Chapter 222: The merit is in the present generation, and the benefit is in the future
Hearing Xu Chuan's words, the Tong Kong in Qin Anguo's eyes shrank in a circle, and his breathing became two points shorter.
Fifty to eighty percent efficiency, it's horrible.
According to his current understanding, countries around the world use nuclear waste to generate electricity, and the highest efficiency is less than 5 percent.
Fifty percent, which is a tenfold increase in efficiency.
If it can be realized, then the nuclear power plant will be able to be promoted on a large scale, and how to deal with the nuclear waste generated will no longer be a problem.
"Can you really achieve such conversion efficiency?" For a long time, Qin Anguo asked with some hope.
Xu Chuan nodded affirmatively and said, "That's for sure, we didn't find a suitable method before, but now I have finished the relevant theories and papers." ”
On the side, the old man's breathing was also slightly heavy, as if he was digesting this information, and only after half a sound did he ask, "Can you do it?" ”
He didn't know much about the technical details associated with the reuse of nuclear waste for power generation.
But he is well aware that what to do with nuclear waste from nuclear power plants has always been an 'epic' problem.
If there is no breakthrough in preservation technology, and it is still necessary to preserve 100,000 years as it is now, I am afraid that all the revenue of the nuclear power plant will not be enough to save nuclear waste for these 100,000 years.
What is even more dangerous is that the generation of electricity from nuclear power plants is the benefit of the present generation, but the preservation of nuclear waste is the business of future generations for 100,000 years.
If there is a generation of children and grandchildren who are left alone, or if there is no money to manage it, then what will happen to this nuclear waste?
Do you let it leak out and pollute your own living environment?
If this problem can be solved, it will really be a merit for the present generation, for the benefit of future generations, and for the benefit of future generations.
Xu Chuan nodded: "You can give it a try, but I need to conduct experiments to improve the theory, and I also need help." ”
"How can you help you?" The old man asked.
"Establish an institute with talents in the corresponding field, research funding, and relevant government support." Xu Chuan said.
The old man nodded: "These are all right. ”
......
In the quaint small building, Xu Chuan chatted with the old man for a long time.
From the reuse of nuclear waste to the ultimate goal of controlled nuclear fusion......
From the development of education in China, to the reform of scientific research funding and intellectual property rights.....
The two talked a lot.
But except for some of his own opinions on science and technology, as well as some judgments on the future form of development, Xu Chuan did not talk much about other things.
Institutional change or something, in fact, it is not his turn to intervene.
He wasn't very interested in anything other than academics.
What's more, every country has a different culture and history, and it is not necessarily fragrant that something from abroad is necessarily fragrant.
Sometimes many things are introduced into the country, but they will not adapt to the soil and water, blindly study, and lose their advantages without thinking.
Compared with doing these 'layman' jobs, Xu Chuan wants to go farther away to have a look.
The work that has not been done, the areas that have come to an end......
He wanted to try it, to break through, to see the unknown landscape.
As for the rest, he didn't really care.
......
After following the guards out of the small building, Xu Chuan looked up at the clear blue sky, and a few white clouds were scattered and inlaid with them.
From now on, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for the birds to fly!
On the street, a black domestic red flag stayed there, and after bringing Xu Chuan over, the guard saluted and turned to leave.
On the side of the Hongqi vehicle, a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and very inconspicuous appearance greeted him.
"Professor Xu, hello, my name is Zheng Hai, I am the driver of the Organization Department, if you need to travel by car, just tell me."
After seeing Xu Chuan, the middle-aged man standing next to the car quickly walked over and introduced himself.
Xu Chuan nodded, and looked the middle-aged man named Zheng Hai up and down.
Although he introduced himself as a driver, and his appearance seemed to belong to the kind of person who couldn't find anyone in the crowd, the upright posture of the station and the spirit when he introduced himself told him where this person came from.
However, Xu Chuan didn't care, shook his hand with a smile and said, "Hello, Brother Zheng." ”
Hearing the title of Brother Zheng, Zheng Hai hurriedly excused himself and said: "Professor Xu can call me Xiao Zheng Xiaohai or by name, I can't afford the title of Brother Zheng." ”
Xu Chuan smiled, didn't care about these details, and said, "Then I will trouble you a lot in the future." ”
Zheng Hai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is my business, there is no trouble or trouble." Are you going to travel now? ”
Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Please send me to Mizuki University." ”
Although I have talked with him today and identified some general things, he still has a lot of things to do.
