Red Soviet Union

Since the beginning of the Cold War and the establishment of the Berlin Wall, the University of Berlin has never been to so many Western scholars, nor has it held such an international seminar.

As the host of the conference, Flix stood on the podium and addressed the audience: "Experts, scholars, friends, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the University of Berlin to participate in this conference. For the discussion of the post-nuclear war environment, first of all, we asked Paul and John to introduce their theories to all of us again.”

Not only scientists on environmental issues, but also diplomatic envoys and officials from various countries, educators, business leaders, foreign policy makers and military leaders were among the delegates. For example, even NATO sent an attaché to this meeting, and of course, the US military was absent.

In fact, the research results of Paul and John have been published in the Swedish magazine "Environment", but many people present, except for people in the scientific community, are afraid of this purely academic issue. is not interested.

Therefore, when Paul and John explained their research results, many people present fell into contemplation, and this kind of contemplation was filled with fear.

In particular, an American scientist present was very clear.

Cornell University astronomer Carl Sagan! He has been engaged in space weather research for a long time. As early as 1971, after the U.S. "Sailor 9" space probe entered the orbit of Mars, it sent back a photo of Mars covered by dust from its storm, which caught his attention and carried out a study of this phenomenon. Follow-up monitoring for 3 consecutive months.

Carr was surprised to find that the dust rising into Mars' upper atmosphere absorbs a lot of sunlight and heats this layer of atmosphere, leaving the surface dark and cold.

At that time, Carl thought deeply about this, and now, when the report of the two of John came out, Carl suddenly realized, and could not help but blurt out: "Nuclear winter, this means the arrival of nuclear winter!"

Winter is cold, and the dust and smoke clouds from nuclear explosions will prevent sunlight from reaching, which means the arrival of nuclear winter!

The global temperature is quite sensitive, even if the average temperature in the world drops by one degree, it will have catastrophic consequences!

Nuclear winter! This term came out of Karl's mouth, and historically, it was Karl who studied this kind of problem and formally proposed this theory in 1983. But now, Carl has not had time to study these! Because the U.S. economy is extremely sluggish, this kind of fringe discipline, scientific research that does not generate economic benefits, rarely gets research funding. The U.S. finances are already very poor, and only research similar to shale oil mining will it get big. strength.

Therefore, Carl can only honestly teach and educate people in the university, and even the environmental magazine, the school did not ask him to subscribe, he has only heard about this theory now, but he reacted immediately!

"Mr. Carl, you are right. After careful research, the final result is nuclear winter!" Flix is ​​quite curious. After all, this theory was actually proposed by General Andrei and handed over to The research topic of the University of Berlin, General Andrei said at that time, this theory is called the nuclear winter theory!

Flix admired General Andre immensely. Several years ago, when he took his students to the Far East for an internship, he had a chance encounter with General Andre in the western restaurant. Unfortunately, at that time, Flix's student Among them, there was actually a spy from the West who almost caused harm to General Andrei, and General Andrei, who has grown from an ordinary pilot to an important figure in the Soviet Union in the past few years, has a wide range of knowledge.

It's just that Felix didn't expect that this American astronomer could actually come up with this term!

Concealing his surprise, Flix continued: "We at the University of Berlin have simulated the whole process with a computer. Now, please let us show it to everyone."

Computer simulation! Hearing Felix's words, I don't know how many experts and scholars have envious expressions on their faces.

Computer simulation! Of course you need a supercomputer! You must know that in this era, computers are definitely not as common as later generations, and even in universities, computer courses are considered new. And if you want to use computer simulation, microcomputer is not enough. Generally speaking, only supercomputer can carry out simulation.

For example, if you want to make a nuclear bomb, you need to use a supercomputer to simulate a nuclear explosion in theory, which can greatly speed up the research process and prevent detours~www.readwn.com~ It can be said that supercomputers are also strategic weapons , is a national-level weapon. I really did not expect that the University of Berlin would be able to apply for the use of supercomputers!

The lights in the conference room dimmed. On the ceiling of the conference room, a high-power crt projector began to gradually brighten, projecting the picture on the screen. At the same time, it also wore a commentary. Fortunately, the commentary uses an international standard. English.

e=mc2 (2 is the square, the upper right corner is marked), Einstein's mass-energy conversion equation, which means that the interior of the atom contains a huge amount of energy. When this energy is released, it is equivalent to opening at the same time. Pandora's box! This formula first appeared on the screen, and then Einstein's head portrait. It can be said that Einstein single-handedly promoted the emergence of the nuclear bomb. At the same time, in his later years, Einstein was blaming himself for the appearance of the nuclear bomb.

Now, there are tens of thousands of nuclear weapons in the world. At the same time, we are all living in the shadow of nuclear weapons. Nuclear deterrence is not just deterrence. Under special circumstances, it may turn into a real nuclear war. , so, what we use computer simulation this time is the result of the explosion of a nuclear weapon with an assumed equivalent of 5 gigatons of tnt. Of course, this is only a fraction of the global arsenal. If we calculate according to the equivalent of 500,000 tons, this is exactly 10,000.

With the voice of the narrator, a three-dimensional figure of the earth appeared on the screen, and the positions where the lights flickered represented the distribution of nuclear bombs. It can be seen that almost all of them are concentrated in the northern hemisphere, while Europe is the hardest hit area!

Then, there were beautiful mushroom clouds blooming on the screen. However, in the eyes of those present, these mushroom clouds were all devil-like beings! They will devour the whole earth!
