Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Chapter 667 Miniaturized Breakthroughs!

Ultimately, Brother Ross stubbornly failed to accept his offer, saying that he would bring back the Klei Institute cheque in its entirety and hand it over to the Ark.

Later on, Ark thought carefully that his proposal was indeed somewhat inappropriate, so he was not doing it for Brother Difficult. Instead, he was given $100,000 in travel expenses from the finance of the Institute of Higher Studies, and wished him a good time in France and his new girlfriend.

Cousin Luo did not refuse the money, not only that, but even took an extra month off from him.

Looks like he's going to come back after the money wave...

And regardless of Brother Ross still in Europe.

Over the past few days, the Ark has received messages from a number of people.

Among them are his students in Princeton and colleagues at work, colleagues who have had brief exchanges or exchanged business cards at academic conferences, and friends who have had in-depth exchanges.

Like Tao Zhexuan.

When they first studied Goldbach's assumptions, they worked closely together, and the relationship in private has been good ever since. Academically, both are omnipotent scholars, and the scope of research covers almost all directions in mathematics, so there's a lot to talk about.

On the phone, Tao Zhexuan smiled and sent his congratulations: "Congratulations, another millennium problem has fallen in front of you. Perhaps the Clay Institute should update their" question bank ”. By the way, can you tell me your next subject? ”

Ark: “I probably won't be studying math for a while, but thinking about how to change science with math. ”

Tao Zhexuan: “Like climbing the moon? ”

Ark: “Kind of one of them! ”

Tao Zhexuan: “This sounds exciting, and my wife works for NASA, and she always shares with me things that are far from my field of research. If you succeed one day, save me a seat, I haven't traveled to the moon in my life. ”

The Ark laughed and made a joke: "There will be a day when I may be able to drive the academic report to the moon. ”

After hanging up the phone, the ark stood up from its office chair and was about to go downstairs for lunch in the cafeteria, and the phone just went off in its pocket for a short while and rang again.

At first glance, Sheng Xianfu called, the ark did not hesitate, and immediately pressed the connection key.

“Hello?”

“Professor…”

Hearing something wrong in the sound of Sheng Xianfu, the Ark did not want to, immediately asked.

“Again? Did you hurt anyone? Is the equipment I lent you okay? ”

After listening to this, Sheng Xianfu almost didn't catch his breath and coughed a few times: “What's blowing up again! We're not studying bombs, are we so nervous? ”

Ark: “…”

In a sense, fusion reactions are worse than ordinary bombs, right?

But…

People are fine.

With a relaxed breath in his heart, the ark said silently: "What are you doing mysteriously? ”

Sheng Xianfu awkwardly touched the nose beam: “Aren't I excited? ”

Ark: “… excited? ”

“Well," he said, grabbing his phone's grand constitutional riches, locating himself at the bottom, in a slightly trembling tone, "we seem to have... succeeded. ”

The phone was silent for half a minute.

The ark set its mind and took a deep breath and said.

“I'll be right over, meeting and saying. ”

Go ahead, Ark hung up and continued to call Wang Peng.

“Go down to the County Hall and follow me. ”

Wang Peng didn't ask much, only returned one word.

“Okay.”

Twenty-minute drive, a black red flag parked in front of the Academy.

After disembarking, the ark did not have any stops and quickly walked through the Academy's access control, heading straight to the corner of the Academy.

Since the last safety incident, the lab of the Miniaturization Study Group on Controllable Fusion has been moved from the corner of the compound to a temporary warehouse located next to the Institute. And even so, people who pass by here occasionally walk around unconsciously.

Quickly walking to the lab door, before the front foot of the ark was next to the door, a deafening cheer was heard in the lab, along with a shock of glass.

“What's going on?” He hastily entered the lab and quickly found the excited and rich Constitution, the Ark immediately asked.

“The idea of using liquid metals for working solutions is right! Experimental data show that when using liquid lithium as a working solution, we can apply more acoustic pressure to the bubbles through an ultrasonic emitter! and make the volume of bubbles more stable!” In order to restrain the excitement in your heart and make your speech seem sharp, the two shoulders of Sheng Xianfu are shaking.

Hearing one's thoughts proved, the face of the ark can't help but show joy.

But he was more concerned with how they did it than with success itself.

“Why did the last time fail? ”

"At first we tried to increase the power of the ultrasound generator, but the neutron value-added rate could not get up, and finally we realized that the key to the problem was the tritium mixture gas! ”

Ark: “What did you do? ”

“We preheated the injected gas! ”

Moving in the heart of the ark, he immediately said: "Heated ionization of deuterium mixture gas? ”

The Constitution was full of joy: "Exactly! ”

A sudden expression appeared on the face of the ark, presumably understanding their practices.

By heating and ionizing the tritium mixture gas and then injecting it into the liquid lithium through the inlet, although tens of thousands of ionization temperatures are nothing in relation to the instantaneous temperatures of tens of millions of degrees, the ionic gas in the expanded state will have a larger surface area than the ambient state when it is injected into the liquid lithium, and the energy transferred from the sound field to the bubbles will increase as well.

In such a case, the rapidly collapsing bubbles will gain a greater instantaneous temperature, thus meeting the conditions under which the DT fusion reaction occurs!

Standing next to Sheng Xianfu, Professor Li Changxia also said with excitement: “We have found a more stable way to achieve controlled fusion! We're in front of the world again! ”

“Yeah...”

Looking at the rudimentary pitch-black metal round tube in the center of the lab, the face of the ark also seemed like a glimpse.

The design plan for the Hall propulsion unit has been recovered from Wreckage III, and when the five-axis CNC machine tool is installed in the space shuttle assembly center, there is absolutely no problem with Xiao Ai completing the production realization. Now the problem of miniaturization of controllable fusion has also been solved, and nothing has stopped him from completing the blueprint he had in mind.

Of course, even now, this “reactor” appears to be poor, with far less power and energy utilisation than the massive magnetic restraint fusion devices of the ancient heap, and the high cost of non-reusability makes it almost impossible to use it for general transportation.

However, this miniaturized fusion power generation device is not in itself used to provide energy for productive life, so this disadvantage is irrelevant.

Considering its superiority in volume energy density and its power advantage over fission batteries, even if it is "slightly” expensive, it is flawless.

With the Hall Propulsion Unit he recovered from Wreck III, the set will redefine the word space, just as gunpowder redefines war.

It is no exaggeration to say that the whole world will change because of what they discover today…
