Chapter 6: Unknown Interference!
Xiao Yi's voice,
Yang Meng was stunned for a moment,
He's lost both legs,
But then he reacted to something,
In the period of time before awakening,
That boiling cauldron already says it all.
"In that case......
When Yang Meng was about to give Xiao Yi something,
Xiao Yi's voice sounded again,
"Warning, the leg neutrino medium has been damaged beyond repair!"
"Radioactive material has leaked!"
"The leak is about 200 meters away from you!"
"Luckily, you don't need to worry about radiation contamination at the moment."
"Based on the current abundance of radioactive substances in the legs,
The danger distance is 6 meters. ”
Note!
If you go within 6 meters of your leg without any protection, you will cause fatal injury! ”
"Please avoid walking within 6 meters of your legs......"
Hearing this rigid and mechanical voice, Yang Meng couldn't laugh or cry:
"Xiao Yi, do you think I can still leave now?"
"Due to your physical condition, the warning is temporarily lifted!"
……
was disturbed by Xiao Yi like this,
Yang Meng's frustration because the previous information could not be accurately conveyed also eased a lot.
"Since I'm still alive, there's a way!"
"Xiao Yi, try to correct the coordinates and send a message again!"
"Understood!"
However, before Xiao Yi,
Perform the task process assigned by Yang Meng,
The information with higher privileges interrupted Xiao Yi's current task:
"Warning!"
"Leg sensors found
The micro-nuclear power battery pack is disturbed,
The fission reaction of the radioactive element is abnormal,
The radiation dose produced by micro-power batteries is rising"
"The range of lethal radiation is beginning to expand!"
"The range has expanded to ten meters!"
"Twelve meters!"
"Fifteen meters!"
……
Xiao Yi's voice kept ringing in Yang Meng's mind.
"Nuclear fission is abnormal!"
Hearing Xiao Yi's voice,
A look of disbelief appeared on Yang Meng's face,
To know the radioactive elements in the nuclear battery in his leg,
It's not his grandfather's time, those radioactive elements that can be used in nuclear power,
Instead, a new radioactive element was used to miniaturize the nuclear battery.
……
Although mankind after the construction of nuclear power plants,
We have been enjoying the vision of realizing the miniaturization of nuclear power in the future.
But no matter how experimental,
The rules of physics rigidly bind this beautiful idea within a certain range,
In the past, several radioactive elements that could be used in nuclear power had critical masses for chain reactions.
To put it simply,
Nuclear fuel must not be lower than a certain mass, otherwise the fission reaction will not be able to proceed normally.
It is precisely because of such limitations that
Humans want to use nuclear-powered mobile phones, nuclear-powered wireless Bluetooth headsets, nuclear-powered electric toothbrushes......
It's always been a distant thing.
The dawn of the breakthrough of micro nuclear power batteries is still related to the realization of controllable nuclear fusion.
in which the relationship,
Let's start with the process of hydrogen fusion.
In a fusion reaction, there are two types of hydrogen combustion processes,
One is proton chain (PP chain reaction)
One is the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen cycle (CNO reaction)
And the nuclear fusion technology used by humans,
It is a PP reaction chain with low temperature requirements,
In the PP reaction chain,
There are three branches, which in turn correspond to different fusion environments,
Generally speaking, hydrogen fusion to helium is the most normal reaction.
But in the actual fusion process,
Because the energy level of hydrogen-helium fusion is too high,
Elements after helium, lithium, beryllium, boron are produced.
But because of the lack of energy,
In a very short period of time, these three elements underwent isotope fission and re-fusion.
Take lithium as an example,
Lithium can be fissioned into helium and can be fused again with hydrogen to become helium.
Like a weird child,
After a while, he cracked open, and he looked for hydrogen to turn back again,
After a while, it fused with hydrogen to form helium at the same time, and it appeared again.
In short, lithium is there,
Jumping sideways left and right in the process of cracking and combining,
This is part of the extremely complex reaction chain of hydrogen fusion PPII.
And in this section,
There will be a radioactive isotope of lithium,
And this isotope,
It has a very high degree of compatibility with the lithium battery technology commonly used by human beings.
Through the intervention of neutrinos, the radioactivity of lithium is slowed down,
realized a miniature nuclear power plant with excellent stability,
This power plant,
Essentially, it is closer to the lithium battery on human smart devices,
And because, the fission of lithium can only be carried out towards helium,
Therefore, even if this nuclear power unit leaks, it is less harmful.
Compared with a few grams of plutonium, which can theoretically poison all mankind,
Lithium radioisotopes, a lethal range of a few meters is not unacceptable.
However, this kind of battery still has a certain degree of harm,
Therefore, it is not used for civilian use, and can only be used in major fields such as aerospace and military industry.
……
But now Xiao Yi actually told him,
There is an anomaly in the fission of lithium,
You know,
Since mankind entered the era of nuclear fusion,
Some conceited nuclear physicists in mankind can already pat their chests and say:
"Humans already know enough about the first few elements of the periodic table!"
And this certainty as a result,
It was also written into Yang Meng's physics textbook in middle school.
But now,
A new situation seems to have emerged.
An unknown energy interferes with the normal process of nuclear fission.
