Super Battleship Reborn

Following Xiao Yu's order, they were immediately installed on the four large-scale particle colliders in Huantianyuan, with a distance of 1,000 kilometers from each other. The total number of nuclear fusion reactors reached more than 200,000 at the same time. The instrument launched two protons in two directions respectively. As soon as these two protons were launched, they were immediately accelerated by the first-stage accelerator, and then entered the second-stage accelerator from the first-stage accelerator, and were accelerated again. And then the third level...

In this way, the speed of the two protons will be infinitely close to the speed of light if the acceleration continues step by step.

According to the calculation of relativity, even if it is a proton, to accelerate it to the speed of light, the energy required is infinite. This has been confirmed by countless experimental data, and Xiao Yu cannot break through this limit.

But how much energy would more than 200,000 fusion reactors produce? How high will this energy, all used to accelerate the two protons, raise its energy level?

The speed of these two protons is almost infinitely close to the speed of light.

This is why the larger the particle collider, the higher its scientific value. Because the larger the particle collider, the higher the acceleration it can provide for the particles. In this way, at the moment when two particles collide, the energy level is higher, which is more helpful for scientific research.

The Huantianyuan Four-Particle Collider built by Xiao Yu can provide enough acceleration to make the energy level of the two colliding particles reach the level of one femtosecond after the Big Bang. Under such an energy level, the two particles will be smashed by the impact, and all the mysteries hidden inside will be revealed.

With more than 200,000 nuclear fusion reactors running at full power to provide energy for the collider, the two protons became faster and faster, and finally, at a certain point inside the collider, they collided with a bang.

At the collision point of the two particles, the temperature has exceeded hundreds of billions of degrees, and at this moment, its energy level has far exceeded the collision of two neutron stars.

Although the energy level at the collision point is so huge, the total amount of energy is not even as large as the kinetic energy carried by a high-speed autocannon bullet. The reason for this seemingly contradictory phenomenon is that they are too small. . Just as the pressure of the heel of a woman's high-heeled shoes on the ground is greater than the pressure of an elephant on the ground, it cannot be said that the quality of a woman is greater than that of an elephant.

Xiao Yu observed that at this moment, a miniature black hole appeared out of thin air, but in just an instant, the black hole evaporated its own mass and disappeared. There is no way, it is too small, it is too small to swallow the material, and it has already ended its own life.

At the moment when the black hole disappeared, Xiao Yu's ultra-precise observation instrument observed many unspeakable phenomena. Xiao Yu didn't even have time to calculate and analyze what they meant, so he had to record all the data regardless and leave it for future analysis.

The first particle collision test lasted thirty minutes. Xiao Yu has obtained about several terabytes of observational data, which can fill several 500G hard drives.

These data are only raw data. In the future, Xiao Yu will use these raw data as the basis to carry out research on the microscopic world.

Hopefully, the completion of the four large-scale particle colliders in Huantianyuan will bring me a breakthrough in the microscopic world, allow me to break through the technical barriers of ultra-distance communication, verify the Higgs mechanism, or let me unify the four basic forces Get up... Xiao Yu muttered silently, turned around and threw himself into the ocean of data, and began to calculate the experimental data.

Xiao Yu knew that even if he came up with a clear physical formula now, he would not be able to apply it immediately. Just like Einstein's formula of mass and energy, the atomic bomb was invented decades after the discovery, and the nuclear power plant appeared after several decades of development. This is the lag between physical theory and practical application.

But the importance of physical theory is also here,

Without the guidance of basic physical theories, if you want to develop technology, you don't know where to develop.

Moreover, with the development of basic physics, in terms of theory, a civilization will inevitably experience the phenomenon of technological stagnation, that is, only technological development, but theoretical stagnation.

Because with the development of science, physical theories will become more and more complex, to the extent that all scientists in the entire civilization can't push it forward with their whole lives. It depends on the accumulation of generations of scientific researchers. push it.

This accumulation may take thousands of years, or tens of thousands of years, and more likely forever.

Xiao Yu has a unique advantage in this regard, because as long as he has enough computing power, Xiao Yu's technological development ability alone is comparable to that of one civilization or even several civilizations combined. Therefore, Xiao Yu didn't feel bad for the thousands of years he wasted on rushing. On a cosmic scale, thousands of years have passed in a blink of an eye, and it is really not worth feeling distressed.

