Chapter 341: Keep an eye on me

With Liu Feng's sketch, Academician Qian Zhengying left the Beijing Institute of High Energy Physics and immediately returned to the Electric Power Research Institute.

At the same time, Academician Tian Xuelin also returned to Shudu to discuss the miniaturization of Pengning's ion trap device, and then worked with Professor Zhuo Hongbo, who followed, to make intensive preparations for the problem of cannon warfare.

Of course, in order to store enough ammunition for the next artillery battle, the Beijing Positron Collider Laboratory is even more riveting to produce antimatter, and the minimum goal set by Liu Feng for them is to store at least 300mg within a month!

Fortunately, in many previous experiments, hundreds of grams of antimatter have been stored, and the storage limit of the Penning ion trap device has also been tested - the longest record has reached 120 days, and after 120 days, due to various reasons such as instrument loss, the antimatter in the device will show a linear relationship reduction, the fundamental reason for this is still due to the material problem of the device, therefore, the 300mg antimatter production target can still be achieved.

All the experiments were simply underpinned with sufficient funds, and the institute was even more extravagant enough to carry out antimatter amplification production again and again without uninterrupted power supply around the clock, and if it were not for the instrument overhaul and maintenance work that had to be carried out at least once a month in the middle of the process, these people would be eager to use the collider as a perpetual motion machine.

Subsequently, a steady stream of antimatter was manufactured and stored in the Pengning ion trap device, and even the capacity of the previous device reached the maximum, and the laboratory would urge the Shudu side to come up with a new device and transport it to the capital to store these cute little guys who cost thousands of times more than gold.

In fact, every antimatter production or storage experiment will indeed cause some damage to the entire collider and the Pengning ion trap device, but fortunately, these damages are still within the scope of repair, even so, these devices stopped running for at least a week in the middle, and Academician Fang Shouxian, who is responsible for managing the positron collider, was distressed for a long time, after all, time is money!

Of course, every overhaul and maintenance will cost at least tens of millions of dollars, which is what Academician Fang is most distressed about.

Of course, the maintenance cost of the device is high, but it is still a small amount compared to the cost of antimatter production.

Not enough, and while the cost of producing antimatter at this stage is expensive, the rewards are quite substantial.

Because they not only produced considerable antimatter, prepared sufficient raw materials for subsequent experiments, but also verified the feasibility and stability of the production technology, especially the continuous improvement of the Penning ion trap device, so that the problem of antimatter storage is finally no longer a problem.

You must know that so far, Shudu has updated the Pengning ion trap device to the third generation!

From the original 1mg experimental device to the 100mg expansion device, it can now be stored up to 1g, and 1g of antimatter is completely enough for a 100-ton spacecraft to run back and forth in the solar system twice.

Therefore, even if Liu Feng did not instruct, Academician Tian would at most advance the device to the fourth generation - it can store 10g of antimatter, and no matter how much, it is no longer of much significance to the current human race;

……

Europe.

Headquarters of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) program.

The eagle's gaze locked on the equipment that was gradually ceasing not far away, and Professor Reginord, who was standing here again, spoke quietly.

"The result?"

Professor Koda took a deep breath and said:

"According to Liu Feng's 'High Energy Particle Strong Electromagnetic Field Mutual Transformation Constraint Theory', we have tried to improve the scheme on the inherent electromagnet coil, and the confinement time of plasma has indeed been greatly improved, but there is still a considerable distance from the time constraint of 1 hour. ”

Reginord: "How long?"

Glancing at the assistant next to him, the excitement on Koda's face had already turned into bitterness.

"It's only 1900 seconds. ”

If you put it a few months ago, the huge number of 1,900 seconds would definitely be able to make the entire ITER organization excited from top to bottom, and it could even be used as a phased achievement to hold a press conference and make a lot of noise in the media, because it is far more than the previous 1,300 seconds of Chinese people.

