Research starts with PhD students

Chapter 227 Isn’t This a UFO?
"This technology can be fully applied in the fields of aviation and aerospace, and can support the manufacture of spacecraft that fly into the universe. It also has great military significance."

"It has great military significance. In the future, there is no need to consider aircraft engines for fighter planes. There is no need to invest in this area. Gravity technology is much more advanced."

"For a gravity aircraft, we also need to consider the power issue, right? We still need an engine..."

"I think the more urgent problem is the energy problem. Your current battery technology probably won't be able to support flying for too long..."

"It depends on the data, but it is certain that the energy consumption is high."

"What will the aircraft look like when it is manufactured?"

"It seems to depend on that ring-shaped anti-core..."

In the office, three teachers continued to discuss the issue of technology transformation.

They have two teachers who are from the military, and one who is from the Bureau of Science, Technology and Industry, and their focus is naturally on the military and aerospace fields.

Zhang Shuo went to the laboratory to celebrate with others, and after explaining the follow-up work, he also came to the office.

Teacher Wang immediately asked, "Zhang Shuo, can your reaction tube only be made into a ring?"

"I mean, can it be transformed into another shape? Application transformation also needs to consider environmental adaptation issues."

Zhang Shuo said, "The ring shape is the most efficient. The high temperature and high activity of the medium ions inside the pipe will cause the ions to move continuously under the influence of the magnetic field, and the ring shape is the easiest to control."

"In fact, it's like the accelerator of a particle collider, which is also circular, but the requirements are not as high."

He then explained, "If it is a square or other angular shape, the magnetic field cannot be effectively controlled, and the active ions inside will frequently collide with the surface of the pipe, resulting in a large amount of energy loss. We need the activity of the particles inside to remain stable."

The three teachers listened and nodded.

Teacher Li suddenly said, "So an elliptical ring is also possible, right?"

"It's no problem to adjust the magnetic field."

Teacher Zhao said impatiently, "What's the point of you always talking about the shape of the reaction tube? The aircraft manufactured with the support of new technology must be different from the original aircraft."

"Original fighter jets had to conform to aerodynamics, but now we have gravity technology, which allows us to accelerate and take off directly without having to consider gravity at all."

"A ring is the most efficient and stable shape, so it's natural to use this shape."

As he spoke, he began to imagine, "If it is a ring, there must be a battery in the middle. What will it look like after it is built?"

"Isn't this a UFO?" Teacher Wang immediately responded.

Others thought it did look like a UFO.

This technology requires a continuous supply of electricity, and the energy part will take up a lot of space, just like ordinary electric cars, the battery takes up a lot of space.

A ring, plus the energy supply part in the center...

Isn't it the shape of a UFO?
Teacher Zhao grinned and said in surprise, "So, the alien spaceships don't use this technology!"

……

The questions that the three teachers thought of were also thought of by many people in the laboratory.

After the experiment confirmed that it had achieved results, many people began to talk about the issue of technology application, because their research was to find solutions with low demand, which was originally aimed at technology transformation.

The experiment has achieved results, and there is still some distance before technological application. However, practice has provided the most critical technology for application, and there are no insurmountable barriers to subsequent applications.

So you can imagine it.

Based on a simple imagination of the experimental situation, one can immediately associate the ring shape of the reaction pipe with the UFO.

This sounds very interesting.

"Maybe we and the aliens use the same technology?"

"It looks like a coincidence, but maybe not... do aliens really exist?"

"It's a bit scary now..."

Although they said it was scary, in fact no one took it seriously because aliens were just rumors after all, and some picture evidence on the Internet was eventually proven to be false.

In addition, there is no point in considering this aspect. What is important is that the experiment was completed and they developed the technology.

When discussing the application, Wang Qiang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up, "Have you paid attention to reports from abroad? Because of Professor Zhang Shuo's theory, there are already differences in research directions at home and abroad."

"Foreign countries do not recognize the origin theory, nor do they recognize our research..."

Everyone else thought it was funny.

They participated in the experiment throughout, and some of them also took part in the previous theoretical verification. They all had great confidence in Zhang Shuo's theory.

