Chapter 277: major discovery

On April 15, the installation of degenerate laboratory instruments was completed.

After several days of research, scientists also know that degenerate matter cannot be detected by ordinary methods.

In this kind of high-density degenerate matter, the nucleus is crushed, leaving only the basic particles closely aligned.

It has no fear at all, even if it throws degenerate matter into the sun to bathe, it has no problem.

Feng Yunde led everyone to the degenerate state laboratory, and he sighed with emotion: "We compressed other substances with degenerate substances, and we got some substances with tightly compressed atoms, which are very special.

We are not completely unharmed, but we are almost unable to make a breakthrough by studying degenerate matter.

If there is more degenerate matter, using it as a shell can achieve nuclear fusion reactions.

At present, nuclear fusion reaction is because no material can withstand the high temperature of the reaction, and it can only be achieved by electromagnetic confinement.

There are many technical difficulties in electromagnetic confinement that have not been broken. Under the condition that nuclear fusion theory is very mature, every country in the world has not produced a feasible nuclear fusion reactor.

Reaching the highest record is our country, and the response time is only a few hundred seconds. "

"Unless we can make this degenerate material, otherwise how can a little bit of degenerate matter be used in the field of engineering.

We still start experiments on quantum physics as soon as possible to make the most of degenerate matter. Zhou Yu reminded.

Scientists began to debug the instrument, preparing to observe the high-energy particles colliding with it, or different quantum moving around it, through the special properties of degenerate matter.

How do these particles react differently under the influence of degenerate matter?

Scientists speculate that degenerate matter is highly compressed inside, and there are no more atoms present. It is composed of the most basic particles.

Even if it is a macroscopic material, under certain conditions, it can also produce some characteristics of microscopic particles.

Degenerate matter was transported to a special laboratory and placed in front of the exit of the helical accelerator.

Scientists are going to use alpha rays, which in turn bombard degenerate matter.

Alpha rays are helium nuclei running at high speeds, and their volume is relatively large.

Yu Zhenfeng stared at the instrument and gave an order: "Alpha rays hit degenerate matter. Now the experiment will begin. All units should pay attention to the detection of degenerate matter and alpha rays."

Yu Zhenfeng just came to the water city yesterday. He has an important project that needs to be ended urgently.

It took 5 days to finish processing, and immediately rushed to the water city.

He originally thought that he didn't have the opportunity to lead the project. He didn't expect that because of the special nature of the water city, he needed to readjust the instrument. He waited for the opportunity of this experiment.

The progressively accelerated helium nucleus turns into alpha rays and bombards the degenerate material front.

All instruments are running at high speed, staring at the state after the alpha rays hit the degenerate matter.

Degenerate matter, no one is worried, its hardness is not afraid of alpha rays.

Yu Zhenfeng and many scientists looked at the data collected by the instrument. As expected, the helium nuclei were directly crushed.

"The degenerate material is intact and its quality has not changed after testing the torque balance."

"Oh my God, there really is a third substance coming out of the broken helium nuclei.

There are only protons and centers inside the nucleus, and the degenerate matter is not damaged. What is this third kind of matter? "

"This is a great discovery. It is the most important breakthrough in modern physics.

It is most likely the quark, the basic unit of protons and neutrons.

For the first time in our laboratory, we found the existence of quarks, and quarks are no longer a matter of theoretical existence. "

The special existence of degenerate matter can completely break the helium nucleus itself, and eject quarks in the process of fragmentation.

In ordinary particle collision experiments, alpha rays are used to strike an object, or a single helium nucleus is used to strike another atom.

It is impossible for both protons and neutrons to break up directly.

Even if two particles collide with each other, after the helium nucleus and another nucleus are broken, they will form a new artificial element under the action of a strong interaction force.

In addition to the elements in the periodic table of the nature, the following man-made elements are manufactured by this method.

Only degenerate matter, which does not have a nucleus, is composed of particles that may be smaller than a quark, so that the helium nucleus can be completely broken.

Zhou Yu saw that the scientists were extremely excited, and he was also very excited. This is really a huge discovery.

If it can be confirmed that this particle is a quark, with the development of technology, people can always control quarks.

By that time, you could switch between elements at will.

With a handful of dirt, a piece of gold can be made.

You can also use quarks to assemble artificial elements that exist stably, such as plutonium, the main raw material of particle batteries.

"Leave a group of people to repeat experiments, find ways to capture particles that are suspected of quarks, and study the properties of such particles.

Others carry out the next set of experiments. We have to go through the designed experiments first, leaving the abnormal experiments, and we are in-depth research on these experiments. Zhou Yu reminded.

Yu Zhenfeng started the experiment again. He continued to bombard degenerate materials with beta rays.

Beta rays are composed of electrons moving at high speed.

Beta rays bombarded the degenerate material and thought that electrons would burst into the surroundings.

As a result, the laboratory was calm and no abnormalities occurred.

"What's going on is completely different from what we expected from the experimental results. What went wrong?"

"Look at the playback of the experiment, play back the specifics frame by frame, and quickly find out what just happened?"

"I seemed to see a few bands of light just now, but they just flew by. Is it an electron diffraction?"

"It's impossible! There are no fine slits around the degenerate matter. How can diffraction occur?"

They started to examine the experimental video frame by frame, when the electrons were about to bombard degenerate matter.

They do not seem to be a particle beam, but instead become a wave, bypassing the degenerate matter, and forming common electron wave diffraction fringes on both sides of the degenerate matter.

"Sure enough, the electron beam was diffracted by waves. How could the wave-particle duality suddenly show the nature of waves in this case?"

According to quantum mechanics, microscopic particles have wave-particle duality, and electromagnetic waves such as light waves also have wave-particle duality.

It's just that the electromagnetic wave as a whole behaves like a wave. In some special cases, it will become a virtual particle simplified from a portion of energy. UU Reading Books www.uukanshu.com

Its essence is still a small amount of energy, not a solid particle.

Particles have wave-particle duality, but it shows that the nature of waves or particles is determined by observation.

This quantum mechanical problem is the famous Schrödinger's cat problem.

Analogically, the wave-particle duality of particles can be simply compared to a random function.

When the random function is not derived, it represents this function. Once the random function determines a certain value, it represents this value.

Zhou Yu led the scientists to continue to explore this problem, and they finally discovered that there is a strange phenomenon in degenerate matter.

Under certain conditions, particles near it exhibit the characteristics of waves. Under certain conditions, the waves near it show the characteristics of particles.

With this conclusion, some scientists are crying with tears. This is an extremely important discovery. This phenomenon can solve many problems encountered in modern physics.
