Chapter 36 Express delivery

There are two ways to detain and store antimatter particles.

The first is to build a miniature particle accelerator that allows antimatter particles to rotate along a circular pipe, and at the same time uses a magnetic field to trap them in a vacuum, so that they do not collide with the device and produce an annihilation effect.

The particle accelerator built according to this idea was named the "Penning Trap".

However, antihydrogen atoms have only negatively charged protons and positively charged electrons, which are neutral and cannot continue to advance in the Penning trap.

The second way to trap antimatter particles is the Feel trap, which is to create a space where the magnetic field will increase in any direction, and trap the particles in the center of the space, like glass beads at the bottom of a bowl, rolling around, but never escaping the trap.

Leon, who released a steady-state strong magnetic field, easily destroyed the shell of the photon torpedo, stripped the warhead as a whole, and carefully took over the role of the projectile engine, creating magnetic holes to firmly stabilize the antimatter container.

The whole process happened so quickly that even before the photon torpedo control system could react, Leon had already gathered a full 58 containers of antimatter.

The dark blue antimatter filled the inside of the cylindrical crystal, trembling wildly, and Leon just snapped his fingers indifferently and shattered all the containers.

Breaking free from the constraints of the container, the dark blue antimatter did not disappear, but seemed to be kneaded and integrated by an invisible and substantial hand, woven layer by layer, twisted into a fine filament, and then kneaded into a ball.

This invisible and qualitative big hand is the Feiyo trap created by Li Ang with the help of strong magnetic places.

Behind Leon, the wreckage of a photon torpedo floated, and he slowly converged the steady-state strong magnetic field, confined the magnetic force to his right arm.

Clusters of antimatter the size of ping-pong balls hovered at his fingertips, and he examined the astonishing creation with interest, as if he were looking at an extremely rare and exquisite work of art.

Far away, there was a dead silence in the bridge of the Zetari starship, and all the Zetari soldiers watched in disbelief.

"He.... He detained antimatter empty-handed? ”

“..... Is this still an individual life? ”

"Oh God.... Forgive me my sins...."

If the Zetarians had a respiratory system like that of humans, a slight cry could have been heard in the bridge by now.

Unfortunately, the weepings of these interstellar marauders did not elicit sympathy from Leon - the moment the Zetarians gave up peaceful communication, the end was already sealed.

Leon smiled slightly, and did not rush to throw the antimatter ball, but took a step without hurrying.

After analyzing the photon torpedo, he mastered two new technologies.

One is the vacuum zero-point absorption technology.

At the level of theoretical physics, the vacuum is not "empty", and the vacuum in theories such as the theory of relativity is only an approximate wakefulness when Planck's constant tends to 0.

In the vast majority of cases, the vacuum is a fluctuating ocean of negative electrons, with pairs of positive and negative elementary particles created when the ocean of energy reaches its peak and annihilated when it falls into a trough.

In short, a system consisting of positrons and negative electrons is a vacuum.

According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, it is not possible to know the position and momentum of a particle at the same time with a high degree of accuracy, so the particle is still in a state of vibration even at absolute zero.

Otherwise, if the particle is absolutely stagnant, then its momentum and position can be accurately measured at the same time – which is contrary to the uncertainty principle.

The energy that a particle maintains to vibrate at absolute zero is the zero point energy, which is essentially quantum fluctuations.

If the sea surface is compared to time and space, matter is waves, and energy is waves, then the sea surface with calm wind and waves and an endless mirror-like surface is a vacuum.

Humans used to float on the surface of the sea, thinking that the vacuum was "empty", but ignoring the surface of the sea.

The quantum fluctuations below the Dirac Sea can be "loaned" to vacuum zero-point energy, which requires the assistance of complex and confidential instruments, and the amount of energy it draws is on the upper line.

However, with the help of the Time Gem, Li Ang, who has a temporary four-dimensional vision, happens to be able to squeeze through the four-dimensional level, like squeezing a lemon, brutally plundering the zero point energy of the vacuum.

The vacuum energy obtained by the "white prostitute" is so huge that within one breath, Li Ang's Jindan realm qi sea is filled with abundant energy, and what blocks him is no longer the barrenness of the aura, but the tenacity of the body.

At the beginning, Dormammu used the law gap between the two universes to obtain energy through the electron channel, and the vacuum zero energy absorbed by Leon was far superior to the former in terms of efficiency.

"Heh, such a cheap and efficient way to absorb energy, once you master it, you really can't stop it."

Leon shook his head and chuckled, taking another step.

This time, he used another technology on the photon torpedo - the sub-light curvature engine.

The universe is not absolutely flat, but there is curvature, like a large arc-shaped plastic wrap.

This layer of plastic wrap has a curvature, and in the area with a flatter curvature, its curvature is smaller, and in the area with a larger arc, the curvature is larger.

Just like a ship sailing on a horizontal river (the curvature is zero), if there is a waterfall in front of it (the curvature of the waterfall is infinite), the boat will be carried by the rushing water behind and speed up.

Taking theoretical physicist Mikiel Akuberi and the Akuberi model proposed in 1994 as samples, Leon used Einstein's equations and general relativity as a sample.

Through the huge energy that can be given by the vacuum zero point, the space is forcibly distorted, and a part of the space behind is "ironed" and stretched, reducing its curvature.

The space in front of him shrinks and the curvature becomes larger, so that the space that produces the folds will wrap him in a "curvature bubble".

Leon was dragged forward by the ripples of space, like a surfer riding a wave, and the whole process did not violate the law of the fastest speed of light.

To put it simply, it is to change the curvature of the front and rear spaces as a power source for movement.

In just one step, he crossed the distance of 2 light-seconds and reached the exterior of the Zetari command bridge.

The tower-shaped pitch-black mothership looks extremely magnificent in the cold vacuum, and even Leon has to admit that these aliens have a good aesthetic.

"Knock, knock, knock."

He held the antimatter sphere in one hand and tapped the one-sided floor-to-ceiling window on the front of the bridge with the other.

The mothership AI intimately simulated Leang's voice in a vacuum and played it on the bridge.

"Hello, anyone?"

There was no squeak in the bridge, and all the Zetarians seemed to be fixed in place, and they did not dare to come out.

"If there's no one, I'll come in."

Li Ang said gently, and pressed his palm lightly against the glass.

The transparent crystal, forged from a special material and strong enough to withstand the blows of a light ion cannon, melted into a humanoid cavity like cheese cut by a hot knife under Leon's palm.

The difference in air pressure caused the air in the bridge to flow quickly along the void, but as Leon stepped through the cavity, the effect of air extraction immediately stopped—Leon casually stuck to the glass.

"Hello."

He glanced at the stunned Zetari and raised the antimatter orb in his hand, "Here's a special delivery, which of you can sign for it?" ”
