Into Unscientific

Chapter 340 Farewell, 1850! (five)

"."

Look at the light curtain in front of you.

Xu Yun's heart suddenly thumped violently!

If it is said that Gauss's calculation process may still have some possibility of errors and omissions, resulting in misjudgment of the final result.

Then the emergence of the halo reminder is undoubtedly an affirmation from the rule level:

They really found the mysterious planet X!

Or rather.

Planet Nine!

And this light curtain that appeared in front of him also represented that Xu Yun could raise his hands to the sky and shout "I'm done with the mission".

But at this moment.

He didn't have the slightest intention to do so.

after all

The countdown that kept jumping reminded him of one thing all the time——

He can stay in the dungeon as "Luo Feng", or in 1851

Not much anymore.

Wheat, Old Tang, Aveline, Faraday, Gauss, Riemann, Kirchhoff, Axe.

After four hours, I will say goodbye to him forever.

Fortunately, Xu Yun has experienced the separation of dungeons in 1100 years, and he is already prepared for this kind of separation.

In addition, most of his acquaintances were present at the scene tonight, four hours was enough to do some things.

So Xu Yun forced himself to calm down, and turned his attention to Planet X in front of him again.

After all, Planet X still has a lot of links to deal with.

He thought for a moment, raised his head, and said to Gauss:

"Professor Gauss, I think the name God King is pretty good—but there are a lot of God Kings in Europe, which one do you plan to use as its alias?"

Readers who have been Gods of Europe in their previous lives should know this.

In ancient European mythology.

There are a total of six figures known as the "God King" level, and the Greek and Nordic myths are divided into half.

The three generations of god-kings in Greek mythology are:

Uranus, Cronus and Zeus.

Among them, Cronus is the youngest son of Uranus, and Zeus is the youngest son of Cronus.

Uranus was the first god to rule the universe before being overthrown by Cronus.

Cronus was the second god to rule the universe, and was later overthrown by Zeus, who became the third god to rule the universe.

True father is kind and son is filial.

The three generations of god-kings in Norse mythology are:

Bully, Paul, Odin.

As of 1851.

Uranus was given the alias of Uranus.

Cronus is the name of Saturn.

Zeus is the name of Jupiter.

Therefore, there are only three generations of god kings in Norse mythology left for Gauss to be aliased.

Of course.

It is not impossible to use Gauss’s Gauss to name it. After all, Gauss is also regarded as the king of mathematics, but it will become a high king star.

"Alias"

Hearing Xu Yun's words, Gauss just thought for a while, and quickly gave the answer:

"Just call it Odin."

When Xu Yun heard this, his pupils shrank imperceptibly.

Is this a coincidence?

mentioned earlier.

The supercomputer of the general formula of the ring system celestial body derived by the later BSC is also called Odin

Then Xu Yun coughed lightly, trying to make his expression look normal.

Continue to ask Gauss:

"Professor Gauss, can you show me the observation records of Neurastheus?"

Gauss nodded, picked up a stack of thin documents from the operating table, and handed them to Xu Yun:

"Of the more than 25,000 images, only these seven images can vaguely find traces of the King of Gods."

Xu Yun took it in the palm of his hand and looked at it.

The folded document that Gauss gave him has been temporarily revised into a simple booklet. A red circle is drawn on a certain position on each page, and a particularly small light can be vaguely seen inside the red circle. point.

At the same time, Gauss is supplementing the explanation of the screening principle:

"After we deduced the trajectory of Shenwang from the orbit of the planet and other data, we deduced its theoretical position using the true approximation angle."

"That is, where it should appear on a certain date in a certain month, which observatory will theoretically record it, and then search for the observation records of that day."

"It's just that Shenwang is too far away from the earth, and even the Schmidt telescope is very difficult to observe."

"At the same time, it is impossible for the observatory to take pictures of that star area on the corresponding day so coincidentally, so it is not easy to search, and only these seven images can be found in the end."

Xu Yun nodded in understanding.

mentioned earlier.