Moreover, Xiao Yu has another advantage. Xiao Yu once estimated that if the human society developed to a population of 100 billion and possessed all of its current technology, it would take at least hundreds of years to build the Huantianyuan Four-Particle Collider. Because there are so many aspects for a civilization to develop, where can there be such action as Xiao Yu?

It took Xiao Yu three months to analyze the data collected in this experiment. Three months later, Xiao Yu turned on the particle collider again and conducted a collision experiment. Then continue to analyze the data of this test and compare it with the data of the previous test to prevent the influence of the test caused by errors.

During these two experiments, Xiao Yu observed a magical particle that has no spin, no charge, very unstable, and decays immediately after being produced. At present, it is certain that this particle is a brand new boson, but Xiao Yu is not sure whether it is a Higgs boson or not. Further conclusions need to be verified again by experiments.

In the ten years after the completion of the four large-scale particle colliders in Huantianyuan, Xiao Yu manipulated this machine and conducted hundreds of collision experiments in total, and obtained a large amount of experimental data. After comprehensive analysis, Xiao Yu finally came to a conclusion: this new boson is the legendary God particle, the Higgs boson.

At this moment, Xiao Yu felt a sense of relief. Because the status of the Higgs boson is so important.

Scientists on Earth once established a set of models called the Standard Model. This model predicts, pay attention, sixty-one particles that exist in the microscopic world. The first 60 kinds of particles have been discovered by humans one by one in experiments, but the Higgs boson has never been confirmed.

If the experiment proves that the Higgs boson does not exist, then the Standard Model will be overturned, and human microphysics will almost be overturned. If it is verified that the Higgs boson does exist, then the human physical theory will be more Solid, and, can also explain one of the most important questions, where does the quality come from?

The Higgs mechanism explains that the universe is full of something called the Higgs field, and particles gain energy by interacting with the Higgs field, and energy means mass, so every The same thing has quality. The Higgs boson is an inevitable by-product of the process of obtaining energy predicted by the Standard Model.

The existence of the Higgs boson has been verified, which basically confirms the existence of the Higgs mechanism and the Higgs field. Xiao Yu will continue to conduct research in this area in the future, to explore the entire process of the Higgs mechanism, and to explore… ...how to get energy out of nothing from the void.

On the one hand, this is research. On the other hand, Xiao Yu discovered a strange phenomenon in hundreds of collision experiments.

That is, the mass of matter, or energy, increases for no reason. For example, suppose the total mass of the two particles involved in the collision is 10,000, but after the experiment, Xiao Yu observed that the total mass or total energy of the colliding debris actually reached 10,001.

Up to hundreds of trials, the possibility of error has been ruled out. Xiao Yu improved the accuracy of the test again and again, and also ruled out the possibility of foreign substances participating.

So where did this mass that came out of nowhere come from? Xiao Yu was puzzled. For this reason, Xiao Yu launched a long-term study, but he could not get an explanation.

There was no other way, Xiao Yu had to shelve research in this area temporarily, and only collected all the experimental data for future research.

After verifying the existence of the Higgs boson, Xiao Yu carried out research on ultra-distance communication. Perhaps it was because of the high spirits of people on happy occasions that Xiao Yu quickly made a breakthrough. Twenty years after the completion of the four large-scale particle colliders in Huantianyuan, the first ultra-distance communication instrument was built by Xiao Yu. .

Of these two instruments, one was installed at Tianyuan A by Xiao Yu, and the other was installed at the particle collider. Xiao Yu will send a signal to another instrument through this instrument on Tianyuan A, and then the other instrument will send this information back through ordinary signal transmission methods.

The two instruments are 21 million kilometers apart. According to the normal signal transmission speed, Xiao Yu will receive a response after one hundred and forty seconds. However, if the outgoing trip is an ultra-distance communication method and the return trip is an ordinary transmission method, Xiao Yu will receive a response in seventy seconds.

Counting the time for the instrument to process the signal, the maximum is no more than 70 seconds and 0.3 milliseconds.

Xiao Yu, who was on the synchronous orbit of Tianyuan A, calmed down, manipulated the instrument, and sent a signal.

Hello, Universe. My name is Xiao Yu, and I'm from Earth.
