Chapter 338 I have a bold idea

As we all know, when an atom reaches several thousand or even tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, the electrons in the atom will break away from the attraction of the nucleus and form negatively charged free electrons.

Atoms that have lost electrons become positively charged ions.

At this time, a state in which ions and free electrons coexist will be produced, which is commonly known as "plasma state".

This is a very common phenomenon in the universe.

Although the plasma as a whole is uncharged, the particles it consists of are charged.

Therefore, there is a magnetic field inside the plasma.

Lin Shi's achievement suddenly reminded Xu You of the magnetic confinement of a controllable nuclear fusion device.

Lin Shi didn't know what topics Xu You was currently studying, and was a little surprised by Xu You's surprised look.

"Okay, I'll show you the data right now. It's all in my computer."

After finding her experimental data, Lin Shi explained it to Xu You.

"I haven't done many experiments so far. I just did some experiments at several temperatures and compared them with several other plasmas with relatively strong magnetic fields."

Xu You carefully looked at Lin Shi's experimental data and couldn't help but smile on his face.

When the temperature is low, the plasma state of this topological superconductor has a slightly stronger magnetic field intensity than other plasmas.

But as the temperature continues to rise, these advantages become more and more obvious.

This feeling is a bit like several exponential function images with different exponents.

When the exponent gradually becomes larger, the exponential function with the larger base will have a faster climbing speed.

At this time, Xu You made a bold hypothesis.

When the temperature of this material is high enough, the magnetic field produced can be extremely large.

This may help tokamak devices achieve stronger magnetic confinement.

Lin Shi didn't know what Xu You was thinking, and felt a little overwhelmed by Xu You's inexplicable smile.

"Is it true...that this research of mine is meaningless?"

Lin Shi originally thought that even if this result was published in any top journal, it would at least be published in SCI Section 1 or something.

But judging from Xu You's reaction, he might not even be able to send out the first zone.

Hearing this, Xu You quickly waved his hands and said:

"No, on the contrary, your research results may be of great significance. Even if the reviewers of those journals do not approve it, I will definitely approve it."

Xu You now believes that he is more authoritative than the reviewers of those journals.

Because Xu You himself has become one of the most authoritative reviewers of Jida's core journals.

As China’s influence in the world’s academic community increases.

Jida's core journals are no longer inferior to those top Western journals.

"Teacher Xu, what do you mean?"

Xu You did not answer Lin Shi's question directly, but asked instead:

"Does anyone else know about this result?"

"Not yet, because the experiment is relatively simple and I am doing it myself."

"Lin Shi, if this result cannot be published, can you accept it?"

Lin Shi didn't know what Xu You meant by this sentence.

However, relying on Lin Shi's trust in Xu You, Lin Shi immediately agreed to Xu You's request.

"Teacher Xu, I will listen to you."

"Okay! Lin Shi, if you have no objection, I will make the decision on this topic."

"Well, I have no problem."

"Remember, don't reveal this to anyone else yet. Come on, let's go to the laboratory now."

Because of this achievement, it may have very high application prospects.

Xu You temporarily put aside other less important things and put the priority of this experiment first.

After arriving at the laboratory, Xu You and Lin Shi started high-temperature experiments on this topological superconductor.

Due to limitations of experimental conditions, some ultra-high temperatures cannot be reached in this laboratory.

Xu You's idea is to first make the experimental data more detailed.

With the joint efforts of Xu You and Lin Shi, the two produced multiple experimental data.

After fitting, Xu You and Lin Shi discovered.

When this substance is in the plasma state, the magnetic field generated does have a functional relationship with temperature.

The entire functional relationship is not a standard exponential function, but similar to the exponential function, the slope of the image continues to increase with temperature.

According to this formula, if this material can be heated to a very high temperature, the magnetic field it generates will be very, very large.

Theoretically, it is even larger than the magnetic field in the tokamak device.

"If this substance can be added to the raw materials for nuclear fusion, the plasma can achieve very strong self-restraint."

In this way, even without adding an external magnetic field, the restraint effect on nuclear reaction raw materials can be achieved.

And if the two magnetic fields are superimposed in a suitable way, the constraining ability of the magnetic field can be made stronger.

It is likely to enable controllable nuclear fusion devices to set records for longer operating times.

However, it is not easy to verify whether this material will generate an extremely strong magnetic field at ultra-high temperatures.

To ensure safety, nuclear fusion experiments are not allowed even in Jida's nuclear physics laboratory.

After all, such an experiment is indeed too dangerous.

A little carelessness can cause serious consequences.

Experiments of this level are completed using simulations in the school's nuclear physics laboratory.

If you want to achieve ultra-high temperatures, you can only go to a base that specializes in controlled fusion experiments to conduct such experiments.

In the following time, Xu You tried to simulate the magnetic field strength of this material at ultra-high temperatures through brain simulation.

However, due to the lack of sufficient data support, Xu Youshang was unable to perform simulations well.

With Xu You's current ability, it is not possible to completely simulate all the properties of particles in the brain, and more relies on a large amount of data for support.

Thinking of this, Xu You decided to verify it through experiments.

Xu You found Deng Fu, an expert in Ji Da nuclear physics, and explained his thoughts.

"What? Professor Xu, are you saying that you already have new ideas about a device for controllable nuclear fusion?"

Deng Fu was also shocked when he heard Xu You's words.

Originally, Deng Fu thought that Xu You's talk of designing a brand new controllable nuclear fusion device might be just a fantasy.

Unexpectedly, Xu You would have a breakthrough so soon.

"My idea is to make improvements based on the tokamak device. I have not yet decided on the specific improvement plan. If possible, I hope to use a controllable nuclear fusion device to conduct some experiments. Academician Deng, we have

Is there a place where controlled nuclear fusion experiments can be conducted?”
