Chapter 156 Antimatter Breakthrough
"To bend space through gravity, we will try to use the grand unified theory to convert energy into gravity, and rely on this method to achieve the purpose of observing dark matter!"
A large group of scientists closely watched the situation in the vacuum experiment cabinet through virtual reality.
They are advancing to the base at the moment, and the experiment site is already on an asteroid millions of miles away.
There, a small black ball was suspended in the void. This is the gravitational conversion instrument built by humans at the advance base under the guidance of the grand unified theory.
This instrument can create great gravity in a very small space, similar to the mechanism of a gravity bomb, but it is gentle and controllable, and will not collapse quickly in pursuit of power like a weapon.
Under the control of the laboratory host, a trace of energy is being instilled in the form of wireless charging. Through its conversion, the energy becomes gravity and radiates out.
With the input of energy, its gravitational force is gradually increasing.
"Well...it's already ten times more than Blue Star's standard gravitational force. Continue to increase the conversion power."
Looking at the value on the observation instrument, the professor in charge gave an order.
The gravitational source produced by this energy conversion instrument can only affect a small space. Just like a miniature black hole, its total mass is even only a few hundred grams of the instrument. Such a black hole is only a few tenths of a nanometer small, and its strong gravitational force can only be felt on the scale of a few centimeters away from it, and the equidistant expansion to Even if it is only a decimeter, it will not be aware of its existence.
The gravitational source built on this asteroid at present belongs to this nature.
Now the strength of this gravitational source is already equivalent to the gravitational force of the white dwarf star, but its gravitational force can only exert its power on an extremely close scale, and it can't even exert a little influence on the glass wall half a meter away.
Under such gravitational strength, the keen observational instruments immediately captured a little observable distortion in the space around this gravitational source. This piece of distortion is like the air above the fire.
The experiment is still increasing the transmission of energy, so the strength of this gravitational source is getting higher and higher. But no matter how powerful it is, its range of influence cannot exceed one decimeter.
"The unit gravitational strength of a neutron star has been reached."
The effect of this gravitational source is like the effect of putting a few cubic nanometers of neutron star matter here. Because the total mass is very small, it is impossible for them to affect distant objects, and because of the extremely high density, they can even cause extremely obvious distortions in the space around them.
Gravity is the universal force between all forms of energy or mass. It cannot be confined to the membrane, on the contrary, it has to permeate the whole space. Because the gravitational force can not only dissipate, but also diverge into extra dimensions in a large amount, then its attenuation with distance should be stronger than electricity. Electricity is confined to the membrane. However, we know from observations of planetary orbits that the gravitational pull of the sun decreases as the planet moves away from the sun, in the same way that electricity decreases with distance.
If humans live on a membrane called three-dimensional, there must be some reason why gravity does not spread far away from the membrane, but is confined to its vicinity.
One possibility is that the extra dimension terminates on the second shadow brane, which is not far from the brane in which humans live. This shadow membrane cannot be seen because light can only travel along the three-dimensional membrane, not through the space between the two membranes.
However, because of the characteristics of gravity, human beings can feel the gravity of the objects on the shadow membrane. For physics, this kind of matter that appears on the shadow membrane is the dark matter that human beings have been looking for.
In the past it was invisible matter, but its gravity could be felt.
In fact, the evidence for dark matter in its own galaxy is clear enough.
Because the total amount of matter observed by humans is not enough for gravity to hold the rotating galaxies together. Unless some kind of dark matter is present, galaxies will fly apart.
Similarly, the total amount of matter observed in superclusters is not enough to keep them from falling apart, so dark matter must exist again. Of course, high-latitude conjectures such as shadow membranes are not the only theoretical conjectures of dark matter. Dark matter may just be some form of matter that is difficult to observe, such as weakly interacting heavy particles and so on.
All kinds of conjectures are now hoped to be revealed in this space experiment. The research on dark matter will lead to a brand-new physical discovery, and its importance is not weaker than that of antimatter.
