I am a great scientist

Chapter 412 New World ([-])

Atom Converter, a reward item opened from the second mysterious gift box, has a similar effect to the 'Mirror of True Knowledge'.

The generation of matter energy is derived from the atomic motion of opposite phase matter, which is converted into heat energy, light energy, radiation energy, ... and so on. Atomic motion is the basis of all matter and energy.

Through the function of the atomic conversion instrument, Zhou Xing intuitively obtained the energy structure of the quantum entanglement phenomenon in the atomic motion.

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in which particles interact with each other in a system composed of two or more particles. No matter how far apart two particles are in an entangled state, as long as one changes, the other will also change instantaneously.

Utilizing the characteristics of quantum entanglement, a pair of entangled particles is constructed in advance and placed on both sides of the communication, and the particle with an unknown quantum state is jointly measured with the particle of the sender, and the particle of the receiver changes instantly. This state is the same as that of the sender. The state of the particles of the party is symmetrical after the change, and the information of the joint measurement is transmitted to the receiver through the classical channel. The receiver changes the changed particles according to the received information, and can obtain the same unknown quantum state as the sender.

Based on this phenomenon, Zhou Xing designed an ultra-long-distance quantum communication device.

In the spacious laboratory, Zhou Xing stared at the large holographic screen, while a group of experts and professors were busy adjusting the equipment and proofreading the data.

A white man's face appeared on the holographic screen, and he excitedly asked Zhou Xing for instructions: "Mr. Zhou, we have assembled the communication terminal here, and now we can conduct a test experiment."

"Well, activate the quantum communication device and prepare for testing." Zhou Xing nodded and ordered.

Hearing this, the experts and professors in the laboratory were all shocked, and they happily executed it.

The field of quantum communication is one of the cutting-edge technologies of human society. Many countries in the world have achieved breakthroughs in discounted technology. The distance is only about 1 kilometers.

However, the quantum communicator developed by Zhou Xing far surpassed this number in the first test. The other end of the communicator is located in Denmark, Europe, more than 7000 kilometers away from the capital of China. The two ends have a communication link, which means that the world will enter the quantum communication field. communication age.

The experiment was carried out in an orderly manner. Both parties activated the communication device at the same time and began to communicate with each other.

In the laboratory, everyone was both excited and nervous, and the progress of the experiment was fast.

Soon, Liu Kai's excited voice sounded in front of the monitoring screen of the communication instrument, and reported to Zhou Xing: "Mr. Zhou, our other party received the signal and gave us feedback. The signal is clear and accurate, without interference or delay."

Zhou Xing nodded, showing an expected expression.

The communicator was designed by him himself, and after Zhou Xiaozhi's countless calculations, as long as there are no mistakes in the manufacturing process, success is inevitable.

One-time pass, the effect is good, there is no doubt, all the experts and professors showed disbelief, their faces were stunned,

"President Zhou, we seem to have succeeded?"

"Haha, this is good, it's the communication field's turn to change!"

"Did it work? Old Liu, have you confirmed it?"

"..."

The experts and professors were full of surprises and celebrated happily.

"If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself. The signal has no delay and is extremely clear." Liu Kai gave up his position and said excitedly while watching everyone.

With a "crash", all the experts and professors rushed to Liu Kai, staring at the communication display interface, and the European link communicator is now in the link state, and the signal is extremely clear.

"The earth is too small, and there is no way to measure all the functions of this copper whisker."

"Yes! There are various magnetic interferences in the earth's environment. If it is placed in a space environment, the transmission distance can be multiplied by 1 times."

"Mr. Zhou, shall we announce this good news to the outside world?"

"..."

The eyes of the experts and professors were shining brightly, and the group was excited, expressing their inner excitement at the moment.

The quantum communication device designed by Zhou Xing is different from the mainstream technology. It also uses the theory of quantum entanglement. However, the propagation distance and particle reaction far exceed the current quantum communication field. Once this technology is widely promoted, human beings will Civilization will completely enter the global quantum communication, and the speed and efficiency of information transmission will increase by tens of thousands of times.

