Chapter 944 The Danshui crisis that plagued human survival and development has been completely resolved!
To be honest, Qin Ke's team only theoretically verified the feasibility of this "radioactive element harmlessness" experimental plan. There are still many subtle uncertainties at the operational level, especially since the entire experiment involves different frequencies.
For strong and weak laser irradiation, switching needs to be accurate to the millisecond level, and the energy density needs to be accurate to 0.1J/cm2.
This makes the precision and accuracy of experimental restoration affect the experimental results to a considerable extent.
Therefore, after asking Academician Ji Xingming from Qingmu and Academician Du Jianzhang from Yanda University to conduct the experiment, Qin Ke also thought about observing and following the experiment himself in order to obtain ideal experimental results in the shortest time.
However, considering that the experiment had certain radioactive risks, academicians Ji and Du were determined not to let Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun get close to the laboratory. Qin Ke could only regretfully give up this plan, and then he decided to return to Yuanzhou for a "vacation"
"Itinerary.
At this moment, listening to Academician Ji Xingming Nayou's excited words with a tone of disbelief, Qin Ke also perked up: "Academician Ji, where is your experimental report? Send me a copy as soon as you get it."
"My assistants are still sorting out all the experimental procedures and data. The detailed report will not come out until evening. I will send it to you and Academician Ning as soon as possible after it comes out. Then only if we verify the repeatability of this experiment, then we can
It is announced that the problem of 'harmless radioactive elements' has been completely solved!" Academician Ji Xingming's voice was so excited that he did not look like a man in his forties or fifties.
In fact, Academician Ji Xingming is indeed in an extremely excited state right now.
Cesium-137 is the most important radioactive cesium isotope produced by fission. Its half-life is about 30 years, and it can completely disappear for up to 300 years. Due to its radiotoxicity, once cesium-137 in the environment is absorbed by the human body, it will cause harmful effects on the human body.
Hazard. In the detection of environmental pollution caused by nuclear explosions or nuclear accidents, cesium-137 is one of the key radioactive elements to be detected.
But now, that piece of cesium-137 metal, which was no more than the size of a fingernail and could detect strong beta and gamma radiation before the experiment, was safely in the palm of his hand.
After strictly following the experiment and undergoing dozens of special laser irradiation treatments, this piece of cesium-137 metal actually no longer decays, nor does it turn into cesium-135 or cesium-134!
This simply subverts Academician Ji Xingming’s previous theoretical system on radioactive elements. You must know that the nuclei of radioactive elements are unstable. In order to achieve a stable state, the nuclei of radioactive elements will release energy or particles in different ways, thereby converting into other nuclei or isotopes. This
It's decay.
Decay is a random event. Any radioactive element may decay in the next second, or it may decay after 1 billion years. As for the half-life, it describes only a probability.
Now the cesium-137 metal is actually in a stable state. It obviously does not emit beta particles and positrons. Protons are not converted into neutrons, and neutrons are not converted into protons. This is because its nucleus has gained or lost some energy.
Has it become stable? Or has the probability of half-life become infinitesimally small?
Although he has conducted hundreds of experiments himself, Academician Ji Xingming still has not been able to understand why such incredible results can be achieved through such experiments, let alone the principles.
But it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, facts speak louder than words!
The seemingly impossible experiment of "harmless radioactive elements" was really successful in his hands!
As a scientific researcher, what is more gratifying than witnessing the success of a great experiment that may affect the process of human civilization? Not to mention that this experiment was completed by his own team! Even if the experimental plan was not from him
Hands, but as an experimenter, his name is enough to be recorded in history forever!
"Academician Qin, the experimental plan you gave us is perfect. We have failed almost a hundred times before, all because some details could not fully and accurately implement your experimental plan. This time we have accumulated enough experience and every detail has reached
It was perfect, and the experiment was a success!”
Academician Ji Xingming rambled for a while before ending the call. He still wanted to continue observing the cesium-137 metal in his hand and review the entire experiment.
Ning Qingyun was sitting next to Qin Ke and could hear clearly, with an excited look in her eyes.
"Academician Ji's experiment of 'reducing the probability of decay to infinitesimal' was successful!"
"Yeah, I don't know how the experiment of 'increasing the decay probability to 100%' by Academician Du is going." Qin Ke thought for a while and decided to call Academician Du Jianzhang of Yanda University.
The experimental plan is actually divided into two parts, one is to reduce the probability of decay, and the other is to increase the probability of decay, both of which change the half-life.
In fact, Academician Ji Xingming cannot understand it because he has a strong academic level and strong thinking inertia, and cannot easily achieve cognitive "innovation".
