Chapter 378: This Can't Be Done!
The Qixia controlled fusion team, which paid close attention to the first operation experiment of the dawn fusion device, whether it was the Jinling municipal government or other nuclear fusion projects in China, kept a close eye on this operation experiment.
After all, some of the things that happened before are basically known to domestic practitioners in the field of nuclear fusion.
Including Xu Chuan's words at the acceptance celebration banquet, Chen Mingji's rhythm and targeting in the interview after the EAST450-second high-density plasma magnetic confinement operation.
It is no secret that these two men have conflicts, almost to the point of public confrontation, in the field of nuclear fusion.
One is the first person in the domestic scientific community, the winner of the double academician + Nofi double award, and the other is a leading figure in the field of nuclear fusion in China, and neither side is weak.
Especially in the field of nuclear fusion, Chen Mingji's influence is much greater than that of Professor Xu.
On Luyang Science Island, Chen Mingji is dealing with the official business at hand.
Now that EAST450 seconds of running has passed, the natural next step is to experiment with longer running times.
According to the plan, the next launch of EAST will be in May next year, with a running time of at least 1,000 seconds.
1,000 seconds, 16 minutes, this will once again set a new record for EAST!
When the time comes, how can you compete with him with the second-hand equipment you bought?
Just as he was thinking, the door of the office was slammed open, and the assistant rushed in in a panic.
"What's the matter, so anxious?" Frowning and putting down the signature pen in his hand, Chen Mingji glanced at him and said with some displeasure: "Don't even knock on the door." ”
didn't have time to explain why he didn't knock on the door, and didn't even have time to catch his breath, assistant Mo Hongyun hurriedly opened his mouth to report the situation: "Academician Chen, the results of the dawn experiment over there of Academician Xu are out!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Mingji asked with interest: "Tell me, what are the results of his experiment?" How many seconds did it take? ”
In his opinion, it would be very good for the other party to surpass the previous record of Goryeo, and it was almost impossible for the other party to rise to the minute level.
Hearing this, a bitter smile appeared on Mo Hongyun's face.
"It's not seconds, it's forty-five minutes."
“???”
Chen Mingji had a question mark on his face when he heard this: "Forty-five minutes? Are you sure it's forty-five minutes? And not forty-five seconds? ”
Assistant Mo Hongyun nodded, and said in a tone of disbelief: "I saw this news in the latest report of the Nuclear Industry Times, and they have achieved a high-density plasma magnetic confinement run time of forty-five minutes."
Hearing this, Chen Mingji quickly took out his mobile phone and searched for it.
When he was sure that the time of forty-five minutes was true, he almost didn't mention it in one breath and suffocated himself, staring at his phone in disbelief, the blood vessels in his neck were highlighted by the rising blood pressure, and his face was red like a monkey's ass.
"How is that possible!"
"How is this possible?"
"It's absolutely impossible!"
Achieving a tokamak-like high-density plasma magnetic confinement run time of 45 minutes is against the sky?
EAST has already attracted the world's attention in the field of nuclear fusion in 450 seconds, forty-five minutes! Is this what people can do?
With a running time of 45 minutes, it is no exaggeration to say that this achievement alone has left the world behind in the field of controlled nuclear fusion.
Even if EAST is expected to achieve more than 1,000 seconds next year, it will only be 16 minutes!
How is it possible to take someone else's second-hand equipment that has been retired and do it for forty-five minutes!
He didn't believe it!
On the other side, assistant Mo Hongyun smiled bitterly and said, "Why don't I go to Jinling to see the situation?" ”
Hearing the voice, Chen Mingji also came back to his senses.
Looking at the news on his phone, looking at the back of the person standing in front of the main console, he took a deep breath and said, "No need. ”
The "Nuclear Industry Times" and "Renren Daily" were the first to report the news, and it is impossible to think that this matter is fake.
Forty-five minutes, although it is difficult not to wonder if it is fake data, but the falsification is of no use to that person, but will cause disgust from the top.
So this matter can be said to be basically true.
It's just that what he can't figure out is how the other party did it.