There is an empirical formula for the aperture of the telescope, which can easily calculate the limit magnitude ml of the telescope.

This formula is ml=2.1+5lgD.

Among them, D is the value of the aperture of the telescope in millimeters, and lg is the logarithm.

For example, the apparent magnitude of Sedna is +18.9. As long as you find the right position, later generations can find it with a 9.25-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and a CCD camera.

The brightness of Neptune must be lower than that of Sedna, but the caliber of telescopes in observatories in various places in 1851 was far from comparable to that of ordinary astronomers in later generations.

At the same time, 200 astronomical units are converted into light years, which is equal to about 0.00316.

It is said that it is in the orbit outside the solar system, but it is actually near the checkpoint at the highway intersection.

Coupled with the principle assistance of the Schmidt telescope, even if the distance of Shenwang is far, it is not difficult to simply want to see it.

Again.

It's easy to simply see a star, but it's hard to tell if it's a star or a planet because it's so still.

The topic goes back to the original place.

Although now with the assistance of the Schmidt telescope, the observation capabilities of major observatories have been greatly improved.

But the problem is that the recording method of the observatory is relatively primitive these days, and the camera can only be attached to the main mirror of the telescope to focus and shoot.

If the camera shakes slightly or encounters other disturbances, the captured image will be blurred.

Coupled with the vastness of the universe, each observatory can only take three or four photos a day.

Therefore, in the case of zooming in on the viewing distance, there is very little content they can capture-specifically, you can take out your mobile phone, adjust the focus to the maximum, and then try to take pictures of the sky. Three or four shots can only cover very small an area of ​​.

To put it bluntly, this is using the exhaustive method to draw a lottery.

Therefore, when Gauss and others were looking for the observation records corresponding to the date, the above situation appeared:

For example, what he needed was a photo from the southwest direction on June 23, but what the observatory took was a record from the northeast direction.

But if you don’t zoom in on the panoramic picture, you won’t be able to see God King—this is equivalent to observing with the naked eye.

So a pass down.

Gauss and the others only found seven photos, seven more than the fisherman's manuscript.

Then, under the guidance of Gauss, Xu Yun came to the side of the Dodoluo telescope.

"Ascending node longitude 67.223"

"Orbit eccentricity 0.38273747"

Xu Yun started to adjust the telescope slowly according to the relevant data given by Gauss.

The star area is still locked by the finder scope, and the image in the center of the main mirror is adjusted to the center of the reticle of the finder scope as much as possible. .

After the optical axes of the two lens barrels are parallel.

Xu Yun turned the tripod for the final focus.

About five minutes later.

In Xu Yun's field of vision, there appeared a faint but faintly bright dot.

And the same with Pluto.

There is almost no interference from other celestial bodies around this small point, just like Odin, the god king of Norse mythology, sitting alone at the other end of the galaxy, looking at this piece of land in the snow and ice.

Look at the dots in your field of vision.

Xu Yun frowned again.

He has observed Sedna and Eris many times, judging from Xu Yun's experience, the apparent magnitude of Shenwang is probably around +25.

Maybe even closer to +26.

The higher the magnitude value, the harder it is to see, and the one with negative magnitude is as bright as Saitama's big bald head.

For example, the apparent magnitude of the Sun is -26.7.

The apparent magnitude of the SN1006 supernova explosion that Lao Su saw at the beginning was around -7.5.

The limiting magnitude that non-space telescopes can see is about 25 to 26 magnitudes, and Hubble's limiting magnitude is 30.

But on the other hand.

A considerable part of the limit apparent magnitude of non-space telescopes is affected by atmospheric pollution.

The pollution here does not refer to the industrial pollution in a certain area, but the pollution level of the human industry as a whole for hundreds of years.

Therefore, in 1851, it was normal for Xu Yun to be able to see celestial objects with an apparent magnitude of +26 with the help of the Dodoluo telescope.

+26 ah.

Think here.

Xu Yun's little heart suddenly started beating again.

According to his original guess.

