Time is long, in the blink of an eye, it is more than sixty years, and now it has reached the 381st year of the flood calendar.
In these decades, the Flood Barren Empire has developed unhurriedly, the brilliant X001 base has successively introduced tens of millions of witch talents, and the entire X001 Planet Research Base is full.
At the same time, the 6G networks of the other two planets have also begun to be built, and it is planned to build the same large-scale research bases as Planet X001, when the Flood Empire will have three giant bases and more than 100 million researchers, which is a huge number.
“Superconductor material technology has made a breakthrough.” A piece of news made waves in the online world.
How important superconductor technology is, as long as those who understand science and technology know that this is a key technology related to energy technology.
The virtual reality technology and robot technology of the Flood Empire are booming, and the transmission speed of network technology is getting stronger and stronger, constantly reaching new highs, but energy technology is almost stagnant, only battery technology is improving with difficulty, and there has been no essential change in these years, all of which are using the chemical energy in high-energy compounds to convert into electricity.
But superconductor technology is different, it can achieve nuclear fusion, which is a milestone event in the history of science and technology.
Nuclear fusion is the ladder for civilization to enter the next stage, and successful nuclear fusion means that humans can leave the stars and survive alone in the cold space.
So what exactly is nuclear fusion?
The problem is very complicated, there are some places in the universe that are beyond our comprehension, nuclear fusion reaction is one of them, the essence of nuclear fusion reaction is the conversion of matter into energy.
Everything in the world is made up of energy, which is very condensed and follows the mass-energy equation.
The mass-energy equation states that the mass of any object must decrease after releasing energy, and any energy reaction in the world is mass into energy, or energy into mass.
For example, this question:
“Does one pound of salt dissolved in one pound of water get two pounds of total weight?”.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of a pound of salt and a pound of water together must be two pounds, and the quality of salt dissolved in water has not disappeared, but the sodium chloride molecules are dissolved in the water, and 1 pound of water can only dissolve up to 180 grams of salt, so the final quality of a pound of water and a pound of salt is 680 grams, and the remaining insoluble salt will precipitate to the bottom.
From the perspective of lifting the bar, one pound of salt and one pound of water did not produce two pounds of salt water in the end, but the quality of the brine plus the quality of salt is still two pounds.
If you go a little deeper, a pound of salt and a pound of water fused at room temperature will always radiate energy outward, and the mass-energy equation tells us that the mass of any object must decrease after releasing energy.
Therefore, one kilogram of salt dissolved in one kilogram of water does not get two kilograms of total weight, and the final mass of these two kilograms of salt and water must be less than two kilograms.
This conclusion has been confirmed by scientists in the Flood Barren Empire.
In this universe, there was originally only energy, and at the beginning of the birth of the universe, I don’t know what caused the birth of huge energy, and these energies are so huge that it can become a heaven and earth.
According to the Flood World, this energy is the Qi of Chaos, but how the Qi of Chaos came from is another unknown question.
We don’t care how the energy comes from, because before Pangu opened the world, the Qi of Chaos filled the entire primordial universe.
As Pangu opened the world, the Chaotic Qi suddenly exploded, generating a lower level of energy, and constantly stretching the universe apart.
At the beginning, the universe was full of explosive energy, and as the temperature of the primordial universe gradually cooled and the pressure gradually decreased, this energy gradually formed hydrogen, which is the simplest substance.
In nature, hydrogen will slowly form a gas mass when gathered together, the larger the air mass and the stronger the pressure generated by gravity, if the gravity reaches the limit value, the hydrogen atoms will collide with two hydrogen atoms because of too much pressure, and then release huge energy.
This energy is released in the form of photons, and a huge amount of photons will produce huge light pressure, making the internal pressure of the hydrogen mass greater, and the result will be continuous nuclear fusion.
Hydrogen is converted into helium by fusion inside the star, a reaction that releases energy in the form of photons, and the light pressure cancels out the gravitational pull towards the star’s interior, so the star remains stable.
Nuclear fusion is continuous, hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, which are elements that stars can synthesize, and the latter element synthesis needs to be generated in neutron stars.
Having said all this, it just shows that the essence of nuclear fusion is to merge atomic nuclei with high pressure, and there are two situations in the merger process, one is to lose mass and burst energy, and the other is to increase mass and absorb energy.
The fusion of small nuclei into large nuclei releases energy, and fusion can only occur up to iron atoms.
