The Rise of Australia

Chapter 742 Cyclotron and Australia-Canada Joint University

The biggest problem facing the German government is not the depreciation of the mark, but the continuous depreciation of the mark.

Such depreciation cannot be stopped at all, and bread has become a trading "currency" with a much more stable value than the mark.

After all, bread is one of the indispensable things in people's daily life, but the mark is no longer.

With a stack of marks in your pocket, you may only get a small piece of bread. It is better to just put a piece of bread in your pocket and take a bite when you are hungry.

The economic chaos has determined the chaos in German politics.

President Hindenburg is no longer popular, and William II rarely shows up. The most popular person is a person who rose from a soldier-Hitler.

Of course, the current situation in Germany is still very different from that in history.

Strictly speaking, Germany is not a republic.

The current name of Germany is still the German Empire, the emperor is still William II, and the states still have grand dukes and kings.

These are also a major force affecting the situation in Germany. After all, the monarchs of the states certainly do not want their power to be taken away by those political parties.

It is precisely these reasons that have led to the unstoppable and continuous economic chaos in Germany.

At present, the number of unemployed people in Germany is one of the highest in Europe, second only to Russia.

But Russia has sufficient land and population after all. In addition to the homeland, other colonies of Germany have long been divided by Britain and France.

The chaos in Germany has attracted the attention of the world, and Arthur has also expressed his concern.

If Arthur was not sure whether World War II would be caused by Germany before, then Arthur is now certain that Germany is definitely one of the initiators of World War II.

The Germans' dissatisfaction with the status quo alone has determined that no matter who holds power in Germany, they must start a war to change the status quo in Germany.

Even if there is no Hitler, there will be other Hitlers. This is the inevitable result of the cruel oppression of Germany after the war.

Arthur has no choice but to try his best to develop Australasia and ensure Australasia's strength in future wars, and first ensure the safety of his own country.

As for Britain and France, they also made a fortune in the division of the United States, and it is also their responsibility to serve as a bridgehead against Germany.

As for whether France in this era will surrender in just one month as in history, Arthur can only say that he will leave it to fate.

Fortunately, the current Australasia can replace the role of the United States in World War II.

With the support of Australasia, it will not be so difficult for Britain to resist Germany.

But there is also a problem, that is, Australasia may have to compete with the island countries in the Pacific.

The ambition of the island people is destined to make this country unpeaceful. Without the United States, the island countries will inevitably fight with Australasia in the Pacific to compete for the hegemony of the Pacific.

All Arthur can do is to try to ensure that the Pearl Harbor incident in history will not break out in Australasia.

For Arthur, the threat of the island countries is greater than that of Germany. Even if he risks Germany's full occupation of Europe, Arthur will try his best to eliminate the enemy of the island countries.

Because compared with other countries, the island countries have no humanity, and fighting with such countries makes Arthur feel sick.

Thinking of this, Arthur feels more and more that developing the country is the most important thing at present.

Only when Australasia itself becomes strong, Arthur will have the confidence to fight against opponents like Germany and the island country.

Although he despises the inhumane country like the island country, he has to admit that the threat of this country is very great, and fighting against it will cost certain casualties.

Only when Australasia itself has strong enough strength, Arthur will have the confidence to destroy this country once and for all.

Whether it is missiles or nuclear weapons, they are gifts prepared by Arthur for the island country, and they are also the key to Arthur's confidence in destroying the island country.

Putting his eyes back on the development of the country, Arthur is very concerned about the construction of another university.

This university invited a large number of experts and scholars from California. In theory, it is actually a new branch of the University of California.

Of course, the name of the University of California is California State University, and it is obviously not appropriate to use such a name for a new school.

Therefore, after Arthur's approval, the name of the new school was changed to the Australian-Canadian Joint University, which means a university jointly built by Australasia and the United Kingdom of California.

The University of California is the most famous university in California and one of the famous universities in the United States.

Arthur originally thought that the University of California had been excited enough to let him get Oppenheimer, but he didn't expect that the talent pool of the University of California was beyond his expectations.

