Wang Nian stepped off the bus, too late to watch the beautiful surroundings, and quickly walked towards the entrance of the institute.Waiting for him at the entrance of the institute was Wan Yuanxi.

Today is the day when the second experiment began. After receiving the news from Wan Yuanxi, he arranged all the work as soon as possible and hurried to Binhai City.

Fortunately, now the experiment has not started, he rushed over in time.

"Enter the visitor's fingerprint information first." Wan Yuanxi used the identity of the research institute to help Wang Nian enter the visitor's basic information.

Every non-institute personnel must be brought in when entering the institute, and the necessary identification information must be entered before entering.

After recording fingerprint information, facial information, and voice information, Wan Yuanxi took Wang Nian into the research institute.

"Are you ready for the second experiment?" Wang Nian asked.

"Preparation is sufficient. Yesterday Academician Chen arranged to modify the parameters of the experiment, and it was completed today. The experiment will start soon. If you come over a little slower, I am afraid you will miss it.

"The experiment is done so soon?"

"He can build such a large research institute within a year, as well as the [Star Ring] device. If you say it is fast or not, you can't use our thinking to define Academician Chen." Wan Yuanxi said as he walked.

After passing through the security gates, the two talents entered the Star Ring Command Center.

Chen Mo and others were already in the command center. After seeing Wang Nian, the two simply said hello.With a few words of greeting, Wang Nian didn't bother Chen Mo either, but walked to a seat next to Li Jian and others, and waited quietly for the experiment to begin.

At present, each post is doing the final inspection for [Huanhuan]. As long as the inspection is completed and there is no problem, the second experiment can officially start.

"President Chen, the final inspection has been completed and no abnormal problems have been found." Bai Lijing handed the report to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo glanced at the data in the report, walked to the computer on the console, and finally confirmed the data parameters.In the past few days, I have been in the laboratory, using Mo Nu’s simulation, designing experimental parameters, and setting up three sets of experimental parameter schemes.

Yesterday the parameters were completed, and he asked the staff of the institute to prepare the parameters of the experiment.Everyone has a clear division of labor, coupled with the help of intelligent robots, so the actions are very fast.

Five minutes later, after confirming that there was no problem with the data, Chen Mo put the report in his hand aside and said solemnly: "Now we are ready to start the second [Star Ring] experiment."

As soon as Chen Mo said this, everyone in the command center was ready to fight.

"The second controlled nuclear fusion experiment begins, turn on the power."

"Startup was successful."

"[Star Ring] The field system is working normally. The vacuum chamber is normal, and the background vacuum pressure is 4×10-6Pa...The cooling system is working normally."

"The B-coil current is increasing, 10,000 amps...100,000 amps...200,000 amps...1.3 megaamps..."

The familiar voice of artificial intelligence made all the researchers on the field nervous.

The achievements of the first experiment let them see the possibility of successful controlled nuclear fusion.Every experiment now may be an experiment to successfully achieve controlled nuclear fusion.

"The deuterium-tritium fuel is being charged, and the fuel is filled; the ohm (E-coil) heating coil current has increased to the maximum..."

"The divertor works normally, and the water cooling system is normal..."

...

Soon, as in the first experiment, the current and magnetic field all reached predetermined values.Some parameters are different from the first time, and all others are the same.The fuel is also filled, the preparations are completed, and the next step is to ignite. Everyone clenched their fists unconsciously.

"Prepare for the countdown to fire, 10...9...8...2...1...fire."

As the countdown to artificial intelligence ended, everyone's heart twitched fiercely after seeing the instantaneously changing numbers on the computer.

[Singhuan] The real-time data collection system adopted. During the fusion experiment, any data changes in each system will be collected in real time and it is easy to see the changes inside the device.

"The ignition is successful, the plasma temperature is 84.45 million degrees Celsius, the fuel is being charged, the pressure is being increased, and the plasma is starting to heat..."

Yes!!!

Many people clenched their fists, and the data this time was much higher than the first experiment. This has already shown that Chen Mo's improved experimental parameters are effective.

After the ignition is successful, the next step is to see how long the plasma can run stably.

89 million degrees Celsius; 90.84 million degrees Celsius...

When the plasma temperature exceeded 90 million degrees Celsius, everyone shouted in their hearts.The temperature of the plasma is already higher than the first experiment, which is another small breakthrough.

Excited, everyone continues to pay attention to the changes in data.

Wang Nian was already holding his fist in excitement, his face flushed, and it was no different from the appearance of Wan Yuanxi and others in the first laboratory.

Compared with the first time, Li Jian and others are much calmer.I've seen a puncture in a train, this time even if I am excited, it will not be so exaggerated.

The continuous running time has exceeded 500 seconds, and now every second is a new record.In the excitement and ecstasy of all researchers, the time elapsed in one second, and the process of continuous plasma discharge also ended.

9500 degrees Celsius, 762 seconds, successfully broke the 12-minute mark.

This data drove all researchers crazy.

In the second experiment, even though it did not finally obtain a stable and long-running plasma.But the results achieved once again set the record set in the first experiment.

If you continue to optimize, success is within reach.If the news goes out, I am afraid it will shake the whole world.Everyone clearly feels that the era of energy revolution is approaching.

This time, without Chen Mo speaking, after the experiment, everyone in the command center immediately began preparations for the next experiment.

None of the researchers found that they had been affected by Chen Mo before they knew it. Everyone has only one goal, which is to stabilize the plasma that can discharge for a long time and achieve controlled nuclear fusion.

Three days later, the third experiment came as scheduled.

With the previous two experiments laid out, everyone's work is orderly.In order for the experiment to proceed smoothly, everyone repeatedly checked the work they were responsible for, for fear that a slight error would cause the experiment to fail.The new experiment also created a new record, making everyone weep with joy.At 99 million degrees Celsius, the plasma continues to discharge for 964 seconds.

The fourth experiment has not yet started. Wang Nian, Li Jian and others all went off in person and temporarily participated in the preparation work.The third experiment was 99 million degrees Celsius, 964 seconds, and the data both broke nine. All of them saw the dawn of victory.Once they were not optimistic about the [Star Ring], it became the most likely instrument for their research.

With the efforts of everyone, the fourth experiment also started as originally planned, and finally set an incredible record of 102 million degrees Celsius and a continuous discharge of plasma for 1042 seconds.

In the fourth experiment, the data had reached the data they expected, but the plasma could not continue to run forever.The data both broke through the theoretical values ​​in the calculations, and there was some discrepancy between theory and reality. Everyone was not discouraged and tried their best to prepare for the arrival of the fifth experiment.

Several experiments have continuously adjusted and optimized the set experimental parameters. Various experimental parameters, in the joint optimization of Chen Mo and Mo Nu, have slowly approached the final answer.

The Institute of Science Island has also entered an unprecedented tense time.During this time, all personnel on Science Island are not allowed to leave for half a step.Even Chen Mo, apart from going to the laboratory in Building No. 1 of the March Ant Headquarters, spent the rest of the time in Science Island and did not go home.

The news of continuous breakthroughs in controlled nuclear fusion has been tightly sealed, and the outside world does not know that an era of energy transformation is about to begin on this small island.
