Chapter 779 The Ultimate Defense

In the large SQUID superconducting quantum interferometer laboratory, under the arrangement of Xu Chuan, the magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator began a new round of experiments.

The high-frequency glow plate customized and transported from Xinghai Research Institute is deployed between the interference source and the test device. After being connected to the power supply, the inert gas in the high-frequency glow plate is rapidly ionized, emitting different rays of blue-purple and pink.

This is the color formed by argon and helium after ionization, and the purpose is to facilitate the observation of the affected state of plasma in the magnetic polarization field.

At the beginning, the plasma in these high-frequency glow plates was evenly distributed in the glass plate and stood still.

When the magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator starts to operate, the plasma in the glow plate is like iron filings in the magnetic field, and is affected by magnetic force and begins to flow slowly.

The blue-purple and pink inert plasma seemed to have a shape at this moment, like a wisp of rainbow, flowing in the glow plate.

"The magnetic polarization field is stable, and all indicators have met the requirements."

In the laboratory, the researchers' reports sounded in Xu Chuan and Ouyang Zhen's ears. Xu Chuan nodded and issued an order.

“Open high-power microwave attack.”

"receive!"

The attack experiment officially began. After the engineers in the laboratory were ready, they evacuated one after another, and the rest of the work was left to the intelligent equipment for handling.

This is a combination of soft and hard route. Through sensors and advanced mathematical algorithms, related equipment can monitor and protect various threats such as high-power microwaves, radiation, electromagnetic waves and other threats in real time and achieve timely protection.

As the staff completed the final commissioning, the high-power microwave equipment was officially opened and headed towards the working glow plate and test device.

Through the monitoring device, you can clearly see that the color plasma in the glow plate shines at the moment when the high-power microwave device is turned on.

This is because when high-power microwaves and electromagnetic radiation enter this plasma cloud, the neutral slurry electrons inside will burst out energy, break out of the ionic state, and become free electrons.

As high-energy electromagnetic waves continue, more and more high-energy free electrons will crazily impact other electrons - ion units, thus causing more electrons to escape. After being accelerated by the electromagnetic field, these knocked electrons also become the role of "cannonballs", forming a chain reaction, and the number of free electrons in the plasma increases faster and faster.

This is the electron avalanche effect.

It is precisely because of the electron avalanche effect that plasma intercepts high-energy microwaves, electromagnetic waves and radiation attacks that can become a reality.

Because when enough free electrons accumulate in the plasma, from a macroscopic perspective, it is very similar to metal as a whole.

In this way, the plasma in the glow plate is equivalent to a metal mesh that can shield the electromagnetic field.

The magnetic polarized field serves as the responsibility of stabilizing and controlling the plasma wall in this process.

Without the former, the interception effect of high-power microwaves and various radiation will be much lower. Without the latter, the plasma in the glow plate will overflow and spread after encountering incident microwaves and radiation, making it difficult to play a defensive role.

The two complement each other and complement each other.

The test equipment arranged behind maintained stable operation throughout the whole process and was not significantly affected by high-power microwaves.

.........

The attack test against high-power microwaves and electromagnetic radiation has not been conducted for very long, and in just ten minutes, it is enough to see the effect.

Soon, the relevant experimental data were printed out through the printer and sent to Xu Chuan and Ouyang Zhen.

From the printed report, it can be clearly seen that the peak power of high-power microwave output is 10W/cm2.

The microwave beam intensity at this level is already quite amazing.

It should be noted that when the microwave beam intensity reaches 0.01-1W/cm2, the command, control, communication and intelligence (C3I) systems, as well as the electronic components in weapon system equipment and the chips of small computer systems can be interfered and failed.

In 2003, the high-power microwave weapon developed by the United States had a strength of 3.2W/cm2. It was the first time to use the Tomahawk cruise missile to carry high-intensity microwave weapons, which completely destroyed Xiao Yi's air defense system.

