Chapter 537 J-40? Are You Sure It's Not a Joke?
Zhao Yi figured it out.
After discovering that the nuclear structure of uranium-235 was unstable during the reaction, he subconsciously believed that the nuclear structure of uranium-235 would be unstable in a space-blocked environment.
In fact, instability is only limited to the 'reaction process', not before the reaction occurs. The most powerful proof is that before the nuclear device is started, the uranium rod used as the material does not accelerate spontaneous fission.
What Edward Witten said makes sense. The effects of force are mutual. Space will squeeze the mass point. The mass point does not disappear because of this. There must be resistance or disguise.
Regardless of whether it is the former or the latter, if the mass point can exist in space, it means that it has completed "plastic deformation". If it is not destroyed by external forces, the space squeeze will suddenly reduce or disappear, and it will not change as a result.
Therefore, the direct effect of space barrier is only limited to the process of fission of the atomic nucleus and the limitation of the outer area of the atomic nucleus, while the atomic nucleus itself is still stable.
If analyzed from a microscopic perspective, basic particles are composed of protons and neutrons, which are then composed of atomic nuclei. The mass points that make up the particles act as a barrier to space extrusion. The same is true for neutrons and protons combined together. The atomic nucleus The steady state mainly relies on the limitations of internal forces and will not be affected by the squeeze of external space. However, once the nucleus changes and neutrons, protons or other particles are separated, it will be affected by space obstruction.
The weakening of spatial barriers leads to a more complete fission reaction.
Zhao Yi continued to conduct in-depth research and used mathematics to construct the reaction system, and found that the reduction of the space squeezing effect in the region would also lead to the activity of neutrons being thrown out of the nucleus. The activity is reflected in the speed and force, because When the space squeezing effect is reduced, neutrons cannot maintain microscopic 'inertia', resulting in a decrease in activity.
This is like a person who is not affected by gravity in the universe and cannot control his own direction, and his ability to move will be reduced.
Of course, neutrons have no consciousness, just because in a space-blocked environment, the inherent physical laws are overturned, the "boost" space squeezing force is reduced, and the microscopic "particle inertia" cannot be maintained for a long time.
This also explains that in a space barrier environment, the nuclear fission reaction becomes more complete, but the reaction speed does not increase accordingly.
"but……"
"If the squeezing effect of space on the mass point in the area weakens, it will also cause a large area of thrown particles to become inactive, then the nuclear fusion reaction..."
"Is it more difficult?"
The principles of nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are exactly the opposite. They rely on the collision and combination of particles. In a space-blocked environment, the activity of particles decreases, which will definitely greatly increase the difficulty of nuclear fusion.
"but……"
"Perhaps it is effective? If the particles become inactive, nuclear fusion will be easier to control?"
Zhao Yi pursed his lips hard and thought carefully.
In the process of doing space-related theoretical research, he also hopes that theory can provide support for technology, and it is best to directly transform it into technology.
What he most hopes to see is that experimental research provides theoretical support for controllable nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion, also known as nuclear fusion, fusion reaction, fusion reaction or thermonuclear reaction, the reaction principle is exactly the opposite of nuclear fission. It means that two atomic nuclei are attracted to each other and collide together, resulting in the polymerization of the atomic nuclei to generate a new heavier mass. Although neutrons have a relatively large mass in the nucleus of an atom, because they are uncharged, they can escape from the confines of the nucleus and be released during this collision. The release of a large number of electrons and neutrons represents a huge release of energy.
This is the opposite form of nuclear reaction to nuclear fission. , but compared to nuclear fission, nuclear fusion has too many benefits.
For example, no pollution.
For example, the energy released is more and stronger.
For example, fuel can come from seawater and some light nuclei, so nuclear fusion fuel is endless.
Every nuclear power is working hard to study controllable nuclear fusion, and all relevant scientists believe that controllable nuclear fusion represents the future.
Zhao Yi also hopes to find out the direction of studying controllable nuclear fusion from experiments in space isolation, that is, anti-gravity environments.
The results now appear to be beneficial, but also have side effects on the occurrence of nuclear fusion.
