Chapter 311 Controlled Nuclear Fusion Project Starts

In the office, Xu Chuan quickly mobilized the knowledge of the two lives in his mind, thinking about the feasibility of the method mentioned by Witten.

Time passed bit by bit, and as he thought, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

This seems to be a feasible path.

Because theoretically, the explosion of type Ia supernova is a supernova explosion formed by the white dwarf absorbing the matter of the main giant star.

In this process, the mass loss of the main giant star is actually locked, that is, it can indeed be calculated through mathematical methods.

And the so-called mass loss and interference of the common envelope are indeed not a problem for him.

He once used the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem to expand and apply the calculation to find that there is a companion star in the hydrogen envelope of Betelgeuse.

And under the premise that the parameters of the main star and the white dwarf have been confirmed, the calculation of type Ia supernova is indeed a feasible thing in theory.

This may be a way to confirm the evolution of inert neutrinos and the existence of dark matter in advance.

Originally, Xu Chuan thought that he would detect inert neutrinos and dark matter after the large particle collider in China was built.

But now it seems that it can be brought to the world in advance.

After thinking for a while, Xu Chuan raised his head with bright eyes and looked at his mentor Edward Witten.

It must be said that his mentor's knowledge is indeed as bottomless as an abyss.

In his previous life, he had never heard of such ideas and theories, but not long after he put the prediction paper of inert neutrinos on arxiv, Witten came up with this alternative method.

After thinking about it, Xu Chuan said: "In theory, this may be a feasible way. But why don't you calculate it yourself, mentor?"

Edward Witten is not just a physicist, his ability in mathematics is not inferior to physics.

After all, he is the first scholar in history to win the Fields Medal as a physicist.

Edward Witten smiled and said, "Compared to you, my mathematical ability is much worse."

"To be honest, I still don't fully understand the extended application of your Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem, not to mention that it needs to be deformed this time."

After a pause, he continued, "Want to cooperate? I will provide the physical data, and you will be responsible for the mathematical calculations."

Xu Chuan replied without hesitation, "No problem!"

On the side, Francois Engler looked at the two with envy. He also wanted to join, but unfortunately, he couldn't help much.

The theory was proposed by Witten, and the data calculation was done by Xu Chuan. As for finding type Ia supernovae, it was not a difficult task for Witten.

So even if he was a Nobel Prize winner, he couldn't find a suitable reason to join the team of the two.

Of course, if he proposed it, Witten and Xu Chuan would definitely agree to his joining.

But a gentleman does not eat food given out of pity. This kind of honor without contribution is unbearable for him.

Witten and Engler stayed at NDU for two days, mainly because Witten needed to communicate with Xu Chuan about their cooperation in exploring inert neutrinos and dark matter.

At least, Xu Chuan needed to sort out the basic data, boundary values, characteristic numbers and other data required for calculating this data, so that Witten could apply for the corresponding scientific research project from Princeton after returning.

Of course, Xu Chuan would also establish a scientific research project at NDU.

The cooperation between the two can be regarded as cooperation between universities.

After all, the observation of type Ia supernovae requires top astronomical observation equipment, numerous scientific researchers and other resources. It is difficult for the two of them to support this project alone.

After Witten and Engler left, Xu Chuan took his attention back from inert neutrinos.

Inert neutrinos have been confirmed, and he does not need to pay too much attention to the rest.

On the other hand, the site selection for the controlled nuclear fusion project has been determined. The Muyan Riverside Scenic Area is not very stable because the riverside area is a plain formed by river water accumulation, so the final site selection fell on the foot of Qixia Mountain near the Yangtze River.

Because the overall structure of this place belongs to Qixia Mountain, even in the area close to the Yangtze River, the foundation is quite stable.

For Jinling, abandoning a 4A-level tourist attraction in exchange for the landing of the super project of controlled nuclear fusion is definitely a sure win.

After the project site was selected, the Jinling Municipal Government immediately announced the closure of the scenic area and cleared the Qixia Mountain Scenic Area.

Then the area at the foot of the mountain was demolished and moved according to the city's demolition compensation standards. The action was done without any delay and the speed was extremely fast.