However, now, for researchers like them, it may be a big progress, but for the outside world, progress in seconds is completely meaningless.

Because investors have invested so much money, what they want to see is a breakthrough in controlled nuclear fusion, or even a commercial use as soon as possible, rather than just an ignition experiment that only progresses in tens of hundreds of seconds.

Professor Reginod nodded, but didn't say anything this time.

Because he was the only one here this time, there were no investor representatives, no government officials, and no media reporters.

As the rotating president of ITER, he knows no need to be too harsh on these people.

Any research has its own objective law of development, and impatience cannot solve any problem except to give rise to trouble.

After being silent for a while, Koda Yasuo suddenly spoke:

"Are the Chinese still reluctant to share the latest technology with us?"

Reginord shook his head: "So, recently the members of the council have been replanning to kick Hua Guo out of the ITER organization. ”

Koda Yasuo took a deep breath and muttered in a low voice, "I really don't understand, why didn't we take them away at the beginning, but waited until now?"

In fact, since Huaguo's EAST device has been running stably for 1,300 seconds, there have been people on the ITER side who are planning to kick Huaguo out of the organization, but until now, no agreement has been reached, on the grounds that Huaguo has taken the lead to a certain extent, and instead of kicking these people out of the organization, it is better to seek a win-win situation from cooperation to a certain extent.

In fact, they succeeded, and the ITER side also got a detailed explanation of Huaguo's 'Theory of Mutual Transformation of High Energy Particles and Strong Electromagnetic Fields' to Liu Feng, and Huaguo also got a lot of good things from the ITER side.

However, it was not until the potential of the 'Theory of Interaction Confinement of High Energy Particles with Strong Electromagnetic Fields' was squeezed out that they found that they could only extend the ignition test to about 2,000 seconds at most, and after that, there was no way to delay it......

There is always a feeling that I have lost a lot.

Therefore, they are quite sure that the Chinese still have a hand on their side, even if they don't have that!

Reginord nodded slowly:

"Because we always believed that in this kind of exploration of the future, cooperation is far more meaningful than competition, but now it seems that competition is the eternal theme, and those damn Chinese people have always been suspicious of us!"

It seemed to understand the meaning of Reginod's expression, but Koda Yasuo did not express his opinion on this, but nodded slowly.

But in his heart he pouted - hypocritical Caucasians!

Isn't it up to you people to choose cooperation or competition? Now that the tofu is finished, it's time to unload the grinding and kill the donkey!

Looking at the equipment that was gradually ceasing, neither of them spoke.

"Mr. President, the latest news, Huaguo's side, it seems that there is another big move!"

The assistant hurried from outside the door of the laboratory, still holding a document in his hand.

Reginod frowned, and hurriedly took the information from his assistant, which was the confidential information transferred to him by the national intelligence agency, and was shocked:

"Hmm, magnetofluid generators, have the Chinese people already carried out controlled nuclear fusion to the stage of power generation experiments?"

……

However, unlike the information in Reginod's hand, the information on the side of the M people is more abundant.

Central Intelligence Agency of Country M, inside the Director's Office.

Webb stared at the information that Adair handed over, and frowned.

"In addition to magnetofluid power generation for controlled nuclear fusion, you say that the Chinese are also likely to conduct large-scale electromagnetic weapons experiments in Lop Nur?"

"That's right!" Adair nodded affirmatively.

Since the failure of the last plan to lure the snake out of the hole, he was almost put into the 'cold palace' by the CIA council, if it weren't for the fact that he still has some connections behind him, and he has always been Webb's henchman, maybe he would have really collapsed from now on.

However, even if he escaped, he could only continue to fight Webber now, and the opportunity to be alone was almost non-existent.

