Chapter 399 Overcoming room temperature superconductivity?
Due to what happened during this period, Nibisen was really not in the mood to see this authoritative professor at the strategic level. The main reason was that there had been no progress in research on space-based weapons for such a long time. He didn't think it would be any big deal if the other party suddenly came to visit him today. thing.
But when his female secretary's next words reached his ears, his eyes suddenly lit up.
It's like I thought of something.
"You have some important news for me?"
"Could it be..."
As he murmured these words, his whole mood suddenly changed significantly.
It seemed like he was regaining his fighting spirit.
Without any hesitation, he immediately told the female secretary in front of him: "Hurry up and invite Professor Richter to the reception room. I'll be there right away." He stood up.
Although the female secretary was surprised as to why her superior's attitude changed so quickly, she didn't think much about it.
He nodded in agreement and hurriedly walked outside.
"Okay sir."
After watching the female secretary leave, Nibisen no longer hesitated and walked towards the reception room without even bothering to tidy up his clothes.
…
soon.
Nibisen pushed the door open and entered the reception room. An old man with silver hair and glasses suddenly appeared in his field of vision. It was Richter, the authoritative professor in charge of the entire joint research and development project of space-based weapons.
Full of expectations, Nibisen was impatient and walked over and asked directly.
"Professor Richter, I heard that you have good news to tell me. Could it be that there is progress in the development of space-based weapons?"
In his opinion, if Richter could call it important news, it could only be a new development in space-based weapons.
After all, this is the most important thing for their joint R\u0026D team.
At this moment, Richter's face was filled with a smile. When he saw Nibisen coming over, he did not hesitate at all and immediately told him the important good news.
"Sir Nibison, I do have good news when I come here this time."
"But it has nothing to do with space-based weapons."
Nibisen suddenly smiled when he heard the first half of the sentence, thinking that he could actually turn a corner this time. After all, if the development of space-based weapons is successful, he, as the person in charge, will get some credit.
Not to mention the reward, at least the accident of the lunar lander will not be pursued again.
able to stay in this position.
This is absolutely critical good news for him.
Unfortunately, this surprise did not last long. When the second half of Richter's words reached his ears, his expression suddenly dropped, and a question mark appeared in his mind.
what's the situation?
Has nothing to do with space-based weapons?
He really couldn't figure out what else could make Richter so happy if there wasn't progress in the research of space-based weapons, and he even went to him for a report and sharing as soon as possible.
The key is that according to the information he knew, Richter did not participate in other projects after being assigned to be responsible for the research and development of Tianji weapons.
Under such circumstances, it stands to reason that except for the progress of space-based weapons, nothing should make him so happy.
But he also knew in his heart that Richter would never deliberately lie to him about such a thing.
In other words, the so-called good news this time indeed has nothing to do with the development progress of space-based weapons.
After thinking about this clearly, his interest disappeared in an instant, and his enthusiastic attitude became much colder than before.
I even began to regret asking the secretary to bring him over.
At this time, Richter was still immersed in his good news and did not notice Nibison's emotional change.
Regardless of whether the other party is still interested in the matter, he will directly tell the details in the next second.
"The situation is like this. During this time, when we were developing certain materials for space-based weapons, we accidentally synthesized a superconducting material. After preliminary experiments, we suspected that it was possible to achieve normal temperature superconducting materials based on this special material. guide."
"Superconducting material?"
"Professor Richter, say it again!" Nibisen, who had already lost interest, instantly raised his voice after hearing these words.
Obviously he was also very surprised.
He never expected that the good news Richter said would be superconducting materials.
It immediately made him feel like he was on an emotional roller coaster.
Although he is not a scientific researcher, he understands what superconducting materials mean in the scientific world.
In particular, according to Richter, it is possible to achieve room-temperature superconductivity with this material.
It is no exaggeration to say that room temperature superconductivity is the ultimate problem in the materials world.
No less difficult than the world's problems in mathematics.
It's just that room-temperature superconductivity has always been considered impossible to develop in the academic community.
Because once this material comes out, its biggest impact will be to help the rapid development of controllable nuclear fusion devices.
Nuclear fusion energy is the ultimate goal of human civilization at this stage. It can be said that whoever can achieve it will have the absolute right to speak, and can make human civilization truly enter space.
From this aspect alone, the value of room temperature superconducting materials is no less than that of space-based weapons.
The most important thing is that Xu Yun has now developed a complete space-based weapon strike system. Even if they come up with their own space-based weapons, they will only be at the same level as their opponents.
However, due to the development of fields such as quantum computing and artificial intelligence, they will still be restricted in various aspects.
Room-temperature superconductivity is completely different.
Although Xu Yun is well-known in the materials industry, he has not conducted research and development of room-temperature superconducting materials.
Even at present, there is no progress in room temperature superconductivity in the world.
In this case, as long as they prove the authenticity of room temperature superconductivity, they will have absolute say in the world, and they can even use it as a bargaining chip to participate in the development of lunar resources.