It is very interesting that this theory, which has been verified by experience, is still considered wrong by many people and even rejected by foreign institutions.

Before Wang Qiang finished speaking, he continued, "Look at these comments."

"Although we are on the same Earth, the laws of physics are different. In China, the four great forces have a basic connection, and the electromagnetic force can be converted into gravity."

"They can use this to build gravity spacecraft, and their mysterious high-end aircraft all use this technology."

"The UFO that's going viral around the world is likely made in China."

He read several sentences in a row, and everyone else burst into laughter.

If other people heard the same information, they would find it ironic and feel very uncomfortable.

The laboratory staff were different. They had just developed gravity manufacturing technology, and the basic data requirements were not high. After hearing the same words, they felt as if the team's research had been "prejudged".

"These people's reports are really accurate. Foreign media are just different."

“They anticipated our experiments and the direction of our research development.”

"It's amazing. It's really amazing."

Many people laughed.

Of course, the people in the laboratory are not just chatting and laughing. Most of their energy is still focused on work. Because the experiment has achieved great results, everyone in the laboratory, including the project team, will become very busy for some time to come.

Write reports, organize materials, test equipment, and keep detailed records...

A series of tasks must be completed carefully, and subsequent detailed records of individual work must be kept and submitted together with the report.

Work records are very important and will be kept as archives.

These will become valuable information.

The project of Zhang Shuo's team belongs to the Science and Technology Department, which is actually directly led by superiors. The Science and Technology Department, the military, the Science and Technology Industry Bureau, and even higher-level teachers are all very concerned about the project.

Three days after the experiment ended, a higher-level teacher came to the theoretical center.

The senior teacher who came visited the laboratory, learned about the experimental situation, and then expressed his condolences to all the project staff and praised their work.

In his speech, the teacher also used the word "great" to describe the experimental work.

After making a series of affirmations, the teacher promised to give each person a credit and guaranteed full support for subsequent research.

After the senior teacher left, everyone in the lab was full of energy.

They continued to work hard and do their job.

……

At the same time, the international denial of the "Source Point Theory" reached a climax.

At first, it was just a few officials who made suggestions. Their purpose was to restrict the country's development in cutting-edge physics, which meant "since we are going in the wrong direction, we should go in the wrong direction."

Later, scientific research institutions and physics organizations announced that they would not accept the "Source Point Theory" and decided to terminate their cooperation with the Institute of High Energy Physics, as well as domestic universities and institutions.

This interruption is mainly in the fields of theoretical physics and high-energy physics.

Theoretical physics focuses on the basic force relationship model and source point theory.

High energy physics focuses on research related to chaotic force fields and particle pair experiments.

Now the influence is even greater. Many top international universities have announced that they will not accept "Source Point Theory", and some academic journals will not accept papers on the results of basic force relationship research.

The situation in China is exactly the opposite.

The country does not accept research in the direction of "chaotic field theory" and "high-dimensional dark matter theory", and fully supports research on "source point theory" and basic force relations.

In academia, there are indeed national boundaries.

Europe is very opposed to the "Source Point Theory", perhaps because they have the largest high-energy physics organization - the Organization for Nuclear Research.

The nuclear organization decided not to accept the "Source Point Theory", agreed to the research direction of "Chaotic Field Theory", and applied for the transformation of the hadron collider at one time, which was equivalent to setting the general direction for high-energy physics.

In fact, disputes about theoretical and experimental directions have always existed within the nuclear organization. Even though they publicly supported the "chaotic field theory" and denied the "source point theory", there are still many people who think that this should not be done.

For example, Fabiola Gianotti, director of the experimental center.

Fabiola Gianotti is the number one decision-maker in the Organization of Nuclear Research. She advocates cooperation with the Institute of High Energy Physics and research in multiple directions, rather than completely denying one theory and supporting another.

Theory is not 100% correct.

Zhang Shuo's "Origin Point Theory" has not been disproven, so how can it be directly denied? Isn't this also equivalent to artificially drawing a boundary?
Those scholars all say that it is China's scientific research support policy that sets boundaries for physical theories, but in fact, their practice is also to set boundaries.

