Chapter 63: "The Explorer" (1st Recommendation Vote)
"What the hell is wrong, the fission reactor ......has exploded several times in a row," Fernando didn't pay any attention to Lucian's reminder, as long as there were no other legendary pinnacles or third-order to do anything, even if he didn't have time to react, just the triggering and passive magic effects on his body could ensure that he survived the fission pile explosion and was not affected by the curse.
His hair seemed to be blown by the wind, unusually messy, and the red magic robe on his body was also full of wrinkles, looking like he had just experienced a catastrophe, but he didn't realize it, all his attention was focused on the possible problems of the fission reactor, and his tone was slightly irritable and with strong doubts, according to his research in the field of fission and the reverse cracking of the legendary magic of "atomic fission", there should be no problems, such as the fission reaction that occurred when the runaway explosion occurred!
"How many times?" Lucien took a toothache, daring to know that this was not the second fission reactor to explode out of control, but the third, fourth, or even fifth or sixth, no wonder he could run into it by a "small probability" coincidence - because it was not a "small probability" at all.
It was only at this time that Lucien really understood that the teacher rarely took himself and other students to do magic experiments before, at most it was a relatively simple kind such as blackbody radiation, and it turned out that it was such a dangerous thing to follow him to conduct magic experiments! Not being a legend means that there will be "no bones left" at any time.
Fernando frowned and said: "A few times is not the point, the point is what to do, this has no contradiction with the spell model and fission principle of 'atomic fission'." ”
Lucien thought for a moment and said, "'Atomic fission' is an uncontrollable range-killing magic, and reactors need to be gentle and controllable. Perhaps that's the problem. ”
"Am I so stupid to directly copy the 'Atomic Fission' spell model and arrange it?" Fernando said in a bad mood, "You have seen our reactor model and detailed layout yourself, and you should know that we have added a lot of magic arrays that are convenient for energy utilization and control. ”
"But that doesn't mean really controllable and gentle, and I think that to solve this problem, we have to look more deeply into the process of fission reactions, understand the role played by particles such as neutrons, and figure out the different reactions that they can cause under different conditions. Lucien has also thought about the problem of fission reactors getting out of control, and initially suspects that the current research is too simplistic and crude, and the current reactor design mainly relies on "reverse cracking". The difference between slow and fast neutrons has not been discovered. It is even less clear that they have different effects in different fission reactions.
Fernando never scoffed at real advice, but he never threw himself in the towel: "Haven't I had a problem with this? But it will take a long time to redo the magic experiment of neutrons bombarding different elements under different conditions, eh." Hathaway and I are already working on it. ”
Neutrons cannot be accelerated by electromagnetic fields. So the bombardment experiment is much more complicated.
"I'm also trying to do experiments on that. Lucien smiled. "By completing research on a small nuclear fission device as soon as possible, our artificial planet will be more effective and will not be able to catch up with the Church and other enemies, even if they imitate it. ”
The principles of orbital operation and electromagnetic wave reception and forwarding of electromagnetic waves on the artificial planet itself are not complicated. It belongs to the category of imitation, but if there is no in-depth study of the fission process, then the imitation of enemies such as the church will only have the explosion accidents that the teacher often encounters during this time, and it cannot be fundamentally ruled out - if they don't understand which magic pattern plays what role, naturally they will not be able to combine or discard it when transforming into the corresponding magic symbol, and any one of these many links that goes wrong may lead to serious accidents.
This is the difference between the "most frontier realm of arcane" and the "relative frontier realm", after all, the "launch" process of this world realm is too simple and crude.
Fernando bowed slightly: "As long as a stable fission reactor can be completed, it will be miniaturized sooner or later." ”
In this magical world, many technical problems that cannot be completed on the earth are no longer a problem, such as the fission reactor built by Fernando and Hathaway directly uses the magic array to convert the released energy into electricity, etc., which does not occupy excess volume at all, of course, the resulting miniaturization cost will be very high, except for the council itself to pay for the installation on the artificial planet, it is estimated that only archmages and legendary magicians have the ability to use it.
And members of the Supreme Council were divided on the promotion of miniaturized fission devices because of the safety hazards it could bring, which could cause a lot of casualties and pollution that would take a long time to eradicate.
