Chapter 242 [Light Guide Engine]

Since Zhou Huang followed Gu Cheng, he has learned more and more knowledge, and it is no exaggeration to say that Xiao Zhou is now better than many scientists, and he also likes to ask Gu Cheng some questions.

Probably that's what it means to stand next to the giants.

But this time, Xiao Zhou felt that his braincase was also going to have a rhythm of quantum fluctuations.

I also understand a truth, quantum mechanics is the best way to test whether a person is not self-sufficient, quantum mechanics must be learned according to one's ability, otherwise people will be driven crazy, only the boss of this kind of freak and pervert can talk and laugh so calmly and leisurely to bring out the theory one by one.

After more than ten minutes, Xiaoqing's voice came.

"Master, the simulation is successful."

Gu Cheng was in high spirits when he heard this, and he passed it in one go, which was really wonderful, and he snapped his fingers and moved his wheelchair back to the panel console to continue working.

The difference between geniuses and ordinary people is that ordinary people spend a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources to figure out a scientific principle, and genius can easily describe a formula and solve it, so genius is synonymous with BUG, and there has never been a shortage of such geniuses in history.

And Gu Chengcheng showed off, if genius is a BUG, Gu Chengcheng is a scoundrel, just like a photon, other material particles have a half-life, a short ten minutes, and even shorter, and a long half-life of billions of years, and photons will not decay.

Gu Cheng sat in front of the console, crossed his arms and considered for a while, and said, "Xiaoqing, create a new folder and index it...... Light guide engine. ”

Xiaoqing: "The file index has been created."

Gu Cheng nodded, paused for a moment and then started to work, and then it was quiet here, and from time to time Gu Cheng's voice was heard talking to himself, which was actually communicating with Xiaoqing.

"A superconducting plate needs to be installed here to increase the thrust ......"

Although Zhou Huang's brain hurts, he still doesn't want to let go of such an opportunity to get in touch with the truth so closely, and he watches seriously.

Gu Cheng installed a flat superconducting plate at one end and a strangely shaped non-conductive plate at the other end, which minimized the internal Doppler frequency shift, which would make the thrust of the engine more powerful.

At the same time, because the superconducting plate can be made into a flat shape, the cost is saved.

Zhou Huang, who witnessed all this, suddenly felt that if Gu Cheng's plan to build a light core and light guide engine were made public, the academic community would be shocked, and doubts would follow.

Because the conceptual principles of both the light core and the light guide engine are exaggerated, and even this design is considered by many scientists to be a violation of the laws of physics.

The light guide engine alone is enough to surprise many scientists, because according to Gu Cheng's design principle, it seems to violate the law of conservation of momentum.

Momentum is conserved, i.e., every force will have a reaction force of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

Therefore, the rocket spews flames to produce thrust, so that the rocket can only accelerate forward.

In fact, the "light guide engine", like other engine engines, has to be discharged outward, so it does not violate the law of conservation of momentum.

The working principle is the same, but the fuel is a photon of microwave length, and light has wave-particle duality, so light is also a wave, and it is the use of microwaves to bounce off in a closed environment to generate thrust.

Photons bounce back and forth, and there is always a part of it that interferes completely destructively.

In a fully interferometric electromagnetic field, the two photons will cancel out completely, but the photon pair itself will continue to diffuse, and a double-slit interference experiment will explain the principle.

When two waves meet, if the dip and trough overlap, they cancel each other out, but the water does not disappear.

Similarly, a pair of photons does not disappear and still carries momentum.

Photon pairs without an electromagnetic field escape from the confined environment, resulting in the formation of expelled energy.

At this moment, Gu Cheng is designing and constructing the theoretical model of the "light guide engine", and its confined environment is asymmetrical, like a cone.

In this way, the photon pair is also asymmetrically discharged, so the momentum loss it carries is inconsistent.

In other words, thrust is generated.

It is impossible to generate thrust without exhausting energy, and in a closed resonance environment, when microwaves or photons are used as fuel, thrust will be provided but there is no visible discharge, so the nozzle of the "light guide engine" will not see the dazzling tongue of fire that is now sprayed from the tail of various jet planes or rockets.

Invisible to the naked eye does not mean that it does not exist, and it can be observed with special instruments and equipment.

A "light guide engine" with these properties is mounted on a vehicle that can fly both in the Earth's atmosphere and in outer space.

Obviously, this is the engine that Gu Cheng built for the aerospace vehicle.

The real aerospace vehicle was born, and the proud SpaceX company in North America, Elon Musk's recyclable rocket technology became obsolete technology in the blink of an eye.

The third-generation energy core, Gu Cheng also called it "light core", how to call it is secondary.

Human beings' obsession with controlled nuclear fusion is the huge energy it contains, and the light core has advantages over controlled nuclear fusion, which the latter does not have.

