Chapter 534: Breaking through the barriers

"Let's get started. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ€‚ infoโ€

With his own curiosity and zero assurance that there was no danger, Cheng Yuan agreed.

With Cheng Yuan's consent, Zero also moved on to the next step.

First of all, there is the capture of light particles.

The atoms of matter all have some discrete discontinuous states of energy called stationary states. A stationary state is when the energy of an atom has a definite value, and it does not change with time.

Generally speaking, this is the state of our analysis of atoms.

In the stationary state, the energy is the lowest and most stable, which we call the ground state. And above the ground state, we call it the excited state.

When we put an atom in a higher energy state by means of making the atom unstable, that is, in an excited state.

In this state, the atom returns to the ground state after a slight perturbation, a process called a transition, in which the atom absorbs or emits photons of a certain frequency and satisfies the corresponding conditions.

The excess energy generated by this process is converted into photons and released, which is known as the atomic luminescence mechanism.

The zero method is to use high energy to make the atoms unstable and collide, generate photons and then emit them through the accelerator, in this process, because they are always in a relative state, the photons will not disappear, but will continue to produce subsequent changes as the particle accelerator continuously injects energy.

And this follow-up change is exactly what Cheng Yuan and Zero are preparing to observe and record.

Zero's action was very fast, and when the particle accelerator was activated, through the holographic window, Cheng Yuan, Zhang Li, and Chen Yu only saw that there was no change at all in the emptiness outside.

Through the changes in the data next to the holographic window, it can be clearly understood that the light particles have been emitted at this time, and the particle accelerator is constantly increasing its speed.

Accelerating light particles requires a hundred times more energy than other particle sources!

If it weren't for nuclear fusion, which is a source of energy, it would not have been possible to support such experiments. This is one of the reasons why I have never heard anyone experiment with light particles so far.

Time passed slowly for five minutes in silence between the three of them.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a very subtle golden light flashed from the screen, and Cheng Yuan instantly saw the flash of golden light.

And when Cheng Yuan captured this glimmer of golden light, Zhang Zhang and Chen Yu also discovered that after all, the three of them were not ordinary people, and the three of them who had been strengthened were many times stronger than ordinary people no matter what convenience they had.

Eyes are also one of them.

"Zero, has that picture been captured?" Cheng Yuan asked with some excitement, this is the first time that mankind has ever conducted experiments on light particles, and the importance of its data is self-evident.

"Yes. Zero replied briefly.

Hearing Zero's answer, Cheng Yuan immediately ordered: "Intercept it, I want to take a look." โ€

As the words fell, a slightly blurry screenshot appeared in front of him, the picture was very blurry, because the lens was not very clear due to the interference of the internal magnetic field.

But even so, Cheng Yuan was still able to roughly see the specific image of this golden light through his own technology.

It was a very small, oval-shaped material, like a shuttle, surrounded by particulate matter like a powdery mist.

Cheng Yuan knows that these mist-like particles are actually an effect of the continuous vibration and volatilization of light particles in high-speed motion.

Although the light particles are accelerated, they themselves are constantly volatilizing and dissipating, but in the process of acceleration, they are constantly generated, so this situation occurs.

Cheng Yuan was sure that if he stopped directly at this time, then this light particle would dissipate instantly!

"It's really beautiful, isn't it?" Cheng Yuan looked at the golden particle in front of him in fascination, and said to Chen Yu and Zhang Li behind him.

However, his words were obviously in vain, and the two of them couldn't understand it at all, what was there to see about this blurry mosaic-like picture.

So for Cheng Yuan's admiration, they can only express it with silence.

Seeing that the two behind him did not react, Cheng Yuan also understood that he was playing the piano to the cow, he pouted, ignored the two, and continued to watch.

After the golden light appeared just now, Cheng Yuan didn't see it again in the next few minutes, as if everything just now was an illusion.

Just as Cheng Yuan gradually frowned, the golden light appeared again.

At the same time as the golden light appeared, Zero's voice also sounded at the same time: "Sir, the speed of light particles has reached 170 million meters per second, and it continues to accelerate. โ€

"Two hundred million per second, which is close to the speed of sublight!"

"210 million ......"

"240 million ......"

"Two hundred and seventy million!"

"280 million meters per second!"

"Sir, the light particle is infinitely close to the speed of light, but if it continues to increase its final result, it may collapse. Zero's voice sounded over and over again, reminding Cheng Yuan at the same time.

And at this time, in the holographic screen, it is no longer empty, but the golden light that fills the screen is flowing in it at a very fast speed.

Like golden lightning, it occupies the entire acceleration space!

If it weren't for the fact that there was no sound in the vacuum environment, Cheng Yuan felt that he could hear the deafening vibration sound at this time.