Even if the mysterious planet X, Shenwang, really exists, its apparent magnitude will probably not be lower than +20—because the diameter of Shenwang can be calculated in advance, it must be several times that of the earth.

Of course.

The calculation here does not refer to Gauss in 1850, but the theoretical value calculated by the simulated orbital equation in later generations.

At the same time.

There is also a ratio between the diameter of the star and the albedo of the star, which can determine the apparent magnitude.

The maximum albedo is 1, and the minimum can be as small as the limit, but generally the lowest is a few tenths of a percent.

Therefore, even if it is calculated according to the albedo of Eris and Sedna, the apparent magnitude of Shenwang should not be too low.

And right now its nature violates this 'common sense'.

Think here.

A word suddenly appeared in Xu Yun's mind:

Faint celestial body.

Dim celestial objects refer to stars that are close to or exceed 30 apparent magnitudes.

These celestial bodies also form some gray galaxies in the universe, called dim galaxies.

Most of these dim galaxies are the earliest formed in the universe

The first generation of galaxies.

Among them, Segue-1, Bootes I, Tucana II, and Ursa Major I are more representative, all of which are around the Milky Way.

These galaxies are all over 13 billion years old, and the known age of the universe is 13.82 billion years old.

These galaxies are also the support for the argument of a model called "cold dark matter" in later generations, that is, the framework system of non-baryon dark matter.

Such as axes and so on.

However, the large-scale axion verification experiment at the end of 2020 finally got zero results, which means that even if axions exist, they are more difficult to detect than predicted in the past. Therefore, quite a few scholars now have no confidence in the existence of axions.

And if this god king star is a dim celestial body

Of course, its age cannot be compared with other dim celestial bodies, but is it possible for it to record other ancient information?

after all

The distance of God Uranus is really too far.

Generally speaking.

All stars initially formed from a pre-stellar nebula that drew matter into it.

The outer regions are still cold, where amorphous silicates, carbon-based compounds, and ice all collect.

Once the prestellar nebula forms a protostar and then a mature star, this outer layer comes in and starts to form clumps.

over time.

These clusters start interacting, merging, migrating, and potentially popping up another cluster.

These clusters are planets.

But if the planet is extremely far away.

Some information from earlier periods may not enter the standard orbit of the eight major planets, but be "absorbed" on Shenwang.

The observation methods of later generations may be different from those in 1850, if there is a dim star or a dim-like star in the solar system

In just a few seconds, Xu Yun made a decision:

The existence of the god king star must be reported as soon as possible after returning to the dungeon!

As for how the above will deal with it or whether it will be 'shared', this is not something he can guess or decide.

It's just that rabbits are known to hold grudges.

Eagles successfully landed on the moon in 1969, but they didn't send us a piece of lunar soil until 1978.

At that time, Academician Ouyang Ziyuan was still in the Institute of Geochemistry. One day, he suddenly received a call from the Institute, saying that the Institute was organizing a research team to study moon rocks, and asked him to return to the Institute immediately.

Academician Ouyang got on his bicycle and rode back to the institute. Before he could catch his breath, he saw the moon rock in the middle of the hall.

That moon rock looks really big. Academician Ouyang had already started to imagine how many pieces this rock could be divided into, and what kind of experiments each piece could be used for...

As a result, after careful study, it was discovered that the eagle was not so generous at all:

They made a glass cover with a convex lens and put it outside the moon rock, so it looks magnified many times.

How big is this moon rock actually?

1 g.

Well, 1 gram.

And even this 1 gram of moon rock was not used for research at that time. It was divided into two halves, one half of 0.5 grams, and it is still on display in the Yanjing Planetarium (yes, we also imitated the eagle and put a piece on the rock. Magnifying glass, if you are interested, you can take a look if you have the opportunity).

Similar 'friendly moves' have happened countless times even in the field of astronomy.

More recently, there is also the data of the "New Horizons" flying over Pluto. Now the eagle is still tightly covered, and only a few dogs at home can see it.

Therefore, Xu Yun was sure that his superiors would give the same gift in return.

Reciprocity.

