After Lu Zhou got back from Brazil, he began his research on the plasma turbulence phenomenon.
Although he didn't go on another retreat, his lifestyle was very regular. He would either be in his bedroom, Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, or the PPPL.
Researching the plasma turbulence phenomenon wasn't much easier than solving the Navier–Stokes equation.
They were at a different kind of difficulty.
The latter was equivalent to using abstract mathematical tools to prove whether a smooth solution existed. The latter was equivalent to finding a special case and solution of the Navier–Stokes equation.
Until now, there had only been a hundred special Navier–Stokes equation solutions discovered in the mathematics world; most of them did not include the time dimension or were limited to two spatial dimensions.