When a strong microwave beam of 10-100W/cm2 irradiates the target, the electromagnetic field formed by irradiation on the target can generate induced current on the surface of the metal, causing the functions of electronic components to be malfunctioned, causing errors in codes, interrupt data or interrupt information transmission, and erasing the information stored by the computer.

Although after twenty years of development, the strength of high-power microwave weapons has been higher than the next level, only a very small number of countries can do it to break through the intensity of 10W/cm2.

Of course, here we refer to the 'long-term' microwave attack similar to this experiment, rather than the bomb made of a magnetic storm compression generator.

The latter is made by the shock wave and huge pressure generated by explosives that cause the magnetic field of the pre-installed coil to be compressed sharply, and the current intensity inside it reaches extremely high numbers in a very short time.

For example, a 'microwave bomb' developed by Boeing is only the size of a laptop, but it can produce microwave pulses up to ten gigahertz and frequency exceeding twenty or even thirty gigahertz when it explodes.

This instantaneous microwave pulse has greater lethality, but it is easier to be intercepted than the current mainstream microwave weapons developed.

Because it can only produce a killing effect at the moment of explosion, and the duration is relatively short.

At present, the mainstream research and development routes are all directed to launch microwaves and pulsed electromagnetic waves. Many countries have even integrated it into missiles to paralyze the enemy's electronic equipment within the range while penetrating.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! And compared with lethality, the application fields of high-power microwave weapons are targeted at radar systems, communication systems, computers and guidance systems, and electronic components.

Compared with traditional weapons of destruction, microwave weapons are more soft-killing and are mainly aimed at mechanical equipment.

Of course, there are also biological ones, but relatively speaking, the power density required will be higher, and the technical difficulty will be higher.

......

"The plasma in the glow plate is stable!"

"The magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator works stably!"

"The test device sensed the microwave intensity of 0.0145W/cm2..."

In the laboratory, listening to the researchers' reports and looking at the experimental data in his hands, Academician Ming Chengbi, an expert from the Navy Equipment Office who came with Ouyang Zhen, couldn't help swallowing, and finally asked:

"How did you... do it? Why is the plasma in the glow tube so stable?"

The high-power microwave with an intensity of 10W/cm2 was directly reduced to 0.0145W/cm2 after filtering or shielding by this experimental device, which was nearly a hundred times weakened, which is simply unimaginable.

What he could not imagine even more was the stability of the inert plasma state in the glow tube.

After all, using plasma to weaken high-energy microwaves is not a solution that has never been proposed. As early as the last century, some people discovered that plasma can interfere with and defend against high-energy microwaves, electromagnetic radiation, high-energy rays, etc.

Including the "Research on Low-Temperature Plasma for High-Power Microwave Protection" released by the National University of Defense Technology at the beginning of the year, it also went in this direction.

But to this day, this technology is still in the theoretical research stage and there is still a long way to go before it is practical.

One of the most critical problems is the instability of plasma in a high-energy state.

In fact, after all, plasma control is difficult.

When we studied controlled nuclear fusion technology before, it was extremely difficult to control its flow in a vacuum-sealed fusion reactor chamber, let alone achieve this in the atmosphere or in a vacuum.

Ming Chengbi could hardly imagine how this plasma, even if inert gas ionization, was maintained so stable under the interference of microwave radiation.

Even though he has been specializing in the field of electromagnetics for decades, he has never thought of any way to do this kind of maintenance.

After all, if this technology is really so easy, it has been developed long ago, and I don’t know that it has been a century-old problem.

Hearing this question, Xu Chuan smiled, pointing his mouth at the magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator placed in front of the test equipment, and explained:

"The only thing that can stabilize plasma is the magnetic field. This magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator is the core foundation. It uses magnetic polarization electromagnetic field to complete the traction and control of the plasma field, and completes the core work through the electron avalanche effect and magnetic monopole field."

Upon hearing this, Ming Chengbi was stunned.

He frowned, as if he couldn't believe the explanation he had heard.