Global informatization, dataization, Internet of everything, ..., a series of large-scale projects that use data information for human beings can all be implemented, and by then, the world will once again bring about earth-shaking changes.

"This technology can be announced, but there are still some areas that need to be improved." Zhou Xing frowned slightly and nodded.

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

"Mr. Zhou, what improvements need to be made?"

"Yes! Mr. Zhou, what are you dissatisfied with?"

"..."

Everyone looked at each other and asked Zhou Xing in puzzlement.

This quantum communication device is almost perfect, the technology used has reached its limit, and they really can't find any room for improvement.

Zhou Xing was silent for a moment, looked at the crowd and said: "If the budget is correct, this communicator is applicable within the solar system, but I am not sure about its efficacy beyond the solar system. Once we leave the earth to explore the vast In the cosmic space, the time delay limitation of the speed of light communication will be revealed immediately. At this time, the speed of light communication will basically lose its meaning, so we must continue to research and develop a communication method faster than the speed of light. Otherwise, human beings will not be able to way out of the solar system."

Hearing this, everyone nodded. The universe is unimaginably large. The closest star to the solar system is Proxima Centauri, Alpha Centauri C. The distance is 4.22 light years, which means that it takes 4.22 years to travel at the speed of light. time.

Can the quantum communicator work at such a long distance?
"Mr. Zhou, in which direction should we improve? The quantum entanglement effect should be the fastest signal propagation speed."

"Yes! Regardless of timeliness or accuracy, no other technology can replace quantum transmission!"

"Mr. Zhou, do you have other directions? Faster-than-light communication is impossible!"

"..."

All the experts and professors looked at Zhou Xing in puzzlement, and asked questions one after another.

The upper limit of the speed that any matter can reach can only be the speed of light. Super-light speed communication will lead to the destruction of the law of causality, the influence of the future on the past, and various paradoxes.

For example, it takes about 8 minutes for sunlight to reach the earth from the sun, which is the speed of light; then, this also means that no matter what you can imagine or cannot imagine happens on the sun, this information needs to pass through any channel. At least 8 minutes to propagate to Earth.

If it exceeds the speed of light, the things that originally contained information will lose all information, including quality, shape, state and so on.

Distorted space-time, or high-dimensional space?
All the experts and professors had this thought in their minds, but they quickly drove them out of their minds.

It is impossible for human beings to master such a technology, even if there are great people who have described theories in these directions, but even a genius scientist - Zhou Xing, he cannot study this technology at this stage.

All the experts and professors stared at Zhou Xing, waiting for his answer.

Zhou Xing's eyes shone with wisdom, and he thought about it and said, "It may be difficult to achieve super-light speed communication, but it may be possible to do it in an indirect way."

"In what way?"

Everyone was stunned and asked in unison.

"Gravity can be used, and the combination of gravitational waves and quantum entanglement technology can be used to transmit information." Zhou Xing introduced with a smile.

Hearing this, all the experts and professors were stunned.

"Is this direction okay? Isn't the propagation speed of gravitational waves the same as the speed of light?"

"This seems to work! Gravity is not a force, but a field, and it is the four-dimensional force field that distorts 'light'."

"Mass will distort the space. If the mass remains unchanged, the gravitational field will remain unchanged. When the mass changes, the gravitational field will change accordingly. This change propagates outward in the form of waves, and light is affected by the gravitational field and cannot escape. Can it be understood that the gravitational wave is faster than the speed of light when the force field of the black hole comes out?"

"No, the propagation speed of gravitational waves and the propagation speed of gravitational force are two concepts. The speed of gravitational waves is equal to the speed of light, but the speed of gravitational force is still unknown."

"That's right! Gravity should exist in more than four dimensions, Mr. Zhou, are you going to use gravitational waves or gravity?"

"..."

As soon as Zhou Xing's voice fell, there was a 'wow', and the experts and professors present were in a mess, expressing their opinions one after another.

"Everyone, please be quiet! Listen to what Mr. Zhou has to say." Liu Kai suddenly persuaded his excited colleagues loudly.