It is not difficult to understand. Since Newton studied gravity and even universal gravitation, it has become common sense that objects on the earth have gravity, just like "water flows downwards." People believe that universal gravitation is an unchanging truth, the true meaning of the universe, and universal gravitation.
The formula can explain the motion trajectories of all celestial bodies.
However, with the observation that the orbital period of Mercury does not match the calculated orbital period of gravity, and the discovery of "black holes", the gravity that was considered to be "the one that can explain the operation of everything in the world" was pulled off the altar.
Then Einstein proposed the general theory of relativity. He believed that time and space are soft and can be stretched and flattened. He believed that gravity and time are equal. The faster the speed, the greater the gravity, and the slower time will be.
, he also explained that the reason why the earth revolves around the sun is not due to "universal gravity" at all, but because something with mass will bend the space. Things close to this thing with mass will enter an incline and start around it.
change.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although Einstein’s theory can explain many phenomena that cannot be explained by gravity, it was not until 2015 that a gravitational wave from 1.3 billion light-years away was detected for the first time—
- This gravitational wave was produced by the collision of two black holes, which proved Einstein's prediction, indicating that space is really soft and can fluctuate. Einstein's general theory of relativity also officially ascended to the altar.
became the new truth.
At this point, mankind's understanding of the universe has ushered in an "innovation", which spans more than 400 years.
However, Einstein's general theory of relativity also has flaws. It cannot explain singularities - singularities are things with infinite mass - Einstein's theory of relativity cannot calculate infinite things, and it cannot explain black holes. With the advent of technology,
As development becomes faster and faster, the time for these "truths" to be pushed off the altar will become shorter and shorter.
It's a bit far-fetched.
Qin Ke actually solves the problem of decay probability from the perspective of space-time dimensions, such as spreading the decay to more dimensions, making the probability of it happening in the current dimension infinitely smaller. This is a theory born out of "gravity waves"
.Gravity is a super strong force. Light will be sucked by a black hole, but gravity waves can be transmitted from the black hole, and the black hole cannot retain them. However, gravity is the weakest force, and it can only be felt when the mass contrast is very different.
For example, humans can feel the gravity of the planet under their feet, but human gravity can only attract dust particles that are too small to be distinguished by the naked eye.
The root cause is that gravity is the only force among the four basic forces that can penetrate dimensions. Since it works in all dimensions, it is dispersed, so the gravity felt in our dimension is very small.
Qin Ke adopted a similar approach, but this theory is too beyond the current "cognition". It is not surprising that Academician Ji Xingming cannot understand it better.
Not only Academician Ji Xingming, but also Academician Du Jianzhang cannot understand it either.
When Qin Ke called, he was nervously leading a team to conduct a "reproduction experiment". He successfully completed the experiment two days earlier than Academician Ji Xingming, but the experiment at that time had certain fluke factors. Academician Du Jianzhang did not
To determine whether the "expected experimental results" occurred due to accidental factors, you must conduct a "reproduction" yourself.
His experiment was to take tritium gas, which originally had a half-life of 12.5 years, and make it all decay into helium 3 instantly through the experiment. Its decay rate can be judged by the intensity of beta rays.
Of course, Academician Du Jianzhang does not need to do the experiment himself, but he has to follow the entire process and observe the generation of various data in real time to determine whether the entire process is correct and meets the accuracy requirements in the experimental plan. Naturally, such a tense laboratory does not allow mobile phones to be carried
Entry - Any sudden electromagnetic waves may affect the high-speed moving electrons released during the decay process, thereby affecting the results of the experiment.
The busy experiment came to an end at around three o'clock in the afternoon. The "reproduction experiment" achieved real success and eliminated some of the "accidental factors" that were considered to be influential. It finally proved that the experimental plan itself was correct!
Listening to the excited cheers of everyone in the laboratory, Academician Du Jianzhang breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead due to nervousness, and could not hide the ecstatic look on his face.
It has actually been achieved to make radioactive elements decay in advance and release energy. For example, gamma rays can trigger the decay of other atomic nuclei. However, if we want to achieve the instantaneous decay of radioactive elements with 100% accuracy like Qin Ke's experimental plan, it is still a matter of physics.
It is an amazing miracle in the academic world. Its significance to human medicine, industry, energy and even the understanding of the universe will never be smaller than controlling nuclear fission!
It wasn't until the carnival mood of everyone in the laboratory was slowly vented that Academician Du Jianzhang's assistant came in and explained the phone call from Academician Qin.
