Super Dimension Technology Era

Chapter 86 Verification of Gravitational Waves

CERN was embarrassed and shameless at the same time and sent an exchange team over.

As for Xi'an.

Wen Ning from the Microgravity Laboratory finally transported the No. 6 detector to the Dayi Research Base on October 2.

This was Wen Ning's first visit to Dayi's scientific research base. It looked like a scientific research town, and many ancillary facilities were being improved.

For example, there are dormitories for scientific researchers, material warehouses, living facilities, etc., and there is also space reserved for upgrading and transformation.

Wang Yifang and Huang Mingzhe came to greet us personally. Wang Yifang smiled and greeted Wen Ning: "Director Wen, thank you very much for your strong support."

"We are all brothers, so we don't need to see each other outside." Wen Ning quickly replied.

Everyone was discussing about the gravitational wave detector, and Wen Ning also visited the inside of Dayi's scientific research base along the way.

Especially when he came to the side of the tailfield accelerator, he observed this majestic machine very intuitively. Judging from the scale of the tailfield accelerator, it is really unimaginable that this machine can accelerate particles to close to the speed of light, and the energy level is as high as 500TeV.

With the cooperation of scientific researchers from the Microgravity Laboratory, the small laser interference detector was carefully transported in.

The laser interference detector will be installed on one side of the collision chamber. Since gravitational waves can penetrate most materials, there is no need for the laser interference detector to be installed in the collision chamber.

The installation work was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Huang Mingzhe also communicated with Wen Ning about gravitational waves.

"I have read Mr. Huang's paper, and I have some questions about how gravitational waves are not affected by space-time distortion." Wen Ning said as he took out his notebook and wrote down some calculation data from the general theory of relativity.

Huang Mingzhe looked at the data and then replied with a smile: "In the general theory of relativity, gravity is affected by the distortion of space and time, but if this theory is established, then the distortion of space and time in the quantum field will not be logically self-consistent..."

He explained the shortcomings of Einstein's general theory of relativity and also pointed out the flaws of Bohr's quantum mechanics.

A theory can never be said to be completely accurate until it is verified, even the theories proposed by Einstein, Bohr, and Planck.

If we blindly believe in authority, humans will be trapped and dead in the Blue Star forever.

Wen Ning discussed with him for a long time, and Academician Yang also joined in. The three of them had an in-depth discussion on general relativity, quantum mechanics, string theory, and the Yang-Meters equation (non-Abelian gauge fields).

However, Wen Ning obviously couldn't keep up with Huang Mingzhe and Academician Yang. Fortunately, the two pulled back to the gravitational wave category in time, otherwise Wen Ning could only listen to the heavenly book, and through the exchange, Wen Ning also learned about Huang Mingzhe's ambition.

Huang Mingzhe's intention is to complete a grand unified theory of mechanics in the true sense based on general relativity, quantum mechanics, and the Yang-Mei equation.

Although I don't know if Huang Mingzhe can do it, the other party's knowledge of gravity is really so strong that even Wen Ning feels inferior to him.

"In other words, if gravitational waves are tested this time..." Wen Ning did not expect that Huang Mingzhe would actually produce gravitational waves, or gravitons, through the collider.

Huang Mingzhe nodded: "If it is proven that the signal is a gravitational wave, then the standard model of gravitons is correct."

Gulu! Only then did Wen Ning understand why he wanted to borrow their laser interference detector. If gravitational waves were really detected, the result would be enough to shock the world.

Three days later, the laser interference detector was finally adjusted, which meant the experiment could begin.

Wen Ning and a dozen researchers from the Microgravity Laboratory were operating the laser interference detector.

Zhang Tingyu continued to command the tailfield accelerator and prepared for the collision experiment.

"Director Wen, is it okay?"

"That's it."

Zhang Tingyu picked up the walkie-talkie: "Each department is in its place."

"receive."

The energy level of the laser was raised to the corresponding level. The two ultra-short pulse lasers were amplified through layers of step mirrors. Finally, in the collision chamber, the two lasers with an energy level of 93.4TeV died together.

The surging plasma, subparticles bound by the strong magnetic field, and some photons and other particles that cannot be bound are sprayed everywhere.

All detection instruments invariably produced a large amount of detection data, but what everyone was most concerned about at this moment was the laser interference detector.

In the tense atmosphere, the laser interference detector showed no response at this time.

Apparently the laser interference detector did not capture the gravitational wave signal, and many people expressed disappointment.

Zhang Tingyu turned his head and looked at Huang Mingzhe, his expression asking if he wanted to continue.

Regarding the fact that no gravitational wave signal was detected, he touched his chin and thought about it. Suddenly he remembered that even the small laser interference detector in the microgravity laboratory was not as sensitive as the large laser interference detector, so it was very likely to miss the gravitational force. Wave.

Huang Mingzhe said: "Do it five more times. If it is not detected, we will discuss it again."

"According to Mr. Huang's wishes." Wang Yifang also knew that it was not yet time to make a final decision.

Something that can yield results in just one experiment is like the probability of winning five million in a lottery ticket—just think about it.

Zhang Tingyu continued to direct the researchers to take action, and the tailfield accelerator worked manically again, as if two elephants were running wildly on the tightrope.

Other instruments were humming, but the laser interference detector was indifferent.

The second experiment failed.

Ten minutes later, the third experiment began.

There was still a pool of stagnant water on the instrument of the laser interference detector. Wen Ning's palms couldn't help but sweat. Many people shook their heads in disappointment.

Huang Mingzhe was still calmly waiting for the fourth experiment to begin.

"Mingzhe, experimental failure is just a common occurrence for us." Wang Yifang comforted.

He shook his head and smiled: "I believe in myself."

The laboratory was quiet and the atmosphere was very dull. The ten minutes of waiting seemed as long as a year.

Finally, when the fourth experiment arrived, Zhang Tingyu also became nervous. Violent particle collisions were surging in the collision chamber.

Amidst the dense buzzing of detectors.

Wow... the researcher looking at the laser interference detector instrument shouted excitedly: "Detection...detection...signal detected!"

Bang, bang, bang... Wen Ning and others applauded in unison, and everyone was excited, cheering, and hugging.

The instrument computer of the laser interference detector now displayed two gravitational wave signals, indicating that two gravitons were captured.

Academician Yang patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have opened a brand new door of truth."

"I believe in myself." Huang Mingzhe replied firmly.

With the fourth experiment successfully capturing two graviton signals, in order to ensure the repeatability of the experiment, the Dayi tail field accelerator conducted 40 experiments and conducted collision experiments all day long.

The eleventh experiment captured one graviton signal; the thirteenth experiment captured two graviton signals; the thirtieth experiment captured one graviton signal; the thirty-fifth experiment captured to 1 graviton signal.

Including the two graviton signals captured in the fourth experiment, they captured a total of 7 graviton signals.

Calculating from a probability perspective, on average only one of eight collision experiments can capture a graviton signal.

If the fourth experiment does not capture the graviton signal, the time to prove graviton must be postponed.

Thanks to the book friends "Jin Lonely Life" and "I am the King of Earth, Water, Wind and Fire" for their rewards. (ω`)