Hearing this, the laboratory was silent, and everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Xing's face, full of anticipation.

Facing everyone's eyes, Zhou Xing smiled slightly, started to get up, and said: "Because light has wave-particle duality, gravitational waves also have wave-particle duality, and gravitational waves are actually light waves. There is no doubt about this, but gravity It belongs to the four-dimensional force field, the space bending effect produced by matter in the space, when the object moves in the curved space, it shows the change of motion state in the right angle space, thus reflecting the gravitational effect, ... "

"In the law of universal gravitation, gravity is described as a point-to-point interaction between any two objects with mass in space, but in fact, gravity is not a substantial attractive interaction force between two objects, but an object The effect of having a physical property on the motion of another body,  ….”

"However, when observing the speed of stars in some other galaxies in the universe, it will be found that the farther away the galaxy is from the core, the speed of its rotation around the center does not all decay, but has a speed similar to that of the stars in the inner ring. This phenomenon is consistent with The farther you go, the less matter there is, the smaller the gravitational force, and the lower the velocity should be.

"Therefore, there must be some matter that is not covered by us in the universe. These matter should be "dark matter", providing an additional gravitational field,... If the characteristics of this matter can be found out, or, starting from the gravitational field , to find out the interaction between them in cooperation with the gravitational field, to realize the gravitational resonance signal transmission, instead of using light particles as the carrier to transmit the signal, this transmission method directly spans across the space, thereby shortening the transmission time,..."

"..."

All the experts and professors stared blankly at Zhou Xing, all stunned by his whimsy.

One step ahead is genius, two steps ahead is madman.

Zhou Xing's idea is grand and peculiar. However, it cannot be said that this idea has no possibility of success. However, it is not so difficult to realize this technology.

There are endless moving stars in the universe, and the quality and distance of each star are different. To unify them into a "special signal" to realize the transmission function across galaxies, the technical difficulty is greater than that of the ongoing "Xingyao" project Countless times.

"Mr. Zhou, your idea is very ingenious, but it seems that there is not enough theoretical support!"

"Mr. Zhou, our research on the gravitational field is very limited. As for the 'dark matter', which is a hypothetical substance that has phenomena that cannot be explained by existing theories, it has not yet been verified..."

"Mr. Zhou, your idea is worth trying, but the difficulty of realizing it may take a lifetime!"

"..."

All the experts and professors looked at Zhou Xing with complicated expressions, and expressed their disapproval.

Hearing this, Zhou Xing nodded helplessly, and had to admit the fact that this ultra-long-distance positioning communication technology is not so easy to realize, but without breaking through this technology, human beings cannot conduct real interstellar voyages.

"Human civilization has entered the interstellar era, and there are many difficulties. In the future, everyone must work harder!" Zhou Xing looked at the crowd and said earnestly.

Hearing this, all the experts nodded in agreement.

If human civilization wants to step into the interstellar civilization, the thorny problems it faces are not one or two, such as interstellar positioning and communication, spacecraft speed, space gravity environment, spacecraft ecological cycle system, etc.All kinds of things, human civilization seems to have returned to the age of great voyages, and it is necessary to break through many key technologies before it can challenge the stars and the sea.

"Mr. Zhou, you have done a very good job!"

"Yes! According to this speed, within ten years, Xingyao should be able to go into space!"

"It's so exciting, I didn't even dare to think about it before!"

"..."

Mentioning the "Xingyao" project, the experts and professors all smiled and became excited.

As employees of the Shining Star Group, they are fortunate to know the progress of the "Star Shining". Under the temptation of huge profits, the world is now almost the world's power, and together they are promoting the rapid progress of this project. If there is no accident, it is very promising. The construction of 'Xingyao' may be completed within the time limit stipulated by Zhou Xing.

Seeing everyone's happy smiles, Zhou Xing frowned, and there was no smile on his face.

The "Xingyao" project has united the world's governments. It is almost time for the nuclear fusion technology to be announced, and then the world will cause another violent turmoil.

At the same time, the Dark Zerg has always been a lingering shadow in Zhou Xing's heart, and the astronomical telescope to explore their traces must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