However, Fabiola Gianotti's thoughts are not important. She is indeed the number one person in charge of decision-making in the nuclear organization, but she is not a top theoretical physicist and is more of a manager.

The top physicists within the Nuclear Organization, that is, the pure academic school, all believe that Mike Yoel's direction is correct, and Zhang Shuo's "new physics" is like a made-up story, which is so fake that it cannot be more fake.

In the office on the second floor of the experimental center, Gianotti was talking to Castello, the director of the data center, "I don't know why this happened. Our decision was influenced by politics, but academia itself should not be affected in this way."

"We are the largest and most influential high-energy physics research team in the world, and we don't need to choose between two theoretical directions."

"Of course I agree with you."

Roberto Castello pursed his lips and said helplessly, "But there is no way, Fabiola, you have to understand that we are not the so-called top scholars. Those directors all support the Chaos Field Theory."

Gianotti only complained a few words. She knew, of course, that she could not change the opinions of the directors. When it came to the direction of academic research, their opinions did not count at all.

Although she is the organization's number one decision-maker, she is more of a manager, responsible for reaching some cooperation and raising funds for the organization, rather than making decisions on academic direction.

The directors of the nuclear organization are the authoritative figures in academic fields.

These people cannot be offended.

For one thing, they are all top physicists.

At the same time, they are also representatives of various national institutions. The Nuclear Organization itself was established through cooperation among dozens of countries and institutions. It is a joint organization in the field of high-energy physics.

Even if she made a strong decision, it would be meaningless because those countries and institutions would only listen to the opinions of top scholars.

……

United States, Department of Energy.

Peter Carlson was solemnly flipping through a document while listening to the report of the foreign intelligence officer. "Last week, there were two very special pieces of news."

"One is that there were periodic smoke explosions in a deserted area in the west."

"We believe that they are testing a very special type of bomb, which appears to produce a large amount of smoke and looks like a chemical weapon."

"But why are they researching chemical weapons? It doesn't seem necessary."

The intelligence officer shook his head. "Of course, this has little to do with the Ministry of Energy. The most important thing is the second one, the theoretical center under construction in China's Sudong, and Professor Zhang Shuo's project team."

"Several important teachers have visited the project team in the past few days. Based on some external information, it is likely that the project team has achieved new results, and they are very significant results."

“But the details are still uncertain. Maybe they will publish it?”

Peter Carlson frowned and asked, "How likely is it?"

"More than 85 percent."

"That's already very high." Peter Carlson's brows furrowed even more.

This news is indeed directly related to the Department of Energy.

Fermilab is a scientific research institution under the Department of Energy, and some other cutting-edge physics institutions are also affiliated with the Department of Energy.

Peter Carlson thought for a moment and said, "So, they have achieved new experimental results in the direction of the mechanical relationship theory?"

"I know about this and have paid special attention to it. Fermilab has submitted a project application hoping to conduct research in the direction of Professor Zhang Shuo's theory, and the initial application for funding is as high as $10 billion."

"There are also many controversies internationally, but more people tend to favor the new theory, which seems to be related to string theory..."

"If Professor Zhang Shuo's research has a breakthrough, that means his theoretical direction has great potential, right?"

He had a chat with his colleagues about this issue.

When they heard that Zhang Shuo's team had made a breakthrough in their research, they actually didn't care at all, because it was just a breakthrough in theoretical experiments.

High-energy physics and theoretical physics are too far away from existing technology. Even if we explore a new physics, how long will it take to transform it into technology?
Twenty years, fifty years?

This is already good.

There are some theoretical technologies that cannot be transformed into practical applications even after hundreds of years.

What Peter Carlson cares about is Fermilab, because Fermilab is under his jurisdiction, so he naturally hopes that the laboratory can develop well.

If the laboratory chooses the wrong direction, all subsequent research and investment will become meaningless.

This is related to Peter Carlson's political achievements.

Carlson thought about it for a moment, then started rummaging through the pile of documents and found the application report submitted by Fermilab.

Then he called Leah Meminga and said, "Submit a new report."

"I suddenly feel that artificially created gravity is attractive, and it is worth considering..."
