"That's it! That's the best." Ning Qiaoqiao nodded,
"But those of us in astrophysics need beam channels across the solar system."
"What should I say, shouldn't what you need most be a large telescope?" Su Zhe asked with a smile. Although Ning Qiaoqiao is currently mainly working on the extreme difference microwave radiation spectrometer, Ning Qiaoqiao's main job is to study celestial bodies.
"We need beam channels across the solar system to accelerate the detectors, telescopes and other spacecraft we design." Ning Qiaoqiao explained,
"We have calculated that with a beam channel across the solar system, we can accelerate the spacecraft to half the speed of light. If the total mass is smaller, it can accelerate to close to the speed of light. Think about it, with such conditions, what will happen to us humans? How helpful is it to explore the universe beyond the solar system." Her scientific research team has designed a detector equipped with three simplified heavy photon aerospace engines with a total mass of one ton.
Its maximum acceleration is two hundred G. Accelerated by the beam channel between the Earth and the Moon, its maximum speed can reach 2,000 kilometers per second.
If we use a beam across the solar system to reach it, there will be no problem in accelerating it to close to the speed of light.
Just like now, there are a large number of detectors surrounding the sun, planets, satellites and other celestial bodies in the solar system. Almost all of these detectors are launched through this acceleration method.
Furthermore, many probes have flown out of the outer solar system and crossed the Oort cloud. With the close detection of these detectors, we have learned more and more about the celestial bodies in the solar system.
In her idea, a large number of detectors approaching the speed of light are launched to explore the outer space of the solar system.
This is of great help to mankind's understanding of the universe.
"Understood!" Su Zhe nodded and said with a smile,
"Actually, we had this idea when we were building a beam channel across the solar system. Not only detectors, but also the Penglai space city can be accelerated through long-distance beam channels." In fact, the beam channel across the solar system has Too many effects.
Under normal circumstances, this is just the main component of the solar system's beam channel transportation network. Just fly a spacecraft or something.
Or transmit some information. The next step is to accelerate the spacecraft. These are both civilian and scientific research aspects.
In fact, the beam channel can also be used for long-range strikes. Think about it, an object in the path of a beam accelerates to nearly the speed of light.
How destructive such an object can be. What can withstand the impact of this object. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire beam channel transportation network is a weapon.
"I guess you will also have such considerations." Ning Qiaoqiao nodded and said,
"Well, I noticed an internal document from your Jiutian Research Center, called the Proton Photography Project. Can you tell me about it?" Her scientific research team has an in-depth cooperative relationship with the Jiutian Research Center.
She has permission to see many internal documents of Jiutian Research Center. Similarly, staff at Jiutian Research Center can also see documents related to their scientific research team.
It’s just that the document called Proton Photography Project is not very detailed, only a few short sentences.
But these few words deeply attracted her. She is sensitive to the fact that if this proton photography project is really completed, it will be subversive to cosmology.
No, it’s subversive to everything.
"Uh! Senior sister, you actually noticed the document of the proton photography project." Su Zhe smiled,
"Senior Sister, if you want to listen, of course I am willing to talk about it. However, the proton photography project is still just a concept and needs further follow-up research in the future."
"I understand all this!" Ning Qiaoqiao looked at the big screen and said,
"There's about an hour left, please tell me quickly." In another hour, all five solar energy collection stations and two light energy transmission stations will arrive at their locations.
At that time, the final verification of the three-door plan began.
"Okay!" Su Zhe nodded and began to say,
"This proton photography project is actually about analyzing the information carried by photons captured by hydrogen atoms or hydrogen ions of a single proton. Photons are in..." Su Zhe told Ning Qiaoqiao what he said to Fan Xiaoming that day.
Ning Qiaoqiao listened very carefully. After Su Zhe's introduction, Ning Qiaoqiao said seriously: "It's feasible! It's completely feasible. Once successful, not only can we understand the entire history of human beings, the entire history of the earth, and even the history of the universe." As time goes by, movement of matter.
From a microscopic perspective, it is the movement of particles. Whether it's a lepton or a hadron. As long as particles move, they are bound to leave traces.
Just like when you are walking on the road, all the surrounding matter, or all particles, will more or less exchange information with you as you pass by.
To put it simply, the countless particles around you are like cameras, recording your every move.
The same is true when looking at the entire universe. Everything that happens in the universe is recorded by the particles around it photographing each other.
What they have to do now is decipher the information recorded in these particles. According to common sense, matter, that is, particles, can record information, but the more complex the particles themselves, the more difficult it is to analyze.
The research object chosen for the proton photography project is the hydrogen atom of a single proton, or hydrogen ions. This not only reduces the difficulty of its analysis.
The most critical thing is that hydrogen atoms with a single proton, or hydrogen ions, are ubiquitous and the most abundant in the universe.
It can be said that there are single proton hydrogen atoms or hydrogen ions in most spaces in the universe.
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said with a smile: "The current proton photography project is just a concept. To study the proton photography project, we need to open the proton and understand all about the proton. Only in this way can we promote the proton photography project." Research on the proton photography project There is a prerequisite, which is to understand all the information about the proton, or to understand the entire structure of the proton.
As far as the current research on the proton is concerned, it is composed of two up quarks and one down quark, and the up quark and down quark are now considered basic ions.
There are also relatively reasonable models for the structure composed of protons. This is where he is now.
To put it bluntly, there is still no very definite conclusion about protons, especially the composition of protons.
Still need to continue to study. For now, it cannot be said that the current proton structure model is definitely correct.
Furthermore, whether quarks are really basic ions, and whether they have smaller structures. After the proton absorbs the photon, where does the photon go and what effects does the photon receive?
