Act 129. Ouroboros (ask for subscription~)

The Crescent Moon Academy on a summer night, the insects chirped, the noise was unbearable, and it was the end of the white dew month, it was midsummer, but Reiner was still in the laboratory, looking intently at the complex structure of the magic circle in front of him.

This was designed by Fina's father, and can be driven by standard magic stones, even if it is an electromagnetic acceleration circle that a low-level mage can control, its principle is that positively charged or negatively charged particles in motion will be deflected by force in the magnetic field, due to different masses, so the degree of deflection is also different, and these particles can be separated by shooting these particles into the magnetic field with a certain initial velocity.

On Earth, a similar device called a magnetic separator is the prototype of a mass spectrometer, which is often used to separate nuclei with the same number of nuclear charges but different masses, that is, isotopes.

Reiner's first experiment was to place the "Burren" element that he had previously measured with different relative elemental masses in a magic circle to verify that it contained two nuclides with different relative atomic masses.

Buzz –

When five standard magic stones were placed into the driving part of the circle, and the magic power was slightly lit, a buzz sounded in the air, as if some kind of abnormal movement was brewing.

An undetectable ray of light appeared from the side of the circle, a stream of negatively charged particles, or electrons, generated by the circle using pre-stored materials.

Because most of the elemental elements in nature are neutral and uncharged, this flow of electrons is used to bombard the element, causing it to split into scattered free electrons and positively charged nuclei.

Of course, Fina's father didn't go so far into the microcosm, he could only do so to expose the otherwise uncharged elements to electromagnetic fields.

Reiner gradually moved the electron stream so that it crashed into a cloud of atomized "Burren" elements.

In the microscopic world, which is beyond the reach of the naked eye, the high-speed flow of electrons collided with the dense elemental cloud, and in the moment of passing by, some magical force caused the electrons that originally surrounded the nucleus to wander out and rush forward with their own kind.

The rest, the nucleus that had lost its guard, was pulled by an even more powerful force and involuntarily rushed forward.

As the electric and magnetic fields activated, in the corners that Reiner could not see, countless tiny particles moved with the grace of that amazing law, and they moved forward, gradually drifting away from the straight line, continuing forward, and finally reaching the end of their journey, the receiving plate.

The plate is constantly receiving the impact of particles, but the force of these impacts is too small to move the behemoth even a little, but the nature of the receiving plate determines that when a particle touches its surface, a trace will gradually appear on the receiving plate.

Here, Reiner was already able to observe the experimental phenomena.

He saw that on the receiving board, two traces were gradually emerging, they were different shades of color, but they could be accurately distinguished, and on the other side of the receiving plate, another trace was also clearly visible, which was left by electrons.

Through this experiment, it can be clearly seen that the Brenn element has two atoms with different masses of relative elements!

Reiner did not rush to conclusions, and did the same experiment on several other elements, and finally obtained the same result.

Fina's father's magic can indeed separate isotopes!

Suppressing his excitement, Reiner continued his experiments, this time separating the special gas that Fina's father had found.

Reiner repeated the experiment using the normally prepared Knightlen gas, and three marks appeared on one side of the receiving plate, as described by Fina's father.

After a simple calculation, it can be known that the two isotopes of Knightron gas should be close to each other, with relative elemental masses of 14.00307 and 15.00108, respectively, while the element that is further away should have an elemental mass of 39.98062, which is between the element "Croling" and the element "Kayla".

This is exactly one of the elements predicted by Reiner in his paper, and in the list of elements of Lord Stenion, there is nothing here.

Reiner then revised the description of his previous paper about the existence of an element between the elements "Florin" and "Thordeon", arguing that the elemental properties should be similar to those discovered by Fina's father, and that it would be difficult to separate from other places, and that it might require more than four rings of freezing magic to find by liquefiing gas.

At the same time, he also put forward some conjectures about the internal structure of the element, that the element is composed of such negatively charged particles and mass-bearing, positively charged atoms, so that they are neutral, in the past, people have always thought that the elemental particle is a single solid sphere, but Reiner pointed out that the elemental particle may not be the case, according to the Newington-Holland equation, the structure of the elemental particle may be more like a model of a negatively charged particle revolving around the nucleus.

Of course, with Reiner's knowledge on Earth, such a model is not correct, but based on the available knowledge, he can only deduce it to this extent.

Revisions to academic papers are usually made after receiving review comments, and these revisions are directly attached to the original manuscript after being reviewed, similar to patches, so that when the original author wants to fix some minor mistakes, he does not have to write a new paper with a high degree of similarity.

After the experiment was done and cleaned up, it was already late at night, and the students left behind in the school had already fallen asleep, and the campus was silent.

Reiner weaved his way down the hallway and back to his room.

He sat at his desk and looked at the materials he had put together.

Reiner will be Fina's father, Kelavin. Nabistin's research materials were organized into categories, with more than 100 pages of drafts, and since these drafts were mere experimental notes and drafts, not in the form of papers, Reiner's job now was to recount Fina's father's findings in rigorous language.

Now, he has to compare his experimental records with those of Fina's father, correcting some errors caused by theoretical errors, which is a delicate and patient task.

When the groundwork was done, and the clock in the room showed exactly two o'clock in the morning, Reiner stretched, stood up, and was about to change his clothes and go to bed, only to see that his bed had been taken first.

The tiger-striped kitten was curled up in the middle of the bed, with its feet facing the sky, its little belly exposed, lying on the bed in a seemingly awkward-looking position, not paying the slightest attention to the actions of its owner.

It's a pity that this cat won't turn into a cat-eared lady with cute animal ears, Reiner sighed in his heart, ignoring the sleeping kitten, and lay down on the bed and gently shook the thin bedding.

Unexpectedly, the cat just rolled over, had no intention of waking up at all, and continued to purr slightly.

"Okay."

Reiner was helpless, covered the quilt, and looked out the window at the starry sky.

The stars, like particles that are constantly being accelerated in the electromagnetic field, collide, shatter, and part, and finally fall on the pitch-black curtain, shining brightly.

The electrons that revolve around the nucleus at high speed are like stars, dragging under the gravitational pull of the stars, and the microcosm and macrocosm reach a harmonious unity in unexpected places, just like the reincarnation of the Ouroboros, which is intoxicating.
