Volume II, Chapter 83: Semi-Metallic Elements and Shaped Particle Cannons

More than 3,300 meters at a height?

Sima Yun couldn't help but stick out her tongue, she remembered that the examination room should have been on the ground just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt only took a little more than a minute to go up to more than 3,000 meters. "Sure enough, it's alien technology," she said. ”

Zhuang Bifan smiled, took her hand and walked out, and said, "Your body report will take some time to come out, I'll take you to Heiyan." ”

Sima Yun followed him out and asked, "You want to go to an alien planet?"

"It's not. It's a space battleship. ”

"How to get there?"

"We'll find out later. ”

He had taken her into the elevator of Gancai. "The elevator seems to be fast," she asked, "and it doesn't feel like it's moving at all." ”

Zhuang Bifan operated on the screen and explained with a smile: "This is the space displacement device. Because the distance between the various points of the whole Aurora Island is relatively close, and the relative position is fixed, it is relatively simple. ”

After a while, the door to the displacement device opened. Sima Yun really found that the scene outside had been completely edged again.

Zhuang Bifan explained: "This is the inside of the platform. Follow me. ”

They rode in a small cart to the giant displacement device. Sima Yun's face was novel, and she also felt like a country girl who had entered the city for the first time, and she felt fresh when she saw everything.

It was only when the displacement device was activated that she felt a vibration for the first time. Compared to the replacement just now, this made her a little worried. However, Zhuang Bifan's body temperature came from the palm of her hand, which made her feel very relieved.

The process is simple, first the vibration of the lifting is felt, then the vibration of the falling. In the end, everything was calm. When Zhuang Bifan helped her untie the protective equipment, he said, "We have arrived." Wait a minute, we're going to put on a set of protective suits. It's a different environment from the Earth. If you don't protect it, your body will become very fragile, and even if you can withstand it, you will become susceptible to aging. ”

There is nothing a woman fears more than getting old. Hearing that it is easy to grow old if you don't protect it, Sima Yun nodded again and again, saying that she would be obedient.

The two of them put on protective clothing and walked out of the replacement device room, and Sima Yun suddenly found himself very small. Because the space here is empty. The passage is more than 100 meters wide and has a height of 60 or 70 meters. They walked down the aisle as if they had entered the world of giants.

Zhuang Bifan explained: "The body height of the Three-Eyed Man is about 20 times that of our Earth humans. This is their warship, so this space is relatively large. ”

The height of human males is usually between one meter seven and one meter eight, twenty times, that is, giants more than thirty meters tall. Sima Yun felt terrible when she thought about it. Such a giant can hold a human in his hand with one hand. Thankfully, they're finished. If they go to Earth, even if they don't have anything, they can fight against human artillery tanks with stones.

Zhuang Bifan took her to the rest room specially prepared for him. The size of the space here has been adapted to human needs. It made her feel a little safer.

Hearing him say that he no longer needs to wear protective clothing here, she took it off and asked, "What are we doing here?"

"I have something to talk to about Black, and I'm going to work out here for a while. He thought that he would have to wear a hazmat suit even if he wanted to leave here, and that he was training for a long time, and he was worried that she would be bored. He said, "When you can coordinate and control your body, you can also start exercising." One hundred and twenty-six days have passed here, and the earth has only passed one day. So the workout is better here. Before the report comes out, you can watch some of the documentaries made by Black Flame, which will record the development of this space, and you can see what can be used on Earth. If you're bored, I can take you around the Black Flame as well. ”

"Hmm. I'm fine. Sima Yun nodded and said. "But if we stay here for a year, will we be a year older?" If she stayed here for three days, she would be a year older when she returned to Earth, and she didn't want that.

He laughed and said, "Of course not." This room is just as protective as the protective clothing, keeping our body's metabolism in balance. The impact is there, but minimal. He paused, then added. "The last time I was here was almost two years and I didn't even have my hair growing. ”

Hearing him say this, Sima Yun was completely relieved.

Take her to the room and help her find those recorded videos. Zhuang Bifan went to the room that was considered a study, and he called Hei Yan. Hei Yan didn't have a real image, so he directly replaced himself with a voiceprint.

Zhuang Bifan asked it: "Do you know about the discovery of the signal of advanced civilization on the other side of the earth again?" ”

"Yes, I have received a report from Aurora Island. ”

"My previous defense plan was only for the construction of an advanced civilization. And it may not work out. Even if the defense is successful. After a big war, that defense system will definitely be scrapped as well. Maybe even Aurora Island will be destroyed. We simply don't have time to build another defense system. What better can you do about it?"