Fortunately, Qixia Mountain is a suburb of Jinling. Even if it is close to the river, there are not many residents and industrial plants. The speed of negotiation and demolition is quite fast.

Afterwards, the troops in the Jinling Ju District responsible for security set up a barrier at the foot of Qixia Mountain to prohibit other tourists and pedestrians from entering.

After all, controlled nuclear fusion is a super project, both in terms of level and meaning, it is higher than the previous "Nuclear Energy β Radiation Energy Concentration Conversion Electric Energy" project.

After the troops dealt with security issues, the China Nuclear Industry Construction Group, which was responsible for the construction of the controlled nuclear fusion project, immediately drove all the equipment, large and small, into Qixia Mountain.

The construction of the mobile plant, the transportation of slag trucks and cement trucks.

Various industrial equipment were put into construction at the foot of Qixia Mountain, which attracted the attention of some residents around Qixia Mountain who were outside the warning line and had not been demolished.

After all, there are a large number of various construction vehicles driving back and forth every day.

On the side of the road, a group of middle-aged ladies gathered to chat, enjoying the coolness under a tree, gossiping as they watched the construction vehicles coming and going on the riverside road.

"What do you think is happening on Qixia Mountain? A large number of garbage trucks come and go every day, even late at night. They are all so noisy that I can't sleep."

"Who says it's not the case? Although there were many cars in the past, there were no garbage trucks like this. Now they are all running on the road at night, making a rumbling noise." Another middle-aged aunt agreed.

"I have a relative who lives at the foot of Qixia Mountain. I heard that he was compensated 10 million for the demolition of his house, and he also bought two apartments. The demolition money was paid within a week. Why isn't the scope of the demolition expanded?"

While chatting, an aunt suddenly looked towards Qixia Mountain in the distance, and said with a mixture of sigh, complaint, envy and jealousy.

"That's right, such a big place has been demolished, why not demolish our area too!" Another aunt complained similarly while looking at the traffic on the road.

The Qixia Mountain area is a suburb in Jinling, and it can be said that there are very few opportunities for such demolition.

For these residents living near Qixia Mountain, the demolition of Qixia Mountain is like a pie falling from the sky, big and delicious.

Those who eat it are naturally full of joy, and those who don’t eat it feel a bit hungry.

But this does not mean that the area occupied by the controllable nuclear fusion project is small. For the Jinling Municipal Government, the base allocated for the controllable nuclear fusion project covers an area of ​​3,000 acres.

This is equivalent to the area of ​​a top 985 university.

Not only that, Jinling City has also left a thousand acres of reserved space for the expansion of the controllable nuclear fusion project, which means that the total land area and demolition area have reached more than four thousand acres.

You must know that the total area of ​​Qixia Mountain is only about 15,000 acres. It can be said that one-sixth of Qixia Mountain was divided for the controllable nuclear fusion project.

Fortunately, for such a huge area, it is located in the suburbs and it occupies a state-owned scenic spot. Otherwise, it would have to pay a large sum just for the demolition money.

By the time Xu Chuan finished dealing with the matter of sterile neutrinos, the controllable nuclear fusion project at the foot of Qixia Mountain had been under construction for several days.

After receiving the news, Gao Hongming, who is responsible for managing the controllable nuclear fusion project, and Qi Zhongxing, the chief engineer in charge of project construction, rushed to the gate of the camp and waited.

With Zheng Hai helping to deal with related matters, Xu Chuan did not encounter any obstruction when he took a car to the controllable nuclear fusion engineering base.

But through the car window, he could still see the extremely tight security.

Not to mention other things, what he saw while sitting in the car was at least three inspection and security points.

The red flag car drove slowly into the core camp of the base under the driving of Zheng Hai. After arriving at the target, Xu Chuan opened the door and walked out, and an eager voice came to his ears.

"Professor Xu, you are here."

"Professor Xu."

Gao Hongming and Qi Zhongxing, who had been waiting at the entrance of the camp for a long time, quickly rushed forward after seeing the red flag car and greeted them warmly.

"Gaoting, Qi Gong." Xu Chuan greeted the two of them with a smile. He looked around and landed on the workers who were working under the scorching sun.