However, hearing Zero's words, Cheng Yuan's eyebrows furrowed, and he wondered: "Why, it's a particle of light, how can it not withstand the speed of light?"

"Sir, light particles and photons are two different concepts, photons have no mass, which allows them to travel freely through the universe, and they don't need to accelerate at all. The energy of light travels in the form of waves, which means that from the moment the photon is born, it has reached its maximum speed. โ€

Cheng Yuan's eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and he couldn't puzzle: "What's the matter with the light particles?"

"Light particles have mass, they just approach photons wirelessly in form, and you know that the faster an object moves, the heavier it becomes, and the heavier an object becomes, the harder it is to accelerate, because it's almost impossible to get a light particle to speed up to the speed of light. Zero explained.

Cheng Yuan didn't believe Zero's explanation, he pouted, "Whose theory is this, Roger Lasol's? Please, Zero." Can our accelerator be faster?"

Zero was silent for a moment and replied, "Yes, but ......"

"Light particles may not be able to withstand it, right?" Cheng Yuan didn't wait for Zero to finish speaking before taking over, "This conclusion is the result of your calculations?"

"Yes, sir. After reaching a speed of 270 million kilometers per second, the volatilization of light particles is already higher than the generation of light particles, and I estimate that if the speed continues to increase, it will evaporate faster. โ€

"How long does it take to reach the speed of light!, is our accelerator powered enough?" Cheng Yuan narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

Zero quickly replied: "Based on current data, it will take two minutes to reach the speed of light at 300,000 kilometers per second, and this time will vary between the mass of the light particles and the energy supply of our own accelerators." โ€œ

The meaning of zero is clear, the further back you go, the more difficult it becomes, and the time will continue to increase.

After Cheng Yuan understood, he continued to insist on his decision: "As long as it can be supplied, go on!"

He actually wanted to see if this light particle could reach the speed of light, or even surpass it, with full power energy supply!

Even if it was only a moment beyond the speed of light, Cheng Yuan wanted to see what the result would be.

At Cheng Yuan's insistence, Zero could only continue to increase the energy supply, and in the acceleration space, the speed of the light particles became faster and faster, and the lightning-like golden light particles became more dense at this time.

"298 million meters per second ......"

"299 million meters per second ......"

Getting closer and closer to the speed of light, Cheng Yuan found that the picture on the holographic screen began to vibrate, and there was a tendency to become more and more violent.

"Keep increasing!" Cheng Yuan's eyes widened, staring at the screen without blinking, for fear that he would miss the most critical moment in the blink of an eye!

Although there was a golden light in front of him, he didn't want to miss any detail in his heart. Even if his eyes widened at this point, he would not see any slight changes.

Because that kind of subtle change is not visible to the naked eye at all. What he's doing now is just a psychological comfort.

Cheng Yuan's nervous appearance also made Zhang Zhang and Chen Yu's expressions become solemn, although they still didn't know what Cheng Yuan was nervous about......

"300 million meters per second!" Just as Cheng Yuan stared intently at the screen, a bright blue light suddenly appeared in the golden lightning on the screen.

The golden lightning turned blue in the blink of an eye!

And at this moment, Zero's voice sounded again, with a hint of shock in it: "Sir, it is beyond the speed of light!"

Before Cheng Yuan could speak, Zero immediately said, "Sir, it's starting to crumble! 316 million per second!"

"No, it's already 430 million meters per second!"

In the midst of Zero's frightened voice again and again, a black dot as fine as a sesame seed suddenly formed on the link of blue lightning in the acceleration space.

The black dot is surrounded by cracks that resemble cracked glass.

This phenomenon is not only because this new phenomenon Zero does not have perfect observation equipment, but more importantly, Zero has been completely attracted by the situation at this time.

Because when the light particles reached the speed of light, it found that the light particles had broken away from the energy supply of the accelerator and operated on their own, and the speed was getting faster and faster!

"Sir, the light particles are out of control!" said Zero anxiously and quickly.

At this time, he didn't have the time to pay attention to Zero's words, and at this time, he could clearly see through the screen that a rapidly expanding black cavity.

The inside of the cavity is like a vortex, and there are tiny cracks like hairs extending outside, and inside the cavity, there seems to be an unknown substance rotating, this substance looks very familiar from afar.

But he didn't think about it for a while, he just felt very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere!

And just when Cheng Yuan frowned, this cavity expanded at an extremely fast speed, and the diameter reached three meters almost in the blink of an eye!

And it's still expanding!

And just when this cavity reached ten meters, a vague shadow suddenly appeared from the dark cavity, and the shadow appeared!

When Cheng Yuan saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank!(To be continued.) )
