Chapter 680: Preparation for the future

For the space shuttle, Lu Zhou unexpectedly couldn't help much.
Although at his current engineering level, there is probably no problem with self-learning in related fields, but after all, a person's energy is limited, and it is the most suitable choice to devote limited energy to the career with the highest rate of return.
In recent days, Lu Zhou has basically improved the acoustic fusion device in order to increase the volume energy density of the reactor as much as possible, and at the same time let the exhausted heat be concentrated on the ionization of the Hall thrusters in addition to generating electricity. Indoors, so that excess heat can be discharged from the spacecraft through high-temperature plasma to alleviate the problem of difficult heat dissipation in the space environment.
Fortunately, because of the existence of Xiao Ai, his work difficulty has been greatly reduced.
As long as he has a laptop, even in the office, he can remotely operate the reactor with the help of Xiao Ai through an industrial robot more than ten kilometers away, and verify some interesting ideas through experiments.
At present, Luzhou has successfully increased the power of the acoustic fusion device to around 200MW. As for the cost, it only increases the core volume by 20% and the weight by 10%. On the whole, both volume energy density and mass energy density have improved a lot.
Although there is still a certain distance from the lower limit of 500MW, Lu Zhou believes that he is not far away from success.
In addition to improved fusion batteries, there are tender documents.
The bidding conference at the end of the year will be held in less than a month. Many aerospace companies participating in the bidding conference this time are not only the two major domestic aerospace companies in aerospace and aviation, but also onespace, blue arrow, and other outstanding private aerospace companies , Even the BAT Big Three came to respond to the national call ...
After all, investing in aerospace can enjoy tax concessions in other businesses. For these big taxpayers, it is simply the state to subsidize them to develop aerospace business. Opportunities should not be ignored, not to mention they also have communications launch requirements.
Time passed day by day, and it quickly reached the end of September.
And in the last week of September, Brother Luo finally returned from Europe.
Watching Feng Chen's brother walk into the office, Lu Zhou joked.
"Have you found any inspiration?"
Luo Wenxuan said with a dry cough.
"Inspiration ... can't wait, fate comes naturally."
"Then don't wait any longer, I have a task here for you."
As soon as there was a new project, Luo Wenxuan immediately came to the spirit.
"What task?"
Lu Zhou did not immediately tell him what he was going to let him do, but continued to ask.
"How long do you stay at CERN."
Luo Wenxuan: "It takes about three years to calculate."
"Three years?" Lu Zhou nodded. "Do you know much about hadron colliders?"
I don't know why Lu Zhou asked this, but Luo Wenxuan still answered truthfully: "I know a little bit. I have a good relationship with Professor Greer. He often takes me to the tunnels underneath, as well as the inspection and inspection of CMS detectors Work, I've seen it next. "
"Is Greer?" Lu Zhou's face appeared with a missed smile. "It's a funny guy."
"Do you also know?" Luo Wenxuan took a surprised look at Lu Zhou, then patted his head and said, "Oh, yes, I almost forgot, you also went to CERN for an internship."
"Yes, but I don't know much about CERN, especially the LCHb Large Hadron Collider." Having said that, Lu Zhou paused for a moment, and finally got into the subject, "I plan to build a similar thing for Study theoretical physics. "
"Build a similar one?" Luo Wenxuan's eyes widened slightly and he looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief. "Do you plan to build a collider? Do you know how much it costs?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "It's probably tens of billions, and it's still dollars? In fact, maybe not that much, and ... I'm not planning to build it on the ground, but space."
Shocked by this crazy idea, Luo Wenxuan opened his mouth, and it took a while to speak.
"... I feel like I need more money."
Lu Zhou: "You don't need to worry about money. That's what I worry about. And before it's time to spend money, I need you to participate in design work."
Luo Wenxuan said a little embarrassed, "... but I am not in engineering physics."
"I know, but you are an expert in theoretical physics and have at least three years of working experience in CERN," looking at Brother Luo, Lu Zhou continued, "I will leave the engineering to someone to do it. You are responsible Provide theoretical support to the design unit. Of course, if you are not interested, I will ask others. "
"How could you not be interested ... I'm just afraid of pitting you."
