Institute of High Energy, particle collider experimental base.
The particle accelerator ring used by the collider is still being renovated. A section of the ring has been rebuilt, and a lot of sophisticated detection equipment has been added.
Many engineering staff are busy.
After Wang Hao's research team arrived at the base, under the leadership of Tian Guilin, they came to the project site for the reconstruction of the ring road.
Tian Guilin said, "The most important tasks are two, one is the force field equipment, and the second is the detection equipment."
"The force field equipment has your team, but there are still many problems, including the coverage of the ring area and the problem of magnetic field interference inside."
“During the design process before, field coverage was a difficult problem.”
"There are a total of five devices inside, covering a total of about 40 meters of the ring road, but we think it is still relatively few..."
He couldn't help but ask.
If Tian Guilin's idea is followed, it would be best if all the ring roads are covered by the annihilation force field, so that there will be better effects.
That is of course impossible.
Luo Haocheng, the team leader sent by the annihilation force field experimental team, reported seriously, "We communicated with Academician Tian and finally decided to use a force field with a power of four to five times."
"The strengths of several force fields are not completely consistent, and there is a deviation of plus or minus 0.3 times, but it will not affect the experimental results."
"The main consideration is cost."
Tian Guilin also nodded.
A force field with a power of four to five times is considered to be more effective and will not produce proton magnetization.
At the same time, they worked on proton beams.
The experiment used ‘specially manufactured upgraded protons’ so that they would not produce magnetization and affect the results in a strong annihilation field environment.
Luo Haocheng continued, "For the underlying basic material, we use 041β iron material, but it is still very expensive..."
He said with a straight face, "In addition, there is also a newly built tunnel outer skin, which is made of specially manufactured first-level materials, which is also very expensive."
"These materials are not affected by force fields."
While Luo Haocheng was talking about technology, he was also talking about the money spent. Experimental funds were allocated by the science and technology department, but most of them came from the annihilation force field experimental team.
because……
They have money!
This experiment is also a test of the annihilation particle theory, and it makes sense to use the funds from the annihilation force field experimental group. Otherwise, it is obviously not possible to apply for a project that only relies on funding from higher-level departments and costs hundreds of millions.
Wang Hao asked, "I didn't pay much attention. How much did it cost?"
"Twenty-seven billion!"
Luo Haocheng said a number, and even Tian Guilin lowered his head. He had worked at the Institute of High Energy for so long and had never carried out such a large project.
It’s unthinkable to spend 2.7 billion in such a short period of time!
Wang Hao said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. We are now verifying the annihilation particle theory and creating super-light particles."
"If there are any discoveries in the experiment, everything will be worth it."
Luo Haocheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Hao's nonchalant look also made Tian Guilin extremely frightened. Everyone knew that Wang Hao's research group had a lot of funds...
So many?
That’s 2.7 billion in funding, so why don’t you just wave your hand and end it?
Of course Wang Hao didn't care.
The funds for the Annihilation Field Experimental Team are too sufficient, and the monthly funds are still rising rapidly, and part of it will be spent.
These are originally intended to be used as investment in scientific research.
Tian Guilin continued the visit with a group of people and talked about the problem of detection. The principle of detecting tachyon particles and detecting the speed of conventional particles are basically the same, that is, the speed is calculated based on distance and time difference, but the speed of particles is too fast.
Fast, let alone tachyon particles, would definitely require more sophisticated equipment.
He said, "Our current equipment has been determined to be able to detect, of course, provided that some strange phenomena do not occur or the values ​​are too exaggerated."
The numerical value is too exaggerated, which means that the particle speed ‘cannot be too high’.
For example, ten times the speed of light.
The accuracy of the detection equipment required for that kind of speed needs to be an order of magnitude higher.
Strange phenomenon...
It's very uncertain here.
At present, humans have not yet created particles that exceed the speed of light. No one knows exactly what will happen by then. We can only speculate through some theories.
The problem is that the annihilation particle theory conflicts with the theory of relativity.
Whenever he thinks about this, Tian Guilin's mood is very complicated. From the perspective of a high-energy physicist, he 100% supports the theory of relativity.
The purpose of his current research is to deny the theory of relativity.
certainly.
Tian Guilin is not a fanatical believer in any theory. He just laments the importance of experiments. No matter what the experimental results are, experiments have very extraordinary significance.
Privately, he lamented, "This time our experiment will become the first collision between Einstein and Wang Hao after a hundred years!"
"The theory of relativity and the theory of annihilation, the collision between the two most profound theories in physics!"
"No matter what the outcome is, it will have a very far-reaching impact."
"Of course I personally hope that the experiment will produce results, that is, the detection of super-light particles. It's very simple... because Wang Hao is a flower grower, and we know each other..."
"Einstein..."
"He is a great scientist, but physics needs to develop and progress after all. I hope new things can defeat old things!"
…
The experiment is scheduled for three weeks later, and there is another thing that is confirmed. On the day of the experiment, several people from the decision-making level will come.
Among them will definitely include Teacher Zhao.
Wang Hao was a little surprised when he heard what Tian Guilin said, "What is Teacher Zhao doing here? This is just a physical experiment to test the theory. It shouldn't involve any technology, right?"
"……Forehead."
"Teacher Zhao said we should care about basic scientific research."
After Tian Guilin finished speaking loudly, he hesitated and leaned over and whispered, "Maybe you can think of it this way, he is just here to watch the fun?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I believe this."
Wang Hao tugged at the corner of his mouth.
In recent years, the particle collision experiments of the Institute of High Energy have rarely received attention from the outside world. They can be said to be low-key enough that it is difficult for any experiments to be noticed in a year.
This is also very normal.
In fact, it is not just the particle collision experiments of the High Energy Institute, but also the experiments of the European Organization for Nuclear Organization. Particle collisions have been studied for decades. At the beginning, many results were produced and many research papers were published. Particle standards
The model is constantly being improved.
In recent years, especially after the discovery of the God particle, there have been relatively few.
This is mainly because research has hit a bottleneck.
Those contents that are easy to discover from experiments have already been unearthed long ago, while those that are not easy to discover are difficult to discover even if the intensity of particle collisions is increased.
This is the bottleneck.
The physicists participating in the experiment hope to make new discoveries, but how can it be so easy in the field of particle research? Even if some weak signals are occasionally found, it is difficult to explain what the problem is.
This is the case for several international high-energy particle research institutions.
Now that the experiment has attracted the attention of the decision-makers, Tian Guilin still feels a little excited, but when he thinks about the content of the experiment, he feels that it is no big deal.
This experiment introduced a strong annihilation force field.
The annihilation theory believes that the maximum speed of particles in a strong annihilation force field will exceed the speed of light, but it has always been just a theory and has not been verified by experiments.
To be continued...
