Beijing, Institute of High Energy Physics, Beijing Positron Collider Laboratory.

In the office, holding the high-end water cup given to him by Liu Feng (of course, it is produced by Jinhua, it must be a gold product), Academician Wang Yifang, who had just returned from participating in the show, stared at the ceiling upstairs with a long thought.

Although he also thinks that he has already experienced wind and rain and weather, what has happened in the past six months has made him feel dazzled, dizzy, and even powerless!

First, on a whim, he accepted a disciple who entered the room;

Then this disciple was not ordinary, and during the internship period, he unexpectedly helped the teacher Ding Zhaozhong discover the six-quark particles;

Subsequently, he successively discovered characteristic peaks and pentaquark state particles outside the Standard Model on ERN.

After returning to China, this guy went to the sky, quietly came up with the Great Unification Theory, and went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology lecture hall to make a report, announcing this amazing discovery in front of the world, and became the "Einstein of the 21st century" in the eyes of the world in one fell swoop!

Are you sure this guy is really my Wang Yifang's apprentice?

The apprentice is so rebellious, but his teacher is not known, have you ever considered his feelings as a teacher? Since he returned from China, he has not dared to mention to outsiders that he is Professor Liu's teacher!

Therefore, how could Academician Wang not be full of resentment.

Although Alexander, but with such an excellent disciple, his teacher is actually very pleased, in the words of an old friend, it is green smoke on the ancestral tomb.

However, that's not all!

Since his precious apprentice returned to China, he actually went up to heaven and directly asked the Great Elder what kind of antimatter project he was going to do!

What a wickedness!

Antimatter engineering, is it so easy to do?

You know, the Chinese people have been engaged in it for decades, and the funds invested before and after are not one trillion but 800 billion, and it is still US dollars, but until now, in addition to the technology of some leftovers, the core antimatter production technology has not seen the practical day at all.

And this kid is good, he swears that it won't take 5 years to get it out!

5 years?

Why don't you go to heaven!

The most surprising thing is that the Council of Elders even agreed!

What the hell is wrong with this world?

Is the world crazy or is he Wang Yifang crazy?

Or is he out of date?

Alas, old bastard!

It's a pity that it's easy to get on the boat and difficult to get off the ship, and he inadvertently got on Liu Feng's thief ship, and it was impossible for him to regret it, especially after this thing was made into a national project!

Obviously, he swore wholeheartedly to do a good job in his theoretical physics research, but he was inexplicably fooled into getting on the boat by Liu Feng, and later he had to wipe all kinds of butts, and even the super collider project that he had worked so hard to design with countless youth and sweat has now become this guy's wedding dress!

Is......

Thinking of this, Academician Wang only felt that his stomach was full of fire and he couldn't spread it.

"What a thing to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors!"

Staring at the ceiling with a lot of thoughts, Academician Wang suddenly said something coldly.

"Boss, who deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors?"

Liu Feng, who happened to enter the door, happened to hear Boss Wang's sentence that seemed to crawl out of the Nine Hells, and he couldn't help but feel cold, "Is it Senior Brother Wen Yanyi? That guy is really a dog-like thing! Don't worry, I'll help you cut him when you get back!"

Academician Wang: "......"

He took a deep breath, otherwise he felt that he would accidentally be by this guy!

Thinking of his apprentices, he had a headache, it was really no better than the other!

Guo Shengfei is okay, barely reluctantly still his duty, Liu Feng needless to say, only Wen Yanyi's kid is simply a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water!

You said that you have such an excellent senior brother, and such a demonic junior brother, and more importantly, there is such a talented and gorgeous teacher, do you really not have a sense of crisis?

If he doesn't watch it for a day, this guy will dare to go out and fool around, just play ball and keep fit, and often go out to go to bars and discotheques, such a big person, it's really not worry-free at all!

In the future, how can he be said to be his Wang Yifang's apprentice!

Shaking his head, everyone has their own ambitions, and there is really no way to take him.

"Say, what's the matter this time!" Looking at Liu Feng, Boss Wang was not angry.

"Boss, I want to transform the Beijing Positron Collider. ”

"Retrofit the collider?"

Academician Wang's voice instantly raised two notches,

"Give me a reason!"

Liu Feng sighed: "This is still the idea I got from Mr. Yu Minyu. That's the case, didn't I go with Zhang Qin to invite many people before, but people don't seem to look down on your apprentice. ”

"How?"

