Homo sapiens.

An atomic nucleus consisting simply of two neutrons.

"Neutron degenerate matter?" Ye Feifan asked in surprise.

At this time, Ruan Zhixiong was scratching his head when facing the unreasonable matter in front of him: "It's not right! Why can this pair of neutron nuclei exist stably?"

They wouldn't believe it if it wasn't right in front of them.

But facts speak louder than words.

Ye Feifan muttered to himself while thinking: "Neutrons are extremely unstable in nature and will decay into protons, electrons and antineutrinos."

"If you change the angle, neutrons can actually be understood as a combination of protons + electrons + antineutrinos..."

"Neutrons in nature are often combined with protons to form atomic nuclei. The combination of the two means that neutrons can exist stably, but some kind of stabilization mechanism is needed..."

The more Ye Feifei said, the more the light in his eyes became brighter.

Chapter 656 Unable to mass-produce

Ye Feifei became more and more excited. He called up the supercomputing system, input a large amount of data, and began to verify his ideas.

More than half an hour later, he looked at the holographic simulation model in front of him with a smile on his face: "So it is! So it is!"

In the holographic screen, a simulated neutron is appearing in front of everyone.

This is an antineutron composed of proton + electron + neutrino.

As long as the antineutron and positon neutron are close together, the two will combine together, and the nuclear force source of the combination is neutrino and antineutrino.

Neutrons and antineutrons are different from protons and antiprotons by their own characteristics. They do not react well with each other, but maintain a fragile stability.

As for why the antineutrons in the universe are very rare, the reason is caused by the non-conservation of parity.

Antineutrinos in the universe occupy the vast majority, while positive neutrinos are very few.

This is similar to the case of electrons and positrons.

Therefore, there are many neutrons in the universe, but very few antineutrons.

In this experiment, by accident, some positive neutrinos were created, and at the same time, a large number of electrons and protons were encountered, and several antineutrons were inadvertently synthesized, and then these antineutrinos and neutrons Combined together, a special double-neutron nucleus is formed.

Although this is something synthesized by accident, Ye Feifan and others understand that this may be one of the keys to the second-level civilization.

After all, the neutron degenerate material is the real cosmic material. This thing can not only try the extremely terrifying magnetic field, but also its strength exceeds the general element composition.

Think about the existence of neutron stars, you will know the horror of neutron degenerate materials.

Dr. Yuri was also taken aback by this unexpected joy. While dispatching more manpower to Ye Feifan, he asked the Mars star ring system to experiment again.

The energy level of the third collision experiment was exactly the same as the second one, but the monitoring system and precision instruments near the Jensen crater more than doubled.

This time the impact experiment still only persisted for 112 seconds, and the time accurately monitored during the period was only about 0.58 seconds.

However, this time, the special double-neutron nucleus appeared again, and 5 signal points also appeared.

After the impact, a large number of robots quickly entered the field, and according to the positioning of the magnetic field detector, they quickly found 3 double neutron nuclei.

With 4 dineutron nuclei and a general understanding of how to produce this dineutron matter, Ye Feifan's team began to study the physical properties of this dineutron matter.

Inside a specially protected laboratory.

Ye Feifan looked at the double neutron matter floating in mid-air in the superconducting magnetic field, which could almost rely on its own magnetic field.

His expression became more and more excited: "The magnetic field of this thing is too strong. Only about one kilogram of dineutron matter can generate a magnetic field equivalent to 50 tons of silver-based superconductors..."

Ruan Zhixiong was also very excited. He knows that the current superconductor materials of Homo sapiens can only be stacked continuously to increase the magnetic field strength, which leads to the huge mass and volume of those large ultra-strong magnetic field devices.

However, if it is replaced with a double-neutron material, the weight of the double-neutron material is only about [-]/[-] that of a silver-based superconductor for the same magnetic field.

Moreover, the dual-neutron material has an even more powerful characteristic, that is, it is extremely resistant to high temperatures. Even in the high temperature of several thousand degrees Celsius, the magnetic field characteristics of the dual-neutron material can still be maintained.

However, Ye Feifei quickly smiled wryly again: "The manufacture of this thing is too difficult. Only a few double neutrons are produced in one collision experiment of the Mars star ring system. If the production speed is used at this rate, it will take enough one kilogram. Wait until the universe returns to its origin."

Others are also very helpless.

