In the high-temperature laboratory, Tom was attempting to create even higher temperatures through thods such as laser and high-energy particle bombardnt.
Calculated by temperature, which is an indicator of the average kinetic energy of particles, Tom had actually created ultra-high temperatures approaching 10 trillion degrees Celsius in the particle collider, and observed many peculiar phenona under this temperature, thereby greatly improving his theory.
However, that was only at the microscopic scale, where the high-temperature region only involved so fundantal particles. The macroscopic scale is different from the microscopic scale.
Preparing ultra-high temperatures at the macroscopic scale also has great significance.
This macroscopic high temperature cannot be achieved even by using nuclear fusion reactors for heating, because the core temperature of a nuclear fusion reactor is only a few hundred million degrees Celsius, which is basically cool compared to ultra-high temperatures for scientific research.
Additional ans must be used.
The thods Tom adopted were concentrated high-energy laser irradiation and high-energy particle bombardnt.
However, these two thods can actually be considered one, because high-energy laser irradiation, in essence, can also be considered the collision of high-energy photons, still a type of generalized high-energy particle collision.
Tom specifically developed so equipnt similar to a particle collider, dedicated to accelerating particles and then concentrating them to bombard a target.
Thus, Tom achieved the goal of heating a 5-gram zinc sheet to a high temperature of one trillion degrees Celsius under magnetic confinent.
At one trillion degrees Celsius, not to ntion molecules, even atoms cease to exist; atomic nuclei, and even the protons and neutrons that make up atomic nuclei, have already broken apart.
As a result, Tom observed gluon plasma in a macroscopic state for the first ti, verified the unusual changes in the Strong Nuclear Force in a macroscopic state, and once again increased his understanding of the Strong Nuclear Force.
In addition to high temperature, there is also low temperature.
Based on the Doppler effect, Tom used laser beams to decelerate atoms, reduce their kinetic energy, and then precisely manipulate to remove high-energy atoms. With multiple approaches, the temperature was lowered to a temperature extrely close to absolute zero.
In a dium at this temperature, even the speed of light changed.
Tom saw that light moved slowly like a snail in the dium, and even a slowly walking clone could easily exceed the speed of light.
Of course, this does not an the realization of superluminal speed in the physical sense.
The speed of light in the physical sense refers to the speed of light in a vacuum. The speed of light in a vacuum is a constant and unchangeable, and this speed cannot be surpassed. However, the speed of light in other dia can change and can be easily surpassed.
At the core of those huge spherical spacecraft, the neutrino telescope was also continuously working, observing one neutrino collision event after another.
The working principle of the neutrino telescope is based on the principle that secondary particles moving in water will exceed the speed of light in water.
Because the secondary particles caused by neutrino collisions with water molecules move at superluminal speeds, they will cause a certain radiation. By observing this radiation, relevant information about neutrinos can be obtained.
Every large scientific facility consus enormous energy.
Not to ntion the energy consumption of the particle collider, gravitational wave detector, neutrino telescope, high-temperature and low-temperature laboratories, and other equipnt themselves, just processing the data produced by these nurous large scientific facilities kept more than 20,000 quantum supercomputers running at full load for a long ti.
Quantum supercomputers themselves require extrely low temperatures, lower than the temperature of the microwave background radiation. This ans that even in the cold cosmic space, they need to continuously dissipate heat.
The energy required to drive the chips is even more enormous. Roughly calculated, these more than 20,000 quantum supercomputers used to process the data from large scientific facilities consu an average of 80 billion kilowatt-hours per day, and the annual power consumption is as high as 29.2 trillion kilowatt-hours, which is even higher than the total power consumption of the entire Human Civilization during the national era!
The total power consumption of an entire primary Electroweak Civilization is now only used to maintain the operation of the supercomputers. And what is the power consumption of the supercomputers compared to Tom’s entire fleet at this mont?
In Tom’s fleet, there are more than 2 billion clones who remain awake, consuming a massive amount of food and water, and a massive amount of oxygen every day. To save materials, the material recycling equipnt operates 24/7.
The operation of the spacecraft’s own equipnt also consus huge energy. All in all, it could probably deplete all the materials and energy reserves of an ordinary Electroweak Civilization’s interstellar fleet in a short period.
Fortunately, Tom’s fleet is large enough to support this massive consumption of materials and energy.
Ti slowly passed, with over a billion consciousness connections always fully occupied, and 2 billion clones, except for rest periods, were either in busy work or in a state of physical rest and ntal contribution of brainpower.
Every mont, a large number of shuttle ships traversed between different giant spacecraft, and nurous factories, equipnt, laboratories, and large scientific facilities worked non-stop, everything just like in a resource-rich star system.
Under these circumstances, dozens of neutrino telescopes simultaneously reported a rather strange phenonon to Tom.
They once again simultaneously detected a neutrino burst event.
This neutrino burst had a relatively high energy level and was speculated to originate from so more violent astronomical phenona, such as stellar collisions or stellar explosions.
Through cross-localization by different neutrino telescopes, Tom roughly completed the localization of the radiation source of this neutrino burst.
The data showed that it was approximately 16,000 light-years away, near the edge of the Milky Way.
A violent astronomical phenonon is not strange in itself. Such things happen almost every day in the universe.
But what’s strange is... why is the interval so short?
This was not the first ti Tom had observed this type of signal.
Just half a year ago, Tom had already observed such a signal, and its type, intensity, coordinates, and other data all matched this one.
Could it be that in one place, such violent astronomical events would occur twice in a row?
This is unreasonable.
No astronomical event could cause such a thing. This violates Tom’s known theoretical system.
Facing this peculiar phenonon that could almost overturn his theoretical system, Tom showed no anger or frustration; instead, he was full of excitent.
Not only Tom, but the Bluetoth scientists were also very excited.
Because in scientific research, what scientists most look forward to is finding phenona that do not conform to their theories, preferably being able to overturn their previous theories and completely negate their past selves.
Because only in this way can new physical theories be found, and only then can one further improve one’s theoretical system!