Don't look at the pink and tender appearance of the rabbit, but it is black when cut open

And just when Xu Yun's mood was soaring.

Bang——

Suddenly there was a dull bang in his ear.

Xu Yun subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

Only at this moment.

Not far from him, Prince Albert's side.

The stressed-out man he'd seen earlier in the parking lot, Wilshere Kennedy, who looked so happy, was now on the ground with a pool of blood running out near his head.

After a few seconds.

A male voice at least in the key of C3 suddenly sounded, resounding through the open space:

"No, there are assassins!!!!!! Hurry up and protect His Majesty!!!"

As soon as this statement came out.

There was an extremely brief silence in the open space.

In less than half a second, the silence turned into horrified shouts:

"Guns! There are guns!!!"

"Run—"

"Yeah baa"

bang bang bang—

between talking.

There were several gunshots around, and people fell to the ground one after another.

Maybe it's because we live in a peaceful age.

It wasn't until the second gunshot that Xu Yun recovered from his astonishment.

After recovering.

The first thought that popped into his head was.

How can this be?

How could there be gunshots in Cambridge University tonight?

firearms.

It's a charming weapon with a very tortuous development.

The first generation of firearms were called firearms.

Everyone is familiar with this stuff. It existed in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to bows and arrows, the cavalry in the late Ming Dynasty liked the three-eyed gun the most.

As of the 1960s, some native militias even continued to be equipped with firecrackers.

His disadvantage is that it can only be fired almost once in actual combat, and the shooting accuracy is very low.

The advantage is that it can continue to be used as an iron rod after the fight.

The musket was followed by the arquebus, and then the flintlock in the 16th and 17th centuries.

By the end of the nineteenth century, the prototype of modern firearms was born:

That is the combination of breech loading gun + polygonal rifling + smokeless powder + conical warhead.

But just like the development of weapons in various countries in later generations has different levels and rarely shares technology.

At the end of the nineteenth century, the level of development of firearms in various countries was also different.

Take Britain in 1851, for example.

The polygonal rifling did not appear until 1854, so muzzle-loading guns or even flintlock guns are commonly used in Britain today.

The most elite troops are equipped with a weapon called the 'Mine Rifle'.

This gun has a caliber of 17.83mm, a barrel length of 990mm, four rifling lines, and a twist ratio of 1:78.

The barrel is secured by three bolts to a full-length walnut stock with a brass base plate and a total length of 1397mm.

Although this kind of firearm has a certain lethality, its firing accuracy and range are both big problems.

For example, its theoretical range is 183 meters, but its effective range is only about 100 meters.

This value is almost the distance from the auditorium to the analyzer shed.

In other words, the position of the shooter must be within the field.

But the problem is

Prince Albert's appearance at the experiment site today was not a temporary idea, but a pre-arranged itinerary—one was to support Xu Yun by sitting in town, and the other was that Prince Albert was the principal of Cambridge University. Yu Li couldn't be absent.

So before the experiment started.

All guest vehicles have to go through a joint inspection checkpoint by Cambridge University Rangers and Royal Guards before they can be put into the campus.

In this situation.

There were so many gunshots in the hinterland of Trinity College?

What are you kidding?

However, no matter how many doubts Xu Yun had in his mind, there was a real situation in front of him at this moment:

The joke came true.

Seeing that the surrounding situation is getting more and more chaotic, only the sound of gunfire can be heard but the enemy cannot be seen.

Xu Yun hurriedly protected Gauss, and at the same time shouted to the surroundings:

"Mr. Thomson, you are optimistic about wheat!"

"Student Airy, you bring Mr. Airy with us!"

"Student Riemann, Mr. Faraday gave it to you!"

"Everyone hide in the auditorium together, hurry up!"

finished.

Xu Yun protected Gauss with one hand, and subconsciously prepared to pull Aveline with the other hand:

"Also, Avelyn, we. Huh? Avelyn?!"

Xu Yun's left hand scratched the air a few times randomly, but nothing was caught.

He turned his head in astonishment.

I saw my left hand side

No one was there.
