Scholar’s Starry Sea

"Have you participated in IPhO with him?" Leonard was a little surprised after hearing Aiden's words. Physics is walking down this road, and it’s not surprising to come to participate in this competition."

"Mr. Leonard, what I discussed with you is that it’s strange that he is here? I want to express It’s that this Chinese man should stand on the podium and start his show instead of competing on the same stage with us!"

"Are you psychologically overshadowed by him? Even if he is yours The champion of this year does not mean that you will win this time. Don't worry, buddy will help you win it back this time." Leonard finished patted Aiden's shoulder and gave it to me.

But Aiden rolled his eyes, "Do you understand what I'm talking about? Do you think I panic like this is just because he won the IPhO championship? After that match, I knew that this guy named Wu Bin was definitely a monster of the Demon King level, so I paid special attention to him later, and guess what kind of feat he accomplished in his freshman year."

"噫~ Do you still follow his news?" Leonard took a subconsciously step back, and the look in Aiden's eyes was strange.

Ayden decisively moved towards Leonard and raised his middle finger, and then said: "This guy posted "ScienceAdvances" in his freshman year, or is it a cover article, do you dare to believe it?"

"Science!?" Leonard was shocked, "This is too enchanting."

After marveling, Leonard looked at the Wu Bin that Aiden pointed out to him just now. , I felt that a strong aura suddenly burst out of him.

"So." Aiden patted Leonard's shoulder, "Understand my kind of game hasn't started yet, but do I feel like I've lost it?"

"F***" Leonard also collapsed.

……

Wu Bin, who didn't know that he had broken the mentality of a team before the game started, took his teammates into the computer room and began to download the topics of the game.

[Solar Sail Fire Star Journey]

[Ion Thruster]

"Sure enough, they are all topics that must go to heaven..." Zheng Wenhan finished reading the topic Then swallowed saliva.

Because this competition is sponsored by the United States Astronomical Agency, they have long thought that there will be a high probability of going to the sky. But in general, they are still preparing for the Rockets. So now Looking at the two questions, I was still confused.

"A new weapon..." Bo Jiasheng couldn't help but explode.

After waiting for the ignorance, discomfort, and helplessness, etc., after a series of negative emotions passed, Bo Jiasheng and Zheng Wenhan couldn't help turning their heads and looked towards Wu Bin. Their eyes were so helpless.

"Why, let me choose?" Wu Bin asked, pointing to himself.

"Big brother, please." Two people moved towards Wu Bin at the same time, bending down and making a please gesture.

So Wu Bin rubbed his chin and read both questions completely.

Solar sails and ion thrusters, these two things are regarded as the products of science fiction into reality. Among them, ion thrusters are used to solve the problem that traditional Chemistry rockets must carry a large amount of fuel, which leads to a rocket launch weight. Most of them are fuel inefficiency problems.

The solar sail is trying to find a new way for humans to navigate the universe.

After struggling for a long time, Wu Bin felt that the problem of solar sails was more interesting, so he turned around and asked two teammates: "I want to choose solar sails, what about you?"

" The sun sails are good." Silk Jiasheng immediately gave a thumbs up.

"Well, I think it's good too." Zheng Wenhan also immediately followed.

"That's it." Wu Bin waved his hand and decided.

Thousands of years ago, humans knew that they would use their bulged sails to sail on the endless ocean, and how could human beings who know how to borrow force give up a ubiquitous force in the solar system?

Yes, it is light.

Light, a kind of electromagnetic spectrum with wave-particle duality and naked eye visible in the impression of many people to illuminate the world.

To be honest, when he first read a paper related to solar sails, Wu Bin couldn't help but admire these seniors who think about the stars and the sea all day are really big.

Solar sail, also called light sail, is a space navigation technology that relies on spreading out a large-area thin film structure and uses the extremely weak light pressure generated by sunlight photons on the surface of the light sail to achieve propulsion.

Although the thrust generated by each photon "hit" the solar sail is extremely small, in the absence of friction in space, this force gradually accumulates and can push the spaceship forward.

The topic of this tournament is the solar sail fire star tour, which requires participants to establish a Physics model of the light-driven solar sail spacecraft interstellar flight, and optimize the route to obtain the maximum number of passengers and shorten the sailing time.

Of course, Sun Sail takes passengers to Fire Star for a day trip to the fire star. This kind of thing only exists in theory.

Although Japan successfully launched the first solar sail spaceship "Icarus" in 2010, and successfully reached the vicinity of Venus six months later, a large number of astronomers and Physics scientists started A lot of research has been done on this aircraft, but it is still in the stage of living in a dream to carry passengers and so on.

Looking at Bo Jiasheng who was a little confused, Wu Bin patted his shoulder and said: "First establish the power model of the solar sail and the model of the solar sail in orbit, and I will help you with the optimization afterwards."

"Okay, I will try hard." Silk Jiasheng nodded hard.

……

48 hours later, Wu Bin sent the paper he checked to the official mailbox, and then looked at the two exhausted teammates next to him with a smile. "Would you like to celebrate? Western food? Bar? This time you all did a good job."

"No...I can't open my sleepy eyes." Silk Jiasheng waved weakly.

Because he doesn't want to be a character who can only hold his thighs, he has been insisting on the principle of never asking Wu Bin if he can solve it by himself for the past two days, so he burned a considerable amount of brain cells.

But in the end, when Wu Bin affirmed nodded, he still felt quite a sense of accomplishment.

Zheng Wenhan is the same. After a day of fighting on the computer, he doesn't want to say anything that he is sleepy.

So Wu Bin shrugged and said: "All right, then go back to the hotel."

"Hey, hello."

When the person just walked out of the computer room, an American brother who was about 1.9 meters tall suddenly stopped in front of Wu Bin.

Wu Bin was taken aback for a moment, then looked at his face and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he asked, "Hello, what's the matter? "

The American brother immediately and friendly extended the hand and self-introduced: "My name is Aiden. I participated in the same IPhO as you. I can meet you again in my country. I believe it must be God. Do you want to have a drink together? Of course, I’ll treat you."