Therefore, research in such cutting-edge fields is the focus of support in today's advanced bases that have achieved a great leap in productivity.
No matter how hard it is, it’s just an asteroid.
If these asteroid groups are conscious, they will complain that since the arrival of the sixth human beings, they have not only frantically collected all kinds of substances in the asteroids, but also turned them all into various extremely dangerous experimental sites .
After mastering the grand unified theory, the current cutting-edge high-energy physics research is always to create proton black holes and atomic black hole-level powerful gravitational sources. Only by creating extreme environments can we be called human high-energy physics experiments.
Hmm. Particle collisions were so childish.
But if the artificial black hole gets out of control on the blue star, it might be a tragedy for the entire civilization.
It’s no wonder that in the Great Filter Theory, the theory of self-destruction of civilization also constitutes a powerful screening net.
So now the experts who are engaged in physics need to go to the forward base to verify the conjecture after they come up with the basic theoretical framework at the zero base.
The observation of dark matter in front of me is considered good. The antimatter experiment not long ago got out of control and directly annihilated an asteroid belt.
In a vacuum, the ear can't be sent out even once, and it disappears forever in the big universe.
"Continue to increase the gravitational force and maximize the space distortion!"
The gravitational force generated by the device reaches the maximum, the space spontaneously distorts the light, and the moment a miniature black hole appears, it evaporates almost quickly and disappears soon.
Einstein Rosen Bridge, that is, the wormhole phenomenon did not appear, but the recording instrument still recorded the key data, and there were endless cheers from the observation room.
The observation room on the other side is much quieter. This group of experts is the project team dedicated to extracting antimatter.
It's a pity that after arriving at the forward base, it's more like making an antimatter bomb.
The laboratory was blown up a lot, and even a small layer of the asteroid belt was wiped away.
Today, after nearly two years of construction, the Advance Base has nearly 2,000 scientific researchers settled in it. It is already the most important scientific research base outside of Blue Star. After all, the current experiment, even if it is placed on the moon, will affect Blue Star. Humanity.
Fortunately, five spaceships have been built today, and the trip between the blue star and the asteroid belt is no longer difficult to return to.
When the second phase of the advance base project is completed, humans can even have the ability to build spaceships in this asteroid belt! Compared with other countries on Blue Star except China, the construction speed is obviously not the same civilization.
These are all inseparable from the accumulation of technology at Base Zero, and the terrible production efficiency of intelligent automation. Today's liberated and improved productivity is really enough to support mankind to enter the interstellar era.
"For the extraction of antimatter, there have been phased breakthroughs."
"But the problem we need to face is that the several devices that we expected before can store antimatter, all of which have been proved in experiments. They cannot store antimatter at all. Once it is manufactured, it will instantly produce an annihilation reaction with matter."
"If we don't solve the problem of storage devices, we will be like other colleagues ridiculed. We are not doing scientific research at all, but researching antimatter bombs!"
Everyone left the comfortable base zero, but came here with the awareness to lay the antimatter foundation for civilization.
Humanity's technology is as indomitable as Lu Yu's cosmic journey. A technological explosion immediately triggers the next wave, as if there is no bottleneck.
Especially after the mature controllable nuclear fusion, human beings jumped into the second-level civilization, and the expected third-level civilization filter—the omnic crisis was also eliminated invisible with the help of No. 7.
The advance base and spacecraft in front of us have already applied a lot of technology of the third-level civilization, that is, the basic material science has yet to be broken through, otherwise the advance base will already be regarded as the standard base of the third-level civilization.
But in this way, it is like jumping directly to the level of a fifth-level civilization, mastering antimatter?
After all, it is still a bit difficult!
This is much harder than a gravity bomb.
"Existing storage devices are all composed of matter. Even if they use any strong interaction materials, their essence is matter. Once in contact with antimatter, an annihilation reaction will inevitably occur."
