"Academician Wang, the above has officially decided to establish a stellar simulator project." Today, Academician Wang was still researching in the laboratory, and suddenly another colleague came up and told him bad news.

Academician Wang nodded and said calmly, "I know." ”

The voice was calm, but the hand that held the pen revealed his inner feelings.

When Max Planck Labs replied that the WEGA stellar deal could be negotiated, he knew that the stellar project must be unstoppable.

At that time, he reacted, his side was too anxious, Lu Yi did not show any movement but took the initiative to guide public opinion to provoke, and he shot first but did not crush the strength of the other party, which was undoubtedly equivalent to sending his own shortcomings and weaknesses to the door.

Of course, maybe the other party doesn't care at all.

Academician Wang shook his head bitterly, and only then did he really understand that the other party who controls the power of capital and himself who have to intrigue for research funds are not of the same grade from the beginning.

I need to slap the table with my peers, stare at each other, argue, suppress, and conceal some report data with a clear conscience, etc., in order to get a small amount of funds from above, and then save money every day to spend.

On the premise of not breaking the law, the other party is smashing billions of billions, supercomputing, top-level experimental instruments and equipment, and even the WEGA stellarite that was originally considered absolutely impossible to trade, these are all very easy.

This is how envious and yearning a scientific researcher is, and Academician Wang can be regarded as exactly how terrifying the power from capital is.

"Let's hurry up, according to the mathematical model of plasma turbulence, I have a few ideas to solve the magnetic surface tearing of the tokmak device, and let's improve the test together."

Academician Wang took a deep breath and said: "Although the above funds are now divided into two halves, the funds allocated this time are also more than the last time, and the research on the Tokmak device has not been greatly restricted.

As long as the Tokmak device commercializes nuclear fusion before the stellarator, the trend will still be on our side. ”

Academician Wang was able to become the head of the domestic tokmak not by virtue of his heart and intrigue, but by his real ability and never greedy for ink.

All his hearts and intrigues are for the research project he leads to have more resources and can do more with fewer resources, which is a helpless choice under the premise of limited resources.

......

As time passed, after the WEGA stellarator signed a trading agreement, in mid-May, an ocean-going cargo ship from Western Europe that had been at sea for 31 days sailed in from the mouth of the Pearl River and anchored at Yangcheng Port.

He was already waiting for the relevant transport personnel to transfer the packed stellar simulator equipment from the freighter and transport it to Lu Yi's laboratory as soon as possible.

Standing at the bottom of the physics laboratory, just a few days after I came back, Lu Yi, who personally led the team to the Max Planck laboratory in Germany for more than 20 days of training, looked at the pile of equipment worth tens of billions of yuan in front of him, took a deep breath and said: "Let's go!" Assemble the equipment first, and ask a few engineers if there is anything you don't understand. ”

"Yes."

Behind him, whether it was Zhang Qing or others, their faces were full of excitement when they looked at this pair of equipment.

After training in advance, and under the guidance of two engineers from Max Planck Laboratory, Lu Yi and others went from unfamiliar to familiar to handy, and a group of people spent 3 days in the laboratory to successfully assemble the stellar simulator that had been renamed "Tomorrow".

"Each team, check the assembly of each component, and then control the supercomputer of the central connection."

Wearing gloves on his hands, Lu Yi asked the members who were assembling to confirm the inspection again, and then turned his head to one of the two engineers who dug up from the Max Planck laboratory and asked, "Beck, after the mathematical model of plasma turbulence was established, has this big guy conducted a test of new control parameters in the Max Planck laboratory?" ”

"Lu, this is not this, in addition to the previous collection of plasma data started, we have the spiral stone 7-X when the plasma turbulence mathematical model is successfully established."

Baker, who is nearly 40 years old, shook his head and said, "Lu, are you planning to adjust the control parameters for the power-on test now?"

I suggest that the power-on test should be carried out without changing the original parameters, and then adjust it after everyone is familiar with the power-on test under the original control parameters, so that in the process of adjustment, everyone will have a further understanding of this stellarator.

In the process of adjusting the control parameters, it is also necessary to fine-tune the physical structure of the external magnetic field coil according to the data model of plasma turbulence, so that the confined magnetic field and the plasma are more compatible. ”

The establishment of the mathematical model of plasma turbulence mainly makes everyone understand what the real fluid shape of the plasma inside the controllable nuclear fusion device is, and then adjust the stellarator according to this.

Figuratively, the plasma in the original stellar simulator is like a naughty child who cannot predict rampage, although the child has to run according to the confined orbit under the external confined magnetic field, but every time it collides, part of the plasma penetrates the confined magnetic field, thus causing damage to the inner wall of the stellarumer.

After establishing a mathematical model of plasma turbulence in nuclear fusion, everyone has a more accurate prediction of the collision route of this naughty child.

Through this information, the control parameters of the stellar simulator can be adjusted, the confined magnetic field can be strengthened and weakened, or the external magnetic field coil can be adjusted to expand and shrink the magnetic field confinement space to achieve the most appropriate efficiency.

Of course, in reality, the plasma turbulence in the controllable nuclear fusion device is not static, but this little guy is constantly changing, and in order to achieve precise control, it needs a supercomputer and a high-precision and high-sensitivity probe on the stellar simulator to adjust it in real time.

"Lu Lu, all the components have been checked, and there are no omissions." After chatting with Baker for a while, Zhang Qing came over and said with some urgency.

"We first follow the original control parameters of the Max Planck laboratory to energize the test, collect data while familiarizing, and then adjust the control parameters and the physical parameters of the outer coil according to the mathematical model of plasma turbulence."

Lu Yi saw Zhang Qing's expression, smiled and said, "You are the person in charge of the stellar project." ”

He doesn't want to meddle in the specific research of the project, maybe there is a system, even if the potential of the scientist is not as high as Zhang Qinggao, the research progress of the project he leads will be better, but his personal energy is limited after all, and he cannot participate in the research of all projects perfectly.

Therefore, it is more in line with the interests of participating in specific experimental research and controlling the overall direction of research to divide the projects one by one.

"Okay."

Zhang Qing nodded seriously, took a deep breath, turned to the laboratory research institute looking at him, and said, "Everyone exit the stellar simulator area, each group of researchers is in place, and tomorrow the stellar will be ready for a power-on test!" ”
