Capital

Key Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and Technology.

Academician Zhou is sorting out the data of Gyre-1 and the International Thermonuclear Fusion Experimental Reactor, and invites Xu Mang to join this project, so that Academician Zhou has more and more confidence in this project, although he has never seen Xu Mang publish any research results in nuclear physics, but nuclear physics should not be a problem.

Not right,

This guy is indirectly exposed to nuclear physics, and he developed the epoxy-based axial insulator, which is a material, and without this material, it would be impossible for the 'artificial sun' to appear in front of everyone.

Then

Liang Feng, the deputy designer of the Circulation No. 2 project, came to Academician Zhou's office and discussed the simulation session.

"Old Zhou?"

"What about the simulation?"

"Are there any good candidates?" Liang Feng asked curiously, "Or... Set up a separate department, find talents in nuclear physics and computer science, and study the problem of this simulation link together, what do you think, Lao Zhou?"

Hearing Liang Feng's words, Academician Zhou showed a hint of a smile and said calmly: "No need... I've found one of the most authoritative experts in the field, and he'll do the work. ”

"Huh?"

"You... You just said it was one?" Liang Feng asked with a confused expression: "A... Isn't it too little?"

"Enough!"

"If I name it, you'll think it's more than enough. Academician Zhou smiled: "He is an authority on cutting-edge research in the field of physics, and he is also an authority in the field of computers.

An authority on cutting-edge research in the field of physics?

An authority in the field of computing?

An expert in the two-way field?

"Xu..."

"Professor Xu Mang?" Liang Feng asked with a slight puzzlement, "I want to come and go, and he is the only one, but... He seems to be involved in more than these two fields, materials, electromagnetics, optics, etc., his scope is too wide, but... I'm a little confused. ”

"Confused?"

"Tell me what you have to say. Academician Zhou said.

Liang Feng said with a confused face: "First of all, I want to admit Professor Xu Mang's outstanding contributions to physics, but he doesn't seem to have published any research reports on nuclear physics. We need to take a good look at it. ”

"Actually..."

"Xu Mang has been involved in this field for a long time, but it is indirect. Academician Zhou explained: "Hello remember that we stopped for a whole month for a bottom part, and then found the relevant experts of NTU to solve it. ”

"Yes!"

"It's like... In the end, it was done smoothly. Liang Feng asked curiously, "Is this related to Professor Xu Mang?"

"Related!" Academician Zhou nodded and said seriously: "The epoxy group is in line with the material axial insulator... The experts of NTU also asked someone else to complete it, and they were also stumped, and this mysterious person was Xu Mang. ”

Liang Feng: ???

What the?

This... It's so complicated here!

But this doesn't mean anything, at most it shows that Xu Mang has absolute strength in the field of materials science.

"I think..."

"It's better to be cautious. Liang Feng said seriously: "Old Zhou... Epoxy-based axial insulators are only in the field of materials science, and they hardly involve nuclear physics, so I think we need to discuss them again. ”

Words fall,

Liang Feng suddenly proposed: "Don't we just have a problem that needs to be solved? This is nuclear physics, and we have to be cautious about it, because if we don't get it right, something big will happen. ”

In the face of Liang Feng's proposal, Academician Zhou finally agreed to this method, one thing he felt that Liang Feng said was very right, this is a research in nuclear physics, and caution is completely normal, if this thing is not done well, it is easy to make big things.

"He'll be here in the afternoon, and I'll mention it then. Academician Zhou said: "Lao Liang... You're making it hard for me. ”

Liang Feng smiled bitterly: "No way... We have to keep the problem to a minimum. ”

...

Afternoon

Xu Mang stood in front of the gate of the Key Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and Nuclear Technology, and sighed a little for a while, why don't you just buy a courtyard house in the capital, you have to come several times this year, and you can't live in the guest house all the time, right?

"Hello!"

"I'm here... Visited. Xu Mang said to the security guard in front of the gate: "My name is Xu Mang... Anyway, do you want to register?"

"Xu..."

"Professor Xu?"

"Why are you here?" The security officer was surprised, hurriedly took out a registration book, handed it to Xu Mang, and said with a smile: "You can register first, and then you can go in." ”

Boom,

Xu Mangxiao wrote down his personal information in a dashing manner, but in the column of the purpose of this trip, he wrote four big words of visit.

"Is this it?"

"There shouldn't be anything wrong..."Xu Mang stood at the door of the academician's office, knocked lightly on the door, and did not push the door until he shouted from inside, please come in.

"It's... Is it Academician Zhou's office?" Xu Mang saw an old man inside, and asked cautiously, "Is it... Is it Academician Zhou? I'm Xu Mang..."

