Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

It is not an exaggeration to say that thinking too deeply and calculating too much can drain people's vitality.

Especially when this huge computing power needs to be continued for a long time.

But there is really no choice.

Mo Dao could hand over his imperfect superconducting theory to other researchers and let them help share part of the calculation load.

But it also takes time for other researchers to learn.

Although the previous turbulence model and the current superconductivity theory belong to completely different fields,

But in terms of learning difficulty, it can be compared.

It took the most talented student in the controllable nuclear fusion team in the previous life ten years to master the end flow theory.

In this life, it will only take more time to find some people to learn the theory of superconductivity.

Even if only the results of superconducting theory are used, the calculation difficulty within the framework of superconducting theory itself is huge.

Just using it takes time.

What's more, the theory of superconductivity is not yet perfect, and there are bound to be some problems with no known solutions in the process of using it.

You just need to try to get there by yourself.

The final best solution,

It's better to try it yourself and find a room temperature superconducting material that fits his theoretical framework.

…

According to Mo Dao’s expectation,

It would be best for him to complete this matter before he turns fifty.

Otherwise, as his age increases, even if his thinking is not affected,

But energy cannot avoid being affected by physical aging.

And aging happens to be the nemesis of the huge amount of calculations in superconducting theory.

In other words, Mo Dao does not have much time left to research on room temperature superconducting materials in this life.

but,

He wasn't too eager either.

After the experiment with 03709 material,

Mo Dao didn't even immediately start trying to find the unknown room-temperature superconducting material through calculations.

Instead, he attempted to further refine his theory of superconductivity.

The previous judgment of 153.6K was a ‘coincidence’.

But there is necessity hidden in chance.

In this precise number, there is naturally hidden the secret of a more precise and complete superconducting theory.

It took Mo Dao more than a year to perfect this theory of superconductivity.

February 39,

This year, Mo Dao is 45 years old.

Mo Dao stopped further improving the superconducting theory.

Instead, we began to search for room-temperature superconducting materials where nothing was known yet.

This process, just like the research on the synthesis path of 026 materials, starts with reverse reasoning.

Based on his own theory, Mo Dao has done a lot of calculations to determine what conditions theoretically room-temperature superconducting materials should meet.

By increasing restrictive conditions, the space for room temperature superconducting materials is continuously reduced.

This is an approximation process.

Some are like using mathematical formulas to describe unknown room temperature superconductors under that theoretical framework from various angles.

However, in this seemingly uncomplicated process,

The amount of calculations that make most people’s brains go numb will lead to a dead end and basically have to start over.

The limiting conditions described by mathematical formulas are also within the framework of Mo Dao's superconducting theory.

Sometimes, you will also encounter some more basic and in-depth problems.

During this process,

The inevitable huge amount of calculation,

Mo Dao didn't do it all by himself.

What can be done with computers, Mo Dao still leaves it to the supercomputer within the Qiusuo Research Institute.

In the Quest Research Institute, which was already a giant before,

There are already more than one supercomputer, belonging to research teams in different fields.

After Mo Dao started doing this calculation work,

The scale and computing power of supercomputers have increased significantly again.

The latest supercomputer of the Qiusuo Research Institute has a computing power that has greatly surpassed the supercomputer with the highest computing power before the era of deuterium and tritium fusion.

but,

Even if supercomputing saves some ordinary calculation work,

But there are still some calculations that are too chaotic, fuzzy, jumping... and many calculations that supercomputers cannot perform.

Or it can only be done by Mo Dao himself.

Theoretically,

Before Mo Dao came back in his previous life, the Suigu plan that had already achieved some results produced ‘Suigu’.

It is more suitable to solve these calculations in the research process of room temperature superconducting materials at this time.

But this is a very contradictory question,

The Suigu Project is a product of the peak period of deuterium-tritium fusion.

Even though deuterium and tritium fusion was realized earlier in this generation,

But at this moment, there is no soil to realize Suigu's plan.

It will probably take another ten to twenty years before we can see the products of the Suigu plan.

Mo Dao couldn't wait so long in vain.

…

40 years.

Another year has passed.

This year, Mo Dao still hasn't caught the fish named 'room temperature superconductivity' in the ocean of materials.

However, there are many by-products of the research and calculation process.

Qiusuo Research Institute’s materials research team also has an extra job.

It is to synthesize some by-products of Mo Dao's research-some materials that may be superconducting materials.

These materials predicted by Mo Dao theory,

Not all materials meet Modau's theoretical predictions.

In one year, Mo Dao produced double-digit amounts of calculated materials.

That is, the material research team of the Qiusuo Research Institute is large enough. Otherwise, even if these superconducting materials are not so complicated, it is still a headache to realize them.

Among the two-digit materials, about 90% are confirmed to have superconductivity,

but there are also 10% that do not meet expectations and do not show superconductivity.

Among the materials that show superconductivity, more than 60% of them have a critical temperature below 77K.

Only a small number of them meet the standards of high-temperature superconducting materials, and there are only two materials that show superconductivity above 140K.

And there is no pattern in the materials given by Mo Dao.

There is no situation where the superconducting critical temperature continues to rise.

It is possible that the critical temperature of the material given last time was below 77K, this time it suddenly reached above 150K, and then the next time it dropped below 77K and even did not show superconductivity.

And Mo Dao is not very interested in those materials that show superconductivity.

In addition to theoretical calculations, what he did most during this period was to study those materials that did not show superconductivity.

…

Time just passed by.

Mo Dao was still emotionally stable. After all, he had encountered this kind of dead end in research many times.

Over the long years, he was able to show a considerable degree of patience for many things.

However, the research on superconducting materials in this life,

after all, did not require a lifetime like the research on turbulence theory in previous lives.

With the superconductivity theory gradually taking shape,

it was difficult to find a theoretical material that met the requirements within the theory.

But the huge amount of calculations alone was not enough to trap Mo Dao.

In the end,

after producing a large number of byproducts, Mo Dao still found the way to room-temperature superconducting materials.

After spending a time that was objectively not short,

but it was fast for the research on room-temperature superconducting materials, the theoretical research on room-temperature superconducting materials produced results.

…

At the end of the year 43.

Without much perception from the outside world,

the second-generation fusion research team that had always existed in the Qiusuo Research Institute began to expand quietly,

and the various teams in the original fusion research field rejoined it.

Most importantly, Mo Dao participated in the leading of the second-generation fusion research work.

The operation mode of the second-generation fusion research team has returned to its previous state.

Mo Dao gave each team in each field a specific requirement,

which is based on the overall design of the second-generation fusion reactor experimental reactor, and the requirements of each field are split out.

And this overall design is based on a premise - assuming that there is already a room-temperature superconducting material.

Although the overall design did not mention it, since the overall design is based on this,

the various performances of this room-temperature superconducting material also have an expected numerical range.
