Explorations and Research of All Kinds

Despite the numerous scientific reports and viewpoints presented by Yu Nanfeng's team, human scientists will not devote all their energy to exploring existing theories in the near future.

There are generally two methods to find new theories. One is to let mathematicians accidentally create a formula that even they don't understand, and then let physicists discover that this formula can actually be used in this way. The other is to conduct collision experiments using Particle Collider, and then find the secrets hidden in the microscopic world of a certain system, and then summarize them to find new physical laws.

It is extremely rare for mathematicians to directly extract formulas; such occurrences have happened only a handful of times in the history of human scientific development. Therefore, Research Team dedicated to new theories naturally place their hopes on Particle Collider.

As a result, in the following period, the work of the Space Multi-Point Particle Collider, which had already been assembled, continued almost without interruption.

In the experiment, some gold and lead atoms were stripped of all their electrons in the collider and then subjected to proton separation, resulting in a proton-proton collision experiment.

Scientists have been repeatedly increasing the collision energy level in an attempt to find some strange phenomena in these collisions.

In fact, the so-called collision experiment also involves a bit of luck. After all, humans have conducted various collision experiments with colliders before, but no strange phenomena have been found.

However, not finding it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. After all, the probability of detecting exotic phenomena or new particles from Particle Collider is extremely small. Just like when humans searched for the Higgs Boson, it would take about a trillion proton-proton collisions to detect the Higgs Boson once.

So these Research Team are very patient; they also know that sometimes new scientific discoveries are purely accidental.

Of course, it's not just random collisions without any purpose. Before conducting a collision experiment, scientists have a design plan and related theoretical expectations.

For example, the Research Team currently using Particle Collider first found a possible answer through calculations, believing that in Heavy Ion Collision, protons and neutrons might merge into their components, and then Quark and Gluon would form a fluid in this process, which would expand, cool, and eventually recondense into particles.

These particles will be observed by detectors, and scientists call them Quark-Gluon Plasma.

The scientific team mainly wants to find a black hole with Supersymmetry properties in Quark-Gluon Plasma. Well, not the black hole that people usually know, because in theory, such a Supersymmetry black hole does not exist in the Four-Dimensional Space-time in which we live, but in a curved five-dimensional spacetime.

Therefore, it can be seen from this that the basic theoretical guidance for this Research Team's experiment is actually String Theory.

They want to find Supersymmetry black holes that don't exist in Four-Dimensional Space-time in the laboratory, and then find a way to use these curved five-dimensional spacetime black holes, which can be created by humans, as engine power.

This thing is still in its infancy, but the Research Team is quite confident because they have obtained the Rotating Shaft direction of the black hole in the Quark-Gluon Plasma in their calculations, although so far it is still a mathematical calculation result.

They believed they could use the jets of energy generated in the Four-Dimensional Space-time direction when these black holes, curled up in five-dimensional spacetime, devour microscopic quanta as the power source for their engines.

The power of a black hole jet is much greater than that of Nuclear Fusion, which sounds like it could be a source of energy for even greater thrust, since a five-dimensional spacetime black hole is still a black hole.

It's just that this involves String Theory, a curled-up spacetime that's higher than Four-Dimensional Space-time, and microscopic quantum mechanics as its fuel, which sounds very mysterious. But in the eyes of these professional scientists, it's actually not mysterious at all.

There are countless mysterious things, enigmatic phenomena, and even counterintuitive phenomena in the universe.

So-called exploration and research is not limited to one direction, because at present, humanity has no idea what technology is the navigation technology of Level 3 Civilization. Therefore, while this team is trying to find answers from Supersymmetry and five-dimensional spacetime black holes, another team is turning its attention to symmetry breaking.

When it comes to symmetry breaking, the first thing that usually comes to mind is Parity Nonconservation. Indeed, Parity Nonconservation describes spontaneous symmetry breaking under weak interactions.

In the weak interaction, left-handed and right-handed particles decay at different rates, violating parity symmetry. The Weak Interaction Force acts only on left-handed ions, not right-handed particles, also violating parity symmetry. Furthermore, the weak interaction violates parity conservation because the parity quantum numbers of the initial and final states of a process differ, similarly violating parity symmetry.

The Research Team chose to start from this angle because they believed that if they were to find answers through electroweak unification, they would need to gain a deeper understanding of the Weak Interaction Force.

They wanted to truly understand, to calculate clearly, the process by which the Weak Electricity breaks symmetry and transforms into the Weak Interaction Force and the Electromagnetic Force. They wanted to find the answer in this or that environment.

But what does this research have to do with propulsion technology?

Of course there are. Regardless of the type of propulsion technology, it is essentially a process of interaction of forces. Whether it is rocket launch, electric propulsion, Cold Nuclear Fusion propulsion, Heavy Nuclear Fusion propulsion, or even the imagined five-dimensional spacetime black hole facing Four-Dimensional Space-time jet, it is all action and reaction forces.

So, since they are all forces, what exactly is force? In the scientific community, there's one explanation: First, force is generated by the exchange of discrete energy packets called quanta. Second, different forces are caused by different quantum exchanges.

Take the Weak Interaction Force, for example. It is caused by different types of quantum exchanges, called W Particle. The propagators of the Weak Force are the W Boson and the Z Boson.

Similarly, the Strong Interaction Force binds protons and neutrons together within the Atomic Nucleus, caused by the exchange of Subatomic Particle called π Meson. Of course, humans have long since found fragments of W and π Meson in accelerators and verified this. Finally, humans have termed the subnuclear force that binds protons, neutrons, and even π Meson together Gluon.

These scientists, or Research Team, hope to find a more powerful energy generation method than heavy nuclei and Cold Nuclear Fusion by studying the interaction of forces, especially the weak interaction force and Electromagnetic Force, so that humans can achieve higher speeds.

Everyone is working hard, and everyone hopes that humanity can quickly master faster navigation technology.

However, scientific research cannot guarantee that the direction of research is correct. Therefore, even though many scientific teams have emerged at the forefront of science and technology and participated in research and exploration during this period, there has been little progress after several years.

However, this situation did not discourage the scientists, since as anyone who does research knows, it is normal to have no results.

The New Government was aware of this, so it did not stop these research projects because they had not yielded results. Instead, it increased its investment in resources and talent year by year.

In short, over the years since these research projects were launched, almost the entire human society has come to know that humanity has now encountered another Technology Barrier.

This Technology Barrier is different from the past. In the past, technologies such as True Nano Technology or Heavy Nuclear Fusion could be traced, at least the target 'peak' could be seen. But now, faced with new travel technologies, humanity is like being in the dark, looking around in bewilderment.
