Into Unscientific Chapter 652

"I come!"

I have to say that the bald man has a really loud voice.

The moment he opened his mouth, he became the most handsome guy in the room, and everyone's eyes were fixed on this shiny bald head almost at the same time.

Some experts who were not paying attention were even frightened, and it took several seconds before they came back to their senses.

However, these shocked experts did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, they smiled and shook their heads almost at the same time.

The smile is not bitter, but somewhat helpless.

It is clear.

This is not the first time that this bald man has done this kind of thing, probably because of his innate personality.

Zhu Guangya seemed to be used to this man's behavior. Hearing this, he just nodded slightly and asked him:

“Comrade Wu Ke, do you want to lead a team to solve the problem of honeycomb cardboard partitions for atomic bombs?”

“You have to know that even though the honeycomb cardboard partition has the word cardboard, it is not an easy thing to tinker with and involves a very complex structural design.”

 Honeycomb cardboard spacers.

  This is a very common paper structure in 2023.

Generally, it is slightly larger, such as a cardboard box for a refrigerator. You can just find an opening and tear it apart, and the internal structure will be a standard honeycomb cardboard.

Although the honeycomb cardboard partition used in the atomic bomb has the same name, its purpose and structure are obviously not as simple as those of later generations.

The honeycomb cardboard spacers of the atomic bomb are mainly to provide space for the critical collapse of the uranium fuel, so the requirements for this paper core are very special:

Its structure must be easy to break and at the same time have excellent buffering and vibration isolation functions.

 That means it won't break no matter how you shake it, but it will make a hole when you poke it with your finger.

 So this is a very technical job, and it will be properly regarded as Party A's requirement for future generations.

  After all, its material is just ordinary cardboard. At most, you can add some other ingredients that can play a auxiliary function but will not have a decisive impact.

 The key to determining whether it can comply with regulations mainly lies in the ability of the developer.

 Just like a famous dish called sweet and sour carp in later generations.

The raw materials of this dish are all lively carp, but some chefs make it into a delicacy that can be called a work of art, and some chefs make it into a sweet and sour submarine.

Looking back to reality

Facing Zhu Guangya's question, the bald man named Wu Ke immediately raised his chest and looked extremely confident:

“Director Zhu, don't worry, I am confident that I can complete the task!”

 Xu Yun, who was in the audience, quietly turned sideways when he saw this, and asked in a low voice to Lao Guo beside him:

“Guo Gong, I don't know what this comrade's real name is”

 “Oh, you said him.”

Hearing this, Lao Guo glanced at Wu Ke's bald head and said:

“This is Comrade Wu Xuelin from the No. 1 Branch. He is also one of the first members of the academic department in China. He is now the deputy director of the Changchun Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics.”

“In May this year, the base encountered some problems in finishing, so the organization transferred him from the Northeast to the base.”

“He usually has a somewhat rough personality, but he is still very capable in metallurgy, instruments and structures. His team is now also the main force in metallurgy of the No. 1 branch.”

 Wu Xuelin?

 After listening to Lao Guo's introduction, Xu Yun nodded thoughtfully.

 It turns out to be this person

Wu Xuelin, an expert from the capital, is an industrial man who does not have many legendary stories but has devoted his life to the country.

 Earlier, like Qian Bingqiong and Yang Chengzong, he was recommended by Yan Jici to study abroad.

Wu Xuelin's majors are mainly mechanical engineering and metal smelting. He is the first generation of light chaser at Changchun Institute of Optics and Mechanics.

Wu Xuelin is not well-known, but he has made great contributions to China's steel smelting. He is a scholar with both R&D and leadership skills.

At the same time, because he has been in a noisy factory all year round, Wu Xuelin unknowingly spoke with a loud voice.

Another thing that made Xu Yun feel a little subtle was that

 Huang Danian, the chief expert on gravity gradiometers in China who died of illness at his workplace in later generations, was the disciple of Wu Xuelin who spent time in university:

At that time, Wu Xuelin was only two years away from being transferred to the chief engineer of Jinling Astronomical Instrument Factory. In addition to working at Changguang Institute, he also served as a professor at Changchun Institute of Geology, which was later Changchun University of Science and Technology.

In 1977, Huang Danian happened to be admitted to Wu Xuelin's sect. In this way, two generations of Chinese precision instrument leaders magically became masters and apprentices.

Of course.

Other than the above, what Xu Yun is most curious about is

 Why is Wu Xuelin bald?

 In his impression, although Wu Xuelin's hair is somewhat sparse, it is at most alopecia areata or Mediterranean condition, and he still has some hair.

But now Wu Xuelin is a complete braised egg, and his forehead is cleaner than his draft box when he wrote novels in later generations.

 Perhaps he guessed what Xu Yun was thinking.

Lao Guo on the side suddenly smiled mysteriously and explained:

“Xiao Xu, do you still remember the air defense warning a few months ago?”

"Air defense alert?"

