Everyone present expressed confusion about Lu Yongchang's request.

"Yongchang?"

As the second-in-commander of the Academy of Sciences, Fang Xu, who was standing by, took the lead in asking: "Why should we release these hard-won antimatter?"

"The observation experiment has not been completed yet. If it is completely released, our experimental progress will be stagnant for a long time."

Fang Xu's words aroused the approval of many people.

As for Lu Yongchang, he smiled and shook his head: "The data collected in the past few days is enough for us to study it."

"When we finish processing the data on our hands, a new batch of antihydrogen molecules should be completed."

As he said that, Lu Yongchang's expression became a little serious: "On the one hand, the annihilation of positive and anti-matter at the macro level is a field we have never been involved in."

"I want to use it to peek into the scenes of the beginning of the Big Bang."

"What exactly is that our universe is ultimately made up of matter."

When everyone in the laboratory was moved when they heard this.

For scientists, exploring the mysteries of the universe is like a deadly poison, attracting their attention all the time.

"on the other hand."

Speaking of this, Lu Yongchang paused for a moment and said again: "Although we are currently very inefficient in manufacturing anti-hydrogen, we still need to lay some foundation for the application of antimatter."

"Antima engines, or weapons and equipment created with the help of antimatter, require the macroscopic annihilation data as the basis."

Hearing these two major reasons, Fang Xu decisively changed his position and nodded in agreement.

As for other scientific researchers?

When I heard the first reason, I decided to support Lu Yongchang's approach.

After all, who can resist the attraction of the proposition of snooping into the origin of the universe?

...

certainly.

The so-called release of antimatter is definitely not simply closing the [particle trap] and then throwing this precious microgram of antihydrogen molecule directly into the outside world.

If this is true,

Without the help of professional equipment, humans may only be able to see an extremely brilliant and extremely expensive large explosion.

This is a bit too extravagant.

Therefore, in order to obtain as much data as possible, under the order of Lu Yongchang, more than ten [engineering ships] began to build a special space laboratory in the empty space far away from the Dawn Star and Guangweiyi.

By then, this microgram antihydrogen molecule will contact a microgram hydrogen molecule in this space laboratory, and will open the door to a new scientific research field that humans have never been exposed to.

...

Time passes by rapidly.

One month later.

The space laboratory manufacturing was completed.

If Lu Yongchang said, before they could complete the analysis of all the observation data, the large particle acceleration device of the satellite re-made a microgram of anti-hydrogen molecule.

However, this time, Lu Yongchang did not order the operation of the particle acceleration device to stop.

If you want to study antimatter in depth, a mere microgram is definitely not enough.

In addition to anti-hydrogen, he even needs to create anti-helium!

...

Earth Calendar October 24, 2450.

In the first laboratory of Dawn Star.

The expressions of every scientific researcher were nervous and excited.

Zero's electronic synthesizing sound kept ringing in the laboratory, reporting on the progress of preparations in the space laboratory.

“…”

"Professor, all preparations have been completed."

As the last electronic synthesizing sound rang, the original calm in the laboratory returned to its original state.

Lu Yongchang stared at the monitoring data in the holographic projection.

Data shows that the micrograms of precious antihydrogen molecule are firmly constrained by the magnetic cage in the center of the high-purity vacuum reaction chamber.

Unlike the simple [particle trap] used to bind antihydrogen molecules, the magnetic cage form in the reaction chamber is more complex.

Simply put, it is composed of two layers of magnetic cages.

The inner magnetic cage is mainly used to bind antihydrogen molecules.

The outer magnetic cage is used to control the movement of hydrogen molecules.

As for why we do this, it is naturally to better control the contact between the two.

Lu Yongchang checked all the data again, and after confirming that it was correct, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"Inject equal amount of hydrogen!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a slender probe pierced into the surface of the magnetic cage, that is, the interlayer between the outer magnetic cage and the inner magnetic cage, and accurately sprayed out a microgram of hydrogen.

"Start the particle cooling device."

Almost at the same time, the second order was issued.

In order to better control these hydrogen molecules and antihydrogen molecules, experiments need to reduce their operating speed as much as possible.

The high-power laser generator is activated.

Under the irradiation of a beam of high-frequency lasers, the molecular movement speed inside the magnetic cage quickly decreased, and the temperature in the vacuum cavity quickly reached near absolute zero.

Looking at the data in the holographic projection, Lu Yongchang's expression became more and more serious.

Next is the most critical step.

"Close the inner magnetic cage."

"Change the operating rules of the outer magnetic cage, and at the same time reduce the space of the magnetic cage to control the contact between the two!"

The words fell.

The inner magnetic cage used to bind antihydrogen molecules disappeared instantly.

The operating rules of the outer magnetic cage also changed rapidly, and remained consistent with the operating rules of the original inner magnetic cage - the magnetic moments of hydrogen atoms and anti-hydrogen atoms are the same.

At the same time, under the control of zero, the outer magnetic cage began to shrink inward continuously, "forcing" hydrogen molecules and anti-hydrogen molecules to get closer!

final.

The two successfully contacted!

Just the moment the two came into contact, the annihilation reaction occurred!

An explosion appeared!

Although the total amount of positive and negative matter is only two micrograms, they still produce extremely huge energy according to the mass-energy formula!

The two beams with the same frequency and opposite directions exploded instantly from the central area of ​​the reaction chamber, hitting the inner wall of the reaction chamber hard!

This is the gamma ray produced by the annihilation of positive and negative matter!

At the same time, countless observation data poured into the body of the zero-light quantum computer!

The duration of the annihilation reaction is very short.

The gamma rays slowly dissipate, and the two micrograms of positive and negative matter in the reaction chamber also completely disappeared.

...

This is the first time that humans have obtained data on the annihilation of a large number of positive and anti-matter at the macro level.

The first thing to be verified is whether the energy generated by the annihilation of positive and negative matter meets the mass-energy formula.

If the energy released after both are annihilated is less than the theoretical value given by the mass-energy formula, it means that the annihilation of positive and anti-matter at the macroscopic level is not complete.

Simply put, a microgram of antimatter cannot completely annihilate a microgram of positive matter.

This explains why the universe is ultimately composed of matter, not antimatter.