The fission of large nuclei into small nuclei also emits energy until iron atoms are generated, and iron is like a stabilizing tool specially designed by the Creator God, whether it is nuclear fusion or nuclear fission.
The nucleus of iron is relatively stable, from unstable state to stable state needs to lose mass, release energy, from steady state to unstable state will increase mass and absorb energy.
Small-mass stars like the Sun, due to mass limitations, cannot produce heavier elements than carbon through fusion, so once helium is depleted, nuclear fusion stops, and the Sun becomes a white dwarf and then slowly cools.
But if the star is 8 to 25 times the mass of the sun, fusion will go on forever, producing heavier elements.
When hydrogen is depleted, helium begins to burn and produce carbon; After helium is depleted, carbon begins to burn and form neon; When the carbon is depleted, neon begins to burn, and nuclear fusion continues like a chain until iron is formed.
Iron fusing into heavier elements takes more energy than it emits, so fusion can only go so far.
Once fusion stops, the light pressure can no longer resist the strong gravitational pull, and the outer layer of the star collapses inward in less than a second, and the material hits the hard core at high speed, and then violently bounces off to form a spectacular supernova explosion.
At this time, the core will collapse gravitationally, and the star will become a white dwarf, which is a very dense and stable plasma star.
White dwarfs will continue to absorb external mass, if their core reaches 1.44 to 3 times the mass of the Sun, that is, beyond the Chandrasekhar limit, the collapse will continue, the density will increase sharply, at this time electrons and protons will be squeezed to form neutrons, and the matter in the star is almost entirely composed of neutrons.
After that, a huge neutron pressure will be generated throughout the star’s body, which will fight gravity and prevent further collapse, and finally reach equilibrium again, so that the resulting celestial body is called a “neutron star”.
Neutron stars are a fate for stellar decay, and they are denser objects than white dwarfs, which can be hundreds of millions of times denser than white dwarfs.
The essence of a neutron star is a huge nucleus, that is, this is a huge atom, if the neutron star rotates at high speed will become a pulsar, it undergoes a complex energy conversion process under high-speed rotation to produce radiation, pulsar radiation energy by consuming its rotation energy, so its rotation will gradually slow down, resulting in a slow and longer radiation cycle.
Neutron stars continue to absorb external mass, and if its mass reaches more than 25 times that of the sun, its core will become a black hole, and the black hole is actually rotating at high speed, and the center will release a powerful column of energy, which is the evaporation of the black hole.
If the black hole absorbs external mass, then the total mass continues to increase, reaching a pressure limit, and eventually the black hole will explode, re-releasing infinite energy, and the energy will be converted into hydrogen again.
Part of the mass of the black hole is transformed into energy, and part of the matter will be ejected, decaying into high-density heavy metal substances, gold, silver and other heavy metals are born from the black hole explosion.
If the mass of the star exceeds 100 times that of the sun, in a supernova explosion, the star will be almost dead and the mass will be released as photons.
Soon after the birth of the universe, there were many supermassive stars with a mass of hundreds or even thousands of times the sun in space, which are composed of pure hydrogen and pure helium, these giant beasts have extremely short lifespans, and the energy generated during the explosion is very terrifying, which will convert the entire mass of the star into photons, and the power of this universe is very terrifying, and the gods can be killed.
This is only the case in nature, if the external pressure is strong enough, any matter can be nuclear fusion, and eventually fusion into chaotic qi.
Elements above iron are born because of stronger nuclear fusion, which occurs inside neutron stars, and many elements are born because neutron stars collide to produce explosions and materials are thrown into the universe, such as heavy metal elements and nuclear radioactive elements.
A more advanced energy civilization is to control nuclear fusion technology, and the ultimate technology can turn all mass into energy, let energy become quality, more powerful than gods.
Why is the flood land so huge and so massive without explosion?
Experts in the universe of the Flood Empire speculate that this is because there is pressure in space-time in the universe, and if matter goes out of the universe and loses the pressure of space-time, all matter will become photons and release, which is also an important reason why ordinary people cannot get out of the universe.
The flood world is a young new universe, and the pressure of space-time is very large, resulting in the terrifying celestial body of the flood barren land, but the pressure of space-time will lead to the expansion of the universe, resulting in less pressure in space-time.
If the pressure of space-time decreases to a certain level one day, the entire flood will explode into pure energy, and the energy will form hydrogen atoms, and finally form a starry sky, which is the fate of the universe.