"Besides the space bubbles created by space technology, I can't think of anything else that can act as a container for antimatter."
"Then this is quite interesting. The fifth-level civilization can already use antimatter as energy supply, but they need to create non-material devices to store antimatter, because that is a technology that can only be mastered by advanced civilizations."
"So will there be a situation where the use of antimatter by star-level civilizations is production and use, and it will never be stored?"
Some experts immediately proposed an idea to try to bypass the container device, which led to a group of experts discussing this situation for quite a long time.
It's a pity that in the database of the Dyson ball civilization, there is only the basic concept of antimatter, and before it can be applied, it is brutally visited by Lu Yu.
The fifth-level civilization encountered... It is a pity that they failed to complete friendly exchanges with Lu Yu, so that humans have now caused certain misunderstandings about the antimatter technology that is about to break through.
I think that the extracted things must be stored.
In fact, star-level civilizations really have no way to create stored antimatter devices.
The annihilation effect of this thing can start as long as it encounters matter, and the so-called void... is not empty!
A star-level civilization can only produce and use it immediately, or if it is a little careless, it will blow up its own spaceship.
Once you emancipate your mind, your thinking will instantly open up.
These bosses began to apply for the next round of experiments without hesitation, and within five minutes, Professor Mao's rejection of the approval was returned to their project team.
? ? ?
"We are a project related to the future of mankind!"
"And after we have mastered the foundation of antimatter, popularizing those super life forms will also allow Lu Yu to harvest a large wave of points..."
The appeal of the project team was immediately connected to Professor Mao's holographic projection, and he applied again to the old leader.
"It's fair to say which project team of the Advance Base is not related to the future of mankind?"
Professor Mao was quite speechless. When the anti-matter project team first came to the advance base, they were burdened with countless expectations, but after the advance base almost gave them resources, all they got was round after round of explosions, reducing the production capacity of the advance base. All fell by several percentage points.
Immature technology requires a lot of investment in trial and error, which is inevitable in the development of science and technology.
It's a pity that there are too many projects in the forward base. No matter how powerful the productivity is, even if the mass of several asteroids can be digested every day, every project at home can't help but want to build a black hole to meet the experimental conditions!
Professor Mao seems to have returned to the period when No. 0 base was first built, when various project teams were frantically recruiting people.
At that time, people were robbed, but at this time, experimental resources were robbed.
This group of guys really never forget their original intention...
However, they are all people from Base Zero. Antimatter is indeed a project that everyone is looking forward to. Regarding the request of these old guys, Professor Mao quickly coordinated the resources.
At this time, it embodies the role of a heavyweight.
If it wasn't for Professor Mao to be in charge of the forward base, the coordination alone would be a stretch.
Even in the world of exploring the truth, there are still people with sophistication, which makes organization and coordination especially valuable.
"You all know that this opportunity is rare and rare, right?"
A few days later, the professor in charge of the project team said seriously to the team members: "Because of previous failures, our priority has been reduced to the same as that of ordinary project teams!"
"If we fail again this time, we will not be able to apply again until half a month later for the next round of experiments, so this time we must produce certain results no matter what!"
Everyone nodded solemnly at the holographic projection of the test site in front of them.
On an asteroid millions of miles away from Ceres, this is the base for this type of antimatter experiment.
Since their project team has blown up more than ten nuclear fusion reactors, this time they simply gave a slightly damaged test base.
But even this test base is much more advanced than all the laboratories on Blue Star put together.
This round of experiments has attracted much less attention than before.
When everyone thought it was another silent explosion, a light suddenly flashed on an inconspicuous asteroid in the deep space. It was the light of the antimatter shield!
...
【Antimatter foundation +15%, reward points 150 points】
【Anti-matter shield technology +30%, bonus points 200 points】
"Um?"
Looking at the magnificent obelisk of the intruder in the distance, Lu Yu once again saw the system reward popping up in front of him.