"We invited a total of 10 academicians, and we thought we could recruit 60, but in the end, half of the plan was not achieved. Thinking of Yu Lao's previous mention and Academician Li Yongfeng's statement, Liu Feng shook his head helplessly, "Those people are the masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and they think that the large-scale mass production technology of antimatter cannot be made in a short period of time. ”

Academician Wang nodded.

If Liu Feng was not his apprentice, and he had exchanged many theories in this area with him, I am afraid that he would not have joined this project so easily, after all, the Chinese people have learned from the past!

"And what do you decide to do?"

"What Yu Lao means is that let me make something first, so that they can see that our project is not a magnifying cannon, nor is it a mirror, but a fragrant bait that can really see the results. ”

"So, you want to use the Beijing Positron Collider to create antimatter?" Academician Wang's eyes widened.

Electron collider Electron collider, as soon as you hear the name, you know, this is an electron-level collision accelerator; it is indeed easy to make positrons, but it is probably not so simple to make antihydrogen atoms; after all, electrons and proton nuclei are not at all the same level of things, and the energy required to accelerate the proton nucleus to the same speed as the electron is not an order of magnitude at all, according to the mass-energy equation, the mass of the former is only 1/600 of the latter!

And the Beijing Positron Collider, after all, is still too small!

"Are you sure?" Academician Wang took a deep breath with a full face, but the trembling fingers could very well show that his heart was not at peace at this time - it was heartache!

The Beijing Positron Collider is like his child, and now that someone wants to use a knife on it, and they are still making a big move, how can he not be heartbroken? After all, the Super Collider project has just begun, and in recent years, only this collider can be used, and if this guy breaks it, he will have no place to cry!

"Of course, I never do things that I am not sure of!" Liu Feng was full of confidence, "No, don't you just discuss it with you? You are always an expert in this field, it is impossible to watch me tinker with it, right?"

Academician Wang: "......"

You guy didn't plan it at all!

Pit daddy, oh no, pit teacher!

……

Although the Beijing Positron Collider (BEP) is known as one of the world's eight high-energy accelerator centers and the first high-energy accelerator in China, it is already older than Liu Feng.

When it was first designed and built, its accelerator, transportation line, and storage ring were not worse than 500 meters in length, not to mention that compared with the 100-kilometer-long accelerator of the Super Collider under design and construction, even compared with the accelerator of ERN, it was not an order of magnitude rival.

And in addition to the accelerator can not be compared, the related testing equipment is also completely incomparable, the former is only 6 meters high, weighing 500 tons, the latter is tens of meters high, weighing 6000 tons, no wonder domestic high-energy physicists, so eager to see through the super collider.

After all, compared to the Super Collider, the Beijing Positron Collider is just like a toy!

Nevertheless, since its completion and operation in 1990, this toy-like collider has indeed created conditions for China to carry out high-energy physics experiments, and has achieved a number of important research results that have had an impact on the international high-energy physics community.

For example, the accurate measurement of the mass of t leptons, the accurate measurement of the reaction cross section (r value) of the positive and negative electrons against the hadron in the energy region of 20-5 billion electrons, the discovery of new resonance states at the mass threshold of "proton-antiproton", the discovery of new particles of x(185), etc.;

At the same time, it can also be used as a "dual-purpose machine" and become a large-scale public experimental platform for synchrotron radiation in many disciplines in China, and has achieved important results including the determination of a large number of important protein structures.

It can be regarded as a great merit!

However, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, a generation of new people replace the old, the times are moving forward, this 'veteran' is about to come to the end of its life; once the new super collider is completed, BEP will withdraw from the stage of history, at this time it can also be used for Liu Feng to transform, give full play to the residual heat, and can be regarded as making the best use of things.

Standing at the door, I once again looked at this 'old guy' who has made great contributions to the domestic high-energy physics community: the mottled fuselage is a witness to the erosion of the years, and the slight coldness in the palms of my hands is the legacy of the tears of countless predecessors, however, now, it is about to be transformed beyond recognition by Liu Feng's bad things, how can Academician Wang not touch the scene and feel a lot of emotion?