The high-hanging sun was radiating scorching heat. Even in Qixia Mountain, the power of Qiuhuhu could not be underestimated. The hot and dazzling sunlight made him couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Not to mention the construction workers who were busy working on the construction, it can be said that they were soaked with sweat all over their bodies.

Looking at these respectable people, Xu Chuan sighed: "Thank you so much for working under such a strong sun."

Gao Hongming smiled and said: "We just did some basic work. Professor Xu, you are the one who really worked hard. We are facing all the world's problems and we have to work hard to build the motherland. We still need to rely on scholars like you. Knowledge is the The greatest wealth.”

Xu Chuan looked at the soldiers standing guard, then at the workers under construction, and sighed softly: "Some people live in temples, and some guard the borders. We share the same worries and walk together, all for the sake of peace."

Qi Zhongxing smiled and said: "Professor Xu is right, but let's go in first. I have prepared engineering drawings and other things. Why don't you take a look first?"

Because he was responsible for the construction of the "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy" project, he knew the young boss in front of him very well. Knowing that he doesn't like to waste time, there must be something to do every time he comes to the construction site. He simply got to the point.

Xu Chuan didn't sigh anymore, nodded and followed Qi Zhongxing into the camp.

In the temporarily built factory, Qi Zhongxing did not waste too much time chatting with Xu Chuan. After making two cups of tea, he dug out the engineering drawings stored in the cabinet.

The engineering drawings of a controllable nuclear fusion building are naturally quite large, but what he took out was not all of them, but a rough plan.

Laying out the planning drawing, Qi Zhongxing looked at Xu Chuan and said, "Professor Xu, this is the planning engineering drawing. If you look at anything that needs improvement, you can tell me directly."

This engineering drawing is borrowed from the domestic CFETR project.

The CFETR controllable nuclear fusion project located in Luzhou, Hui'an is China's first fusion project. The engineering design was officially launched in Luzhou, Hui'an on December 5, 2017.

From then on, China's nuclear fusion research has embarked on a new journey of independent research and development.

And this great project plan is divided into three stages.

In the first stage, by 2021, CFETR will start the project construction;

In the second stage, by 2035, it is planned to build a fusion engineering test reactor and start large-scale scientific experiments;

In the third stage, by 2050, the fusion engineering test reactor experiment will be successful, and a fusion commercial demonstration reactor will be built to complete the ultimate energy for mankind.

As for now, although it is only 2019, two years have passed, and the CFETR project has completed the basic construction of the park.

So Qi Zhongxing did not hesitate to borrow the engineering drawings of the CFETR project, and then modified and adjusted them according to the terrain of Qixia Mountain.

Although the CFETR project is the Tokamak device route, Qixia Mountain is the composite device route defined by Professor Xu himself, but except for some core areas and differences in controlled nuclear fusion reactors, other places are basically universal.

Of course, the most important thing is to look at the opinion of Professor Xu in front of him. He is the real person in charge, and he will change it as he says.

Xu Chuan looked at the planning engineering drawings and said, "Every profession has its own expertise. You are responsible for the construction of the project base."

"As for my requirements, I will mention them first. Please remember them and handle them according to the requirements."

Xu Chuan didn't pay much attention to the construction and layout of the project park.

In this regard, Peng Hongxi and the experts of the Nuclear Energy Industry Group helped to control it, so he didn't need to spend too much time on it.

Not to mention other things, but in terms of infrastructure construction design, China is full of talents.

After all, how could a country known as the "infrastructure maniac" not have its own skills.

When building a temporary hospital on a volcano in the future, it took only ten days to deliver a hospital that could accommodate a thousand patients.

The engineer responsible for the overall design completed the construction drawing design of such a huge hospital in just 24 hours.

When he was in charge of the "Nuclear Energy β Radiation Energy Concentration Conversion Electric Energy" project before, he didn't make too many suggestions on the layout of the park, but just put forward some of his own requirements.

And Qi Zhongxing also completed the construction perfectly according to the requirements.

This is also the reason why Xu Chuan recommended that Qi Zhongxing still carry out the construction of the controlled nuclear fusion project. The two of them cooperated well.