"In an environment of spatial isolation, it is difficult for nuclear fusion to occur? The greater the isolation, the more difficult it is for the reaction to occur..."
"Whether it is nuclear fission or nuclear fusion, the particles become inactive, which means the reaction process is easy to control."
"Control is much harder than creating a reaction!"
Zhao Yi briefly summarized that the experimental results are definitely beneficial. Whether it is nuclear fission or nuclear fusion, the most technically difficult aspect is the control of the reaction process.
Nuclear reactions will become easier to control, which will definitely lead to great improvements in technology. However, the ignition of nuclear fusion will definitely be greatly affected, and great technical difficulties will have to be overcome.
The current conclusion still disappoints Zhao Yi. It is like the discovery of space barrier, or anti-gravity. He originally hoped for a theoretical breakthrough, but he did not expect that he only found that the particles are inactive. It can only be said that it has increased the theoretical impact on technology. support.
"What a pity!"
"Relying on nuclear testing to increase understanding of space is a truly major breakthrough, but the result is nothing."
"My understanding of space has not increased at all!"
Zhao Yi took a deep breath, made a brief summary, wrote an experiment report and submitted it, and then left the room depressed.
In the office building of the School of Science, Zhao Yi met Edward Witten again.
Edward Witten is ready to leave.
He came to Yanhua University to finish his work and did not plan to do any research, so he could not stay long.
"Zhao Yi, it's great to see you before I leave." Edward Witten was still very enthusiastic, and then asked in a low voice, "You must be doing confidential research, right? Is it technical? Although I know, this cannot be said.”
Edward Witten found that Zhao Yi was very busy and had been doing research in his room. He didn't know what kind of research it was, so he could guess that it was confidential research.
He knew not to ask more questions, but he was still curious.
Zhao Yidao said, "It's theoretical, but unfortunately there's nothing to gain." He shook his head in disappointment.
Edward Witten smiled and said, "It's nothing." He patted his chest and smiled, "When you are disappointed, look at me. I have gained almost nothing in the past year. Of course, I have gained something. I got two million I spent all the US dollars in scientific research funding.”
"Now I have figured it out. It's time to enjoy life, but they still trust me. Recently I joined a fitness club. I have to pay attention to exercise while doing scientific research. But I chose to join mainly because the coach is a blonde. The same figure as a model..."
"Ahem."
"Anyway, you must pay attention to your health..."
Zhao Yi stared at Edward Witten and nodded seriously. He found that Edward had changed a lot. Maybe it was because he was hit by the failure of long-term research?
Why do you suddenly like blondes with hot bodies?
However, it seems normal!
By the way...
Why didn't he bring that female student Camilla with him when he came here?
…
the other side.
Zhao Yi's experimental report was immediately handed over to the senior leaders, who asked Academician Chen Zeshu to help them interpret the contents of the report.
The experimental report was different from what was expected because the Nuclear Research Institute team had already made a report on the experimental findings. What Zhao Yi discussed was to deduce some new theories or phenomena based on the experimental results and the original theoretical basis.
result……
The report contains a large number of mathematical formulas and corresponding simple analyses.
Chen Zeshu studied carefully for several hours and found that he was really lonely in his research. He could not understand anything and did not say anything. Even the final conclusion of the experimental report felt a bit confusing.
"Under the barrier of space, the particles in the reaction process become inactive?"
"What does inactivity mean? Why is it inactive? What is its use?"
"These mathematical equations..."
Chen Zeshu felt like his head was spinning.
The senior leaders found that Chen Zeshu couldn't understand it at all, so they simply asked him to contact Zhao Yi directly, and Chen Zeshu came to Yanhua University.
He found Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi was not stingy in explaining it, but the complex mathematical logic was obviously not something that an old academician who had been engaged in nuclear physics technology research for a long time could understand. Chen Zeshu felt that his head was getting bigger.
He pressed his forehead hard and interrupted, "Academician Zhao! Can you stop talking about these mathematical problems and skip! Skip! I already know that during the reaction, the particles become inactive, and then what?"
"Then what? What will happen if the particles are inactive?"
"What's the use?"
Zhao Yi listened carefully and nodded, then asked strangely, "It should be written in my report, right?"