After thinking for a while in his mind and confirming that there was no problem with his memory, he looked at Xu Chuan and frowned and asked:

"I know the electron avalanche effect, but... the magnetic polarization field, isn't this a technology that doesn't even have a perfect theory?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Before the unified theory of strong electric power is completed, this is indeed a technology that has not even been completed in theory."

"But some time ago, it has been completed. This magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator is a device made based on the magnetic polarization field theory."

"You mean the magnetic polarization field theory?"

The moment he heard this, Academician Ming Chengbi's heart was shocked. He looked at Xu Chuan with a daze, and asked with disbelief on his face:

"But if I remember correctly, the unified theory of strong electricity is the result of your public release in May this year, right?"

Xu Chuan nodded and smiled: "Yes, the strong-electric unified theory is indeed the result of May. But the magnetic polaron field theory is not. It is based on the polaron theory research on the strong-electrophonon interaction system in the strong-electric unified theory. It is just that the strong-electric unified theory fully confirms it."

This is true. Although the magnetic polaron field theory was only perfected after the unified theory of strong electric power, its basis is indeed the polaron theory of strong electrophonon interaction system.

Despite this, this sentence was like spring thunder in the ears of Academician Ming Chengbi.

Suppressing his shock, he swallowed and continued, "But even so, how did you apply this theory to practical research so quickly?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Aren't we still studying it?"

"At present, this can only be considered a semi-finished product, because the pole lines of the magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator are too disordered, resulting in the low guiding rate of the magnetic polaron field, which also leads to its guidance efficiency for plasma not meeting the standard, and further optimization research is needed in the future."

He paused slightly, and his eyes looked at the magnetic polaron electromagnetic shield generator in the center of the laboratory, and then said: "If this problem can be completely solved, then the protection of particles such as high-power microwaves and electromagnetic radiation will reach the extreme."

As he said that, he glanced at the old academician and smiled and said, "President Ouyang Shi should be very clear about this technology. Didn't he tell you?"

On the side, Ouyang Zhen shook his head gently and said, "Academician Xu, the technology you are studying is so important. Apart from the researchers in your research institute, few people know that at present, except for the researchers in your research institute. I am not very clear about the detailed information here, I only know some general concepts."

"Because I was worried about misleading Academician Ming, I didn't inform you in advance."

It is said that it is worried about misleading, but in the final analysis, it is still a confidential relationship.

The importance of plasma·electromagnetic deflection shield technology is not even weaker than that of controlled nuclear fusion technology.

So without confirming the situation with Xu Chuan, Ouyang Zhen could not tell others about this. He just selected an old academician familiar with the fields of plasma and electromagnetics from the Navy Equipment Office to come to explore the situation.

Who can know that the above told him to come over for consultation and find out whether Academician Xu Chuan still needs help suddenly turned into a situation where he saw the "results" when he came over?

Not only was Academician Ming Chengbi shocked, but he was also shocked.

Electromagnetic shield technology that can block and intercept particle attacks such as high-power microwaves and electromagnetic radiation. If this is loaded on an aircraft carrier, it is really the world's biggest and you can go anywhere.

"Academician Xu, do you still need people for this research?"

In the laboratory, after learning about the plasma and electromagnetic deflection shield technology in Xu Chuan's mouth in detail, Academician Ming Chengbi couldn't wait to ask.

On the side, Ouyang Zhen looked at Ming Chengbi in surprise, and then smiled and helped recommend: "Academician Ming has a very profound research in the field of electromagnetics. Our Haixi electromagnetic catapult technology is developed by him."

Although he had been visiting Xu Chuan this time, he had no idea of ​​seeing if he needed help, but he was not prepared to take an academician in.

However, since Ming Chengbi took the initiative to bring up this matter, he is still willing to help recommend it.

After all, this is a good thing for the Navy Equipment Department.

Knowing the meaning of these two people's words, Xu Chuan smiled and nodded and said, "If Academician Ming wants to, he can sign an agreement and join the research work of the plasma and electromagnetic deflection shield project as a technical consultant."

Upon hearing this, Academician Ming Chengbi smiled on his face, and he quickly replied: "Of course, I can do it at any time."
