Chapter 108: Self-Opened Road
"Mr. Tianzhao, will you continue to study the properties of Element Zero in the future?"
Wang Qi's question made Mi Tianzhao stop what he was doing. He raised his head www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion, a little puzzled: "Mr. Wang, this is a question...... What?"
Only then did Wang Qi realize that maybe he had asked something inappropriate. Element Zero is a highest-level academic achievement in its own right. To describe it in the most accustomed way of earthlings, it is a Nobel Prize-level achievement.
In the early days, the Nobel Prize in chemistry was largely a face-to-face process -- just to see if you could find a formula or reaction process that was just right. However, the discovery of elements is not a process of mere luck.
Because, the periodic table appeared as early as forty or fifty years before the establishment of the Nobel Prize.
As long as human beings are only not too far wrong in basic physics, Mendeleev's periodic table is a universal existence. All possible types of atoms in the universe [excluding exotic atoms] are within this one hundred and eighteen serial numbers. The chemical properties of every possible element are predicted, and there seem to be clues in the air that point to these new elements.
The only thing chemists at that time had to do was to follow the instructions left by Mendeleev, follow that little clue, and guess where this element might be enriched and how it could be refined according to the speculation on the periodic table about the chemical properties of the element.
And when one element is discovered, it is only a matter of time before other elements of the same or family of the same kind are found adjacent to it.
Strictly speaking, the chemists who followed Mendeleev never "discovered a new element", but "proved the existence of a known element and discovered the method of its elemental preparation".
In Wang Qi's impression, there are only three cases that have won the Nobel Prize for the discovery of a new element and the method of its preparation.
Henri Moissan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1906 for his discovery of the preparation of elemental fluorine.
Marie Curie was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the second time in 1911 for the discovery of the elements polonium and radium.
Edwin Madison Macmillan and Glenn Theodore Sieborg were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1951 for their discovery of transuranic elements.
After 1951, Glenn Theodore Sieborg and Edwin Madison Macmillan discovered concentrated transuranic elements one after another, and they together with the previous discoveries of a total of nine elements, and the number 102 of the periodic table's 94th road was covered by these two men. Later, Glenn Theodore Sieborg discovered one on his own.
However, the transuranic elements discovered later are not worth a Nobel Prize.
The reason - lack of originality.
After one element is discovered, it is only a matter of time before the remaining elements of the same type are discovered. All transuranic elements combined are worth only one Nobel Prize.
Later, according to Wang Qi's estimates, only a few "elements that generally do not exist in nature, but can be produced artificially" after No. 113, or the limit of the periodic table - the method of producing element No. 118 can hope to win the Nobel Prize.
However, the method of making element zero of Mi Tianzhao does not need to be thought of, it must be at the Nobel Prize level.
Element zero is not included in the periodic table. It was only after Rutherford, the "crocodile god" of the Burning Gold Valley, proposed the concept of "neutron", that some people made a conjecture. Before Mi Tianzhao, everyone could only say "this is very likely to exist", but no one predicted that this element would definitely exist.
Therefore, Mi Tianzhao's actual achievements include three aspects: "inferring and affirming the existence of element zero", "proving the existence" and "completing the preparation method", and the "originality" alone is actually higher than any Nobel Prize-level element discovery. And in addition, element zero is significant. It is free from the celestial sequence and is equivalent to the "peculiarity" of the celestial sequence. If the zero element is included in the celestial order table through the study of element zero, it will be a huge complement to the element theory of the Burning Gold Valley.
In addition, there is also the study of the properties of neutrons, which can also start with element zero.
Behind this Nobel Prize-level achievement, there are many achievements that are also not low.
It can be said that Wang Qi is asking this question, which is to explore the direction of a Nobel Prize-level achievement.
"Sorry if I can't mention it. Wang Qi shook his head: "It's me who is abrupt." ”
Mi Tianzhao shook his head: "Actually, this is not too secretive. I suppose that, as is customary, there will soon be a series of people in the Burning Gold Valley who will concentrate on Element Zero, and the main points of the research will be nothing more than a few - decay chain analysis, cathode ray tubes, bubble chambers, scanning tunneling into micromirrors...... Of course, it's inevitable to try to react with something. Although everyone knows that this thing will never change its physical properties with any known elements, this is the case with the Burning Gold Valley. I finally got a new element, and I definitely can't help but mix it with various reagents and try it. ”
Speaking of this, Mi Tianzhao had a little index finger move: "Even I have this kind of thought, let alone the disciples below." Put it into strong acids and alkalis, mix them with oxygen and warm them with real fire. Because Element Zero is a completely new realm, if it is done well, an ordinary Burning Gold Valley disciple can also achieve fame. ”
Wang Qi nodded: "It's ...... to be presumptuous."