Xu Yun was stunned for a few seconds, but soon realized what Lao Guo was referring to:

“Oh, you mean the alarm from U2?”

Lao Guo nodded and quickly glanced at Wu Xuelin's forehead:

“That's right, Comrade Xuelin was originally letting Master Liu from the main factory shave his head in the open space, but the alarm sounded too suddenly. Master Liu was frightened and used too much force.”

“So Comrade Xue Lin was forced to shave his head - but soon he found that the reason for shaving his hair seemed to be better than losing his hair, so he just kept his head bald.”

“Didn't a new group of experts come to the base before? Some of them really believed this rhetoric, so there are a few comrades in the base who are not so prolific and are also thinking about plagiarizing it.”

Xu Yun:

 This is what co-authorship is about.

The air defense alarm that Lao Guo mentioned was the reconnaissance when the U2 reconnaissance plane flew over the base. That incident was called the starting point of Xu Yun's integration into the base.

At that time, Xu Yun was still talking about the chaos system with Qian Bingqiong and Ye Duzheng, and was startled by the sound of the alarm.

In this case, it seems reasonable that a certain barber was so frightened that he pushed his head over his head.

Think of this.

Xu Yun temporarily put away his curiosity and glanced at Wu Xuelin again.

Although Wu Xuelin's appearance was an accident, it reminded him of one thing:

˜About the layout of precision instruments such as the gravity gradiometer, I seem to have forgotten to mention it to the writer.

But fortunately, Hawking's invitation letter has not been activated yet. By 2009, I can have a chat with the writer.

There are actually not a few experts like Huang Danian who have accidents due to overwork. They are in situations where the trajectory can be completely changed.

 At the same time that Xu Yun's thoughts were diverging.

Zhu Guangya in front of the stage is also continuing his task assignment.

 Mentioned earlier.

 Zhu Guangya has six main projects to be assigned today. Now that the beryllium/polonium neutron source and honeycomb cardboard spacers have been completed, there are only four left that have not been assigned:

 U235 fuel layer ball fragments, polonium protective layer, plane wave generator and neutron reflector.

 Among them, the U235 fuel layer ball fragment is much simpler. After all, its core is high-abundance enriched uranium.

Now that Yang Chengzong, or rather the 504 Factory, has completed the refining of enriched uranium, the difficulty of this link has suddenly dropped.

The main difficulty now lies in the need to produce 32 hexagonal metal blocks of the same size. The parameters of the metal blocks are mainly related to the critical mass.

“Comrades, according to the design of the theoretical team, the thickness of this fuel layer sphere is 15.4 cm. The uranium block as the target body is placed at the nose cone, so the nose cone is slightly thicker than the side wall by 1.77 cm. In addition.”

Zhu Guangya quickly introduced the specific parameters, then looked at Wang Chengshu, the only female comrade in the front row, and asked her: "Comrade Chengshu, you are an expert in this field, with rich research and development experience, and you are also a 504 factory." We are old employees who have worked with Comrade Chengzong for a long time, and their tacit understanding is a little higher than others."

“So the organization wants to assign this task to your team. What do you think?”

Wang Chengshu was listening to the introduction attentively. After hearing the words, he stood up from his seat neatly, his short and capable hair shaking twice in the air:

 “Guaranteed to complete the task!”

Wang Chengshu had intended to take over this task as early as the introduction of Zhu Guangya's speech. Now that Zhu Guangya directly called her name, Wang Chengshu naturally had no reason to shirk.

 Zhu Guangya also nodded to her.

 Xu Yun on the side couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion when he saw this.

　　With the release of the movie "Oppenheimer" in later generations, Ms. Wu Jianxiong's popularity suddenly increased a lot.

 Because many of Ms. Wu Jianxiong's contributions were ignored in this film, domestic public opinion, led by certain groups, began to criticize Nolan, the director of "Oppenheimer", for sexism.

Xu Yun sighed at that time. Fortunately, this movie was made by a foreign director. If it had been a domestic movie, the public opinion would have exploded.

At the same time, in Xu Yun's view.

 Ms. Wu Jianxiong's ability is indeed very strong, this is undeniable.

 But she changed her nationality very early, and the beneficiaries of all her contributions were across the sea. Even the place of death was in New York. Strictly speaking, her contributions had nothing to do with the country.

 At least judging from Xu Yun's "shallow and narrow" spiritual realm, compared to Wu Jianxiong, Wang Chengshu is the strange woman who truly deserves to be regarded as an idol in China.

  But what's the result?

Oh, just because Wang Chengshu is from China, just because she was not as handsome as Wu Jianxiong when she was young, and just because she later became an academician and was not "suppressed", so she is not counted as "disappeared" by those groups. Book a special book?

The difference in popularity between the two topics on Weibo alone is 1,734 times. Wu Jianxiong's science popularization has hundreds of comments, and only two or three likes mentioning Wang Chengshu.

What is the difference between this and "Shabi" being widely praised, while the documentary "Shen Jilan" is ignored?