"Is it written? Where is it? Impossible!" Chen Zeshu felt that he had almost turned over the report several times, and he was very sure that he didn't see any 'use'.
Zhao Yi found out that Chen Zeshu didn't believe it, so he simply found the electronic version of the report. He turned to the fourth page and found the end. He saw a small summary line under a lot of complicated formulas——
The curve of the U-shaped structure shows that the particles are easier to control under the K profile state.
Chen Zeshu stared at this sentence, read it several times in succession, and asked with his mouth half open, "Did I see this? What is it talking about?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
Zhao Yiman said with confusion, "Academician Chen, is it obvious? That is to say, the particles in the reaction are easier to control, and the nuclear experiment is easier to control."
"The K profile state includes the nuclear reaction states of nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In other words, in a space-isolated environment, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission will be easier to control."
This time Chen Zeshu understood.
Before he could be surprised, he noticed the look in Zhao Yi's eyes that said, "I don't understand at all, even if it's so simple." He was so angry that he almost spat out blood. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Why is it that such an important thing can't be understood at all?" Don’t explain clearly!”
"important?"
Zhao Yi thought about it carefully, "Technically, it should be of some use. My report said that space obstruction will make it more difficult to ignite nuclear fusion, and to a certain extent, it will also affect nuclear fission."
"It's just that it doesn't help my research at all."
He shook his head in disappointment.
…
Chen Zeshu left with excitement and depression.
He is excited that the discovery that nuclear reactions are easier to control in an antigravity environment may promote research on controllable nuclear fusion.
In addition, nuclear fission has become easier to control, which means that high-abundance, high-power nuclear power devices in an anti-gravity environment can be developed.
This is definitely a great technological discovery and may lead to a major breakthrough.
At the same time, he was also depressed.
Chen Zeshu found that he and Zhao Yi were not on the same channel at all. What he thought was a big discovery became not worth mentioning in the other party's mouth.
"Probably, Academician Zhao hopes to make a breakthrough in theory, right? Not in technology..."
"Maybe a discovery of this level is nothing to Academician Zhao?"
"This should be!"
"We are both academicians, why is the gap so big? I can't even understand the report he wrote."
The last point is also the reason why Chen Zeshu is depressed. He has always felt that his mathematics level has reached the top level in the world.
Now it seems that the difference is too far!
Zhao Yi's experimental report is still very influential. Just like Chen Zeshu's understanding, nuclear reactions are easier to control and will definitely be a major breakthrough in technological theory. From this perspective, nuclear tests can be conducted to study corresponding technologies.
In the future, we can expect to create controllable high-power, high-abundance nuclear reactors that can provide power support for large-scale equipment.
Demonstration of technology and R&D directions will still require some time for discussion.
at the same time.
A piece of news was released at the large-scale air show held in Zhucheng, China, which was like a whirlwind, triggering domestic and international discussions.
J-40 will be unveiled at the Zhucheng Air Show soon!
There was a lot of big news before the Zhucheng Air Show was held. More than a month ago, the most widely circulated news was that the J-20 would be unveiled and equipped with the most advanced engines in the world.
"The most mysterious and advanced" was reported by domestic media and scorned by foreign media. Domestic aviation engines have no market at all internationally.
No, it should be said that there is no technology!
The most advanced fighter jets assembled in China have engines imported from country E. The independently developed Kunlun engine has been exposed to a lot of problems.
'Most advanced'?
Kunlun?
Even if the Kunlun engine is perfected, judging from the disclosed parameters, it will be at least one and a half or even two generations behind the most advanced engines in the world.
This gap obviously cannot be bridged by ‘upgrading’.
Where does ‘the most advanced’ come from?
Another news is that the domestically produced J-20 fighter jet will be unveiled. The J-20 is a model that is valued internationally. Foreign media also believe that the J-20 may become close to the fifth-generation aircraft. Many foreign reporters came to participate in the air show. They all hope to take pictures of the J-20.
However, none of them expected that they had just arrived in Zhucheng and the air show had not yet been held, and they would receive new news, which was officially released.
J-40?
Are you sure this model is not a joke?