Double neutron materials are good things, but their output is calculated in [-], obviously this does not have the value of application.

Ruan Zhixiong was not downcast, he smiled and patted Ye Feifan on the shoulder: "Fan Fei, this is just the beginning, just like the early days when human beings just knew about rare elements, it was very difficult to extract a little rare element."

"But now that our technology has improved, the difficulty of mining rare metals has plummeted. I believe that one day in the future, the company will be able to solve the problem of mass production of dual-neutron materials."

Hearing this, Ye Feifan has also adjusted his mentality. After all, double neutron materials are still in their infancy, and there is still a long time to come!

"Zhixiong is still open to you, thank you!"

"Don't be hypocritical, our work is not over yet. Although there is no way to synthesize it on a large scale, we must at least figure out the physical properties of double neutron materials."

"Well, go ahead!"

Ye Feifan's team continued to study double-neutron materials.

On Dr. Yuri's side, according to the physical characteristics of double neutrons researched by Ye Feifan's team, the experimental plan was adjusted again.

After bombing the Mars star ring system for more than 2000 times, the output of double neutrons was increased from a few each time before to about 3000-[-] each time.

Although the output has increased by nearly a thousand times, but this thing is not enough to be used as an experimental sample, let alone practical application.

If the one-time output is very large, the omnic civilization will not gain nothing in the critical point collision experiment.

It is also because of the instantaneous communication of the magnetic monopolar crystal and the precision of the magnetic field detector that Homo sapiens can detect the existence of the double neutron material under the circumstances of accidents.

In scientific research, sometimes luck really matters.

After more than half a year of research and experimentation.

Many physical properties of double-neutron materials have also been figured out by Ye Feifan's team.

This thing is actually in a semi-stable state, and its half-life is about 92 days. Once it decays, the double neutron will become a hydrogen element composed of a neutron and a proton, and release a positive neutrino at the same time.

It can release a super strong magnetic field. It is not charged, has no outer electrons, and is simply a quasi-nucleus. Therefore, the density of this thing is extremely high. It cannot be stored in ordinary containers, and can only be stored with a magnetic field restraint device.

Double neutrons can be combined with double neutrons through protons to form a super-strong supernuclear structure. The density of this thing is extremely high, and its hardness, strength, and heat resistance surpass all currently known materials.

Unless high-speed high-energy neutrons and high-speed high-energy protons are used to hit the double-neutron material, other means cannot destroy the structure of the double-neutron material.

Even the high-energy neutrons produced during nuclear fusion have no way of penetrating or disintegrating a double-neutron material.

If it weren't for the low production capacity of dual-neutron materials, Homo sapiens plans to use this thing to improve the controllable nuclear fusion power generation system.

Chapter 657 Change and Unchanging

Galaxy 11, February 2nd.

Li Qingye controls the synchronous robot in the synchronous robot life support cabin.

And his synchronous robot is in Callisto at this time, which is in the second Pangu world.

After several years of development, and the Homo sapiens company has acquired many technologies of the omnic civilization, the facilities of the entire Second Pangu Realm have become more complete and comprehensive.

Inside the Second Pangu Realm.

All kinds of strange mutant creatures are here to stage the cruel competition of natural selection.

Super-large fungi that have evolved lignin, their fungal caps have reached a radius of more than ten meters, and after being connected together, they have formed a fungal forest that hides the sky and the sun;

Utilizing the existence of energy storage cells and the low gravity of Callisto, super-sized crustaceans were developed. Their combat effectiveness was extremely ferocious, and they became the overlord of the Pangu world;

Using the high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance genes brought by the Venus environment, some original Venus organisms have developed a unique underground ecosystem;

And these creatures intersect with each other, and gradually form a new dynamic ecological balance in a series of competition and fighting.

Li Qingye and a group of researchers, in the control center of the Pangu Realm, are always paying attention to the ever-changing Pangu Realm ecosystem.

Assistant Wu Gaocai came over with a report: "Chairman, the balloon tree in Hot Spring Canyon has a new evolution. This is the investigation report just completed."

After taking the biological tablet, he flipped through the report.

The balloon tree is a plant that produces gliomas on the surface of the branches. During the growth of the balloon tree, these gliomas will expand a little bit and store hydrogen inside.