At that time, Xu Yun also saw someone under a well-known account that mentioned Wu Jianxiong and asked why he didn't mention Academician Wang Chengshu. The blogger was stunned and replied: "Wang Chengshu's mouth is too crooked, and he doesn't look good."

 How deplorable.

 Follow.

 Zhu Guangya assigned the task of developing the polonium protective layer to an expert whose name Xu Yun had never heard of. This person was called Feng Ji. According to Lao Guo, he was the expert with the deepest research on membrane materials in the base.

 That's right, membrane material.

The so-called polonium protective layer is not a metal shell, but a special type of film protective layer—because the main body of the polonium has been isolated by the supporting equipment of the neutron source.

This kind of film protective layer can be made from lanthanum chromate perovskite. The difficulty is not low, but the advantage is that the process is very fixed, and it can be solved basically by relying on the accumulation.

 Half an hour later.

Zhu Guangya's eyes suddenly froze when he looked at the audience, and his right hand holding the bamboo pole also exerted some faint force.

 Now that the first four tasks have been assigned, today's baton handover meeting has also entered its final stage.

but

 This stage is not easy.

  After all, the remaining plane wave generators and neutron reflection layers are all absolutely difficult to apply.

Even with the various parameters and diagrams calculated by the theory department, they can still be called big bosses.

Zhu Guangya then took a deep breath and pointed the bamboo stick at a structure slightly outside the atomic bomb:

“Comrades, everyone should know that an ordinary bomb explodes from the inside out, and it is a diffuse detonation wave that spreads outward from a point detonation.”

“However, implosion compression is different. It can detonate at multiple points to create a spherical wave that converges inward. This focusing effect can increase the pressure and improve the compression effect on the compressed object.”

“But it requires simultaneous detonation at all points, simultaneous development of detonation wave propagation, and inward propagation and compression of the spherical waveform at all times.”

“And if you want to integrate this kind of spherical wave, you must first solve the problem of plane wave generator.”

Synchronize.

  This is a very common word in the development process of nuclear weapons.

 The so-called synchronization means that each step is consistent in time.

 For example, a number of concentric circles are drawn on a playground, with each circle one step apart.

There are many students standing evenly on the outer circle. When given an order, they all march to the center. Each student must step into the inner circle at the same time with every step.

 But the problem is

 For ordinary students who do not have very high military literacy, this kind of movement is difficult to do in a neat manner - because everyone's stride may be different.

And if the walking is not neat, the formation lines on the circumference will become zigzag.

The distance between such zigzag shapes is called "waveform difference". The waveform difference can be measured in time, and its meaning is the time difference between each point of the detonation wave front arriving at the same radius.

 The propagation speed of the detonation wave is known, and the spatial distance difference in the fluctuations of the detonation wave front at a certain moment can be calculated based on the time amount of the waveform difference.

For example, if the detonation speed of an explosive is 7,000 per second, and the waveform difference between two points on the wave front is 1 microsecond (one millionth of a second), then the distance difference between the two points on the wave front is 7 microns.

 This kind of distance is absolutely not allowed to exist during the detonation process of an atomic bomb, so these waveform differences must be integrated.

 As for the integration method.

  The natural way is to reduce the points into planes and then detonate the planes.

 The speed difference after plane detonation can be optimized according to the detonation speed of the explosive. The specific parameters in this regard have been calculated by >.

  But still the same sentence.

 Plane wave generator is not a simple module that can be solved with parameters. There may even be some situations in its production process that are larger than can be calculated.

 As for who will be responsible for this project?

 Xu Yun also frowned.

The person responsible for this calculation in history was Wang Ganchang, and he was indeed a very suitable candidate.

 But the problem is

Now, under the instigation of Xu Yun's tweeting wings, the hydrogen bomb project is expected to be carried out simultaneously.

 Compared with atomic bombs, Wang Ganchang can obviously play a stronger role in hydrogen bombs.

Therefore, if the task of plane wave generator is once handed over to this "king", the possibility of simultaneous development of hydrogen bombs will be very low.

 It is true.

 Nuclear weapons is a very collective project, but this does not mean that individual strength can be ignored.

There are almost no domestic substitutes for Wang Ganchang's abilities, so from an inner perspective, Xu Yun doesn't really want Wang Ganchang to be assigned to the plane wave generator project.

 But if it wasn't Wang Ganchang, who could take on this important role?

more than the?

 Apparently inappropriate.

 Yu Da's ability mainly lies in theory, and he is a well-known weak chicken in terms of application.

 Lao Guo?

Neither.

Although Lao Guo is engaged in applications, his direction is mainly in fluids, and there are the same barriers as plane wave generators.

Just when Xu Yun frowned.

Zhu Guangya on the stage suddenly looked in a certain direction and announced a name that Xu Yun had not expected:

“Comrade Qian Wushi, are you willing to accept this task?”

Note:

  15 surgery, 16-18 postoperative observation period, we will lose contact for a few days starting tomorrow, and the next updates will be released automatically.