"Boy, since the construction of this collider, it has gone through generations of laboratory directors, and the directors of each generation have cherished it, maintained it, and never added it to others, lest it be damaged somewhere;

Liu Feng shook his head and comforted: "Boss, you can rest assured, if the two seniors want to scold, they will only scold me, after all, who makes me the culprit? What's more, to make this collider a pioneer in antimatter engineering and witness the historic moment of our country, the two seniors know about it, and they must be able to smile at Jiuquan." ”

"The director is reasonable, but who knows if your kid can succeed?" Academician Wang shook his head, and said helplessly, "Following your kid to do things is simply a heartbeat! Spending tens of billions of instruments, if it gets messed up at that time, your teacher and I can only apologize with death!"

Playing with a heartbeat?

This sentence sums up very well, Liu Feng not only disagreed, but was also a little proud; no, it can't be called proud, this is the unique self-confidence of a great scientist!

He is confident that he can control the transformation of the collider, he is confident that he will be able to succeed in the antimatter project, and he is confident that he will be able to write the legend of Liu Feng in the history of human society!

Otherwise, who have you ever seen who had the courage to propose a national project like antimatter engineering at the age of 18?

Just because he is Liu Feng!

He was confident that even if he lost the ability to control the microcosm now, with the knowledge and abilities he had in his head now, he would be able to handle such a big project!

Heaven does not give birth to me Liu Feng, and the eternity is as dark as a long night!

"Boss, it's too late for you to regret it now!"

Confidence is self-confidence, Liu Feng still sighed, after all, not everyone is him Liu Feng!

"Forget it, they're all on your thief ship, where is the choice!"

Academician Wang shook his head rather wistfully, and finally gritted his teeth and said,

"That's it, change!"

……

At the beginning of the construction of the Beijing Positron Collider, it not only promoted the basic research of high-energy physics and related fields in China, but also strongly drove the great leap forward of China's related high-tech industries, and promoted the remarkable progress of computer, detection technology, medical accelerator, irradiation accelerator and industrial T industries, and produced economic and social benefits far beyond the construction of Bunsen.

For example, in terms of magnets and microwave components, after the construction of the collider, the domestic design and research and development level has reached the international level, and has successively exported high-tech products such as accelerator tubes, energy multipliers, and microwave system waveguide components to China, Toray, Noodle Country, and Nanbang Country;

At the same time, the breakthrough of microwave and high-frequency technology has played a positive role in the development of China's television and broadcasting industry, and a number of technologies are used in the mass production of color TV transmitter klystron tubes;

The relevant ultra-high vacuum technology research has also made a great breakthrough in the ultra-high vacuum basic technology required for the development of high technology in China, such as a number of enterprises such as Modu Vacuum Pump Factory and Shenyang Scientific Instrument Development Center, which have the ability to produce ultra-high vacuum systems and provide high-quality products to scientific research units, aerospace industry, electronics industry and other departments.

Like the original plan, the reason why Liu Feng embarked on the antimatter engineering project is not only to grasp the future energy structure, but also to promote the development of basic science and technology in China.

Although this renovation work did not have a far-reaching impact on all aspects compared to the original construction, many key components were designed and developed by a large group of academicians led by Liu Feng themselves, and adopted a unique method in the world, at least the least, and it was able to accumulate valuable experience for the production and construction of the super collider.

The previous Beijing Positron Collider consisted mainly of an injector and a beam transport line, a storage ring, a Jingcheng spectrometer and a synchrotron radiation device, which had no effect on the production and detection of antimatter, so it was not modified this time.

The part of the transformation is mainly concentrated on the beam transportation line and the storage ring, because the energy intensity required to accelerate the proton increases, and the original beam transportation line can not meet the requirements, so on the original basis, increase and thicken;

As for the storage ring, Liu Feng mainly added a set of ultra-high-energy laser emitting devices on its basis, and the protons after high-energy acceleration can accelerate the transformation process of electric charge under the irradiation of ultra-high-energy laser, which is also one of the means by which Liu Feng can produce antimatter on a large scale;

Huaguo has always been at the world's leading level in the field of ultra-high-energy lasers, and even the country's technology accumulation in this area is dwarfed; therefore, when Liu Feng submitted the design requirements to the brother units, the people over there took the order very happily.

Of course, there are other aspects of the transformation work, which will not be described here, lest the people of the ocean next door know about the later intercontinental pursuit, which will be very bad.

After 10 days of argumentation by the same expert, Liu Feng handed over the transformation of the collider to Boss Wang, and his old man was fully responsible.

Finally, half a month passed in a flash, and the matters on the Beijing side were arranged, Liu Feng patted his ass and left, and came to the plasma laboratory in Hefei......
