In the remaining half of the month, Zhang Heng went to the amnesia plane in deep space to transport supplies several times.
These materials will be used to manufacture new high-energy physics research equipment. These equipment are one of the essential equipment to promote the progress of physics and even the entire science.
With the development of science and technology, human beings' understanding of the structure of matter is also increasing day by day. From the beginning of observing various materials around us with the naked eye, it gradually developed to using magnifying glasses, microscopes, and later using high-energy physics research equipment, etc., and gradually deepened Down to the deep-level structures of cells, molecules, atoms and nuclei, every new discovery will bring about tremendous social and technological progress.
The discovery of the atomic nucleus and extranuclear electrons has led to the development of radio, semiconductors, television, radar, lasers, and X-rays. This shows how important high-energy physics is to the progress of science.
Without these equipment, no matter how much theoretical foundation and talent the top scientists in the deep space amnesia plane have, they are still ingenious. In order to prevent the knowledge of those top scientists from being buried, these top scientists are worth billions or tens of billions. Devices are an absolute must.
These high-energy physics research facilities include: particle accelerators, hadron colliders, synchrotron radiation facilities, etc.
If you want to understand the microstructure of a substance, you must first break it up. A particle accelerator uses high-speed particles to "break" the substance being measured, allowing positive and negative electrons to collide in motion, which can maximize the microstructure of the substance. changes, thereby allowing us to understand the basic properties of matter.
Of course, if Zhang Heng just makes the same devices as in the real world, then his hundreds of billions of dollars may not be enough to spend. But after all, he has science and technology that far exceeds reality. In his hands, the manufacturing cost of those devices The cost of equipment and materials will be greatly reduced, and after it is built, the performance it can exert will be far beyond the reality of international cutting-edge equipment.
Scientists have always been committed to miniaturizing particle accelerators. The length of the circular tunnel of the European Hadron Collider, the largest in the world, reaches 27 kilometers. Among the data obtained by Zhang Heng from the radiation plane, there is a new type of particle collision. According to the machine design drawing, this impact ring tunnel is only 200 meters long, but it can also reach the speed of the most advanced particle accelerator in reality.
Not only that, ordinary particle accelerators require superconducting, so the internal temperature needs to be extremely low, even colder than minus 270 degrees Celsius in the universe. Zhang Heng’s room-temperature superconductor can avoid this defect of particle accelerators, just this By making up for these defects, the size of this particle accelerator is several times smaller than that of the same type of device!
Therefore, for Zhang Heng, technology is not the factor that limits his development, manpower and resources are.
As the academy completely moved to the deep space amnesia plane, Zhang Heng's strength also began to enter a new round of technological explosion. There are more than five synthetic human production lines there, and thousands of synthetic humans are manufactured every day to join the construction of the world. Moreover, there are thousands of top scientists who are focused on experiments to climb the technology tree. It can be said that the technology of the deep space amnesia plane has far left the real world behind. The only limitation is the population.
However, this flaw cannot be solved for the time being, and Zhang Heng will not go out of his way to teleport humans from the radiation plane over again and again in order to increase the population. The quota of one hundred people each time seems to be a lot, but compared with the needs of civilization, Still a drop in the bucket. Moreover, the quality of human beings in the wasteland world varies greatly. A small amount is fine, but bringing in too much will simply cause chaos.
The above limitations doomed Zhang Heng to be unable to soar to the sky, but these are all temporary. As long as Zhang Heng can continue to become stronger, these shortcomings will be made up for sooner or later.
The deep space amnesia plane is developing, and the real world will certainly not lag behind. Zhang Heng sent the tunnel boring machine from the Virgin Islands back to the hive, and continued to drill holes at the bottom of the hive until it reached a depth of 500 meters. Then he dug horizontally, and finally excavated a circular tunnel several kilometers long. Then a highly valuable particle accelerator was built on this tunnel.
Because the technology is here, this particle accelerator will become the most advanced accelerator in mankind.
At this time, after several days of construction, this particle accelerator that cost billions has been built. The price is very small for such a high-end instrument, but its function is very powerful. Particles can be accelerated to infinitely close to the speed of light, and then collisions can be studied.
At this time, Yan Ronghua was leading more than twenty physical scientists and hundreds of assistants to observe the physical experiments in the accelerator.
"Iron atoms have entered sub-light speed in the linear accelerator, and are ready to be introduced into the circular accelerator, and the strong magnetic field is ready!"
"Successfully entered the ring accelerator. A new round of acceleration is underway. It is currently 93% of the speed of light and is still accelerating!"
"The speed is enough, prepare to turn on the ultra-high field magnetic device, prepare the resonance machine, and prepare to collect neutrons."
“…”
"Iron atoms have passed through the strong magnetic zone, detection begins!"
"Iron atoms have been successfully torn apart, protons and atoms have been stripped away, leaving only neutrons unaffected by the strong magnetic region, and the particles have begun to slow down!"
"Prepare the strong electric combiner, prepare the electrons to bond to the neutron surface, don't let the neutron speed slow down too much!"
“…”
"The mission has been successfully completed. Virtual particles have been formed and continue to accelerate!"
"It has accelerated to 98% of the speed of light. Professor Yan, do you still need to continue accelerating?"
"The speed is almost there. Prepare to guide it into a straight track. Be careful not to slow it down. We must successfully drive the proton into the aluminum atom!"
"The vacuum chamber has been charged, ready..."
In the entire underground laboratory, everyone looked nervously at the boiler-like device behind them. Suddenly, the device shook violently. Yan Ronghua even felt a slight tremor coming from under his feet. trembling.
Next, a large amount of data once again appeared on the screen in front of him. The scientist responsible for the observation wiped his sweat and stared at the data flowing down like a waterfall. When he saw the last piece of data, a touch of joy suddenly appeared in his eyes. .
"Success, Professor Yan!" The bald scientist smiled like a child. He straightened up and shouted in surprise at everyone, "We succeeded! The high-deflection metal has been successfully completed!"
Everyone looked relieved. Only Yan Ronghua remained serious. He glanced at the scientist and frowned, "Dr. Jim, please control your emotions. Success is normal, but there are levels of success." There's still a big gap between barely passing and 'excellent'."
"Yes, I'm sorry." The scientist known as Dr. Jim smiled and returned to his post.
After a whole day passed, the experiment was finally over. After it was over, everyone hurriedly gathered around the boiler-like vacuum chamber device and watched the assistant take out an aluminum metal plate from it. Everyone's face was full of anticipation. color.
At this time, Zhang Heng also came to the laboratory under the notice of Yan Ronghua.