That's forty-five minutes, not forty-five seconds!
Forty-five minutes, this record, far beyond the current magnetic confinement route.
Even in the case of EAST, the latest record is only 450 seconds, compared to one-sixth of the time.
Even if EAST can successfully run for more than 1,000 seconds next year, it will not be enough to see in the face of this achievement.
This record is truly amazing.
So much so that Chen Mingji really couldn't imagine how they did it.
On the other side, assistant Mo Hongyun asked in a low voice: "Academician Chen, what should we do next?" ”
Forty-five minutes of high-density plasma magnetic confinement running time, this data, he really can't think of how the EAST device can surpass it.
Even if you give them another year, or even two or three years, you won't necessarily be able to get there.
It's so rebellious!
Is Nobel laureate so terrifying?
It's not like no one has won the Nobel Prize in China before, but I've never seen such a murderous one!
Yes!
In Mo Hongyun's heart, Xu Chuan is no longer a genius and a demon, but a murderer!
From mathematics to physics, to materials and nuclear energy, whether it is nuclear fission or nuclear fusion, as long as it is the field and industry he intervenes in, it has undergone earth-shaking changes.
It's just too brutal.
It's like a scientist from an advanced alien civilization, or an all-powerful scholar who has traveled back in an unknown number of years, omniscient, omniscient, omnipotent.
Hearing this question, Chen Mingji's face was also a little ugly.
What should they do next?
He doesn't know.
EAST was brilliant, so brilliant that it set a running time of 450 seconds and seven and a half minutes, and at one point broke the world record for a controlled nuclear fusion device, whether it was a tokamak or a stellar simulator, the longest record was just over six minutes.
But in front of the long time of forty-five minutes, it is like a meteor crossing the sky trying to compete with the sun, it is too small.
In the office, the two were silent with each other.
I don't know how long it has been, Mo Hongyun suddenly raised his head, glanced at Chen Mingji, and said semi-tentatively: "Director, I have a way, maybe you can give it a try?" ”
Chen Mingji raised his head, looked at his assistant, and said, "What way?" Just say! ”
To be honest, he can't think of anything too good now.
Although he is still a leader in the field of controlled nuclear fusion in China, he controls the allocation of resources in the field of controlled nuclear fusion in China, and it can even be said that most of the scientific research funds for controlled nuclear fusion projects need to be signed by him before they can be allocated.
But that one is different.
The controllable nuclear fusion project in Qixia Mountain is not under his control, and the corresponding scientific research funds do not need to be approved by him.
In the end, he can't control the other party's head.
What works for others is useless for that person.
And more importantly, if he can't quickly find his place in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, I am afraid that his position as a leader will soon be lost.
So much so that the assistant now came up with an idea, and he couldn't wait to hear it.
Mo Hongyun took a deep breath and said, "First of all, what we can be sure of is that if we rely on that second-hand ASDEX device alone, we will definitely not be able to do this. ”
"After that Professor Xu bought it back, he must have modified it or something, including that he approached us before and wanted to test the mathematical model of plasma turbulence in his hand with the help of the EAST device."
"So I think that the fact that the ASDEX device can be reborn to achieve a 45-minute running time has something to do with what he modified and the mathematical model."
"I can't think of anything else that could have made such a big change in the ASDEX installation."
"And these two, if we can figure them out, maybe they can also be applied to our EAST device."
Mo Hongyun didn't finish speaking, but Chen Mingji already understood what he meant.
After all, in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, many things are universal.
What can be used by the Daybreak fusion device, the EAST device will definitely be able to be used as well, especially since both are derived from the tokamak device, but there are slight differences in some parts.
It's just that in terms of the relationship between the two, he can't pull down this old face.
On the other side, it seemed that he could see the hesitation and thoughts of his immediate boss, and the assistant Mo Hongyun took the initiative to speak: "Director, we are all for the development of the domestic controllable nuclear fusion cause, after all, one more route, one more choice, I believe Academician Xu will also understand." ”
PS: The second is to ask for a monthly pass