Therefore, for Liu Feng, he hated it to the core, once the CIA had this guy's troubles, Yadar would collect them as soon as possible;

"These days, we have discovered that a lot of large-scale equipment has been shipped to Lop Nur at the Naval Engineering University in China; moreover, some time ago, our people also discovered that Liu Feng had been to the Naval Engineering University and had been in contact with Ma Mingwei for a long time; soon after, news came out that Ma Mingwei's experiment had made a breakthrough, and it was hard to imagine that without Liu Feng's credit! As for what Ma Mingwei was studying, it was no secret to us at all. ”

"Large electromagnetic weapons?" Webber nodded, indicating understanding.

As a kind of future weapon development trend, electromagnetic weapons are well-deserved stars of tomorrow, and both country M and China have invested heavily in research.

However, it is gratifying to congratulate that on the side of country M, it seems that they are once again ahead of China, and as early as 10 years ago, the navy department has already conducted tests of electromagnetic weapons, and the results are naturally very gratifying.

On the Huaguo side, there has been no news of the latest progress in electromagnetic weapons, and it seems not surprising that there is finally news this time.

After all, no matter how you say it, it's a step later than their side of country M, isn't it?

"Adel, you should know that apart from the news of controlled nuclear fusion, the news of Huaguo's electromagnetic weapons test does not seem to be enough to make us make a fuss. ”

"Sir!" Adair's face showed a long-lost confidence, "My opinion is just the opposite! Putting aside the news of controlled nuclear fusion for the time being, we must pay the highest attention to China's electromagnetic weapons project, otherwise we will inevitably miss something crucial." There are three reasons for this!"

"First, although our M Lijian's electromagnetic weapon seems to be one step ahead of Huaguo and has been tested, until now, it has not formed actual combat capability at all, and it is not enough for Huaguo to form an overwhelming advantage!"

"Second, Ma Mingwei's side belongs to the category of the Chinese Navy after all, and the test of an electromagnetic cannon is merely a one-kilometer electromagnetic gun, and the Chinese country, which has a coastline of more than 10,000 kilometers, can't it find a place to conduct an electromagnetic weapon test? Why do you have to go to Lop Nur to conduct an experiment, and still mobilize the masses so much? It doesn't look like testing an ordinary electromagnetic weapon at all, and there must be a big secret hidden in it!"

"Third, once anything has anything to do with Liu Feng, it must not be a trivial matter - water treatment super materials, the grand unified theory, and controlled nuclear fusion...... Even the recent rapid development of Huaguo in the field of materials is said to be the credit of that guy! Therefore, for Liu Feng, we must not be negligent!"

Liu Feng?

Hearing this name, Webber's expression also became a little serious.

The failure of Adair's previous operation was not his failure?

After all, basically all the plans were made by him, and Adair was just an executor, and from Adair's later action summary, he really didn't see any omissions, but it was such a 'seamless' plan, and the young man just wasn't fooled!

I have to say that it was he Webb who underestimated Liu Feng!

Therefore, Adair's analysis is absolutely penetrating.

Ma Mingwei himself is a genius scientist, he has long been registered in the CIA, and he is extremely high, this time he has added an even more genius Liu Feng, the two are combined, what kind of chemical reaction will happen?

In addition, this time Huaguo made such a big move, transporting weapons from the coast to the inland, and invited so many heavyweight guests, there is no secret in this, and Webb will not believe it.

"Very well, Adair, you really didn't disappoint me!" Webber nodded in satisfaction, "If this time it is as you say, I will give you another chance!"

Adair was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was light-hearted: "Thank you, sir, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Weber is even more satisfied, his secretary has become more and more calm after the last tempering, maybe he will really have the possibility of being alone in the future?

"Tell me to go down, immediately, immediately! Except for those moles, everyone else will be active for me, whether it is the Global Hawk or the spy satellite in the sky, as long as it can work, they will all be activated for me, and Liu Feng and Lop Nur will be closely watched for me! This time, I must know what the hell they are doing, and the parameters of Huaguo's electromagnetic weapons must also be obtained for me!"

"Yes, sir!"
