Chapter 688: Breaking Through the Bottleneck of Quantum Physics
Although the understanding of this super quantum is still at a very preliminary stage.
But no matter what, being able to confirm the existence of this super quantum is a huge step forward.
This huge breakthrough also gave Xu You great confidence in realizing true quantum communication technology.
…
In the quantum physics laboratory of Jijing University, Xu You and others started the kick-off meeting of the quantum information project.
In addition to Xu You, Lin Shi and others, Professor Wang Xiangwu's experimental group also joined in as an important member of the entire project.
"If you want to use quantum to achieve instantaneous transmission of information over distance, the key is to find entangled quantum pairs that have the ability to transmit information . Here, I introduce a new concept: super quantum."
Everyone seemed a little surprised to hear this concept that had never appeared before, and they didn't know what Xu You meant.
"This is a new concept I have recently proposed. So far, no evidence has been found to prove their existence. But I believe that judging from the level of civilization of the initiator of the 'asteroid visit' event, it is very possible to achieve such technology."
"So-called 'super quantum' refers to special quantum that far exceeds ordinary quantum in terms of energy and other aspects. They can carry more information, so we can use the correlation of quantum entanglement to achieve the purpose of transmitting information..."
Xu You introduced the concept of super quantum to everyone. According to current human research on quantum physics, quantum entanglement can only allow two entangled quantum particles to be related in physical properties, but cannot transmit any information.
What Xu You hopes to achieve is to break the bottleneck of existing quantum physics and achieve a new technological leap.
Of course, Xu You chose to keep silent about the discovery of two super quantums in his body, otherwise many things would bring him some unnecessary trouble if he explained them.
After listening to the concepts explained by Xu You, everyone felt that their cognition had been refreshed.
"Super quantum...it's really a novel and exciting concept." Wang Xiangwu exclaimed.
After the rocket heart was implanted, Wang Xiangwu has been in very good condition. This time he also has the opportunity to help Xu You again to conduct research on a major project.
Zhao Weijia, who was beside Wang Xiangwu, listened carefully to Xu You's story and took notes from time to time.
After several years of hard work, Zhao Weijia published several very good papers, which made him an associate professor at Jijing University and he is not far from being promoted to professor.
"Academician Xu, I would like to ask, what information should be included in the information transmission that we ultimately want to achieve?" Zhao Weijia asked.
"There are many types of information here, including images, videos, sounds, electromagnetic waves, volume, temperature, mass, and so on. As long as one piece of information can be transmitted, it means that quantum information technology is completely feasible. How to realize the transmission of corresponding information requires the accumulation of theories and experiments in the future."
Xu You answered the question raised by Zhao Weijia seriously and was quite satisfied with the question he asked .
The current Zhao Weijia is no longer the important figure of Xu You. He has the ability to stand on his own in the laboratory.
After explaining the concept of super quantum, Xu You continued to talk about how to achieve instantaneous information transmission under the super state.
"Okay, let's assume that this super quantum that can transmit information does exist. Then if we want to achieve information transmission, there are two ways. The first is to find this entangled super quantum in the universe and use it for our own benefit."
"This method is indeed theoretically possible, but in the vast universe, finding entangled quantum pairs that meet our requirements is even more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack."
Xu You knew that even if he searched the entire universe, he might not be able to find many super quantum pairs . What's more, these super quantum pairs were very difficult to control.
"The second way is for us to prepare this super quantum pair and then send one of the super quantum particles in a certain direction. This does not allow us to immediately obtain information from a long distance, but in a few years, we can use this super quantum pair to instantly obtain information from a light-year away."
It is relatively easy to make a quantum particle run at the speed of light, let alone a super quantum particle that theoretically has high energy.
After more than an hour, Xu You finished explaining the general direction of the entire project.
"Next, the first thing we need to do is to figure out how to inject more energy into the quantum while keeping the quantum relatively stable so that it can absorb and store this energy."
After the opening meeting, everyone returned to their own laboratories for the time being to think about the specific plans for the next experiment.
In fact, Xu You is the same. Although the general direction of the experiment is relatively clear, he has not yet determined how to implement it specifically.
At this time, Lin Shi was sitting in his seat, looking thoughtful, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
"Lin Shi, do you have any ideas?" Xu You asked.
"Well, teacher, I have a lot of ideas, but most of them are problems that I don't have any ideas for solving."
"It's okay. Being able to raise a question is the first step to solving it. Tell me about it and we can study it together."
In the field of physics, Xu You has always regarded Lin Shi as his most intimate discussion partner, even though many more experienced scientists are much more professional than Lin Shi, and Xu You does not have the feeling of chatting with friends.
"Okay, teacher, let me tell you. First of all, I was thinking, if super quantum really exists, how do they get energy? I mean, how do they get energy when running in a vacuum?"
Hearing Lin Shi's question, Xu You couldn't help but start thinking about it.
In fact, when Xu You discovered the two super quantums in his body, he had already been thinking about this problem.
What is certain is that they do not rely on energy such as solar energy to obtain energy, nor do they do so through methods such as nuclear fusion.
"Teacher, my idea is that super quantum must have a very special way to obtain energy. This method may be different from any method we know of to obtain energy."
Listening to Lin Shi's words, Xu You's inspiration seemed to be suddenly awakened, and he thought of a new possibility.
