Zhou Chengfu never thought that as soon as his plane landed, he rushed back to the Southwest Institute of Nuclear Physics on the front foot, and an unexpected person followed him on the back foot.

And this person is also the last thing he wants to see......

“…… Our stellarator is still being overhauled, so we have to borrow your HL-2A. I have already applied to the above for this matter, and the Energy Bureau has also made instructions, and Director Lu said that you will fully cooperate with my experiment, so I can't wait to come over. As for the paperwork, it will arrive tomorrow at the latest. Lu Zhou, who was sitting on the sofa in Zhou Chengfu's office, casually explained his intentions, and fiddled with the purple clay pot on the coffee table with great interest, "Your teapot is quite beautiful, where did you buy it?" ”

Staring at Lu Zhou, Zhou Chengfu said expressionlessly: "Aren't you engaged in stellarstellar, what experiments are you doing here?" ”

Lu Zhou: "Pulse ignition. ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhou Chengfu immediately exploded.

"It can't be! Igniting a fire with an experimental pile, are you fucking crazy? ”

Lu Zhou was indifferent to Zhou Chengfu's roar, just smiled and continued.

"I've read related papers, and with the capabilities of HL-2A, the ignition conditions can be fully achieved. I need to test the performance of the new material by simulating the neutron irradiation environment inside the reactor, so I can only ask you. ”

"Don't worry, don't worry about the funds, the tritium consumed by the experiment will be provided by us, you just need to cooperate with our experiment."

After hearing Lu Zhou's request, Zhou Chengfu almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood.

What does it mean that the funds are provided by us?

Is it a matter of money?

And when it comes to money, Zhou Chengfu is heartbroken.

Especially Director Lu's sentence of "full cooperation" made him angry and angry, obviously he did this direction first, but it turned out that he became a stepmother.

"Why don't you go to Daya Bay to do a neutron irradiation experiment?"

Lu Zhou shook his head: "Whether it's Daya Bay, or Dong. The neutron source in Dongguan did not meet the requirements. ”

At present, the latest research plan of international controlled fusion research is to build a point neutron source device based on D-Li interaction to simulate the neutron irradiation environment in fusion reactors. So far, however, the device has remained at the conceptual stage. Now it is mainly the Americans who are researching, and as for the specific step of the research, it is estimated that only they themselves know.

"What about Science Island?" Zhou Chengfu was anxious, and in the spirit of the dead Dao friend immortal poor Dao, he said in a hurry, "You can do that EAST on Science Island, why don't you-"

"I'm going to use yours."

Lu Zhou's words directly blocked all his full stomachs.

Putting down the teapot in his hand, Lu Zhou stood up from the sofa.

Looking at Zhou Chengfu, who was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, he smiled and said in a relaxed tone.

"I've probably offended you anyway, so I'll offend you again today."

Zhou Chengfu's face gradually became gloomy, and his voice gradually lowered.

"You have to think clearly, if our HL-2A is destroyed in your hands, and your demonstration pile is not ready to be made......"

The expression on his face did not change at all, and Lu Zhou said: "I don't bother you to worry about it, the responsibility is naturally mine." ”

"Hmph."

With a cold snort, Zhou Chengfu stood up from the office chair, didn't say anything, and walked out of the office with a gloomy face.

Looking at the back of the old gentleman leaving, Lu Zhou dissipated the smile on his face and returned to his usual expression.

Maybe there was a more tactful approach, but it couldn't be helped, he was pressed for time.

Therefore, I can only say that I can't help it.

……

Counting the first ring of the University of Science and Technology under construction and several have been transferred to the military industry. There are a total of 16 controllable nuclear fusion experimental devices in China.

However, there are only a few that can make the temperature in the reaction chamber reach hundreds of millions of degrees, that is, the temperature at which DT fusion occurs.

HL-2A is one of them, which is naturally the result of the efforts of countless researchers.

Looking at the expression of the technician in charge of overhauling the equipment without tears, Zhou Chengfu didn't even need to ask, he knew that most of this thing was forced to stop.

He glared at Lu Zhou with an angry face, his stomach was now full of fire.

Although he wanted to throw this guy and those dozens of samples into the tokamak for refining, the experiment was done, and he at least had to know that all this was not in vain.

Almost squeezing out this sentence from between his teeth, Zhou Chengfu stared at Lu Zhou and said.

"How did it turn out!"

Ignoring the resentment in his voice, Lu Zhou stared at the SEM image scanned by the scanning electron microscope with a solemn expression for a long time, and finally sighed.

"The situation is not very optimistic."

This time, he brought more than 20 samples, all of which were installed on the surface of the first wall of the tokamak.

These images are all obtained by the staff wearing chemical protective suits who entered the reaction room after the experimental reactor was shut down and cooled, and took these materials to a special department for laboratory testing.

Based on the data available so far, these materials do not perform very well in the reactor.

However, Lu Zhou did not expect an experiment to be successful, and any research is based on repeated trial and error to find a feasible path.

Hearing this, Zhou Chengfu almost vomited blood without being angry.

What does it mean that the situation is not so rosy?

Do you want to do it again in a while?

Rubbing his chin lightly with his index finger, Lu Zhou listened carefully to a few of the pictures, and continued to speak, "The ability to irradiate subs in the fusion environment is too strong, although the transmission performance of SiC and porous mesh graphene aerogel to the neutron beam is quite good, but the neutron beam that penetrates the material still forms multiple Ferinkel defect pairs inside the material. ”

Zhou Chengfu: "What's that?" ”

Lu Zhou was slightly stunned and glanced at him with some surprise.

"Is the Freneckel defect correct? In the crystal structure, because the atom or ion that originally occupied a lattice point leaves the lattice position, it becomes an interstitial atom or ion, leaving a vacancy at the lattice point it originally occupied...... It's a very basic concept in crystallography. ”

Zhou Chengfu's old face turned the color of pig liver, and he subconsciously wanted to choke a few words back.

However, at this moment, he suddenly thought that the guy in front of him was a Nobel laureate in chemistry, and everything he said seemed to be self-inflicted, so he swallowed the words back from his mouth, and only held back a small mutter.

"I'm especially engaged in nuclear physics and plasma physics, not materials......"

Generalists who know everything are in the minority after all.

As the person in charge of the project, he may know a little more, but he definitely doesn't know that deeply.

What's more, the structural materials of HL-2A are not used in this thing, and the use of ceramic matrix composites in reactor structural materials has only been heard about during meetings.

"For example, here, and here," didn't care if Zhou Chengfu understood it, Lu Zhou casually clicked two positions on the image, and said casually, "Do you see these white spots?" When viewed together with the infrared spectroscopy data, it can be inferred that hydrogen occupies the vacancy left by the displacement of interstitial atoms. This indicates that the passage rate of the material to the neutron beam is not good enough, and the neutrons trapped in the material have decayed. ”

He could understand this part, and Zhou Chengfu said with a pale face: "So what's the use of your thing?" ”

"Whether it's useful or not, it depends on who uses it."

Saving the data in the mobile hard drive, Lu Zhou didn't look at Zhou Chengfu's face, and said in a relaxed tone.

"Don't forget the subject of computational materials, but I opened it."
