Orion Crest, Series_1

Chapter 75: A treasure map

　　"WTF?!" Seeing Orion, Carella, who was sitting in the research team at Syracuse University, her eyes widened in surprise, and she subconsciously burst out.

　　Professor Brunos, who was sitting next to her, frowned and asked. "What's wrong?"

　　"Nothing ......"

　　How could she imagine that it had only been a month since she had seen him, and he was already done a great job and standing there? This was too shocking for her, who was also an intern.

　　On the other side, Wynston, who was sitting next to old Mr. Edward Witten, was also looking at the podium in amazement, and the shock in his heart wasn't much less than that of Joannes and the others, who were sitting a dozen metres away.

　　Wynston couldn't figure out how he, a maths guy, could be standing in that place.

　　Speaking of which, was he really involved in the experiment?

　　On the contrary, it was old Mr Edward Wynston, who didn't have much surprise in his eyes, but instead carried a bit of interest.

　　Obviously, he recognised that man.

　　And at this moment, he was also looking forward to it.

　　What amazing discovery would this young man, who had once shocked Princeton, make.

　　......

　　Standing on the podium, facing those pairs of waiting eyes, Orion took a deep breath and tried his best to keep his mind calm and not pay attention to those bigwigs sitting there.

　　Then, he slowly opened his mouth and said.

　　"I'm Orion from Gordon University, and I'm honoured to be involved in such international experiments as an intern, and it's because of opportunities like this that I've had the chance to discover these interesting phenomena."

　　Orion finished introducing himself as briefly as possible, then pressed the projection button on his laser pointer, releasing the first page of his PowerPoint, and quickly got to the point.

　　"About a month ago, I happened to be at the test site in the North Sector just as the collider was testing 1 TeV level collisions, and I observed several extremely unusual instances on the ATLAS detector."

　　Said Orion, flipping the PowerPoint to the next page and pointing to several coordinate points on the Events/mλλ image, "Right here, amazing isn't it? We've observed a couple of extremely specific signals at 750 GeV."

　　Peter Higgs didn't burst out laughing, but his expression was already one of obvious disbelief.

　　"This is the man you recommended for the report?"

　　Frank grinned, "That's right."

　　Peter teased, "And did you ever talk to him about quantum fluctuation theory? I usually talk about it with my students."

　　"I know what you're going to say about thinking the discovery is worthless," Frank laughed and continued, "Wanna bet $100? I'll bet he can convince you."

　　Peter shot him a couple of glances.

　　"I don't know what makes you so confident, but if you keep this up, sooner or later you're going to lose the prize money the Nobel Committee gave you."

　　Frank smiled in disbelief at his old friend's teasing.

　　"That's not necessarily true."