As these thoughts quickly emerged in his mind, Nibisen's breathing became rapid.
It turned out that Richter was right, he did bring a very important piece of good news.
At this time, Richter saw Nibisen's surprise in his eyes and did not feel surprised at all.
After all, given the importance of room-temperature superconductivity, it would be strange if there was no reaction to the news.
As for Nibisen's questioning, Richter went on to say: "This material is based on the weak interaction of copper and oxygen. It can currently be determined that this material has a semiconductor diamagnetic effect. As for whether it is a true room-temperature superconductor, we will wait for it." After reproducing the material and re-testing, we should be able to get a more accurate result.”
"But I personally think that the probability of realizing room-temperature superconductivity is very high." Richter added at the end.
Because this material was synthesized by accident, the quantities obtained are very rare.
As a result, it is temporarily impossible to conduct resistance testing, so it is necessary to reversely deduce the complete synthesis reaction formula to reproduce this material.
Comprehensive testing will then be carried out again to determine whether there is a chance to achieve room-temperature superconductivity.
At this moment, Nibisen seemed to be grasping at straws. He didn't hear what Richter said clearly, but he just remembered the last sentence firmly.
Superconductivity at room temperature is highly possible.
And he only has one thought about this now, which is to make this news public.
Announce to the world that they have developed room temperature superconducting materials.
Although this matter has not yet been finalized, his current situation forced him to do so.
The lunar lander accident left him no longer able to stay in this position, so it was good that he was not held accountable for other responsibilities.
In this situation, if you want to keep your position, you must produce dazzling results.
Originally, he had planned to accept his fate, but since God asked Richter to bring such good news, he must make full use of it no matter what. As long as he can keep his position, there is still room for maneuver, even if it cannot be confirmed that the development of normal-temperature super Director, then the situation will not be worse than now.
After his thoughts reached this point, he no longer hesitated and quickly asked Richter:
"Professor Richter, is there a paper on the development of this material?"
"Currently, the relevant papers have not been completed. The existing papers can only prove the semiconductor diamagnetic properties of this material, and it is not yet certain that it can achieve room-temperature superconductivity."
"That's enough."
After learning this information, Nibisen nodded with satisfaction and said, "I am ready to announce this good news to the outside world immediately."
"But we haven't completed the final proof yet, right..."
Richter was also shocked when he heard Nibison's plan, but before he could finish all the words he wanted to dissuade, Nibison's voice came to his ears again.
"Professor Richter should know the situation we are facing today in top science and technology. There must be some major results to increase our influence. In addition, I believe Professor Richter will not disappoint."
After hearing what Nibisen said, Richter also fell into silence.
Of course he understands that today is different from the past, because the birth of Xu Yun, a genius human scientist, has caused the top technology on the opposite side to develop rapidly and surpass them in many aspects.
Especially this time, the other party successfully built the first lunar base, but they had a serious space accident.
Without being alarmist at all, they have indeed lost their influence in the world.
Although as a scientific researcher, he wanted to wait until the material reproduction was finalized before releasing the paper to the public, he ultimately agreed with Nibisen's decision.
"I will reproduce the material as soon as possible and strive to get the final result in the shortest time."
He gave Nibisen a firm assurance, and then did not dare to waste any more time, and then returned to his laboratory to research and reproduce the material.
As for Nibisen, since he has decided to announce the news immediately, there will definitely be no hesitation, not to mention that this matter is related to whether he can continue to serve as the head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Almost as soon as Richter's figure disappeared from sight, he couldn't wait to call his secretary in.
Let him do this as soon as possible.
And he returned to his office in a happy mood, all the previous depressed mood disappearing.
…
that's all.
A piece of news that day about the breakthrough of room-temperature superconducting materials was quickly reported and spread on overseas media websites.
It also specifically pointed out that this material was developed by a joint research team composed of top scientific researchers from many parties, claiming that the emergence of room temperature superconductivity will completely change the current life of human civilization.
After the relevant news spread quickly on the Internet, there was no doubt that it quickly attracted the attention of many people.
It can be said that overseas users have completely lost confidence due to the failure of restarting the moon landing plan.
It was believed that Xu Yun and the lunar base he completed could lead human civilization to a higher level, but no one expected that room temperature superconductivity would suddenly be conquered.
It's like being given a shot in the arm when you're desperate, and most of your lost confidence is instantly restored.
Faced with this sudden surprise, heated discussions about this matter can be seen everywhere on major website platforms, and the comments in the comments are full of excitement.
"We actually conquered room-temperature superconductivity, which is an important material that can change the world."
"God bless!"
"This is definitely the best news I've heard."
"Has it been proven that room-temperature superconductivity can be achieved? Doesn't it mean that room-temperature superconducting materials do not exist at all?"
"This is a joint research and development team composed of many top scientists from around the world. Even if room temperature superconductivity is solved, it should be normal."