The first project to be launched was the 'Mechanism for Coal β Radiant Energy Aggregation and Conversion of Electricity', and he needed to pull in a group of people to help.
However, there are not many schools in China that have nuclear science and technology, as well as nuclear industry faculties.
There must be two schools in Shuimu Peking University, in addition to China University of Science and Technology, South China University, Harbin Institute of Technology, East University of Technology, and Jiaotong University.
On the other hand, although NTU has a physics department and a research and talent training in the direction of nuclear physics, it is not on a large scale.
NTU specializes in theoretical physics, condensed matter physics, acoustics, optics, atomic and molecular physics, and particle physics..... There is nothing studied in the field of nuclear physics.
Otherwise, he doesn't need to find any more people, just go back to NTU and pull up a team.
He is still willing to take care of his alma mater, but unfortunately his alma mater can't support what he needs.
Of course, the team members will also help deal with this kind of thing.
However, ordinary scientific researchers can help solve it, but a leader who leads the entire project, Xu Chuan wants to find it himself, and he has the right person in mind.
......
Zheng Hai drove Xu Chuan all the way to Mizuki University.
"It's coming soon, Professor Xu, do you need me to take you in?" On the road, Zheng Hai looked ahead and asked Xu Chuan behind the car.
Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Well, let's go in, and then just find a place to put me down." ”
"Okay." Zheng Hai nodded and revised the route forward.
As one of the two most famous universities in China, Mizuki University has a small number of tourists who want to visit this dream college every day.
However, it is not possible for visitors to enter at all times.
Mizuki University is generally open to the public only on weekends, public holidays, winter and summer vacations, and is not open to the public at other times.
This is normal, as a top university, Mizuki has countless students and precious scientific research facilities.
Moreover, the school is a school after all, and it is a place for students to study, and there are too many foreign tourists, which is easy to disturb the normal learning of students.
Today is not a Saturday or Sunday, and Mizuki is not open to the public.
But for Xu Chuan, this is not a problem, Zheng Hai can handle this, and he is too lazy to call others by himself.
If you can go in directly, why stand at the school gate and wait for half a day?
.....
All the way to the Department of Engineering and Physics, Xu Chuan looked up at the huge Engineering Teaching Building and walked inside.
The Department of Engineering and Physics of Mizuki University, the full name of the Department of Engineering Physics of Mizuki University, mainly studies nuclear technology, and has majors such as Engineering Physics, Engineering Energy Physics Experiment, Engineering Oriented Physics, Nuclear Engineering and Nuclear Technology, and Directional Nuclear Engineering.
It was established very early, in 1956, it was officially established, and the success of China's first atom 'Miss Qiu' is also inseparable from the support of the talents of the Department of Engineering and Physics of Shuimu University.
Xu Chuan appeared under the teaching building and did not attract the attention of others.
The students here went with their books in their hands, and they all regarded him as a student.
After all, judging from his appearance and age, there is no difference between him and undergraduates.
"Classmate, excuse me, where is Professor Peng Hongxi's office?" In the teaching building, Xu Chuan casually pulled a student and asked.
"Professor Peng Hongxi?" Hearing this name, the boy who was pulled to inquire about the news was obviously stunned, and after thinking about it, he continued: "Academician Peng has retired and is not here, if you want to find him, you have to go to the faculty and staff family hospital." ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment, Professor Peng retired? He really didn't know about it.
He vaguely remembered that this man was still in office when he was in his eighties?
But if you count his age, it's normal to retire, maybe he was invited out again after retirement.
The boy who was pulled to inquire about the news carried his schoolbag, and then reminded: "In addition, Academician Peng generally does not see outsiders, if you have any questions and want to ask, it is best to find someone else or send him an email to make an appointment first." ”
Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Thank you." ”
The boy asked curiously, "Classmate, are you a student in the Department of Engineering Physics?" ”
Xu Chuan shook his head and said, "No." ”
"That's it, I mean, I've never seen you." The boy muttered, and then looked at Xu Chuan: "Then you are the opposite?" ”
Xu Chuan was slightly stunned for a moment, then reacted to where the other side was referring to, and suddenly smiled: "It's not." ”
"Then what are you looking for Academician Peng?" The boy frowned, and looked up and down again, as if he was speculating on something.
Before Xu Chuan could answer, a half-questioning and half-surprised inquiry came from his ears.
"Are you, Professor Xu Chuanxu?"
Xu Chuan looked up and saw a middle-aged man standing aside, with surprise and confusion on his face, as if he didn't quite believe that he would appear here.
