Chapter 392 Neutron Squeezing

"Huhu!" Liu Jingguan collapsed on the sofa.

"Just wait and see, I didn't know that I thought you were going to break the void and ascend to the immortal world." Fei Anming teased while making tea.

"Haha, almost. It feels like a sudden enlightenment."

"You don't know how to smoke Shenxiansan, right?" Fei Anming said with a smile.

"Take a break and read what I wrote before we talk." Liu Jingguan recovered a little, quickly got up, and saved the data in the holographic computer.

"Drink a cup of tea first. Don't collapse your body by then." Fei Anming handed a cup of hot tea to Liu Jingguan, who was reading the information.

However, Liu Jingguan was not in the mood to drink. Instead, he was looking at the holographic display screen in front of him attentively. Apparently, he had an inspiration just now and used brain control to input a lot of information into the computer.

Fei Anming on the side also began to study. After a while, Fei Anming's eyes lit up: "Your idea is very strange, and it points directly to the essence of nuclear fusion."

"Isn't it exciting?" Liu Jingguan asked.

Fei Anming nodded: "From a principle perspective, this solution is perfect. The only thing that needs to be considered is how to output energy, or how to convert energy into electrical energy."

On Liu Jingguan's holographic display, there is a model he conceived. This device uses a different principle from mainstream nuclear fusion power generation.

In theory, mainstream nuclear fusion power generation, whether it is magnetically bound tokamak, stellarator, inertia-bound laser ignition, or alternative inverse field nuclear fusion device, these theories are all based on the principle of high-temperature nuclear fusion.

What is high-temperature nuclear fusion?

This starts with the principle of nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the process in which the nuclei of two atoms fuse together to release neutrons and photons, so nuclear fusion is also called nuclear fusion.

So how do you make two atomic nuclei fuse together? The answer is temperature and pressure.

The higher the temperature, the more intense the movement of atoms. When the temperature reaches a critical point, the nuclei may fuse together.

Just like a car collision at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, the two cars may be scraped; but if two cars collide at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour, the two cars will most likely be shattered to pieces.

The same is true for atomic nuclei at high temperatures. The higher the temperature, the faster they move, and they may fuse together once they collide.

Generally, D-T (deuterium and tritium) nuclear fusion requires a high temperature of at least 100 million degrees Celsius to start; while D-D (deuterium and deuterium) nuclear fusion requires 1 billion degrees Celsius to start.

This temperature alone is enough, and there are also issues such as plasma control and protection against neutron irradiation, so the theoretical nuclear fusion device at high temperatures is very complicated.

As for the pressure route, the most typical application is the hydrogen bomb, which uses a uranium layer to wrap the hydrogen bomb fuel core and generates a high-temperature and high-pressure environment through nuclear fission of uranium, thereby reaching the critical temperature and pressure of nuclear fusion.

As for why scientists do not consider using high-voltage routes for nuclear fusion power generation, the main reason is that they cannot create pressure that reaches the critical point of nuclear fusion, or they can create this pressure, but cannot effectively control this pressure (nuclear fission pressure).

Of course, Mao Xiong once had a big idea, that is, the underground nuclear fusion power generation solution. Build a reaction chamber underground, and then directly throw a hydrogen bomb into the reaction chamber to detonate, using the explosion energy to generate electricity.

The problem is that this plan not only requires a small-yield hydrogen bomb, but also requires issues such as nuclear pollution, power generation efficiency, and sustainability of power generation.

All I can say is that this idea is very silly, extremely simple and crude.

Liu Jingguan’s plan is based on the pressure method. How does it work?

Use NN-8-1 material to make a vacuum "cylinder", and then use the activated shield principle of the shield generator to directly inject NN-8-1 into the vacuum cylinder.

NN-8-1 material can instantly produce neutron ionization that is difficult for conventional substances to resist in the condensed matter activation state.

As long as the nuclear fusion reaction material DD or DT is filled in the vacuum cylinder, once the NN-8-1 condensed matter is activated, the entire vacuum cylinder will be quickly filled.

At this time, the DD or DT in the vacuum cylinder will be continuously pressed until there is no way out and it will be ionized by neutrons. If it is only neutron ionization, at most the reaction material will turn into plasma, but if the condensed matter NN-8- 1. Will the substance continue to fill?

The consequence of continued filling of condensed matter NN-8-1 is that the plasma continues to be compressed. When this compression reaches the endurance limit of the atomic nucleus, the atomic nucleus can only be forcibly pressed together by the overlord.

In this way, nuclear fusion is completed.

The next step is to figure out how to convert energy into electrical energy.

"Jing Guan, I think your idea has great potential." Fei Anming said after reading the information.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Liu Jingguan asked with a smile.

"Think about the principle of nuclear fusion."

Liu Jingguan asked in confusion: "What's wrong with the principle of nuclear fusion? DD or DT releases energy to fusion at high temperature and high pressure. Is there any problem with this?"

"Theoretically, all substances can undergo nuclear fusion." Fei Anming reminded.

"All materials?" Liu Jingguan's eyes suddenly widened. Only then did he react: "Yes, all materials can undergo nuclear fusion. As long as the pressure is high enough, even iron atoms can be fused together."

"You are a fan of the authorities and are too obsessed with DD and DT." After Fei Anming finished speaking, he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

"One word wakes up the dreamer, let's drink tea instead of wine." Liu Jingguan said with a smile, picking up the teacup on the table.

"Then congratulations on getting the Galaxy Award as soon as possible."

"Haha, we may be able to create a new era of nuclear energy."

Fei Anming put down his tea cup and asked, "By the way, your plan needs a resounding name. What do you plan to call it?"

"Name?" Liu Jingguan thought for a while: "How about calling it the neutron pressing method? When the device comes out in the future, it can be called a neutron pressing device, or a neutron press."

"Neutron squeezing? Yes, it's a good name. This plan is to use degenerate materials to squeeze atoms and produce nuclear fusion reactions, which is exactly what the name suggests." Fei Anming clapped his hands and praised it.

"Next, shall we study and implement this plan?" Liu Jingguan asked.

Fei Anming touched his chin: "Report this matter to the chairman first and see what the chairman's arrangements are."

"Okay." Liu Jingguan also knew that this matter was not trivial, so informing Huang Junjie first was a necessary procedure.

Huang Junjie was working on documents in the study when a holographic communication request popped up on the holographic display in front of him.

When he saw it, it turned out to be Fei Anming, the director of the Qinling Plasma Research Institute. Since Fei Anming could make a holographic communication call, it was definitely not a small matter.

In the Galaxy Consortium, many high-level executives have the authority to directly communicate with Huang Junjie holographically, but this authority should not be used unless it is necessary. Once it is used, it will definitely be a big deal.

[Agree] The holographic communication started instantly, and the two of them seemed to appear in front of each other.

"What's the matter with you, An Ming?" Huang Haojie asked.

"Chairman, I have something very important to report to you. I will send you a document first." Fei Anming sent a document.

After Huang Junjie received it, he immediately opened the information and started browsing.
