How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 469 This result is not ideal

On the outermost planet in the Kuiper belt, a piece of metal tends to be flat in the vacuum environment, with a certain thickness spread out and fixed on the surface, with a biological body attached to each of the front and back sides, which is about the size of two human heads.

Among these two organisms, one is an annihilation of positive and negative matter, and the other is an ordinary piece of meat. This is an experiment to test the ability of the proton lattice to block gamma rays.

"start!"

Accompanied by the arrival of a radio frequency band from far to near, the positive and negative matter inside the biological body is annihilated, and a huge amount of gamma rays are released, and impact the proton lattice body at close range.

A dazzling scorching sun rose from the horizon of the planet's surface, and with the passing of the light, eight tons of matter were annihilated and evaporated.

In a large area on the planet, not even a single cell survived, and as far as the eye can see, it is a lake made of lava. Since there is no atmospheric environment, there is no shock wave, and the energy of gamma rays scours the material layer on the surface and underground .

"Quickly extinguish these lavas, and don't let these things interfere with the results of the experiment."

It was another radio communication command, and the still intact rhizomes quickly moved on the surface, using low-temperature substances such as liquid nitrogen to forcibly cool down the lava in large quantities, and reoccupy the lost area.

And the living organisms wandering in the space, after this communication was sent, began to go to the very center of this lava lake, where the positive and antimatter annihilation energy was released.

Then this biological body close to the surface of the planet from the universe saw such a scene - in this large lava lake, there is a small isolated island, the area of ​​the isolated island is exactly the area of ​​the proton lattice body, the isolated island Adjacent is the lava, very hot and hot, like a boiling soup.

Before the lava engulfed the isolated island, the organism landed from the sky, captured the proton lattice body, raised the altitude again, and sent the experimental body to a safe place.

The collectors were waiting there early, and immediately after the arrival of the proton lattice body, they began to confirm the situation of the organisms with the proton lattice body as a shield.

"Why, how could this be..."

"It shouldn't be, why does one-third of its cells die?"

The proponent of the original plan looked at the damage information in a daze, which did not match the physical model it established. The organism itself should not be damaged by gamma rays.

"Could it be that the gamma-ray photon knocked the proton away?"

"...It's possible, but one-third of the damage is still too much, and it should be a small probability to crash."

"We should ask about it. Its understanding of knowledge is higher than ours, and its brains are more flexible than ours."

"I agree."

Connected to Hesi's communication, and delivered the experiment information directly to Ming.

"Of course it's because the gamma rays passed through, it's as simple as that." Si replied to the fellows who were conducting the experiment.

"Is it because the proton is knocked away by the gamma photon?"

The proponent of the plan asked Si, and if Si gave an affirmative answer, then the collectors would consider thickening the proton lattice body by two more layers, so as to completely avoid this kind of situation from happening.

However, Si's answer surprised him.

"No, because your proton lattice body still has gaps, and a very small part of the gamma photons passed through the gaps between the protons, hurting the living organisms hiding behind, that's all."

"Huh? The distance between protons is already smaller than the orbital radius of electrons at the lowest energy level. Shouldn't gamma photons bounce off?"

The person who proposed this explanation couldn’t help being stunned on the spot, because the explanation Si gave didn’t match its physical model. It should be impossible for gamma photons to pass through the gap between protons, because it is lower than electrons. Orbital radius, Pauli's exclusion law won't allow the particle to go through there.

It is also a strange rhetorical question to hear the answer from the proposer.

"Bouncing off? Why would it bounce off? Non-electrical gamma photons will not interact with protons electrically. Unless these protons can be next to each other, it is impossible to block gamma rays 100%."

After a moment of silence, combined with the actual experimental data, the proposer finally made a decision.

"...In other words, my physical model is wrong?"

"I want to know the reason for my mistake, Si, send me the information."

Without hesitation, he pointed out the reason why gamma rays pass through the proton lattice body in the results of his experiments on his fellows. The reason is that the carrier of electromagnetic waves is photons instead of electrons. Photons belong to bosons, and bosons are There is no need to follow Pauli’s exclusion law. In quantum mechanics, this law only applies to fermions, so gamma photons can pass through the gaps in the proton lattice. The collectors who participated in the experiment completely misunderstood this point up.

After digesting the information, the proposer of the plan was greatly disappointed, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost, as did the other collectors.

"It turns out that's the case, thanks to the fact that I was so excited before..."

It's not that I'm disappointed with the performance of the proton lattice. Even if it can't block all the gamma photons, it's much stronger than the previous thick lead element protection layer, because the protons are dense enough, and a large part of the gamma photons After the impact, it turned back, so that the experimental body that should have turned into coke survived with only one-third of the cell necrosis. It can be said that this kind of proton lattice body is very useful.

The disappointment of the collectors is mainly due to the fact that the expectations were too high at the beginning, and the gap could not be accepted at once. The image is described as a group of top students who sighed after the mock exam, holding a pile of test papers with more than 90 points and muttering, "this That question, that question shouldn't lose points', 'I could have gotten 100 points', 'I failed the test' and so on.

"In other words, can't we continue to increase the pressure and narrow the gap between the protons so that they are next to each other? In that case, we can definitely resist gamma photons 100%." ​​Some collectors proposed such an idea.

"Leaving aside how to work in the extreme environment that creates that stress, we have no way to store and use it even if it is produced."

Other collectors explained that such a state is too extreme, the entire surface is full of protons with no gaps, the electromagnetic force between the protons will overflow, and the only thing is to maintain the pressure to ensure that they will not recombine with electrically neutral particles. This is a big problem, and there are many reasons to consider, such as nuclear fusion...

Today's proton lattice body is a metastable structure. Protons occupy the positions of electrons. According to Pauli's exclusion law, electrons cannot form hydrogen elements with protons. This state can be maintained as long as the pressure does not decrease.