The light core eliminates the need to produce energy, and energy obtained through controlled nuclear fusion requires a nuclear reaction in the reactor core reactor to release energy, which is extremely dangerous.

The light core can directly collect the ubiquitous light waves in the universe with high efficiency, and the sun releases a large number of photons or light quanta.

In other words, if the energy consumption of a flying machine is supported by the light core, it is equivalent to the "superman" of the "DC Universe" basking in the sun.

In a sense, it is as inexhaustible as vacuum zero, because the cosmic space is full of ubiquitous light, even in the dark night when you can't see your fingers, the dark world at the edge of the solar system is also filled with a large amount of invisible light.

Even if it is scarce, it is incomparably huge relative to human needs.

However, light is also very dangerous, and whether it causes harm to the human body depends on the wavelength, frequency, energy density, irradiation duration, irradiation location and other factors of the photon.

Zhou Huang, who was beside him, silently watched Gu Cheng build theoretical models one by one.

When he saw that the data presented on the screen was doing a simulation of Thomas Young's double-slit interference experiment, Zhou Huang inexplicably felt that the boss was simply the regeneration of Thomas Young, no, a more perverted existence than Thomas.

Don't ask why, Xiao Zhou is kneeling and watching now.

Gu Cheng naturally considered the problem of "light leakage" caused by damage to the light core containing a large amount of energy, and a large number of photons would be severely burned and even ionized when they hit the human body with high energy density in the process of escaping at the speed of light.

If left unaddressed, the potential hidden danger of the light core is as dangerous as the reactor chamber of a thermonuclear fusion reactor.

Zhou Huang looked at the light core model on the sub-screen, and couldn't help but say, "Boss, how to solve the potential hidden danger of 'light leakage'?" If I'm not mistaken, the peak energy enrichment of a light core in a standard design is equivalent to 10 Saturn 5 rockets. ”

The diameter of the light core is only an incredible 1.58 meters, and the height of a "Saturn 5" rocket is more than 100 meters!

"It's not as difficult as you imagined, this is not too simple, in fact, Brother Ai has already helped us find a solution." Gu Cheng said in a comfortable tone, took a cup of cold drink and took two sips, and put it aside to continue building.

Zhou Huang: "Albert Einstein? ”

Gu Cheng nodded: "Yes, using Einstein's principle of the photoelectric effect can put a protective shell on the core of light and solve the hidden danger of 'light leakage'." ”

After a while, Gu Cheng was concentrating on two things, staring at the screen to build a mathematical model while analyzing: "The photoelectric effect can only occur between photons and bound electrons, but not between free electrons, if it can be, it will be the Compton effect." ”

"In the photoelectric effect, the photon transfers all its energy to the electron, and the photon itself disappears, which can also be said to be absorbed, but the energy will not disappear out of thin air, so after the photon disappears, all the energy is transferred to the electron, and I have a device to release these energies in the form of an electromagnetic pulse, so that we can avoid the light core containing high enrichment of majestic energy even if it is accidentally damaged, there is no need to worry about harming the human body."

However, the electromagnetic pulse has a huge damage to electronic equipment, and the entire set of machinery and equipment that carries the core of light is definitely scrapped, but other equipment around it can be protected from the damage of the electromagnetic pulse as long as the three defenses are done well.

Gu Cheng said lightly: "It's very simple to solve the problem of 'light leakage', isn't it?" ”

Zhou Huang: "......"

Is it easy?

Since coming to Tianqing Industry, Zhou Huang, who originally regarded himself as a genius, no longer dared to say that he was a genius.

Xiao Zhou firmly believes that the theoretical model of the light core and light guide engine that Gu Cheng is building now is enough for physicists in the world to study for ten or eight years.

Zhou Huang was hit with doubts about his life, and he couldn't help but scold in a low voice: "It's too angry..."

In the following days, Gu Cheng also led the electromagnetic weapon project, plus the construction of a simulated light core and a light guide engine, the complexity of which even if the data is placed in front of some professional scientists, it takes a lot of effort to fully understand its principle, first of all, you must understand quantum mechanics, as long as the "h" in the formula indicates that it is related to quantum mechanics.

"h" is Planck's constant.

Tianqing Technology Group recently released a large number of advertisements for recruiting technical talents related to aviation development, and the news reached the military.

Others may not let the military have too much psychological fluctuations, but Gu Cheng wants to engage in aero engines, and the military's expectations have skyrocketed.

Because as long as Gu Cheng says that he has any technology, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself, and he has not overturned so far, of course there is reason to look forward to it.

Hangfa is a hard bone, and the military feels that Gu Cheng has stumbled, and it is really very likely to bring surprises.

Some people are happy and some people must be worried, and the recruitment news of Tianqing Technology Group has also spread abroad, making the two most famous military and civilian aircraft engine manufacturers in North America, "General Motors" and "Pratt & Whitney", nervous.

Why did this damn bastard suddenly reach into the field of aerospace?