"Not really. These conventional methods, you can find a random disciple of the Burning Gold Valley and be able to analyze the Tao for you. Mi Tianzhao said: "I heard that the person who introduced you to the beginning was still a disciple of the Burning Gold Valley. This level of news is not difficult for you to inquire about. ”
Wang Qi heard the other party's voice: "You mean...... Is there anything else that's hard to inquire about?"
Mi Tianzhao nodded: "Although if you have enough wisdom, you should be able to analyze many things from my method, but ...... I don't think the average person can do it. This feeling is not about the level, but rather an intuition. Many of the standards for seeking truth and empirical evidence of the Immortal League were established by the Immortal League on the basis of 'Yuan Aura Environment First' for the Shenzhou Continent dominated by the Yuan Aura environment. However, Element Zero is something that will never exist in the Yuan Aura environment, so this thing ......"
Wang Qi understood: "They will catch the blind!"
Mi Tianzhao snickered again: "Hehehehehe, I hope that there are not many colleagues who are gritting their teeth and dismantling the Stable Spirit Formation on their own empirical instruments!"
In the Empirical Department, the most expensive thing is the Stable Spirit Formation. And on each instrument, the most valuable part is also the Stable Spirit Formation. Once the Stable Spirit Formation is destroyed, the actual use value of the instrument will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, the instrument is not a magic instrument, but a precision machine. It is designed to operate in a meta-aura environment without interference from human will. In a high aura environment, these things are easy to be damaged quickly due to the ups and downs of mechanical energy fluctuations with aura fluctuations.
This time, Wang Qi realized that this beautiful Burning Gold Valley Grandmaster was actually a troublemaker, and his conscience was broken.
Wang Qi humbly bowed his head: "Please also ask Mr. Mi Tianzhao to teach me a lesson." ”
Mi Tianzhao didn't seem to understand: "You are?"
"I'm also interested in the study of neutrons, so I hope you can teach me about it. Wang Qi said: "I participated in the proof of element zero because I wanted to study neutrons and explore the secrets of the microscopic realm. ”
Mi Tianzhao covered his mouth: "Unbelievable...... It's not a loss to be a guy who is known as a 'generalist'. Transverse arithmetic. There are still dissatisfaction in the fields of living beings and gravity, and they still want to enter the realm of physical properties. ”
Wang Qi's eyes were sincere.
Seeing Wang Qi like this, Mi Tianzhao's expression became serious. He paced back and forth in the study, and looked at Wang Qi twice: "You don't have a deep understanding of the field of the way of physical nature, and most of you think from the point of view of the ethereal way, right?"
Wang Qi nodded.
Mi Tianzhao then thought: "If it is other projects, it is not impossible. You have done me great kindness. But this project ...... IMHO, you didn't show the qualities I needed. ”
"This project is the first of its kind in the Immortal League, note that it is the 'first' demonstration of the Immortal League's completely carried out in a high aura environment, and it is a breakthrough in the current empirical methods, test standards, and the thinking of the monks of the Immortal League when studying things. Later generations will inevitably build on our foundation when studying phenomena in a pure high Reiki environment. ”
"In other words, we're actually setting new standards -- and I think these follow-up projects are even more important than the discovery and production of the zero element. ”
"Let me tell you this, and don't think I'm arrogant - in this case, I think I'm the Bo Yier predecessor of the new era. ”
Bo Yier, a peerless genius who entered the Tao more than 1,500 years ago, one of the friends of Master Yuan Li in his later years, is also the ancestor of the Burning Gold Valley, and is the inventor of the positive method, the empirical principle, and the empirical method in the way of physical nature.
To put it simply, he was a great man who started an era.
And Mi Tianzhao has such ambitions.
"If I think of myself as 'Little Yier', I naturally want to establish a new empirical approach. And Mr. Wang, your current level of empirical evidence ...... I'm sorry, I can't see it. ”
Wang Qi shook his head and sighed: "It's true." ”
What Mi Tianzhao wants to do is to open the way of his own and create a new branch of the way of physical nature, and he does not set a standard for this branch. If he succeeds, the Burning Gold Valley will inevitably have an additional branch.
Comparing his heart to his heart, if Wang Qi copied the Bourbaki School, a disciple of Tianlingling came and had to intervene, he would not be happy.
"But......" Mi Tianzhao changed his words: "Actually, we can cooperate." (To be continued.) )
