I Made Scientific Magic - Chapter 394

Chapter 394 The Alpha Particle at 20,000 Kilometers per Second

Under Lynn’s order, Eloque and others who were waiting in the audience quickly brought up the props for this experiment.

Very concise, there are only three things in total!

A palm-sized lead box and a circular detection device.

The end is a gold foil with a width of only 0.1 microns!

It took Lin En a full day to make this thing. If he hadn’t become a great wizard, it would be impossible to achieve such precision with the current level of craftsmanship…

After all the experimental equipment was prepared, Lynn stopped playing tricks, looked around at the wizards in the conference room, and said solemnly.

“Everyone, the atomic model hypotheses you put forward just now are very exciting, but whether a theoretical theory is in line with reality, after all, it still needs to be proved by experiments!”

“Naturally!” Anthony nodded.

He is very confident in his elemental purple fruit model, but he has to admit that the ideas put forward by some congressmen are also very interesting.

For example, Adela, the flame wizard, believes that the electrons inside the elements are arranged according to the interweaving of positive and negative charges, so they can be closely combined, and will not gather together to form a solid structure because of the repulsion of the same sex. atom.

In addition to this, there are more than ten different theories, such as the nature of water droplets, the outer shape, and the theory of elemental solidity, all of which have a certain degree of rationality…

However, how to verify is undoubtedly the most troublesome problem for all wizards who propose elemental models.

Because the element itself is too small, they tried countless methods but couldn’t crush it. Some wizards even used the principle of concave-convex mirrors to research ultra-high-magnification microscopic magic, but they still couldn’t see anything, so I am very curious about what means this star of magic will use to verify this.

Lin En didn’t mean to be secretive, so he quickly explained.

Alpha particles are scattered from the inside of the radium element, which also means that its volume is much smaller than many elements, and its speed is extremely fast. More importantly, it has the ability to escape the control of elements.

“According to my calculations, the speed of the alpha particle is about 20,000 kilometers per second…” Lynn said.

“20,000 kilometers…” Sanchez clicked his tongue, shocked by the outrageous data.

Although they have already calculated an even more outrageous speed of light, the speed in units of 10,000 kilometers per second is still beyond their reach…

Anthony was also extremely surprised, thinking that in the [Cloud Room] just now, the surge of the trail of fog was almost instantaneous, so fast that even great wizards like them could not react. This is enough to prove that Lynn is not in the Deliberate exaggeration!

“So you are going to use this new particle to hit and destroy the shell of the element?” Harov quickly thought of this.

Generally speaking, the faster a thing is, the more powerful its destructive power. The advantage of the alpha element is that it is small enough, and it may be able to break open the shell of the element and make it burst.

“No, I don’t think the atom has a shell, everything about it is exposed…” Lynn shook his head and said seriously.

“How is this possible?” Vittorio frowned and retorted. “All the elements are in motion all the time. If there is no protection of the shell, wouldn’t the things inside have been thrown out after thousands of years…”

The wizards in the audience were also discussing and arguing. Lin En’s remarks were too outrageous. If the star of magic hadn’t proved his talent in magic research time and time again, someone would have stood up to refute it. up.

In their imagination, the element should be in the shape of a sphere, surrounded by an extremely hard shell, so as to protect the internal material from damage during the passage of time.

Facing everyone’s questioning eyes, Lynn asked with a smile. “Composite elements also don’t have shells, so don’t they also last for a long time?”

According to the existing theory of the wizard’s land, the reason why those compound elements can stick together firmly is that they are connected by something called element co-bonding, so they will not be separated easily. In fact, it is a chemical bond, just two The names are different between the worlds.

Hearing this, Vittorio and the others were taken aback for a moment, and then they thought about whether there might be a similar force inside the element, which could firmly bind the matter inside.

Lin En didn’t continue his long-winded explanation. What he said was unsubstantiated, and facts are the best evidence.

During the delay, Eloque and others have already set up the experimental platform. In fact, they will use magic to make the gold foil suspend in the center of the detection device.

Then put the lead box facing the gold foil, open a small hole in the front, and put a certain amount of radium in it. Since lead can effectively protect against radiation, alpha particles will only be ejected from the small hole of the lead box, forming a beam of high-energy particles. Rays hit the gold foil continuously.

The gold foil is surrounded by a ring-shaped detection device, with fluorescent paint attached to it, as long as it touches the alpha particles, it will emit light, so that the movement of the particles can be determined.

As for why gold is used, of course, it is because of the extremely strong extensibility of this thing. Only 1 gram of natural gold can stretch out several kilometers of gold wires, which can ensure that the elements that the rays pass through in a straight line are limited, and the interference items drop to lowest…

After roughly explaining the experimental process, Lynn opened the hole in the lead box, and a beam of rays invisible to the naked eye immediately hit the gold foil.

Both alpha particles and gold atoms are so tiny that they cannot be seen with the naked eye, but wizards naturally have wizard methods, especially the great wizard’s strong perception ability, which can detect subtle changes at the atomic level.

After the domain was expanded, the whole piece of gold leaf became another look in their eyes. The gold elements were arranged in an orderly manner, blocking the front like a solid wall.

It’s just that the wall is not as strong as they imagined, because small dots soon lit up on the detection device at the rear, which means that the alpha particles directly passed through the gold foil and touched the fluorescent substance behind.

“It went straight through!” Harov murmured softly, the position of the light spot and the direction of the hole in the lead box are directly opposite, without any deviation.

Anthony, who also discovered this, couldn’t help but frowned, which was different from what he had imagined.

It is necessary to know that alpha particles also have a magnetic field response, which also means that if the other party comes into contact with positive and negative electrons, it will also be disturbed.
