In fact, I just sprained my right leg and hit my butt on a stone. I grinned in pain for a while, but it got better after a while.
His psychological stimulation was even more serious.
At the moment of the explosion, he thought of the internationally renowned physicist Prior Brown who had sacrificed his life for F-ray research.
Prior Brown has been dubbed the word "great" and may also be written into history textbooks and become an important figure recorded in history.
But no one wants to be Player Brown.
The hero, after all, has died.
Liu Qingzhi didn't want to either.
He encountered a similar situation to Prior. He conducted an experiment involving a strong annihilation field and a nuclear reactor. As a result, an explosion occurred directly inside the field.
Likewise, he, like Prior, is the 'nearest person'.
The moment the explosion occurred, Liu Qingzhi only had Prier's name in his mind, and then he fell down from fright.
"Bang~~"
The result was no follow-up.
After everyone in the laboratory calmed down, Liu Qingzhi felt a little embarrassed, because no one else was affected, and the staff calmly shut down the equipment.
Explosion, it's over.
He was the only one in the audience who fell to the ground.
Liu Qingzhi patted his chest hard and stood up from the ground with a grin on his face.
During the inspection, he felt that he had indeed overreacted. After all, the uranium content in the material was only 0.1%.
This content is really too low, too low.
Even if all the oil reacted, it would be equivalent to... 20 tons of TNT? He counted it again with his fingers. The total material in the experiment was one kilogram, and the uranium content was 0.1%, which is exactly one gram of uranium.
One gram of uranium undergoes fission...
Equivalent to 20 tons of TNT!
"It's still scary!"
"No, if there is another experiment, it must not be 0.1%, it must be 0.0001%, and then reduce it by 1,000 times, which is equivalent to 20 kilograms of TNT..."
"It's safer!"
"Otherwise you won't be so lucky next time!"
…
The data calculated by Liu Qingzhi are indeed terrifying.
But in fact, under a strong annihilation force field with three times the strength, it is impossible for uranium to completely fission, and it is even said that only a very small part undergoes fission.
When he came back from the infirmary, everyone was talking about the on-site survey data, "The explosion was approximately equivalent to thirty kilograms of TNT."
"If it were all fission reactions, about 0.15% of the uranium elements would undergo instant fission."
"The equipment was shut down after that. We don't know whether a large amount of uranium elements will still fission if the field force continues."
The nuclear physics expert continued, "The abundance of the material is extremely low, only 0.1%. Under the interference of a large number of impurities, forced fission due to neutron impact cannot occur under normal circumstances, so we can judge to a certain extent that the reaction is
Due to the influence of field forces.”
"Of course, the specific data still needs follow-up inspection..."
After hearing this, Wang Hao nodded and greeted Liu Qingzhi, who had just arrived, "Professor Liu, how are you doing?"
"It's just a sprained foot."
Liu Qingzhi said nonchalantly, "The medical office said it will be fine in two days."
"I still need to do a comprehensive checkup when I get back."
Wang Hao nodded and motioned Liu Qingzhi to sit down, and then said, "We were careless in this experiment. We did not expect that an explosion would occur quickly."
"I personally believe that the explosion is not just a nuclear fission reaction, but may also include some other phenomena."
Some other phenomena naturally refer to neutron annihilation.
"Of course, as Professor Zhu said just now, the specific data still needs to be tested later. The explosion is not serious and is limited to the inside of the device."
"But if the experiment is carried out again, the risk will be very high."
He said and shook his head.
The explosive yield of 20 kilograms of TNT is relatively terrifying. If the intensity were higher, it might blow up the outer protective layer and affect the equipment.
If the explosion yield exceeds 100 kilograms of TNT, there will definitely be casualties.
Although the explosion did not cause direct damage, many people still experienced tinnitus. After all, it was an experiment in a cave, so the impact was still huge.
Others were equally frightened.
After a summary and analysis, they knew how dangerous it was. Without being sure of the relationship between the annihilation force field strength and the fission ratio, they rashly conducted the experiment.
If the strength of the annihilation force field were higher, it might have been a very serious accident.
Wang Hao continued, "The experiment can be suspended, but we still need to conduct detailed testing, including the fission ratio of the uranium rod, including the explosion energy intensity, etc."
"This data must be collected."
He was referring to performing energy difference detection.
If the ratio between explosion energy and fission does not correspond, it means that there is excess energy, that is, the phenomenon of annihilation neutrons exists.
The latter has already been determined, but needs support from experimental data.
