Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Controlled nuclear fusion? !!

This really sounds like a pretty interesting topic.

Hearing Professor Li Qingqing's mention of this matter, Lu Zhou immediately became keenly interested.

"Can I go in and visit?"

Professor Klitzing smiled and said happily, "If you're interested, of course, no problem."

Following Professor Keli Qing's footsteps, Lu Zhou stepped into the interior of the building.

Originally, he thought that this place was a place with a high level of confidentiality, but Professor Klitzin just swiped the door with his work card, and then took him in easily.

Taking note of Lu Zhou's confused sight, Professor Keli Qing smiled and said, "There is nothing to keep secret. You can even retrieve the papers about it in the library of the Shishi Library. As for the access control, it is mainly to prevent idle staff. Come in, the law and order problem in Berlin has been serious lately. "

Lu Zhou joked. "I thought it was confidential."

Professor Klitzing laughed: "Confidential? Rest assured, don't say you are in that kind of place, I can't go in by myself."

Contrary to the conspiracy theories of nuclear fusion technology described in most stand-alone literature, although various countries' cooperative research in the field of controlled nuclear fusion has also opened up small stoves for private work, most of the research results obtained are basically public. .

According to the iter agreement signed in Paris in November 2006, at each international fusion energy conference, research teams from various countries will report on the latest research progress.

As for why the research is cooperative, the reason is simple.

Because the difficulty of this project is far beyond all the scientific research projects that have occurred in the history of the Manhattan Project, the Human Genome Project, and the Apollo Project. The ultimate realization of controllable fusion technology is not the research capability of a country at all. You can do it alone.

Under such a premise, the benefits of building a car behind closed doors are far less than the benefits of actively participating in the iter plan and taking the lead in it.

For example, the all-superconducting tokamak (east) built by Huaguo plays a pivotal role in the iter project.

As for the distribution of benefits after the success of the project, it is another game. I can't even see the solution to the problems at hand, let alone those after that.

In fact, neither the Tokamak nor the design of the stellar is theoretically very secretive, and this is why Professor Keliqing was able to bring Lu Zhou to visit.

The only part that involves confidentiality is, at best, laser fusion for "ignition".

Because one of the main functions of laser fusion is to simulate a hydrogen bomb explosion, the iter plan is also in principle played by countries outside the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.

However, the research on this part is obviously invisible here, and the research on confidentiality is naturally carried out in a confidential place.

Following Professor Keliqing all the way to the core area of ​​the building, looking at the strangely shaped object located in the middle of the open space, Lu Zhou couldn't help but said with emotion: "This thing is like a twist."

It may not be enough to use a twist to make a metaphor. This twist has to be twisted into a circle and seamlessly connected end to end.

As far as geometric description is concerned, it is a Mobius ring transformed continuously in three-dimensional space.

In this ring-shaped orbit wound by the coil, the plasma can all rely on the constraints of the external field for stable operation.

In contrast, the Tokamak device, which is opposite to a stellar, relies on the coupling of an external magnetic field with a magnetic field generated by a plasma current. If the plasma is disturbed or becomes unstable due to some unknown physical phenomenon, the entire system will be at risk of collapse.

In theory, continuous ignition of a stellar is easier to control than pulse ignition of a Tokamak device.

However, although the star simulator has so many advantages, it has a fatal disadvantage, that is, the requirements for processing technology are extremely harsh, and the engineering amount of the entire set of equipment is extremely complicated.

Even if the current orbit is already complicated enough in the view of Luzhou, for the entire nuclear fusion device, this is only one of the above parts. And this part alone, I am afraid that in addition to Germany, there are only a handful of countries that can be processed.

This is also one of the reasons why Hua Guo pressed all its chips on the tokamak device in the choice of technical route.

Professor Klitzing joked: "Is it? I think it's more like a doughnut coated with cream."

Lu Zhou glanced at the old man unexpectedly, but he did not expect that he could understand the word "Twist".

"This is the plasma orbit replaced from the spiral stone 7-x," said Professor Klizin, looking at the device in front of him. "As for the complete body of the spiral stone 7-x, in the eastern city of Greifsval D. If you are interested, after the report is over, I can take the time to take you to see, there is a similar experiment over there recently. "

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Really? Then I can remember this sentence."

If this is the case, it is indeed an opportunity not to be missed.

Although controllable nuclear fusion is outside his research field, he is still full of interest in this kind of thing that usually exists only in science fiction movies.

However, no matter how interesting a research project is, it is not as important as the work at hand.

After visiting the Max Planck Lab in Berlin, Lu Zhou returned to the Bernitz Hotel and began to make final preparations for the forthcoming report.

In this way, time passed day by day, and soon reached the day when the report began.

According to the original plan, the report will be held at Humboldt University.

In the early morning of Saturday, Lu Zhou got up early and arrived at the report site one hour in advance.

When he arrived at the conference hall, the entire conference hall was almost fully occupied, and his head was dazzled to look at it.

In the light of academic openness, the Max Planck Institute that presided over the report did not restrict the eligibility of attendees. It only arranged seat numbers for those who were determined to participate in the report, so it was not just those who were paying attention to this event Scholars from the seminar, doctors and masters from major universities and research institutes in Berlin also came over to make fun.

Less than half an hour before the report, many people even sat on the aisles of the corridor.

This briefing has been expected by the theoretical chemistry community for two full months.

This is a beautiful misunderstanding. UU reading www.uukanshu.com still means new chemistry ...

Everyone was staring closely at the big screen behind the podium, waiting to witness this historic moment.

Standing next to the rostrum, President Strahman glanced at the tight seats in the venue and instructed the staff to bring some idle chairs to the next meeting room and put them behind the venue.

After doing this, he turned to Lu Zhou, who was copying data into the multimedia desk, and turned his attention to the inquiry.

"How are you preparing?"

Lu Zhou said easily, "Basically ok."

"Come on," gave Lu Zhou a thumbs-up, and President Strahman didn't say anything extra, but simply sent his blessing, "Hope all of us today can witness history."

With a confident smile, Lu Zhou gently adjusted the tie on his chest.

"That's for sure."
