Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 1081: Chapter 536 J-40? Are you sure this is not a joke?_1

Zhao Yi figured it out.

When he realized the instability of the uranium-235 atomic nucleus structure during the reaction process, he subconsciously assumed that under spatial obstruction, the uranium-235 nucleus structure would be unstable.

In reality, the instability was limited to the ’reaction process’ and not before the reaction occurred; the most compelling evidence for this was that prior to starting the nuclear device, the uranium rods used as material did not undergo an accelerated spontaneous fission.

Edward Witten made a lot of sense; forces act mutually, space compresses mass points, but these mass points do not disappear as a result, they certainly exhibit resistance or camouflage.

Whether it’s the former or the latter, the existence of mass points in space indicates they have undergone ’plastic deformation’ and, unless destroyed by external forces, they won’t change if the spatial compression suddenly reduces or disappears.

Therefore, the direct effect of spatial obstruction is only limited to the process of nuclear fission and the restrictions in the area outside the atomic nucleus, while the nucleus itself remains stable.

If analyzed from a microscopic perspective, basic particles like protons and neutrons, which make up the atomic nucleus, act as a barrier to spatial compression; this holds true for the combined neutrons and protons as well, with the stable state of the nucleus primarily relying on internal forces, unaffected by external spatial compression. However, should there be alterations in the nucleus with the separation of neutrons, protons, or other particles, it becomes susceptible to the effects of spatial obstruction.

The weakening of spatial obstruction leads to a more complete fission reaction.

As Zhao Yi continued to delve deeper into his research and began using mathematics to build a reaction system, he found that a decrease in the spatial compression effect within a region also resulted in decreased activity of the neutrons emitted from the atomic nucleus. This activity is reflected in their speed and the forces acting upon them; as spatial compression weakens, the ’inertia’ of neutrons on a microscopic level cannot be maintained, causing a decrease in activity.

This is like a person in the vastness of space, unaffected by gravity, unable to control their own direction, their ability to move is reduced.

Of course, neutrons don’t have consciousness; it’s simply that under the conditions of spatial obstruction, inherent physical laws are overturned, and the ’propelling’ force of space compression weakens, making it impossible to sustain ’particle inertia’ over the long term.

This also explains why, in a spatially obstructed environment, nuclear fission reactions become more complete, yet the reaction speed doesn’t increase correspondingly.

"But..."

"If the effect of spatial compression on mass points within a region weakens, leading to ejected particles becoming less active, then nuclear fusion reactions..."

"Become even more difficult?"

Nuclear fusion, the principle of which is the opposite of nuclear fission, relies on the collision and combination of particles. In an environment of spatial obstruction, as particle activity decreases, the difficulty of nuclear fusion surely increases.

"But..."

"Perhaps it’s effective? If particles become less active, nuclear fusion might be easier to control?"

Zhao Yi pursed his lips tightly, pondering carefully. frёewebnoѵēl.com

While engaged in research related to space theory, he also hoped that his theories would provide technical support and ideally translate directly into technology.

What he most hoped to see was experimental research providing theoretical support for controlled nuclear fusion.

Nuclear fusion, also known as thermonuclear fusion, fusion reaction, or thermonuclear reaction, has a reactive principle opposite to that of nuclear fission. It involves two atomic nuclei attracting and colliding with each other, resulting in the combination and amalgamation of the nuclei to form a heavier new nucleus. Although neutrons have a relatively large mass, since they are uncharged, they can escape the confines of the nucleus during the collision, and the release of numerous electrons and neutrons manifests as a release of tremendous energy.

It is the opposite nuclear reaction to fission., but comparatively, nuclear fusion offers many advantages over nuclear fission.

For instance, it’s pollution-free.

For instance, the energy released is greater and stronger.

For instance, the fuel can come from seawater and some light nuclei, so the supply of fusion fuel is inexhaustible.

Every nuclear powerhouse is striving to research controlled nuclear fusion, and all related scientists believe that controlled nuclear fusion represents the future.

Zhao Yi also hoped to find direction in researching controlled nuclear fusion from experiments in spatial obstruction, that is, anti-gravity environments.

The current results seem to be beneficial but also present side effects to the occurrence of nuclear fusion.

"In an environment of spatial obstruction, is nuclear fusion difficult to occur? The greater the obstruction, the higher the difficulty of the reaction..."

"Whether it’s nuclear fission or fusion, what happens is that particles become less active, meaning the reaction process is easier to control."

"Control is much harder than creating a reaction!"

Zhao Yi summarized briefly that the experimental outcomes were definitely beneficial; whether for nuclear fission or fusion, the highest technological challenge lies in the control of the reaction process.

With the nuclear reaction becoming easier to control, there would surely be a significant technological advancement, but the ignition of nuclear fusion would undoubtedly be greatly affected, presenting a formidable technical barrier to overcome.

The current conclusions still disappoint Zhao Yi, much like the discovery of spatial obstruction, or anti-gravity. He initially hoped for a theoretical breakthrough, only to find that particles became less active, which can be considered as increased theoretical support for technology.

"Such a pity!"

"Relying on nuclear tests to increase understanding of space would be a real breakthrough; yet there has been no gain at all."
