Chapter 530 NN-232
Under the latest neutrino imaging microscope, even quark-level particles can be seen clearly, as for atomic nuclei.

Huang Haojie readjusted the observation accuracy of the microscope to the atomic nucleus level, and finally saw the state of the black matter clearly.

For pure neutron materials, since there are no outer electrons, the gap between neutron nuclei and neutron nuclei is very small. The piece of neutron material the size of a fingernail in front of him has an astonishing mass of 1867 kilograms. The extent is simply tingling.

"This is due to the neutron nucleus composed of 232 neutrons, called NN-232, which is the second neutron material discovered in our laboratory that can exist stably." Li wanted to click on a holographic simulated atomic nucleus (center Subnuclei) model says.

"How long is the decay period?" Huang Haojie asked while observing.

"23.7."

"What are its specific characteristics?"

"Solids have no melting point and no conductivity themselves, but when NN232 comes into contact with other substances, it will excite a strong magnetic state. After contacting iron elements, the magnetic field generated is the largest, which is about 1400 times that of rubidium magnets."

"No melting point?" Huang Haojie asked a question.

"In fact, it is more appropriate to say that it cannot be melted. We have raised the temperature to 4500 billion degrees Celsius, but this temperature cannot produce a fusion effect on the substance composed of NN232. It is still solid." Li Xiang explained.

"Neutron ionization of NN-8-1 tried?"

Li Xiang replied directly: "I tried it, but it didn't work. Neutron ionization has no effect on NN232 at all, because NN232 itself has no electron shell, and neutron ionization cannot make it plasma."

Huang Haojie took NN232 to a non-magnetic laboratory made of anti-magnetic materials. If it weren't for the genetic armor, he really couldn't afford this fingernail-sized NN232.

Gently put NN232 into the special spherical container, after pressing the switch, some iron pieces are inserted around the spherical container.

Suddenly a strong magnetism appeared in the laboratory, why Huang Haojie could feel it, not only because his body's five senses are very sharp after genetic enhancement, but more importantly, his whole body is now attracted to the spherical container.

What's even more frightening is that even in a non-magnetic laboratory, the walls, ceiling, floor, workbench, etc. are trembling slightly, as if tempted by the whispers of the devil, they are involuntarily trying to get closer to the spherical container.

Huang Haojie immediately activated the genetic armor to change the magnetism of his body, which made it a little easier. If ordinary people were sucked, they might explode and die in an instant. The activity is the same, it took 20 minutes to get out of the distance of 4 meters.

"Very powerful!" Li Xiang asked standing at the door.

Huang Haojie glanced at the spherical container in the laboratory: "How did you feel when you experimented for the first time?"

"Four broken ribs and a ruptured liver." Li Xiang answered lightly.

"Be careful, don't die before you finish your mission. After all, the brain is injured, but it is very troublesome, and it may even lead to brain death." Huang Haojie reminded.

"I know, but sometimes the situation in the laboratory is caught off guard." Li Xiang didn't care too much.

Huang Haojie knew that this guy was used to being heartless, so he turned around and continued to think about the application of NN232. If this thing is applied to mass projectors and electromagnetic guns, the effect should be good.

As for other applications, it may be used on the armor of space battleships, but this strong magnetism is a problem. If it is hit by an iron projectile or a spaceship, the NN232 material will become a problem instead.

"Li Xiang, what solutions do you have for the strong magnetic properties of NN232 when it encounters iron, such as how to solve it when it does not need magnetism? How to solve it when it needs magnetism?" Huang Haojie turned his head and asked.

"Our solution is ... no."

"..." Huang Haojie looked at this guy speechlessly.

"If you want to use strong magnetic properties, you can just build an iron container directly. As for those that don't need strong magnetic properties, do you want to apply it to the armor of battleships?" Li Xiang said that I see through you.

Huang Haojie nodded: "I do have plans to apply NN232 to battleship armor. As long as a layer of neutron-core-thick NN232 material is used to manufacture battleship armor, it is equivalent to an upgraded version of the condensed matter shield."

"I can't do anything for the time being, you can find a way to solve it yourself!" Li Xiang spread his hands and replied.

"Okay! I'll let others find a way to solve this problem. Tell me about other features! This thing won't just have a strong magnetic property, right?" Huang Haojie continued.

Li Xiang clicked on the holographic projection and continued to introduce to Huang Haojie: "It also has several very important characteristics, one is barrier property, the currently known electromagnetic waves cannot penetrate the material composed of NN232, whether it is long-wave short-wave microwave, or It is said that high-energy beta rays, gamma rays, or neutrinos that are difficult to stop cannot penetrate the NN232 material."

"This feature is good, and the Institute of Photon Engines may be able to use it." Huang Haojie's eyes lit up.

"Another property: neutrino radiation."

"Neutrino radiation? Is it caused by the decay of NN232?" Huang Haojie understood what this characteristic was when he heard it.

Li Xiang nodded: "Neutrino radiation is caused by the decay of NN232. The last characteristic is: neutron nucleus disintegration."

"Nuclear disintegration? Let's talk about this characteristic in detail." Huang Junjie asked with interest.

Li Xiang explained: "Nuclear disintegration, as the name implies, means that the NN232 material will release all neutrons after the half-life ends, referred to as neutron nuclear disintegration. In fact, special methods can be used to stimulate the NN232 material to occur in advance. Subnuclear disintegration."

"Are the disintegration conditions complicated?"

"Of course it's complicated, and it can only be done in the laboratory for the time being."

"Okay! Everything is difficult at the beginning, and we will continue to work hard." Huang Haojie also knows that scientific research is not smooth sailing. After all the citizens of the alliance have undergone genetic enhancement, many scientific and technological fields are now developing explosively.

For example, Li wanted to lead low-cost room temperature superconductors before, and completed the mass production process in November 2. Now the production cost of room temperature superconductors has been reduced to about 11 yuan per kilogram.

It was precisely because of the completion of the room temperature superconductor project that Li Xiang came to work in the Institute of Condensed Matter Materials.

Li Xiang suddenly said: "In fact, our research institute has also developed a semi-stable neutron material - NN48, but the stability of this material is too poor, and the half-life at normal temperature and pressure is only about 17 hours. .”

Huang Haojie called up the experiment log of the Institute of Condensed Matter Materials, and soon looked up the relevant information of NN48. Suddenly, the more he looked at it, the more useful it became.

The characteristics of NN48 and NN232 are very similar, that is, the strong magnetic properties of iron are only about 169 times that of rubidium magnets; the existence time is also very short, only 17.4 hours; but it has a very big advantage - easy to prepare.With the current level of technology of Human Revolutionary Union, it can be mass-produced.

Huang Haojie quickly saved this document and forwarded another copy to the Mass Projector Research Institute.

If NN48 can be made into projectiles and used on electromagnetic guns, it can not only increase the speed of the projectiles, but also increase the strength of the projectiles. After all, the NN48 material will not disintegrate so easily before the half-life is over.

The most important thing is that the neutron nuclear disintegration characteristics of the NN48 material, once it hits the opponent's warship, and the neutron nuclear disintegration suddenly occurs inside, it is equivalent to a neutron mushroom egg exploding inside.
