Chapter 532 Antimatter, an Alternative Way of Division of Labor

Whether it is an enemy or an ally, if you can predict the opponent's actions, you will have a way to control the situation.

Hearing Yang Yuping's explanation, Fang Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking of something, his eyes were stunned for a moment.

Seeing Fang Yuan's frozen eyes for a moment, Yang Yuping had a cheerful smile on his face, and said, "What did you think of?"

"Think about it, this strategy is..." Fang Yuan was about to say what was in his mind.

Yang Yuping suddenly made a silent gesture and said, "Since you have thought of it, keep it in your heart and don't say it."

Fang Yuan immediately swallowed back the last words, and smiled at the old professor, breaking the tacit understanding of friendship.

"I thought the Dyson sphere was an interference item, but it turned out to be a double-layer interference."

"Isn't that how games are played? In fact, it's not scary to have strong opponents. As long as you can predict their actions, everything will be easy." Yang Yuping laughed.

"It's true." Fang Yuan also smiled.

Han Youwei sat next to her, saw two people, one old and one young, looking at each other and smiling, with a puzzled expression on her face, she moved to Fang Yuan's side, and asked in a low voice: "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, I just talked about some interesting things." Fang Yuan replied casually, without expressing it clearly.

at this time.

Liu on the podium has already started talking about nuclear bombs and controlled nuclear fusion.

The reason why Fang Yuan and Yang Yuping looked at each other and smiled just now is also a little bit related to this.

Humans are a species good at destruction.

Many cutting-edge technologies were originally invented for war.

Nuclear bombs appeared because of war, and even computers were originally invented for war.

Moreover, it is always easier to destroy than to build.

The first nuclear bomb was invented in the 1940s. After more than 80 years, humans still have not mastered the technology of controllable nuclear fusion.

Similarly, anti-matter technology must also be easier to manufacture anti-matter weapons than anti-matter engines.

The White Eagle Kingdom seems to have invested a lot of resources in antimatter technology,

Developed anti-matter weapons.

For human civilization, it is a progress, but if you want to upgrade from an anti-matter weapon to an anti-matter engine, the difficulty will increase by a hundred times.

If human beings want to travel between stars, they must have a power engine that can travel between stars.

An antimatter engine is one option, but it's not the only one.

The reason why Fang Yuan and Yang Yuping reached a tacit understanding is that Huaxia has already mastered an interstellar engine that can replace the antimatter engine, that is - lightning vortex ring!

That's right, the lightning vortex ring is an engine that can be used as an interstellar travel engine.

Now Huaxia already has the technical accumulation of the lightning vortex ring engine. Although this technology currently requires the support of the "lightning speed" ability, as long as the research continues, there is hope for the development of the lightning vortex ring engine.

Therefore, in terms of Starship Engine, Huaxia can do it in one step and directly take out the lightning vortex ring.

However, if the White Eagle Country wants to obtain the star flight engine, it needs to develop anti-matter weapons first, and then jump from anti-matter weapons to anti-matter engines.

The gap between them is as huge as nuclear bombs and controlled nuclear fusion.

The research on anti-matter technology alone will consume a lot of national strength of White Eagle Country.

Fang Yuan sometimes felt quite helpless.

Given the crisis that mankind is facing now, we should have worked together to deal with the star beast civilization and the descending civilization.

However, the situation forced it to carry out such a game, using scientific research to contain the energy of the White Eagle Nation.

From the perspective of internal factors, the whole plan reveals a sense of helplessness.

It was planned from the very beginning to let the White Eagle Kingdom study antimatter technology, and it was considered a good set for him to drill into it.

Moreover, this is an overt conspiracy, even if White Eagle's think tank sees through this plan, they have no choice but to drill into it.

Because it is impossible for the White Eagle Kingdom to give up the spear of antimatter, even if they know that it is a trap arranged for them, they will drill into it.

From the perspective of civilization, such an arrangement is very reasonable.

Each country chooses a future technology for research, which is also a kind of cooperation invisibly. After ignoring the tricks and calculations, the result is beneficial to human civilization.

"This group of idiots, if you want to divide the work and cooperate, you have to lure them in. Professor, you have worked hard." Fang Yuan sighed.

...

From this day on, Huaxia officially launched the Strong Interaction Materials Project.

As expected, the White Eagle Country started to launch an antimatter research project, and the goal was very clear, directly heading towards antimatter annihilation weapons.

Antimatter, to put it bluntly, is matter with the opposite charge in nature.

For example, electrons that exist in nature are all negatively charged.

Under special circumstances, positively charged electrons can appear, which are the antiparticles of electrons.

Likewise, protons in nature are positively charged.

Under special circumstances, negatively charged protons can appear, which is also a type of antimatter.

When the positive and negative particles collide, annihilation occurs, and all the mass is converted into energy, releasing huge energy.

When the hydrogen bomb explodes, the mass loss is actually only 0.7%.

The mass-energy conversion rate of antimatter is 100%, and the antimatter annihilation weapon annihilates both positive and negative matter at the same time, so the power of the antimatter annihilation weapon can be regarded as 285 times that of a hydrogen bomb.

It can be said that it is difficult for nuclear bombs to destroy the earth, but antimatter annihilation bombs can, it is so terrible.

After Fang Yuan re-understood the power of anti-matter weapons, he became a little worried about the White Eagle Nation's possession of anti-matter weapons.

Although there are awakened people in the age of star power, powerful technological weapons cannot represent everything, but antimatter weapons are still too threatening.

For this reason, Fang Yuan expressed this concern to Yang Yuping during a physical examination.

Yang Yuping only answered two words "magnetic field", and then did not explain further.

Just these two words are enough to solve Fang Yuan's confusion.

Because the biggest feature of antimatter is that as long as it contacts with positive matter, it will annihilate.

In nature, the world is full of positive matter, so antimatter is almost impossible to preserve.

So far, the only way to temporarily preserve antimatter is "magnetic fields".

And this saving time is as short as 0.17 seconds.

Therefore, antimatter weapons can only be stored using magnetic fields.

On Earth, the strongest magnetic field controller is in China.

That's right, Admiral Rhodes is the strongest magnetic field controller on Earth, he can create a magnetic field, and he can also destroy it.

Therefore, even if the White Eagle Nation creates an anti-matter annihilation weapon, it is not up to them whether or not the weapon will explode and when.

Not only that.

Fang Yuan can also use "Super Power Mimicry" to copy Admiral Rhodes' magnetic field control, then it will be a double magnetic field.