There are many problems to be solved. In fact, if we really understand the proton completely, then high-energy physics will definitely achieve a comprehensive breakthrough.
The universe is no longer a secret to humans. In general, it is very difficult to realize the proton photography project, but it does not prevent people from continuing to study it.
"I know, it's just about opening the protons and studying them! Although it's very difficult, we can persevere." Ning Qiaoqiao smiled.
"Yes! Hold on." Su Zhe said seriously,
"It would be boring if a goal could be achieved easily."
"Yes! We want ambitious goals." Ning said quietly,
"With the development of science and technology, we humans will soon have no worries about food and clothing. So many people are always looking for something to do. From what I see, it won't be long before we humans do The most important thing is to study the unknown and explore the universe." With the development of science and technology, all human beings no longer have to worry about eating and drinking.
Even if all mankind were to lie down, there would still be no shortage of food and drink. But at that time, people couldn't really lie down.
We should continue to do scientific research and constantly explore the unknown. In her view, the vast majority of human beings should participate in scientific research instead of lying flat.
"Yes! I think so too." Su Zhe nodded and said,
"In the future, scientific research will be the driving force for employment."
"Yes! There is such a trend now." Ning Qiaoqiao said with certainty.
"The trend is like this." Su Zhe smiled,
"Actually, there are signs of this in China. In any case, the development of science and technology requires a large number of scientific researchers." At present, there is such a trend in China.
This is what everyone wants to see. Domestically, manufacturing will be replaced by automated and artificial intelligence factories.
In manufacturing factories like this, there will only be fewer and fewer front-line workers. Some are just maintenance staff at the back.
He believes that with the development of science and technology, these maintenance personnel will also be replaced by automation and artificial intelligence.
This is the manufacturing industry. As for agriculture and mining, etc., they will slowly be replaced by automation and artificial intelligence.
If there is something that cannot be replaced, it is probably the service industry. Finally, the field with the largest number of employees is probably scientific research.
"At that time, it will almost be full name for scientific research." Ning Qiaoqiao smiled.
"Yes! His full name is engaged in scientific research, which makes people excited just thinking about it." Su Zhe nodded and said,
"But having said that, even if we engage in comprehensive scientific research, compared with the unsolved mysteries of the universe, there are still fewer of us involved in scientific research."
"Relatively speaking, it's a little less, but it's not something we can decide." Ning Qiaoqiao smiled and said,
"By the way! I have been thinking about a problem during this period, which is the problem of telescopes. I just heard you talk about the proton photography project, and I have new ideas." While saying this, her brain has been thinking With something else.
To be honest, the proton photography project has inspired her a lot. It reminded her of the telescope issue that she had been thinking about before.
"Telescope... tell me about your new idea." Su Zhe was a little curious. He loves hearing new ideas best.
Often major discoveries start with an idea. For now, going from zero to one is the hardest.
And between zero and one, the most important thing is new ideas. Ning Qiaoqiao nodded and said seriously: "In terms of a simple telescope, it concentrates more photons into a small area. Finally, the photons enter the human eye, and the photons are imaged on the retina of the human eye. Finally, this The information is transmitted to the brain." Simply put, these photons carry certain information.
When these photons pass through the telescope, the information carried by the photons does not change. In the entire process, the telescope is just a tool for transmission, and the human eye is the decoder of the information carried by these photons.
Interpret the information carried by photons into something that humans can understand.
"That's right!" Su Zhe nodded.
"Another example is the survey telescopes in space. In fact, they are all the same. They concentrate photons to decode the information carried by the photons." Ning Qiaoqiao said,
"Let me put it this way! In fact, these decodings of the information carried by photons are based on us humans and are the most primitive decoding solutions. In fact, we have not analyzed much of the information carried by photons." What she said It's not a bluff.
Photons carry a lot of information. The human eye is the most primitive in analyzing the information carried by photons.
"Yes! I agree with this." Su Zhe nodded and said,
"Every time a photon changes its motion state, the information it carries is also covered. If we know the environment that changes its motion state, we can analyze the layer of covered information." A photon initially has a basic attribute state Yes, it can also be said that the photon has basic information from the beginning.
Affected by the environment, the attribute state of the photon changes. At this time, the basic information carried by photons is covered.
If we know the factors affecting the environment, we can deduce the basic attribute state of photons. This also means that the basic information carried by photons can be known by analyzing the basic attribute states of photons.
In fact, this principle is used in proton photography engineering. As its photons fly through the environment, its attribute state will also change accordingly, which also records the surrounding environment information.
Then, the photon flew into the proton and was bound by the proton. Although the photon's attribute state changes after entering the proton.
We only need to know the attribute state of protons and photons at this time. It can analyze the attribute state of the photon before entering the proton, and naturally also analyze the information carried by the photon.
In this case, if you know the last attribute state of the photon, you know the environmental factors that cause each attribute state change.
The multiple layers of information carried by the photons will be analyzed layer by layer. In this way, it is naturally possible to analyze the initial attribute state of the photon, which is the basic information that the photon originally carried.
Looking at it this way, we can trace the origin of the universe. Some people may say that the environmental factors that change the attribute state of photons can all be known, especially if the attribute state of photons changes multiple times, which means that the information carried by photons has been covered multiple times.
How is it possible to analyze the most basic attribute state of photons in this way? In fact, this can be analyzed continuously and repeatedly.
Create countless sets of environmental factors in the virtual universe. Use these environmental factors to continue to crack.
This is equivalent to cracking the password, which is to use the exhaustive method. Keep trying. As long as you have enough computing power, you can always parse some useful information.
If you are lucky, you may not be able to analyze the initial basic attribute state of the photon. Of course, this method requires a huge amount of computing power.
And we must continue to build new environmental factor models. Anyway, this is a direction.