However, Wang Hao doesn't hold out much hope, because he can only calculate approximate data through testing, and the deviation in the middle must be large, and the results may not be able to be analyzed.
After the experiment, another two days of on-site survey, data collection and other work were carried out.
Wang Hao took the research team back.
While on the road, he said he wanted to apply for a new project, "We want to apply for a real particle annihilation experiment."
"Isn't it now?" He Yi asked puzzledly.
"Placing nuclear materials in a strong annihilation force field is still too dangerous, and detailed data cannot be detected." Wang Hao said, "We need to design new devices, for example, to separate the nuclear reactor from the strong annihilation force field, and then
Control the release of high-energy neutrons into the extremely strong annihilation force field."
"In this way, there are only high-energy neutrons in the field force, and the phenomenon of particle annihilation can be discovered."
He Yi thought about it and continued to ask, "Why don't we cooperate with the Institute of High Energy in this kind of research? They can directly create high-energy neutron beams."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Hao smiled and said, "Don't you think this is a very powerful energy technology?"
"ah?"
Others were a little confused when they heard it.
Paul Phil-Jones, Chen Mengmeng and others all looked over.
Wang Hao explained, "Just like the antimatter propaganda from Amrican, only a very small amount of antimatter can produce a large amount of energy."
"We did not create antimatter, but particle annihilation and antimatter cancellation have the same result, which is the release of a large amount of energy."
"This is many, many times higher than the energy released by nuclear fusion."
"Think about it..."
"This is pure matter converted into energy!"
He continued very seriously, "If we can complete the experiment, we can create a new energy manufacturing method based on nuclear reactors and weakened annihilation force fields. The efficiency will be many times that of nuclear fusion, and it will be relatively simpler to manufacture.
What comes out is still pure energy.”
"This may be more promising than nuclear fusion..."
He Yi was stunned.
Others were also stunned.
Paul Phil-Jones suddenly said, "If the phenomenon of annihilation particles can be discovered, it is theoretically feasible. However, nuclear fusion is already the reaction principle at the center of stars, so particle annihilation..."
"Black hole?"
Helen then said two words.
Everyone else was shocked and opened their mouths wide. Wang Hao was also very surprised. He did not expect Paul and Helen to think so deeply.
He still shook his head, "In this regard, we can only simply infer that we don't know what happens inside the black hole."
"But there is no doubt that this research is very promising."
Everyone started to look forward to it.
If the technology to control annihilation particles to create energy can be realized, it will indeed be much better than nuclear fusion control technology.
One is high efficiency.
Second, nuclear fusion technology has various problems.
For example, nuclear fusion reactions are difficult to control, and most of the design of the device is focused on control, while annihilation particle technology only needs to control the seeds that enter the field force.
For example, most of the energy generated by nuclear fusion is neutron energy, and the proportion of pure energy is relatively small. It only uses thermal energy to generate electricity, and it cannot even be self-sufficient. It must be supplemented by other complex power generation methods.
Today's nuclear fusion devices are very complete, but the cost of generating electricity is still not low, and at most it is only slightly better than wind power.
Nuclear fusion power generation is only an additional method of power generation for the time being.
If annihilation neutrons release energy to generate electricity, it can easily reach the limit of the equipment's endurance. However, annihilation seeds release pure energy, which is just a simple 'thermal power generation', and the utilization rate will be very high.
In addition, it is also very simple to control.
The most important part is two parts, one part is to release neutrons from a slight nuclear reaction, and the other part is to create an annihilation force field with a rate of more than three times. With the energy released by neutron annihilation, there is no need for a thermal energy device, and a large amount of pure energy can
Let the force field maintain its 'endurance limit'.
The latter is very easy.
The former has already had perfect technology.
Wang Hao continued with longing, "Moreover, the equipment produced by this technology can be miniaturized, the annihilation force field is small, and the demand for nuclear reactors is not high."
"The two together are not big. A range of ten or twenty meters is enough."
"This size can be placed on an aircraft carrier or even a future aircraft. Perhaps it can support the construction of an aerospace carrier?"
Wang Hao just said the last sentence jokingly, but the others' eyes flashed with enthusiasm.
They all discussed, "It can indeed be miniaturized. As long as the design is perfect, it can continuously produce a large amount of energy."
"The demand for nuclear reactors is not high. It can easily last for decades or even hundreds of years. It must be amazing to use it as a power source. The efficiency can reach the limit of equipment and materials..."
"With this technology, I think we can build larger super battleships that can hover in the sky forever, and can even support flights to other planets, such as Mars?"
"That should be called a spaceship?"