Under the premise that the government of the Kingdom of California highly cooperated with Australasia, Australasia easily recruited a large number of experts and professors and invited them to work in Australasia.

A large part of these experts will teach at the new Australia-Canada Joint University, and their salary and treatment will be slightly higher than the previous level in California. This is also Arthur's reward and compensation for their coming from afar.

In addition, these experts and professors will get a house for free to accommodate their families.

Various household appliances, cars, etc. will also be given to them free of charge as rewards and compensation.

This also expresses Arthur's attitude, that is, the importance of talents. These things are also used to attract these experts so that they can concentrate on working in Australasia.

Among these experts, one name attracted Arthur's attention, that is, the very famous physicist Ernest Lawrence.

Of course, Ernest Lawrence's reputation is not prominent now. This is not to say that Ernest's ability is not good, but Ernest, who was born in 1901 and was only 28 years old, obviously has not yet entered the core circle of the world's scientific research community.

But this guy, who is only 28 years old, has already achieved quite good results, and his ability is completely worthy of recognition.

Ernest's grandfather was a teacher from Norway, and his mother was also a Norwegian immigrant. The degree of recognition of the United States is not as high as imagined.

In Ernest, he liked to tinker with electrical appliances, crystal radios, and homemade telegraphs since he was a child, which also showed his talent for physics.

Since middle school, Ernest Lawrence has become a radio fan, very keen on wireless communications and circuit experiments.

Because his grades in math, chemistry and English were not ideal (Norwegian immigrant), Ernest eventually switched to physics and soon achieved excellent results.

After completing his undergraduate studies at St. Olaf College, Best went to the University of Minnesota, the University of Chicago and Yale University, and cultivated his knowledge and ability in physics to an excellent level.

Because of his hard work and outstanding achievements, Ernest has become well-known in the American physics community.

After he finished his studies, many prestigious universities invited him with very favorable conditions.

But in the end, Ernest Lawrence chose the University of California, Berkeley on the West Coast and set up his own physics laboratory.

But as luck would have it, just one year after arriving at the University of California, Berkeley, the United States encountered a war and was even directly disintegrated into several countries.

Although Ernest Lawrence did not have such a high degree of recognition of the United States, the division of the United States still affected his research.

After all, American universities are also supported by the US government and finance. After the fall of the US government, the talents of these famous universities were almost all lured away by other countries, and there were actually not many left in the United States.

Without financial support from the United States, Orest Lawrence's research funds have dropped significantly, and the finances of the Kingdom of California obviously cannot support so many excellent universities.

At this time, Australasia recruited talents across the United States and offered better conditions than the original United States.

Such conditions naturally attracted a large number of talents, including Ernest Lawrence, who was originally an immigrant.

So the question is, why is Arthur so interested in Ernest Lawrence?

This guy who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in history invented the cyclotron, which played a very important role in high-energy physics.

Then the question is, what does the cyclotron do?

Simply put, the cyclotron is a device that produces positron radioactive drugs. After this drug is injected into the human body as a tracer, the doctor uses PET/CT imaging to observe the physiological and pathological functions and metabolism of the patient's brain, heart, other organs and tumor tissues throughout the body.

By using different imaging drugs produced by cyclotrons to specifically image various tumors, early monitoring and prevention of diseases can be achieved.

In other words, cyclotrons play a huge role in high-energy physics and medical fields, and are considered strategic technologies in the medical field.

Although other technologies have not yet reached the point where tumors can be observed, cyclotrons do not mean that they have no other role.

In any case, cyclotrons are definitely a strategic technology that is worth investing a lot of money in research and development and maintaining a leading position. This is also the main reason why Arthur attaches importance to Ernest Lawrence.

After all, Arthur is also a human being, and he still attaches great importance to the health of himself and his family.

When the technology matures in the future, such technology can be used to give all royal family members regular physical examinations, and early detection and early treatment of diseases can be achieved.

This is also what Arthur is most willing to see besides the strength of the country. After all, the world is developing rapidly, and if possible, Arthur also wants to accompany Australasia to go further.
