Liu Chuanhai was very excited when he heard the affirmative answer from the boss, which shows that the company he is responsible for is not ignored by the boss!
"Good boss, I will work hard with everyone in the company to accomplish this goal!" Liu Chuanhai promised.
"Well, I believe you will do it! Do you have any other questions?" Lei Tiantang asked.
"Boss, I have always had an idea whether I should say it or not. Now that our company has developed to this level, I think the time has come to operate this thing! So I will say this idea today!
Boss, you know that it is very necessary for a material research and development company like ours to explore the field of high energy physics, especially if you need to build a spacecraft in the future, it is very necessary to have a large hadron collider!
The Large Hadron Collider accelerates the two beams of protons to an extremely high energy state of 14 TeV (14 trillion electron volts), and makes them collide. Its energy state can be compared with the state shortly after the Big Bang.
Particle physicists will use the products of proton collisions to explore physical phenomena, such as looking for the Higgs particles predicted by the Standard Model, exploring supersymmetry, extra dimensions, and other new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Some people may think that advanced theoretical research in the field of high-energy physics has nothing to do with our daily lives, and it is not worth spending billions of dollars. More than 100 years ago, Einstein discovered the mass-energy equation, that is, mass and energy can be transformed into each other.
Many people also think this equation is useless. However, the atomic bomb developed under the guidance of this theory allows people to see the terrible aspects of high-energy physics. Subsequently, nuclear energy was used to generate electricity, and people realized that the mass-energy equation really improved our lives.
The Large Hadron Collider can take human science and technology a big step forward. For example, the formation and synthesis of antimatter will become possible. Finding antimatter and its synthesis method will possibly solve our energy crisis and become the fuel of choice for space travel and interstellar travel.
Antimatter has incredible power. With only a small amount of antimatter, the energy produced by its annihilation with matter can be compared to a nuclear bomb with the equivalent of several million tons. (The annihilation mass energy conversion rate of matter and antimatter is 100%, which is dozens of times that of a nuclear bomb.)
One day in the future, not only will our company’s people travel in space on antimatter-propelled spacecraft, the electrical energy used by home appliances will also come from antimatter power plants.
If we want our company’s spacecraft to travel around the solar system, nuclear energy should be enough, but in the future, if our spacecraft wants to travel between stars, it must use energy like antimatter as fuel, otherwise light It is impossible to rely on nuclear energy to support the super high-speed flight and space jump of the spacecraft!
So now that we have a plan for this spacecraft, a lot of things need to be prepared in advance. We must know that now our planet doesn’t even know how to produce antimatter on a large scale. Means to get a little bit of antimatter!
And our company does not even have the qualifications to see antimatter materials, and this material is what our company needs in the future, so our company must have the ability to develop it by itself!
Our company now has this ability to start involving such high-end fields. First of all, our company's superconducting materials are becoming more and more advanced. From the research materials sent to us by the boss, our company's superconducting materials have completely Lead the world!
There are also the strong magnetic materials provided by the boss. Their performance far exceeds the requirements for building a large hadron collider. There are also some other advanced materials. With these advanced materials, I believe our company already has them. The foundation for the construction of the Large Hadron Collider!
The most important point is that the boss is a super rich! Our company's funds are very abundant, so we don't need to wrestle with funding issues. For example, the most advanced European Large Hadron Collider in the world is due to financial and technical issues. It was built from 1994 to 2008 and it was only completed!
A total of about US$10 billion has been invested, which is totally no problem for our company! And I believe that the Large Hadron Collider built by our company will certainly not use so much money and time!
After all, our company can produce a lot of materials by ourselves, and in terms of construction speed, the name of the infrastructure madman of our Huaxia people is not blown out!
The only thing that bothers our company now is that we don’t have the relevant technology. This is why I haven’t said this. It’s useless to talk about it! "Tian Mingli said one of his thoughts in detail.
"Lao Tian, you are going to heaven! Research equipment such as the Large Hadron Collider is a national project, OK?! Can our company do such a thing? Just like you said, there is no technology to say ass. What's the use of materials and money!" Kong Yu laughed as soon as he heard Tian Mingli's words, he was impatient to express his shock!
The people in the conference room are all elites. Everyone knows more or less about the Large Hadron Collider. Such large research equipment has not been put into construction in our country!
There have been a lot of debates on this issue in China, and various top experts have been discussing whether or not to build such a project. The reasons for opposing the construction of this project are also very strong.
Because usually the estimated funding for the construction of such a large collider is not enough~EbookFREE.me~ it is very likely that additional investment will be required. And after it is completed, a large amount of money will be invested in equipment maintenance every year.
The China Large Collider is like a black hole of funds, which will draw in a large amount of scientific research funds, so that other scientific research fields waiting for capital investment become stretched.
It should be understood that many domestic research projects are supported by financial allocations, and the funds used for scientific research are counted every year. If there are more here, it means that there are fewer other places, which makes many people dissatisfied. !
Even with such a huge investment, the China Particle Collider may not be able to make major discoveries in a short period of time. The current theoretical physics has not yet made a substantial breakthrough, and it is impossible to give a clear direction to the experiment. It costs so much money to just try it.
The research work to support this project has been carried out, and it is estimated that our country will not start construction until 2022!
Now Tian Mingli has to use the power of a company to compete with the country for construction speed. This crazy idea makes everyone feel a little unacceptable. Although what he said is indeed reasonable, the company is not bad for the construction money, but it is just like Kong As Yu Xiao said, if you don't have the technology, you can talk for nothing!
