Throne of Magical Arcana

"What went wrong? The fission reactor exploded several times in a row..." Fernando didn't pay attention to Lucien's reminder at all. As long as there are no other legendary peaks or Tier 3 tricks, he will have no time to react Out, just the trigger and passive magic effects on the body can guarantee that he will survive the fission pile explosion and not be affected by the curse.

His hair seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and it was abnormally messy, and the red magic robe on his body was also full of wrinkles. He looked like he had just experienced a catastrophe, but he didn't notice it, and focused all his attention on the possibility of the fission reactor. Regarding the existing problems, his tone was a little irritable and full of strong doubts. According to his research in the field of fission and the reverse cracking of the legendary magic of "atomic fission", there should be no problems, such as what happened during an out-of-control explosion. It is indeed a fission reaction!

"How many times?" Lucien took a deep breath like a toothache. I dare say this is not the second time the fission reactor exploded out of control, but the third, fourth, or even the fifth or sixth time. "probability" coincidentally - because it is not "small probability" at all.

It wasn't until this time that Lucien really understood why the teacher seldom took himself and other students to do magic experiments. At most, they were relatively simple ones such as black body radiation. It turned out that following him to conduct magic experiments was such a dangerous thing! Not being a legend means that there will be "no bones left" at any time.

Fernando frowned and said, "How many times is not the point, the point is why. There is no contradiction between the spell model and fission principle of 'atomic fission'."

Lucien thought for a while and said, "'Atomic Fission' is an uncontrollable area-destroying magic, and the reactor requires smooth and controllable control. Maybe the problem lies in this aspect."

"Am I so stupid to just copy the spell model of 'atomic fission' to arrange it?" Fernando said in a bad mood, "You have also seen our reactor model and detailed layout, you should know that we have added a lot to facilitate energy utilization and A controlled magic circle."

"But that doesn't mean it's really controllable and smooth, and I think that to solve this problem, you have to go a little deeper into the process of the fission reaction, figure out what the neutrons and other particles are doing, and figure out how they might work under different conditions. Different reactions caused.” Lucien has also thought about the issue of out-of-control fission reactors, and initially suspects that the current research is too simple and crude. The different effects of neutrons, let alone their different effects in different fission reactions.

Fernando never scoffed at real suggestions, but he never gave up in words: "Have I never thought about this problem? But it would take a long time to redo the neutron bombardment of different elements under different conditions." Magic experiments, well, Hathaway and I have already started."

Neutrons cannot be accelerated by electromagnetic fields, so bombardment experiments are much more complicated.

"I'm also trying to do experiments in this area." Lucien smiled, "Complete the research on small nuclear fission devices as soon as possible, so that our artificial planet can play a greater role, and the church and other enemies can't even imitate it." There is no way to catch up."

The orbital movement of the artificial planet itself and the principles of electromagnetic wave reception and forwarding are not complicated, and they belong to the category of imitation, but for fission reactors, if there is no in-depth study of the fission process, then the church and other enemies will only imitate. Explosion accidents encountered, and cannot be ruled out fundamentally - if they don't understand which magic pattern plays a role, naturally there is no way to combine or discard it when it is transformed into the corresponding magic symbol, and these many links are casually Anything wrong could lead to a serious accident.

This is the difference between "Arcane frontier" and "relative frontier". After all, the "launch" process in this world is too simple and rough.

Fernando nodded lightly: "As long as a stable fission reactor can be completed, miniaturization will happen sooner or later."

In this magical world, many technical problems that cannot be accomplished on the earth are no longer a problem. For example, the fission reactor built by Fernando and Hathaway directly uses the magic circle to convert the released energy into electrical energy, etc., without occupying any extra volume. , Of course, the resulting miniaturization cost will be very high, except that the council pays for the installation on the artificial planet, it is estimated that only archmages and legendary magicians have the ability to use it.

And the members of the Supreme Council are also divided on the promotion of miniaturized fission devices, because it may bring great safety risks, which may cause a large number of casualties and pollution that will take a long time to eradicate.

Seeing that the teacher was full of confidence, Lucien smiled: "Fission reactors and miniaturization are only the first step in our accumulated experience, and controllable nuclear fusion is our real goal. At that time, we can all call ourselves 'Sun Kings'." ' is."

