.
The entire time was managed just right, without wasting time on reading PPT, and the key points of the paper were highlighted very well.
After Xu You finished his statement.
The judges looked at each other, all with smiling expressions on their faces.
At this time, the judges are needed to ask questions to the students participating in the defense.
But they all knew the origin of Xu You's paper, and they could not find any faults with it.
Even they themselves may not be able to write a paper of this level.
However, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.
"Xu You, can you tell me why you wanted to do such a project? "
Xu You thought about it and replied:
"When I was working on this project, I was still a freshman in college and was doing an internship in Professor Qiao Sen's laboratory. I read a lot of related papers at the time and suddenly found inspiration. I thought that some metal atomic clusters might have the properties of high-temperature superconductivity. Then I started this project."
"What difficulties did you encounter when you were doing this project?"
"The first difficulty was in the preparation of materials. Teacher Qiao helped contact teachers from the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Jilin University and learned that Jilin University had no experience in preparing such materials. Later, these materials were prepared in other schools."
Several teachers were also stunned after hearing this.
Wow, this is a subtle criticism of Ji University’s low level of engineering.