After looking at the middle-aged man and confirming that he didn't know each other, Xu Chuan opened his mouth and asked, "I am, may I ask who you are?" ”
Hearing his affirmative answer, the middle-aged man walked over quickly in three steps and two steps, stretched out his hands enthusiastically, and brought a bright smile on his face.
"Hello Professor Xu, my name is Qiu Hongyi, and I am a professor in the Department of Mathematics at Mizuki University. Your presentations at the International Mathematical Congress are two of the most wonderful I have ever seen. ”
Qiu Hongyi warmly held Xu Chuan's hands, shook them vigorously, and patted his ass by the way: "Professor Xu, you don't come to say hello, we haven't arranged to greet you." ”
Xu Chuan smiled: "It's too polite, there's no need to greet anything, I'm just coming over for a stroll, and by the way, I'll find Professor Peng Hongxi." ”
"Academician Peng, I don't know where he is now, but I'll find someone to help you ask." Qiu Hongyi said, took out his mobile phone and wanted to call someone.
On the other side, the student who was reminded by Professor Qiu Hongyi and was still standing there and being asked by Xu Chuan looked at Xu Chuan in disbelief, and was stunned there with his mouth open.
Xu Chuan? International Mathematical Congress?
The Kawajin who won the Fields Medal?
it!
What was I thinking just now? I almost thought that Kawajin was a walking 500,000?
I'm damned!
Hearing the words of looking for someone, the boy suddenly came to his senses and said quickly: "Professor Qiu, Professor Xu, Academician Peng should be at the Advanced Radiation Source Application Laboratory now, how about I take you there?" ”
"Then I'm bothering you." Qiu Hongyi put down his phone with a smile and said.
It was Xu Chuan, who looked at the student with a smile.
Before, he also said that Peng Hongxi came to the faculty college, which will become an advanced radiation source application laboratory.
It's kind of funny, worried that he's the bad guy?
"No trouble, no trouble." The boy carried his schoolbag and took the lead in a quick walk towards the advanced radiation source and application laboratory.
The distance is not very far, and the three of them arrived in a few minutes.
The boy who led the way seemed to be familiar with this place, and took Xu Chuan and Qiu Hongyi to find Academician Peng Hongxi's office with three times and five divided by two.
Knock on them, and soon there was a sound inside.
"What's the matter? Chang Kai. ”
Peng Hongxi looked at the student who walked in and asked, this student he knew, a student of his student's student.
"Professor, you're being looked for." Chang Kai, who led the way, said respectfully and got out of the way.
Behind him, Qiu Hongyi opened his mouth and introduced: "Academician Peng, this is Professor Xu Chuanxu, who won the Fields Medal at the International Congress of Mathematicians not long ago, and he came to you today. ”
Xu Chuan looked at the old man at the door, stepped forward with a smile, and said hello: "Academician Peng, hello, I'm sorry to be uninvited." ”
Academician Peng Hongxi, nuclear physicist, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
He participated in the development and establishment of China's first neutron time-of-flight spectrometer on an atomic reactor; He has participated in and led many topics in near-zone physical testing in nuclear weapons testing, and has pioneered and developed particle beam inertial confinement fusion research in China.
He is a real veteran in the field of nuclear physics and has considerable influence. Although he is now almost eighty years old, he is not fully retired and is still active at Mizuki University.
He is the person Xu Chuan selected from many nuclear physicists in China.
I came to invite him out of the mountain in person.
Seeing Xu Chuan, Peng Hongxi's eyes lit up, shook hands with Xu Chuan with a smile, and said: "I have admired the name for a long time, Professor Xu, I often hear other people talk about you, there is a top young mathematician in our country, and he also won the Fields Medal. ”
"Come on, come on, come in and sit."
As he spoke, he glanced at Chang Kai on the side and said, "Xiao Chang, go make some tea." ”
Chang Kai served the tea, and then silently withdrew, although he really wanted to stay and listen to what the elders would say, but there was still a sense of proportion.
In the living room, the three of them chatted for a while, and Xu Chuan cut to the chase after seeing that it was almost there: "Academician Peng, I came to disturb you this time, I want to ask you for help." ”
Hearing this, Peng Hongxi nodded and said, "Please say, as long as I can help, I will do my best." ”
Although it was the first time they met, he had a good feeling about the young genius in front of him.
Xu Chuan glanced at Qiu Hongyi, who was sitting on the side, thought about it and said, "Professor Qiu, how about I go to find you later?" ”
Qiu Hongyi was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Then I won't bother you first." ”