The hydrogen stored in these gliomas can be used to deal with animals trying to harm the balloon tree. As long as the balloon tree senses that it is threatened, they will release the hydrogen in the glioma and directly spray out the flames.

This is also the basis for the balloon tree to occupy 13% of the land area of ​​the Pangu Realm.

After several years of environmental pressure and competition from other organisms, the Balloon Tree has evolved a brand new ability - running with buckets.

Balloon trees use gliomas to form air sacs that float in the air and migrate to new areas.

Li Qingye looked carefully at the gene sequence changes in the report, as well as the balloon tree cell structure and the appearance of new organs.

Why did he pay so much attention to the biological evolution of the Pangu world.

The fundamental reason is for human evolution.

Although Homo sapiens has initially explored a route for the evolution of human beings, there are still too many uncertainties in this route.

After all, it is very difficult to double the number of chromosomes in the human gene pool to accommodate new gene sequences.

And there is no reference yet. The omnic civilization is a technical route of robots, silicon-based life, and information life, which is completely different from carbon-based human beings.

The genetic technology of the six-claw civilization is worse than Homo sapiens.

Human beings can only rely on themselves at this stage.

Even if Li Qingye uses the ability of the thinking world, there is no way to simulate biological evolution in the thinking world.

This is because the thinking world has great limitations, and it is not a big problem to deal with information life forms like the omnics.

Now the "Morgan Omnic Clan" is still in Li Qingye's thinking world, trying to break through the limitations.

For carbon-based organisms, even if the thinking world can be simulated, it is not very useful, because these simulated carbon-based organisms are actually Li Qingye's "thinking embodiment" in a sense.

In this way, there will be no "variables" in the entire thinking world. Without variables, there will be no evolution and development.

The omnics are information life, and they can be resurrected and inherited through information transmission. In this case, the omnics are a kind of variable.

Li Qingye specifically imprisoned the Morgan omnics in the thinking world in order to use the variable of the other party to promote changes in the thinking world.

This change is different from Li Qingye's own "thinking", it is a change independent of Li Qingye's thinking.

If there is no such change, then the thinking world is actually equivalent to a super biological quantum computer, and all variables can only come from Li Qingye's newly acquired knowledge and cognition.

Why does Li Qingye long for the existence of variables.

The reason lies in the needs of evolution.

The existence and development of life are actually rooted in two foundations, namely "universe physical rules" and "chaotic particle motion", which are invariance and change.

The physical rules of the universe are the foundation of the universe, and this is the part that will not change.

The chaotic particle movement is also a part of the rules of the universe, and its own movement is full of randomness, uncertainty, and chaos, which is change.

When the two are in the same system, it means the birth of life has its inevitability.

The life on the earth comes from the hot spring mouth of the black chimney on the seabed, where a large number of subtype molecules of amino acids can be produced, and then through continuous disordered combination and collision in the long years.

Until a certain day, the first amino acid molecules on the earth were formed, and then they continued to change, superimpose, mutate, and recombine, and finally formed microorganisms.

There are only three origins of living things in the universe.

The first type: natural origin.

The second type: the second transmission of natural origin.

The third layer: civilizations of natural origin, artificial creatures created.

Human civilization obviously belongs to the natural origin, and the omnic civilization is the third origin, which belongs to the artificial biological type.

The creatures in the Pangu world belong to the secondary propagation and artificial creatures, which are equivalent to a mixture.

Li Qingye pays so much attention to the creatures in the Pangu Realm, on the one hand, to study various issues that need to be paid attention to during the evolution process, so as to prevent future human beings from stepping on the thunder in the evolution process.

On the other hand, it is to collect cosmic gene runes.

At present, the number of cosmic gene runes that Homo sapiens has researched is only 852, and there are 759 more to be determined.

This number is too small, and it is not enough to support new humans to become universe-level new humans.

He put down his tablet and asked his assistant, "Gao Cai, what stage is the progress of the Civilization Tinder project?"

Wu Gaocai recalled it for a while: "...the No. 28 fire seed of the civilized fire test version, the preliminary test work has been completed, and most of the functions envisioned have been realized at present, but the delivery device is still being debated."

"Is that so?" Li Qingye frowned, and then ordered: "You can help me arrange a time, I will go to Saturn's Civilization Fire Research Base for inspection soon."

"No problem, I'll arrange it right away." Wu Gaocai nodded, and hurried to arrange the inspection itinerary.
