After Xu Zhou confirms that there is no problem with the position of the superconducting wire, the entire ignition plan will also undergo the final timing.
At the same time, in Longke Academy, Zhang An received a call from Liu Zhongmin.
After that, Zhang An found several colleagues who were studying the field of nuclear fusion and went to the Ark Academy of Sciences.
The other three people on the road were a little curious and said:
"Academician Zhang, what is going on? The dean asked us to go to the Ark Academy of Sciences together?"
"Yes, it was a bit sudden. I still have two running pictures in my hand that haven't finished yet..."
Zhang An smiled and said:
"Stop complaining. If you don't want to go, you can go back now. But don't blame me for not reminding you. Be careful and you will regret it to death."
As soon as these words were said, the three of them immediately fell silent. If they didn't go, they would regret it to death...
What is so mysterious about it.
At this time, Zhang An remembered what the dean had just said, and called all the academicians in the hospital who were focusing on nuclear fusion technology to come over to visit the nuclear fusion ignition experiment.
After studying for so long, although I have not conquered it, the hard work and hard work I have put in is real.
Being able to see with one's own eyes the controllable nuclear fusion reactor ignited on the land of Dragon Kingdom is a different kind of comfort.
After a while, several people got off the car together.
Since Zhang An has been here several times, he is naturally familiar with the roads.
Soon, Xu Zhou and Liu Zhongmin were found in an experimental warehouse prepared for experiments.
The three middle-aged academicians behind Zhang An immediately smiled and said hello after seeing the two of them.
Liu Zhongmin smiled and said:
"Okay, everyone is here, and the experiment is ready to begin."
Xu Zhou nodded and smiled:
"No problem, I'll ask the engineer to do the final inspection inside, and we'll start after making sure there's no equipment installed and no problems!"
At this time, one of the academicians named Huang Jiao said with some doubts:
"Dean, are you asking us to come here? Do you need any help?"
Liu Zhongmin was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhang An.
Zhang An smiled and shook his head to indicate that he didn't say anything.
"You kid..." Liu Zhongmin laughed dumbly.
"Since Zhang An hasn't told you yet, I might as well show you the experiments we are going to conduct next."
After saying that, Xu Zhou opened the door of the experimental hall and walked in first.
After a few people entered the hall and saw the huge device in the center of the hall, they immediately stood there with their jaws raised and did not move for a long time.
After more than ten seconds, Huang Jiao slowly said:
"This...isn't this a stellarator?!"
Zhang An smiled and nodded:
"Yes, today's experiment is to use a stellarator to successfully ignite a controllable nuclear fusion reactor!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, another academician named Dong Qiaolou immediately said angrily:
"Nonsense! This is nonsense! How can a stellarator be used as the core of a reactor? Who designed this plan? The stellarator is recognized as a plan that has been eliminated in the world!"
Liu Zhongmin and Xu Zhou were both stunned for a moment, not expecting the other party to react so violently.
It seems now that Zhang An's questioning at that time seemed much more restrained.
"Stellarators were recognized as being obsolete more than ten years ago and are no longer suitable as the core of controllable nuclear fusion. The mainstream device now should be the Tokmak device!"
"Doing this...isn't it a waste of energy and time!"
"Who designed it like this? You have no common sense, Dean!"
At this time Xu Zhou was a little embarrassed and said:
"Ahem, I actually designed it."
The scene fell into a trace of embarrassment.
The three of them had their toes broken now, and they all secretly cursed Dong Qiaolou for being a fool.
This is a visit to the Ark Academy of Sciences to observe experiments. Who else could it be if it wasn’t designed by Dean Xu.
In other words, even if someone below applies, it must be approved by Xu Zhou...
One sentence directly offended people to death!
But Xu Zhou didn't care about this, instead he smiled and said:
"Actually, you are right. The star simulator is currently considered obsolete, but that is because of material limitations."
Dong Qiaolou said a little embarrassedly:
"Dean Xu, I am not targeting you. The key point is that if you want to constrain ions in this stellarator, the best solution at present is to rely on magnetic field confinement."