"It's okay, I'm not afraid of what you are afraid of," Lu Zhou patted Brother Luo's shoulder and said with a smile, "I'm optimistic about you."
Constructing a large hadron collider in outer space for research in the field of theoretical physics in a low-gravity, magnetic field-free environment. Lu Zhou has always had this idea, but he is struggling to achieve it without conditions.
Now that controllable fusion technology has broken through, advanced electric propulsion systems will kick off the new era of spaceflight. This once unrealistic idea may not be possible now.
Regardless of how difficult it seems now, design work is ready to begin.
Raising his hand and scratching his head, Luo Wenxuan sighed and said.
"Okay, if there's anything I need to help, just tell me."
Lu Zhou nodded.
"Well, in two days, I will send you specific things that you need to do, and you will go back first if everything is fine."
Luo Wenxuan said with a smile.
"Hurry me back? Don't ask me for a cup of coffee before leaving."
Lu Zhou looked up and stood with his arms in front of the coffee machine, waiting for the water to boil, and Jie opened his mouth.
"Kong Jie, please help me make two cups of coffee, a cup of instant coffee, a cup of pure black, unsweetened."
"Okay." Gently nodded to Lu Zhou, and Kong Jie took out an instant coffee and a pot of coarsely ground coffee beans from the drawer. Come over here.
"Your coffee, please slow down."
"Thank you."
Kong Jie pouted and smiled, and her index finger gently swept the long hair of the lower corner of her horns, and the action of raising her hands was full of mature women's intelligence and elegance as before.
"You're welcome."
After bringing coffee for the two, Kong Jie returned to the coffee machine, soaked himself in a cup, and walked back to the desk near the window to sit down and start working today.
Reaching for the coffee cup, Lu Zhou drew his lips close to his lips.
Not bad.
The scent and temperature are just right, which is his familiar taste.
The cup was lowered, and Lu Zhou glanced at the other cup that wasn't moving in the tray. He looked up at Luo Wenxuan, who was motionless there, and said something.
"Don't you let me buy you a drink? You won't drink it again."
"I……"
Luo Wenxuan opened his mouth, as if dumb, and did not speak for a long time.
I saw him look back nervously, and then looked at Lu Zhou, with an expression of stop expression.
Lu Zhou sighed and put down the glass in his hand, looking uneasy with his expression of "obviously having something to say and not knowing how to speak".
"Let's go, there's nothing more."
Luo Wenxuan: "Uh, I suddenly wanted to ask you some questions ..."
Lu Zhou looked at him dullly.
"Say."
"She ... is your assistant?"
Lu Zhou froze slightly, looked along Brother Luo's eyes, and saw Kong Jie, who was sitting at the desk by the window, sorting out the documents in his hand.
"... well, what's wrong?"
Seeing Lu Zhou nodded, Luo Wenxuan continued to speak.
"Are there any boyfriends?"
At the moment of Brother Shang Luo's fiery eyes, Lu Zhou almost did not take a sip of coffee, slammed down the coffee cup in his hand, stared at him severely, and lowered his voice.
"I warn you! I don't care if you harm others ~ EbookFREE.me ~ If you dare to attack my students or people in my office—"
"Am I that kind of person! I ..." Luo Wenxuan looked at Lu Jie in a panic direction, then turned to look at Lu Zhou, with a rare expression of embarrassment, and then moved away from the window, ... I'm serious this time. "
Lu Zhou's face was speechless.
By the same token, his ears were almost starting to cocoon.
"Which time are you not serious?"
"Every time ... but this time is different, and it feels different every time. Lu, do you know? Love is so sudden, just like the electrons scattered outside the atomic nucleus, you never know what it is next Where the second will appear, but I know it is now. "
No more ...
Vomit vomit ...
With his right hand resting on the table, Lu Zhou made a retching gesture.
Luo Wenxuan pretended not to see, his eyes kept staring at the scenery outside the window.
"Look into my eyes and repeat the previous sentence."
"No, I only look at beauties."
"I believe you a ghost!"