"It's too early to consider other planets now, but it's easy to realize that a super battleship is called a space carrier?"
"This is a good name. It can also become an aerial supply point for airships and flying saucers..."
The more they talked, the more excited they became, and the more they talked, the more excited they became.
Paul Phil-Jones immediately said loudly to Wang Hao, "Wang Hao, no matter what, I must participate in this research. When the space carrier is built, I will work on it, even as a maintenance worker!"
"I want to participate too, take me with you." Helen followed and said, "With such a space carrier, maybe we can achieve permanent peace in the world. This has always been my dream!"
"I'll join in too!"
"I'm coming too!"
"You must take me with you and never leave me behind."
Finally, Ding Zhiqiang raised his hand weakly and said, "Teacher Wang, I also want to participate..."
…
Wang Hao returned to Xihai University with great enthusiasm for his research. Before he could discuss the new research, he met Professor Zhou Yongxiang from the Institute of High Energy.
Zhou Yongxiang has been waiting for two weeks.
They knew that Wang Hao would not be back soon, and they had planned to go back, but Tian Guilin said in an orderly tone, "Don't come back until you see Wang Hao!"
They can only continue to wait.
While waiting, a few people spent a few days playing around the West Sea, thinking they were just here for a trip. After learning that Wang Hao was back, they immediately returned to the university.
In the office.
Zhou Yongxiang enthusiastically took Wang Hao's hand and said excitedly, "Academician Wang, you must cooperate with us in this research."
“Our team fully cooperates!”
"No matter what you ask for, even if it means dismantling the ion accelerator and rebuilding it, we will cooperate!"
Zhou Yongxiang's statement is that "all orders must be obeyed." As long as they work together to conduct experiments, they will completely obey orders.
This kind of enthusiasm made Wang Hao a little uncomfortable, but he still decided to cooperate with the Institute of High Energy. Finally, he worried others and talked about the problem of the tachyon project.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The result...
Everyone lost interest.
"Don't go!"
"I'm still waiting for the research on annihilation particles, tachyons... Anyway, we have discovered particle annihilation, so it doesn't matter..."
"How can this kind of research be as important as the space carrier?"
Wang Hao also planned to send a research team member to be responsible for contacting the Institute of High Energy. However, he found that no one was interested. He thought about leaving most of the work to the Institute of High Energy.
In fact, the experiment is not complicated.
The experiment is to establish a channel with a strong annihilation force field in the middle of the particle accelerator. Most of it requires construction and does not require any advanced theory.
The technology is available, just modify the equipment.
"Sending an annihilation field experimental team is complicated. Just go there to guide and supervise the creation of a strong annihilation field. Leave the confidentiality issue to the military..."
"After the examination is complete, just go and participate in the experiment."
Wang Hao started writing the application report.
In the process of writing the application report, he found that he was constantly being interrupted. Paul came over and asked, "When will we apply for the research on annihilation particles?"
Chen Mengmeng brought a cup of coffee, saying it was a high-quality product produced in Brazil, and asked by the way, "When will the annihilation particle experiment start?"
Helen didn't have so many ideas. She knocked on the door and walked in. She said directly, "Teacher Wang, start researching as soon as possible. If you can build a space carrier, you may be able to achieve permanent peace in the world."
"This has always been my dream."
She said with fanaticism in her eyes, "Teacher Wang, I know now that maybe you are the emperor of the universe who will lead mankind to eternal peace."
Wang Hao didn't even know how to react.
Permanent peace?
Emperor of the universe?
Such a second grade speech could only come from Helen's mouth.
Does Paul seem to be able to do the same?
He felt like he was not on the same page as them at all.
"Alright alright!"
Wang Hao felt that he had lost to Helen, so he simply said, "When I complete this application, I will write a project plan for the new experiment."
"No."
Suddenly several people appeared at the door.
Paul Phil-Jones came in with a document and put it on the table, "We have already written it. It includes the theoretical basis and experimental content. You can submit it for a look first."
Wang Hao opened the file a little helplessly and saw the title - Particle Annihilation Experiment Project Plan.
The subtitle on the side is...
"Research on aerospace carrier power technology?"
"Are you sure that's the name?" Wang Hao said with a look of confusion on his face.
Paul Phil-Jones said of course, "Of course, this is the technology that can support the production of space carrier power."
“What’s wrong with this subtitle?”
Wang Hao pursed his lips hard and found that he had nothing to say.
He could only take a deep breath, nodded and said, "Okay, let me take a look. If there are no problems, I will send it to the boss for a look..."