"This is something that even a genius scientist has not been able to do."
…
If you look carefully at these comments, it is not difficult to find that there are also some doubts mixed in.
Doubt the authenticity of this news.
Mainly room temperature superconductivity is a well-known problem in the materials world. Even before, many scientists said that this material did not exist at all. Now it is really hard to believe that it is suddenly announced that it has been conquered.
The key point is that as ordinary people, they cannot see the real thing, so it is difficult to prove whether this thing is true.
However, since most people were immersed in this joy, the so-called doubts did not cause any waves.
The shock caused by this kind of news is undoubtedly global. It didn’t take long for the news that the overseas joint research and development team had conquered room temperature superconductivity to spread to the country and quickly topped the list of hot searches. If it weren’t for the fact that many official media also carried out the topic. After hearing the report, netizens began to wonder who had pulled the prank.
But despite this, most people remain skeptical.
After all, this situation has a history.
A serious space accident had just occurred overseas. A few days after the two trapped astronauts were picked up, they turned around and announced that they had successfully conquered room-temperature superconducting materials. It is indeed difficult to believe its authenticity.
Just as everyone was rushing to raise questions, the two major magazines Science and Nature also publicized the matter.
A related paper was also published.
With the emergence of this paper, netizens began to be a little hesitant in their attitudes.
Some people are still skeptical about this matter, and some people think that if room-temperature superconductivity is really realized, it will be a good thing for mankind.
But no matter which direction it develops, a global debate is certainly inevitable.
But one thing is certain, if it was Xu Yun who announced that he had conquered room-temperature superconducting materials, no one would doubt anything.
——
"I always feel that room-temperature superconductivity should not be conquered so quickly. I remain skeptical about this matter."
"The main reason is that it is too coincidental to announce that room-temperature superconductivity has been conquered just after such a major aerospace accident occurred."
"I think this is a good thing. At least it's not far away to achieve nuclear fusion with room-temperature superconductivity."
"The experimental team that conquered room-temperature superconductivity seems to be composed of the top scientists from several forces. It is not impossible to solve room-temperature superconductivity."
"Perhaps the more difficult the problem, the more accidental it is."
"Science and Nature have already published the paper, so it shouldn't be fake, right?"
"If Xu Yuan has conquered room-temperature superconductivity, then I still believe it, and those overseas should just forget it."
…
"There hasn't been such a big movement in the material world for a long time. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing."
In the School of Materials Engineering at Kyongshu University, academician Sun Zhenghong was browsing online reports on room temperature superconductivity with a very complicated expression in his office.
If room temperature superconductivity is conquered at this time, it is still unknown what impact it will have on the world structure.
But he still felt more regretful about this.
After all, with Xu Yun's talent in the material world, if he had concentrated on studying superconducting materials, he might have conquered room-temperature superconductivity long ago.
How can we wait for overseas scientists to conquer it?
However, Xu Yun turned around and invested in a new field. Although he also achieved impressive results, he was stagnant in the field of materials.
Of course, this is not the time to think about this. As an academician in the field of materials of the Academy of Sciences, he needs to confirm room temperature superconductivity as soon as possible to find out whether room temperature superconducting materials have really been conquered.
When his thoughts stayed here, he no longer hesitated, and immediately picked up the phone on the table and called.
Not long after, I saw a professor knocking on the door and walking in. He walked straight to his desk, stopped and asked, "Did Dr. Sun come to see me for something?"
"Professor Wang, you should know about the room-temperature superconducting materials discussed on the Internet, right?" Sun Zhenghong raised his eyes and looked at the other party, directly stating his purpose without any pretense.
Room-temperature superconductivity is like dropping a nuclear bomb in the material world. As a researcher in the field of materials, it is impossible not to know.
What's more, the relevant news has spread all over the world.
Therefore, when faced with Sun Zhenghong's inquiry, Wang Sheng immediately replied: "I have read the paper, but it is not yet certain that it is really room temperature superconductivity."
"Do we still need to reproduce the experiment ourselves? It is not advisable to completely trust other people's research. I think materials laboratories around the world should take action now." I learned that Wang Sheng had read the article about Sun Zhenghong nodded with satisfaction about the paper on room temperature superconductivity.
At this time, Wang Sheng also understood what Sun Zhenghong meant and immediately responded.
"Then I will arrange the laboratory and personnel."
As he spoke, he turned around and left.
But as soon as he took a step, he seemed to think of something. He turned around again and hesitated for a while before saying what he wanted to say.
"That Sun Yuan, Xu Yuan happens to be in Jingzhou City right now. Should we invite each other to participate?"
Wang Sheng is naturally aware of Xu Yun's strength in the field of materials. It will undoubtedly be much smoother if he can participate in this verification. Moreover, he also knows that Xu Yun has returned to Jingzhou City from the imperial capital.
But Sun Zhenghong shook his head and said: "He came back this time to take a special vacation to be with his family. Let us reproduce and verify it ourselves first."