Seeing that the teacher was full of confidence, Lucien smiled: "Fission reactors and miniaturization are only the first step in our accumulation of experience, and controlled nuclear fusion is our real goal, at that time, we can all call ourselves 'Sun King'." ”
"Controlled nuclear fusion ......" Fernando repeated with some yearning but frowning, the difficulty of this problem is not an order of magnitude with a fission reactor, himself, Douglas, Hathaway and others have no clue at present, and Lucian can't make any useful suggestions, "Let's explore the fission reactor first......"
Speaking of this, he habitually mocked: "For all arcanists who have in-depth research in the microscopic realm, the main experiment at present is to bombard other particles with different particles, and find the group that may contain mysteries from countless experimental data, like more alchemists who work repetitively than arcanists." ”
"It's not just the arcanists who have studied deeply, the vast majority of magicians know that the particle bombardment experiment in the microscopic realm is the most likely to find new discoveries. Lucien snorted, "They are full of fear of the strange electronic properties, as if they contain things that destroy the world, and they themselves know little about quantum mechanics, so they can't make theoretical and new experimental contributions, so they can only take this path that is absolutely not wrong." ”
As on Earth, particle bombardment and collision experiments are the most basic and most likely places to discover mysteries in the microscopic realm, with the only difference being that the council's high-level magicians can set up the corresponding experimental setup, and they don't have to wait in line to use it like researchers on Earth to verify their conjectures or derivations from the collision data.
Of course, if you reach the stage of the Large Hadron Collider, the scene may become more and more similar, such as the current mid-level magician, who can only expect a few paths to conduct similar magic experiments.
One is that he is a student or friend of a high-level magician, the second is that he works in places such as the Atomic Research Institute, and the third is that he is rich enough to ask a high-level magician to help arrange it.
The fourth is to apply to the Magic Research Committee, enter the queue sequence, and wait for free access to the Alinge Magic Tower's open large laboratory - this was specifically proposed by Lucien at the meeting of the Supreme Council, so that middle and low-level magicians can also do the expected research without spending money.
Fernando's bright red eyes glared: "It's not all the 'observer effect' you proposed that makes them scared and panicked. ”
Lucien snorted and changed the subject: "Teacher, didn't you do any research on field theory today? Mr. Brooke hasn't come yet?"
"Research, what is this for! My mind is full of infinity, infinity, infinity, and I don't understand the point of research!" Lucien's words were just right, and Fernando burst out like an alchemical dynamite that had been ignited.
Lucien wanted to comfort the teacher that every person who studies field theory has millions of infinity hidden in the room, which is something that cannot be avoided by in-depth research in the micro field.
For example, the Dirac equation (i.e., the relativistic quantum mechanical equation — As one of the founders of quantum field theory, the top ten or even the top five great physicists in Lucian's mind are precisely because they have different views on infinity, believing that the emergence of infinity itself should have its inevitable causes and deep meanings, and the previous classical theories may be wrong, so he opposes the use of mathematical methods to reorganize and deal with it, which led him to gradually leave the forefront (cognitive world shattering and solidification?).
After roaring for a while, Fernando also calmed down: "Brooke will come a little later, but even if infinity occurs in the calculation of a higher approximation, the field theory we have established itself does preliminarily describe the interaction of charged particles, that is, the nature of the electromagnetic force......"
He was still quite satisfied with the joint research of himself, Brooke, and Lucian, except for the damn infinity.
Starting from the field theory of research, Fernando and Brooke believe that the electromagnetic force is realized by the exchange of photons by charged particles, and there are many different processes, but this photon is different from the photons studied in daily life, cannot be observed, and belongs to the mathematical conclusion, and the two call it a virtual photon.
After discussing the problem of quantum field theory for a while, Fernando suddenly said: "Stannis told me that the Dark Mountains are a little unsettled, and those shady fellows seem to have reacquainted with us after the Great War of Rentat, and have begun to weigh the problem of cooperation and confrontation with us. ”
"They're too sluggish, aren't they?" said Lucien, amusedly.
Fernando sneered: "Those guys are all races with long lives, our ten years may be ten days in their eyes, plus their interest in arcane is not as good as the church, it is inevitable that this situation will occur, you tell Natasha, pay attention to the situation in Rentart during this time, there may be a lot of dark creatures haunting." ”
"Good. Lucien nodded solemnly.
............
Inside the Dark Mountains, a young man with short silver-gray hair and golden eyes said majestically, "Nasdel, you sneak into Rentat and Alinge, and take a good look at the changes brought about by the Magic Council, which is the basis for our future decisions." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency. The werewolf in front of him gathered his fur and became a rugged man with the same silver gray hair. (To be continued......)