Black Flame was silent for several minutes. Although he was in a hurry, he didn't ask. He knew that it was calculating all the possibilities in order to find the most appropriate solution.

Hei Yan finally spoke again and said, "Marshal, our researchers are experimenting with a new alloy. This is a lightweight alloy material invented by using semi-metallic elements in black dwarf galaxies found in space 2 based on the metallurgical technology of Kinep. ”

"It's that space with a rate of more than 260 times, a black dwarf semimetallic element, what is that? How many are there?"

"It's that space. No civilization has yet been discovered in that space. But the coordinates of the docking point that we found are located in a very special celestial system. In this system, there are a total of 96 galaxies of very similar shape and size making very strange orbits around a huge ellipsoidal galaxy, and the energy field around them is very strange, and the largest number of stars in this celestial system is the black dwarf.

Semi-metallic elements are exotic crystals with metallic properties that are abundant in these black dwarfs, accounting for at least 65% of the mass of black dwarfs. They should belong to the same elemental family. It is usually composed of one to six carbons 60 atoms. But the carbon atoms that make them up are made up of between five and thirty-five unknown elementary particles. These elementary particles form a proton-like structure, but the mass is much smaller than that of protons, making the diameter of the carbon-60 atom five times the normal one, and even more so that it can expand to between ten and one hundred and twenty times the actual diameter when charged, giving these crystals a very strong energy storage capacity. ”

Because they usually have very distinct metallic properties. At the same time, those elementary particles are only half as many protons, and the number is singular, and it is quite known that there are elements between any two elements in the list of two elements. Let's name these elements semi-metallic elements for the time being. ”

And these semi-metallic elements themselves contain energy that we cannot analyze for the time being. When we use one of the ferrous semi-metal elements as an alloying material, as long as these crystal atoms are evenly distributed in the alloy, the radius of the atoms of the other metals can be expanded by 60% to 90%, making the alloy lighter. At the same time, the energy of crystalline metal atoms can be coupled with the energy of other metal atoms to enhance the hardness and toughness of the alloy. And make the alloy have a certain memory and strong elasticity. At the same time, it has a good absorption effect on kinetic energy and radiant energy. ”

"I'm a little dizzy when I hear it, you say the point! What's the use of this element?"

"This metal is an excellent material for armor and ship frames. It is also an excellent material for weapons and equipment. ”

"You mean to make Earth's defensive weapons out of this alloy?"

"Yes. With this alloy, based on the available experimental data, we used Ginip's weapon technology to make a lower-energy shaped particle kinetic cannon. However, because this kinetic energy cannon is faster-than-light and the shells fired have a certain mass, they will produce great recoil. ”

"That is, it is not suitable for land-based weapons?"

"Not absolutely. As long as it can be equipped with recoil systems and high-performance buffer systems, coupled with a solid foundation, land-based defense systems can theoretically be used. For example, if a particle with a velocity of twice the speed of light and a mass of two kilograms is launched, the reaction will exceed 60,000 tons. After offsetting, with our current technology, perhaps only 10,000 tons of force acting on the ground. ”

"When will it be made? He did the math, twice the speed of light, two kilograms, that would have 180 trillion kilojoules of kinetic energy. Plus the energy contained in the particle cluster itself. An extremely powerful weapon indeed.

"The disadvantage of this weapon is that it consumes a lot of energy and has a relatively low firing frequency. Energy consumption is a key issue that must be considered for land-based deployments. Perhaps a single cannon would require dozens of small fusion reactors to provide enough energy. ”

The kinetic energy of the particle cluster is equivalent to about 50 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity, and the energy consumption is indeed not small. It would take a lot of generators to be able to afford a weapon like that.

"Isn't there any other way? If you just use a generator, it will take a long time just to store energy. ”

"There is a theoretical basis for the solution, but it is not perfect. One of them, a dark red crystalline metal, is a highly efficient energy storage substance, and our researchers are experimenting with using it to make energy storage devices. However, we have not yet found the best ingredient formula. Until now, the highest energy storage capacity of one ton of alloy is only equivalent to 8 billion kilojoules. And the energy coupling for that crystal is only 0.03%. The researchers believe that they should be able to achieve a coupling degree of about 90%. In other words, it is theoretically possible to find a formula of 24 trillion kilojoules of raw material energy storage per ton. ”

Zhuang Bifan's eyes lit up. If that number can be reached, a cannon can fire dozens of such shaped particles by towing a thousand tons of energy storage devices.

"How long does it take to make an energy storage device like that?"

"Unknown. Maybe in a month, you can never find a limit. "It takes luck to make the invention of alloys.