"But the material used to produce the coil cannot withstand it at all. Unless we can develop room-temperature superconducting materials, the stellarator is destined to be inferior to the Tokmak device."
Xu Zhou still nodded in agreement, but then continued:
"So now that we have developed room-temperature superconducting materials, the theoretical possibility of a stellarator being successful is higher than that of a tokmak, isn't it?"
The three people in Dong Qiaolou stood there in confusion. Then you looked at me, I looked at you, and finally they all looked at Liu Zhongmin as if they were asking for help.
What did they just hear? Xu Zhou and others solved the problem of room temperature superconducting materials?
No no no!
This must be an auditory hallucination. Room-temperature superconductors have been a problem that has plagued many fields in the scientific research community for many years. Now they just heard Xu Zhou say three words calmly, and they have overcome it!
Liu Zhongmin coughed slightly, then pointed at Zhang An and said:
"Ask him."
Zhang An scratched his head in embarrassment, then smiled and said:
"Have I not come to Longke Academy much recently? Actually, I am cooperating with Dean Xu to study room-temperature superconducting materials. Of course, I am just here to help."
"Success?"
"Well, otherwise why would you use a stellarator?"
Dong Qiaolou continued to ask:
"Has it been verified? Is it really a superconducting material?"
Zhang An was not impatient either.
"It has been verified that superconducting properties exist from vacuum environment to standard atmospheric pressure."
The three of them suddenly took a breath of cold air. Huang Jiao even took a step back. His face was full of shock and then he looked at Zhang An with regret.
"Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang! You are not a human being. You didn't tell us such an important thing, and you actually let us know about it now!"
"Ah! I actually missed the birth of room-temperature superconducting materials, even if I was watching from the side!"
This is a historic breakthrough. A superconducting material that can operate normally from vacuum to standard atmospheric pressure does not require special conditions such as low temperature.
This is the first of its kind in the world. Once exposed, the field of materials science around the world will be shaken. I don’t know how many stagnant project leaders will be moved to tears!
Zhang An smiled awkwardly when he was told that, and then he had to look at Liu Zhongmin for help.
"Okay, okay. Didn't I specially notify you to come and witness when the fire was lit? Stop being pretentious."
The three of them immediately calmed down after hearing this.
"Well... although the coil problem has been solved, the material carrying nuclear fusion is still difficult to solve the high temperature problem..."
At this time, the third academician named Li Xun, who had been silent just now, asked curiously.
"Don't worry about this. Dean Xu has developed a new molecular material that can withstand the high temperatures during nuclear fusion."
"..."
Suddenly the three of them stopped talking.
Can you fix whatever is missing in the book?
Several problems that have plagued the scientific research community for many years have been overcome in the blink of an eye.
This feeling is like a group of junior high school students studying a high school difficult problem. After studying for a long time, they still can't understand it. At this time, a professor came over and solved the answer to the problem...
This is the feeling, it seems that Xu Zhou and them are not on the same level...
Seeing that the problem was almost solved, Xu Zhou clapped his hands and said:
"The engineers will finish the investigation soon, and then they will start the ignition experiment!"
"Wait a moment, everyone, get ready to witness history!"
Suddenly everyone was shocked, yes!
The birth of controllable nuclear fusion is definitely a turning point in human history.
From now on, humans will control endless energy!
"Using the power of technology to control the sun might have been a god in ancient times, right?"
"Why do I feel that the end of science is metaphysics..."
"I think it's the other way around. Could it be that the gods of the past are the remnants of the previous technological civilization?"
"Clear eyes are telescopes or monitoring equipment, ears are communication, and Thunder God and Lightning Mother have mastered power generation technology..."
While several people were communicating and waiting, the stellarator device was officially ready. All engineering staff left the hall after confirming that there were no problems.
At this time, Xu Zhou stood on the main console, looked at everyone and said slowly:
"Then the first ignition experiment of the controllable nuclear fusion of the Ark Academy of Sciences has officially begun!"
