Chapter 253 Wanting to take the fire is hard to think about
As he gained more and more insight into physical knowledge, Xie Mingzhou became more and more disappointed, because he found that today's scientific knowledge could not explain many problems in cultivation, and even thought that cultivation and magic were pretending to be gods and fooling people, which made him unacceptable at all, after all, he knew best whether he was pretending to be a god or not.
But he doesn't want to start a debate in the scientific community, as long as he knows about it, and others don't believe that it's someone else's freedom.
On this day, he was browsing the Internet when a piece of news suddenly caught his attention: the Large Hadron Collider is scheduled to officially launch the experiment on September 10, with more than 60 Chinese scientists participating.
Science is originally a process of continuous conjecture and continuous experimentation, Xie Mingzhou is not surprised by this experiment at all, he is interested in this large hadron collider.
The Large Hadron Collider, abbreviated as LHC, is a particle accelerator and collider located in the suburbs of Geneva, Switzerland, and is used for international research in high-energy physics.
It is the world's largest and most energetic particle accelerator, a high-energy physics device that accelerates protons into collisions and is home to seven thousand scientists and engineers from about eighty countries.
Buried 100 meters deep into the ground at a cost of tens of billions of dollars, its 27-kilometre-long circular tunnel is located at CERN (also known as the European Particle Physics Laboratory) in Geneva, Switzerland, and is built by 40 countries across the border between France and Switzerland.
Over the past few decades, physicists have continued to understand the elementary particles that make up the universe and their interactions, and this understanding has enriched the "Standard Model" of particle physics, but there are still gaps in this model that make it impossible to paint a complete picture.
In order to help scientists unravel these key unsolved mysteries in particle physics, a large amount of experimental data is needed, and the Large Hadron Collider plays the role of "data provider". When it accelerates two beams of protons to an extremely high energy state and collides with each other, its energy state is comparable to the state in billionths of a second after the Big Bang.
This experiment is obviously beyond the scope of what physicists know today, and the main purpose is mainly to explore and observe, and Xie Mingzhou vaguely feels that this experiment seems to have some benefits for himself.
It is said that he has nothing to do with the large hadron collider, but he believes in his hunch, and after calculating that there are still a few days left, Xie Mingzhou decided to take a look at it then.
Xie Mingzhou arrived a day early at the place where the Hadron collider was installed on the border between France and Switzerland, because many people believed that the experiment was extremely serious and unpredictable, and that the area had been cordoned off by security personnel and police for several tens of kilometers, and no one except for the invited scientists and journalists was allowed to enter.
He used his stealth technique to escape to a hundred meters underground, a circular tunnel with a diameter of three meters and a length of 27 kilometers, located on the same plane, on which many ground facilities such as cooling compressors, ventilation equipment, control electrical equipment, freezing tanks, etc. were built.
Thousands of engineers are putting the finishing touches on an experiment that is completely unknown, with unknown results and unknown risks, and now all they can do is make it work as best as possible in strict accordance with safety regulations and safety design.
After walking around the entire tunnel, Xie Mingzhou sat down next to the compression chamber of the proton beam detector and quietly waited for tomorrow's experiment.
On 10 September, the collider was tested for its initial start-up. The researchers injected a proton beam into the accelerator in a clockwise direction, accelerating it to an ultra-fast speed infinitely close to the speed of light, causing the proton beam to soar through a 27-kilometer-long circular tunnel at a speed of more than 10,000 revolutions per second.
The scene was broadcast live to the world via online video, and more than 300 journalists came to the control center laboratory to witness the entire testing process.
Xie Mingzhou released all his divine thoughts to cover the entire collider, and from the moment this proton beam entered the acceleration tube, he stared at them tightly, and under its powerful divine thoughts, he could see that the protons in the proton beam were like small white balls of light, running desperately in the acceleration tube, but this was actually limited in speed.
At this time, the proton beam is moving relatively slowly, dividing into sections every few kilometers, and the proton beam only ran around the tunnel an hour after the experiment was started in order to check that all the equipment was working properly.
After the first proton beam penetrated, after several hours of adjustment, the second proton beam was injected into the collider in the opposite direction, and after a period of complex and precise adjustment, the two proton beams collided together in an instant in the compression chamber densely packed with particle detectors in the tunnel!
This kind of collision is simply difficult to describe with pen and ink, if these protons are magnified to the size of a fist, the energy generated by their collision is enough to destroy the earth! This made Xie Mingzhou's Yuan Shen tremble!
But the next discovery made him ecstatic, he found that some of the collided protons (perhaps they should no longer be called protons) fused together, and some dissipated directly without a trace, and the power of those protons that merged into one was far greater than the true fire of the sun in his body.
"If you can introduce this proton into your body and refine it into the true fire of the sun, the power is absolutely domineering, at least dozens and hundreds of times stronger than the original! This kind of fire is simply hard to find!" Xie Mingzhou thought excitedly, "My hunch is really right, if I can refine this proton, the benefits will be great!"
He couldn't wait to stir his mind and pull the proton he had locked onto and fused into the mud pill, but with a lot of effort, the proton didn't move.
With Xie Mingzhou's strong divine thoughts, he couldn't pull a proton that was only one of the size of a hydrogen atom in size and almost negligible in space, which made his eyes widen and he couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head.
Seeing that these fused protons were about to collapse and disperse, Xie Mingzhou was so anxious that he escaped into the acceleration tube with a "whew", but no matter how desperately he tried to mobilize all his divine thoughts, it was still to no avail.
All the fused protons collapsed, and Xie Mingzhou hung his head, not to mention how depressed he was.
He spread his mind and covered the entire Hadron Collider again, this time the proton collision experiment was such a big stall, it would definitely not be just such a shot.
A few hours passed, Xie Mingzhou's eyes suddenly lit up, and the staff had already begun a new round of proton beam injection, and he hurriedly concentrated on waiting for the arrival of the next wave of proton collision.