"Professor Xu?"

"I've finally waited for you. After Academician Zhou saw that it was Xu Mang, he got up and helped him pull out the chair and said, "Please sit... I'll pour you a glass of water. ”

afterwards

In a simple greeting,

The two of them got to the point, about the preliminary simulation work of Gyre-2.

"Professor Xu..."

"There's one thing I need to discuss with you. Academician Zhou looked embarrassed, and said with helplessness in his words: "Someone made a suggestion to me, after all, this is a study in nuclear physics, and you have no experience in nuclear physics, so you are worried about it. ”

"You know..."

"When it comes to nuclear energy, it's not a joke, once there's an accident... This would be catastrophic. Academician Zhou said seriously: "Professor Xu... I think you know a lot about that. ”

Xu Mang nodded, he had considered this issue before he came, when it came to nuclear issues, it was estimated that it would be more troublesome, and sure enough... The trouble is coming, since there is trouble, then solve it, but what kind of trouble is it?

"What then?" Xu Mang asked indifferently, "Could it be... Let me take the test?"

"No!"

"In fact, Circulation 2 has some problems, as the first large-scale tokamak device with a deflector position, it is rebuilt using the three major components of the ASDEX main unit. Academician Zhou said: "So... We ran into a problem that we couldn't solve for the time being. ”

"Huh?"

"What's the problem?" Xu Mang looked confused.

"The product of nuclear fusion... Generally divided into charged and uncharged, the charged particles are confined and the energy is deposited in the plasma to achieve heating. Academician Zhou said solemnly: "But this kind of charged particle is another magazine, and it needs to be removed, otherwise it will reduce the fusion reaction rate." ”

"We've made a breakthrough at this point, but... Uncharged neutrons are never resolved, these uncharged neutrons are not confined and they will hit the surrounding materials, creating a huge destructive force. Academician Zhou continued: "We are very embarrassed now, we need these neutrons to generate electricity, and at the same time we want to shield them, what do you think should be done?"

Xu Mang: (°ー°〃)

I...

I don't know?

"I..."

"I'll solve it?" Xu Mang said with a look of horror: "This... This..."

"Professor Xu..."

Academician Zhou smiled helplessly: "It's okay if you can't complete it, this problem is really troublesome." ”

Troublesome?

Joke...

In my Xu Mang dictionary, there is never the word trouble!

"Ahem!"

"Academician Zhou... I accept the challenge!" Xu Mang said indifferently: "Isn't it just a matter of scattering neutron effects... Give me ten days to arrest it!"

"You..."

"You accept it?" Academician Zhou looked at Xu Mang in surprise, he would have refused, after all, this problem is not a general problem, neutrons are the direct products of fusion reactions, and they are the main carrier of fusion energy, and neutron electroneutrality is very complicated, this problem is quite difficult.

Who knows...

Xu Mang was willing to solve it.

It was nothing short of an unexpected surprise, and if it really solves this problem, I have to say... Xu Mang is also an authoritative presence in the field of nuclear physics.

But then again, accepting this challenge doesn't mean he's done.

"That's right!"

"I wanted to get involved in nuclear physics for a long time, but I didn't have the opportunity. Xu Mang said with a smile: "Just take advantage of this opportunity to fill the last blank area in the field of physics and lay the foundation for the unification of physics in the future." ”

Hearing Xu Mang's words,

Academician Zhou was quite surprised, this guy's ambition is not ordinary, he wants to unify physics.

But...

He seems to have achieved a small part, and Xu Yang's structural formula has achieved the structural unity of the macro and micro worlds.

In the following time,

Xu Mang signed the relevant confidentiality agreement, and then left the Key Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and Nuclear Technology with a bunch of materials.

"Hello?"

"Lao Liang... Xu Mang came just now..."Academician Zhou made a phone call to Liang Feng and said seriously: "You're right... And he did. ”

"That's it!"

"In fact, like me, he is extremely proud in his heart. ”

Words fall,

Liang Feng's words were full of worry and helplessness, and he said to Academician Zhou: "Because of this, I have a lot of responsibilities, and I have this experience... However, Professor Xu has more responsibilities than me, and it is more difficult to move forward. ”

"With great power comes great responsibility. Academician Zhou said: "You said that he would accept it, but in the end it ended in failure, I don't think so." ”

"Huh?"

"Do you regret it?" Liang Feng was stunned for a moment.

"Yes!"

"I regret it!"

"The problem of scattering neutron effects... Probably not a problem. Academician Zhou smiled: "Look at it... It's sure to surprise everyone when the time comes!"
