Chapter 999: Chapter 500 Anti-Gravity Experiment, Success!_1

School of Sciences, physics laboratory.

Several professors were gathered to the left side of the room, next to a large, oval-shaped experimental device.

Lines and wires were strewn all over the place, and the oval device consisted of several cold covers, a large bundle of wires, and meters, with various instruments around the periphery of the cold covers.

The whole setup was very cluttered.

The oval experimental device was the assembled superconducting antigravity equipment.

Li Ning also stood to one side, looking no different from the other professors, but in fact, he was much more nervous than anyone else. The experiment that was about to be conducted was going to test his theory.

According to Zhao Yi, "The probability of success this time is very high."

"If it fails, we’ll have to redo the mathematical proof."

Li Ning didn’t know why Zhao Yi could so confidently assert the outcome with just one experiment, but he had no choice but to trust Zhao Yi.

The core of the now-designed superconducting antigravity device was also designed by Zhao Yi; he was responsible for the design and the others for the arrangement.

The problem lay here.

Zhao Yi had designed the antigravity experimental device, yet no one else could fully understand it. They only knew that the ’oval’ design was to urgently create ’a sectional space barrier resulting from the self-choice of particle lattice.’

This was Zhao Yi’s explanation.

The others could only understand from the superficial meaning, but the oval device was not flat, it was a corrugated structure with uneven surfaces.

Some people asked Li Ning.

Li Ning really didn’t want to answer, because he didn’t have any more understanding of the design of the experimental device than anyone else.

Zhao Yi’s construction of the mathematical theory of superconducting antigravity completely exceeded his own theory. It could be understood in this way: he only inferred that superconductivity had antigravity effects, but was unable to clearly explain what those effects were, whereas Zhao Yi did the fundamental mathematical construction for the theory and then used it to deduce the experimental method.

This was another dimension altogether.

After waiting not too long, the door was finally knocked on.

Li Ning was the first to rush over to open it and, upon seeing Zhao Yi at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Academician Zhao, you’ve arrived." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Hmm."

Zhao Yi nodded slightly and looked at his watch in confusion, "I shouldn’t be late, should I?"

"No."

Li Ning responded with a wry smile, "We came too early."

The experiment was scheduled for nine o’clock in the morning. Li Ning had arrived at the laboratory just after six o’clock, and the others had arrived a bit later, around seven o’clock.

It was now eight-thirty.

Zhao Yi also arrived half an hour early, thinking half an hour would probably be enough to prepare, but upon arrival, he found that everyone had already prepared, and even the experimental device had been assembled.

He walked up to the oval device, took a close look, and then adjusted a few wires.

The others watched, not understanding at first, but soon realized that Zhao Yi was making corrections. His adjustments fixed minor issues in the device, such as several wires connected to a low-voltage power supply and an unsecured meter.

At the same time, they were extremely shocked.

How could Zhao Yi, who had not participated in the installation of the device, come in, take a look, and then go ahead and improve the device right away?

Wasn’t that too impressive?

Seeing what was happening, Li Ning suddenly felt confident. He had always thought of Zhao Yi as a ’theoretical physicist,’ but now it seemed that Zhao Yi was definitely an ’experimental physicist’ of international top caliber. In a very short time, he had identified deficiencies in the device and swiftly completed the corrections.

Zhao Yi paid no attention to the reactions of the others, continuing to inspect the entire device. After finding no major issues, he looked down at the time.

The original plan was to conduct the experiment at nine o’clock, but it was still a bit early.

"Let’s wait."

Zhao Yi said, "The plan is for nine o’clock, so we’ll do it at nine. I do take this experiment very seriously."

"Alright."

Several people nodded together.

In their hearts, they were eager, but they had no choice but to continue waiting patiently.

Zhao Yi looked at the experimental device and used Supervision Law to make a judgment. He found no obvious problems, it just looked somewhat unpleasant, but he couldn’t demand too much. After all, the professors at the School of Sciences weren’t professional experimental physicists, nor were they professional electrical engineers. The fact that they had managed to assemble the device was already commendable, and to ask for aesthetic appeal was asking too much.

After all, the device was indeed very complex, with a dizzying number of wiring interfaces.

Fortunately, the main core was assembled quite well.

The core of the superconducting antigravity device in front of them was the metal niobium ring, distributed in a corrugated pattern beneath the cold cover of the oval device.

Niobium is a widely used superconducting material.

When the temperature approaches absolute zero, some substances undergo a sudden change in their chemical properties and become superconductors with virtually no electrical resistance – the temperature at which substances begin to exhibit this strange "superconducting" property is called the critical temperature.

Obviously, the critical temperatures of different substances are not exactly the same.

Very low temperatures are not easy to achieve, creating them requires a great cost, and the closer one gets to absolute zero, the greater the cost.

Therefore, whether in industry or in experiments, the requirement for superconducting materials is, of course, the higher the critical temperature, the better.

It is now known that many elements have superconducting properties. Niobium is one of them with the highest critical temperature. Alloys made from niobium have a critical temperature of eighteen point five to twenty-one degrees absolute, making it one of the most important superconducting materials to date.