"Controllable nuclear fusion..." Fernando repeated with some yearning but frowning. The difficulty of this problem is not on the same order of magnitude as that of fission reactors. He, Douglas, Hathaway and others are currently clueless, while Lucien I couldn't make any useful suggestions, "Let's explore the fission reactor first..."

Speaking of this, he habitually mocked: "Any arcanist who has in-depth research in the microscopic field, the most important experiment at present is to bombard other particles with different particles, and find out from countless experimental data that may contain mystery. In that group, there are more alchemists than arcanists, like repetitive labor."

"It's not just those arcanists who have in-depth research. Most magicians know that particle bombardment experiments in the microscopic field are the most likely to find new discoveries." Full of fear, as if there is something that destroys the world hidden in it, and I have only a half-knowledge of quantum mechanics, so I can’t make theoretical and new experimental contributions, so I can only follow this path that is absolutely infallible.”

This is the same as on the earth. Particle bombardment and collision experiments are the most basic and most likely places to discover mysteries in the microscopic field. The only difference is that the high-level magicians of the parliament can arrange the corresponding experimental devices. You must wait in line to use it, and you can verify your conjecture or derivation from the collision data.

Of course, when it comes to the stage of the Large Hadron Collider, the scene may become more and more similar. For example, the current mid-level magician can only expect a few paths to conduct similar magic experiments.

One is that he is a student or friend of a high-level magician, the other is that he works in a place such as the Atomic Research Institute, and the third is that he is rich enough to hire a high-level magician to help with the arrangement.

The fourth is to apply to the Magic Research Committee, enter the queuing sequence, and wait for the free use of the large-scale open laboratory of the Allinge Magic Tower—this was specially proposed by Lucien at the meeting of the Supreme Jury, so that middle and low-level magicians can also use it. Can do predictive research without spending money.

Fernando stared with bright red eyes: "It's not all because of the 'observer effect' you proposed that made them fear and panic."

Lucien laughed and changed the subject: "Teacher, didn't you conduct field theory research today? Mr. Brook hasn't come yet?"

"Research? Why study this! My mind is full of infinity, infinity, infinity, and I don't understand what's the point of research!" Lucien's question was just right, and Fernando exploded like a ignited alchemical explosive .

Lucien really wanted to comfort the teacher. Everyone who studies field theory has millions of infinities hidden in the room. This is something that cannot be avoided with in-depth research in the microscopic field.

For example, Mr. Dirac, who proposed the Dirac equation (that is, the relativistic quantum mechanical equation—Lucien equation), as one of the founders of quantum field theory, Lucien ranks among the top ten, or even the top five great Physicists, precisely because they hold different views on infinity, believe that the appearance of infinity itself should have its own reasons and deep meanings, and the previous classical theories may have errors, so they oppose the use of mathematical methods for reorganization. As a result, he gradually left the cutting-edge field (the cognitive world was broken and solidified?).

After roaring for a while, Fernando also calmed down: "Brook will come later, but even if infinity appears in higher approximation calculations, the field theory we have established does initially describe the interaction of charged particles, that is, The nature of electromagnetism..."

He is quite satisfied with the joint research of himself, Brooke and Lucien, except for the damn infinity.

Starting from the field theory of their research, Fernando and Brook believe that the electromagnetic force is realized by exchanging photons with charged particles, and there are many different processes. However, this photon is different from the photon in daily research and cannot be observed. It is a mathematical conclusion. The two People call it a virtual photon.

After discussing quantum field theory for a while, Fernando suddenly said: "Stannis told me that the Dark Mountains are a little restless, and those dark guys seem to have re-acquainted with us after the Rentat War, and began to measure cooperation and confrontation with us. The problem."

"Aren't they too slow?" Lucien asked with a smile.

Fernando sneered: "Those guys are a long-lived race. In their eyes, our ten years may be just a dozen days. In addition, their interest in arcane arts is not as good as that of the church. It is inevitable that this will happen. , you tell Natasha, pay attention to the situation of Rentat during this period, there may be many dark creatures appearing."

"Okay." Lucien nodded solemnly.

…………

In the dark mountain range, a young man with short silver-gray hair and golden eyes said majesticly: "Nasder, sneak into Rentat and Allinge as soon as possible, and take a good look at the changes brought about by the Magic Council. This is what we will do in the future. basis for the decision.”

"Yes, Your Excellency." The werewolf in front of him withdrew his fur and turned into a rough man with the same silver-gray hair.
