I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

His girlfriend is sick, so living with him is more at ease. Shen Qi hopes that Ouye can come to Princeton to study for a doctoral degree.

In fact, the original plan of the two was also the same, but there was some deviation in the operation link. After graduating from undergraduate, Ouye failed to enter the graduate school of Princeton as he wished.

Ouye is facing a second choice. This opportunity should not be missed. Princeton is the best choice for Ouye, whether it is in terms of couple relationship, mutual care and support, academic platform and future career development. After all, Princeton is the best choice for Ouye. The highest temple of basic mathematics.

Princeton's doctorate in mathematics has more or less advantages in resources, and Shen Qi has already deeply experienced the energy and international influence of Princeton.

However, Wangzitun is not a bus station, so Ouye can go wherever he wants?

She wanted to go to Princeton for a Ph. D., only if a professor wanted her.

Shen Qi can't accept Ouye as a student, unless he breaks up with Ouye and breaks off the relationship with his lover.

After breaking up, Shen Qi will accept Ouye as a student again, isn't it a pain in the ass?

After the 1980s, teacher-student romance was not allowed in formal American colleges and universities, which stemmed from some scandals.

Most formal U.S. colleges and universities, including Princeton, stipulate that professors are not allowed to have romantic relationships with students who take their classes or supervise students.

If the student does not attend a certain professor's class and is not guided by a certain professor, in this case, he can fall in love with the professor, because the professor's rights cannot bring professional convenience to the student.

So Ouye needs to impress a certain professor in Princeton's Department of Mathematics through his real talents, and this professor cannot be Shen Qi.

"Little Yezi, I hope you come to Princeton because I can take better care of you. Academically speaking, I don't want to be your instructor. Once you accept my academic ideas and repeat my mathematical methods , you will never be able to surpass me. What I can't do, you can't do, and I can't solve the problem, you still can't do anything." Shen Qi had his own ideas, and he told Ouye.

"Well, I understand." Ouye understands that academic "inbreeding" is not necessarily a good thing. She studied with Gong Changwei for three semesters as a graduate student. Before that, she passively chose Columbia University. Now it seems that this passive choice has a lot of benefits , different academic ideas are fused together, 1+1\u003e2.

"If you can come to PSU to study for a Ph. D., and study with a certain big cow for a period of time, it is also the leader of all schools. The three schools of Yanda University, Columbia University, and PSU are deeply integrated. Niu Yezi."

"Professor Shen, you are the best."

"Okay, okay, let's stop bragging about business, and turn off the lights and go to sleep."

"Qi, did I hold you back?"

"Then you can surpass me, I believe you can do it."

"I mean, I'm not in good health, it's a waste of your energy to take care of me...I...I..." As he spoke, Ouye sobbed, blaming himself very much.

"So you have to get better quickly. I don't believe it. There is no doctor in the world who can cure you? I give them a few years to study medicine. After a few years, they still can't cure you. Then I Come."

Shen Qi has long discovered that there is no medical subject in the system. He wonders whether chemistry + biology equals half medicine?

The top chemistry level + the top biology level may help Ouye regain his health. Still have to frantically rack up Xueba points, just in case.

"You come to treat my illness..." Ouye is not in good health, but she has a positive heart to seek treatment. She has a boyfriend and everything. She wants to live a few more years.

"Don't look down on me, Ouye, I'm a person with perfect scores in science and technology in the college entrance examination. Do you know what it means? It means that I have perfect scores in chemistry and biology."

Shen Qi recommended several professors from the Department of Mathematics of Princeton to Ouye, and asked Ouye to apply for a doctoral position in the Department of Mathematics of Pudong University according to the normal process.

During the week of waiting for the results of Ouye's physical examination, Shen Qi returned to Princeton, and he wanted to speed up the research progress in condensed matter physics.

Mathematics is the fire that lights the lamp of physics.

Physics is a lamp that illuminates the path of chemistry.

Chemistry is the road leading to the pit of biology.

Creatures are pits... Shen Qi couldn't remember what the last sentence said.

Through several months of in-depth research, Shen Qi found that the research trend of condensed matter physics in the last ten years has been quietly changing. Simple materials complicated by artificial microstructures or nanostructures have become fashionable. Complex materials such as complex oxides, organic materials, polymers and biopolymers, etc.

The intersectionality of condensed matter physics is very strong. In this field, physics, mathematics, and chemistry are criss-crossed. There is me in you, and you in me.

The criss-cross feature of condensed matter physics is completely in line with the development philosophy of the Shen School.

With the deepening of research, Shen Qi also encountered some bottlenecks in condensed matter physics.

The level of physics and mathematics is definitely enough, Shen Qi's bottleneck is chemistry.

My girlfriend is in poor health. She has taken medicine for so many years, but it has not been cured.

It must be the medicine.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Qi adjusted his chemistry level appropriately.

Chemistry: Level 3 → Level 4, Level 4 → Level 5, Level 5 → Level 6.

Chemistry is first promoted to level 6, which is a rank between the professional level and the elite level.

The urgency to heal his girlfriend is understandable, but the rhythm of the upgrade cannot be messed up.

Shen Qi's personal experience told him that at the stage of level 6, theoretical knowledge should be supplemented step by step.

After the college entrance examination, Shen Qi has basically never touched chemistry. Compared with physics, which is relatively solid, he needs to learn more about chemistry.

Tonic chemistry should start with the four basic chemistry of organic, inorganic, analytical, and physical chemistry.

For the supplement and assistance of condensed matter physics, the four major chemistry are very important. Shen Qi chose to start with the most basic branch of chemistry——inorganic chemistry.

No matter how theoretical condensed matter physics is, the object of its research is real matter, and it ultimately needs to serve the reality and be tested by the reality.

Shen Qi does not need to do experiments, but he must understand the physical and chemical properties of the research object of condensed matter physics.

Crystal structure is an important research content in condensed matter physics.

The crystal structure of most inert elements such as Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, etc. is face centered cubic (fcc).

The crystal structure of metal elements is mainly divided into three kinds of packing, Cu, Ag, Au, Al, Pd... the close packing structure is fcc.

Co, Ru, Os, Sc, Y, La... are hcp (hexagonal close-packed).

Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs... are bcc (body-centered cubic), and its nearest neighbor coordination number z=8 is also low, but there are 6 ligands at a slightly larger distance, and its The Wigner-Seitz cell is a truncated octahedron with 24 identical vertices...

Shen Qi needs to be familiar with these theories, physics and chemistry are indistinguishable from each other in the crystal section of condensed matter physics.

Self-study inorganic chemistry for a few days, time is limited, Shen Qi's learning is relatively simple, but he has a feeling of epiphany.

Shen Qi chose the direction of his master's thesis in condensed matter physics as "topological and geometric properties of defects". The intervention and assistance of chemistry allowed him to see the direction of the crystal problem that had troubled him, and the theory of homotopy groups required the use of complex topology. scientific means to optimize defect definition in continuum and crystals.

Mathematics, physics, and chemistry are closely intertwined in this subject, which is a test of the researcher's comprehensive strength in science. Fortunately, Shen Qi has a perfect score in science. His mathematics, physics, and chemistry grades are 13, 10, and 6 respectively. A whole new academic stage.
