How to find a supervisor?

A

hello people,
Recently, I have come up with a new method in a field related to timekeeping and navigation and blah ... I am sure my method works because I have corresponded to the top scientist of the field and he has approved the method.
I intend to write down on a abstract and submit it to a conference but I guess the referees at the meeting could not be sure of the accuracy of the paper unless it has a supervisor. The problem is that there is not even a single human-being in my own country ever heard of timekeeping and stuff, let alone the faculty of my university! . However, I know great scientists whom I could ask to supervise my paper. Don't you think that kind of request is a little bit disrespectful? and if the answer is yes, would you please tell me how I can find one? sorry it got too long.

What exactly are you asking?

Are you looking to do a PhD and looking for a supervisor?

Or are you looking for someone to proofread your abstract / paper for conference?

I've not done anything in your area, but if you are already at a Uni. studying for a qualification then you should be talking to your own supervisor or tutor as a first point of contact.