Academician Du Jianzhang did not dare to neglect. He asked the researchers to be responsible for the follow-up matters. He hurriedly took off his full set of protective equipment, checked the personal radiation measurement device he was wearing according to the laboratory regulations, and returned it. All procedures were completed, and when he came back again
By the time we arrived at the office, nearly 15 minutes had passed.
He picked up his cell phone and quickly called back. Now he was finally convinced by the two young men, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun. Even if he had done experiments all his life, he had never seen an experimental plan that could be so accurate.
.It can be said that except for very subtle adjustments that need to be made due to the temporary replacement of experimental equipment, the detailed parameters of all the remaining steps are all correct.
This is also the main reason why this experiment was successful.
It's really amazing. Who would have thought that two young people who had never conducted high-precision radioactive experiments could write such a high-accuracy program just by relying on the huge experimental materials and data he provided, combined with self-developed theories.
experimental plan?
Even if he may have received assistance from Edward Witten, a great physicist from the United States, in the process of writing the experimental plan, it was enough to make Academician Du Jianzhang amazed. After all, he had confirmed the two people's opinions on this experimental plan in person last time.
The understanding and cognition are both at a first-rate level.
Academician Du Jianzhang attached great importance to the call from Qin Ke, and he wanted to report the good news and take credit, so as soon as the call was connected, he started talking like a machine gun: "Hello, Academician Qin, I heard that you called me before?
Sorry, I have been doing experiments just now, and I was just trying to tell you the good news. The latest experiment was very successful..."
After listening to Academician Du Jianzhang eagerly recount the recent two experiments, especially the success of this "reproduction experiment", he picked out some key parts on the phone. Qin Ke encouraged Academician Du again and again with a smile on his face, asking him to
The experiment report will be issued as soon as possible, and he and Ning Qingyun will come to thank Yunyun in person two days later.
After ending the call, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun excitedly high-fived their hands again.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The experiment of the two academicians achieved results faster than expected, which also means that the "nuclear sewage problem" can have a perfect solution, and the rest is
Just carry out industrial design and create an instrument that can make radioactive elements in nuclear sewage non-radioactive.
This is not very difficult. The main devices are various laser exciters, which are safe and reliable. There are already relevant equipment on the market, and it only requires certain assembly and optimization.
A rough estimate of the equipment cost is about 10 million yuan. Including the annual operation and maintenance costs, it is only 30 million yuan. For a nuclear power plant, a processing cost of 30 million yuan can save nuclear power in units of 100 million yuan.
Nuclear water, nuclear waste treatment, and burial costs! Japan should and will be happy to adopt such a low-cost method that is generally recognized by the international community to replace the irresponsible practice of "one in a row".
For the nuclear sewage that Japan has discharged, it is also possible to temporarily install such instruments at its outlet and at locations with higher concentrations to reduce the harm as much as possible. However, Qin Ke has no idea about the issue of nuclear sewage in Japan.
I plan to go and inquire in person again. The country has the "radioactive element detoxification instrument" developed by his team and will naturally handle it properly.
Qin Ke is more concerned about how to add such instruments to all seawater desalination and purification plants at a lower cost to achieve harmless treatment of radioactive elements in water quality and ensure the safety and cleanliness of freshwater resources.
These are left to the Yuanzhou Qingning New Energy and Freshwater Resources Recycling Technology Research Center, which strives to promote the use of the "Qingning Technology New Energy and Water Desalination and Purification Integrated Technology Solution 2.0" in coastal areas across the country starting next year.
"The large-scale seawater desalination and purification plant with patented technology provides sufficient, clean fresh water resources at a low cost and is connected to the tap water supply network to alleviate the ongoing drought across the country in the next few years.
As for other countries that want to apply for this patent, they can provide it at a lower price.
Water shortage is a serious problem that the whole world will face, and it may even lead to war and chaos due to the fight for fresh water resources. In order to unite the world's forces as much as possible to resist and resolve this extreme global climate change that is related to the survival of mankind.
In a crisis, Qin Ke doesn't mind doing more. Anyway, money is just a number to him. If this difficulty cannot be overcome, human society will collapse and all wealth will be wiped out.
No matter what, the fresh water crisis that has plagued human survival and development has been completely solved!
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun exchanged their future research plans in a low voice while drinking fruit tea. The two planned to focus most of their energy on the study of climate variability from September.
At this moment, the ground suddenly shook, and the cup filled with tea seemed to be shaking.
Qin Ke felt as if the ground beneath his feet was suspended in the air for a moment, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind:
Chapter completed!
