Chapter 112 Superheavy Nuclear Stable Island Elements

The study is not very big, it is one size smaller than in the old castle, but it is fully furnished: desks, wooden chairs, bookcases, wooden shelves, oil lamps...

Lighting the oil lamp to illuminate everything in the study, Richard took several papyrus scrolls from the bookcase, spread them out on the table, and then took quills and inkwells from the wooden shelf and placed them on the table.

By the light of the oil lamp, Li Cha looked at an open papyrus scroll on the table, which was some speculation about mana a few days ago, and it was full of handwriting. His eyes fell on it, and Li Cha read it out softly.

"What is the nature of mana? What is the nature of free energy elements? Since they can be used to release spells to produce some kind of change, does it mean that they are a kind of substance, a special substance, a kind of Substance not found?

In other words, could the free energy elements be chemical elements, or could they be special chemical elements that have not yet been discovered on the modern earth?

As we all know, all substances are made of elements, hydrogen and oxygen make up water molecules, and then form more than half of the body's components. The rest of the things are the same, the numerous elements that make up everything in the material world.

Elements are constantly being explored on modern earth.

In 1789, the French nobleman Antoine Lavoisier published a list of 33 chemical elements, which was the original exploration. After that, in 1869, Russian chemistry professor Dmitry Mendeleev published a periodic table including 63 elements, laying the foundation for the development of chemical elements. After that, chemical elements were continuously added to the periodic table, from the initial 63 kinds, to finally developed into a huge family covering 118 kinds of chemical elements.

However, this does not mean that we have a comprehensive understanding of these 118 elements.

Among the 118 chemical elements, only 98 elements from 1 to 98 exist in nature: 84 are primary nuclides, and the other 14 appear in the decay chain of primary elements.

From the 99th element einsteinium to the 118th element Qi Ao (Oganesson, Og, one word in simplified Chinese, upper Qi and lower Ao, but cannot be displayed), these 20 elements do not exist in normal circumstances. In nature, it can only be obtained through artificial synthesis. Even if it is synthesized, it will disappear quickly. This is because these elements are highly radioactive and decay rapidly into the remaining elements, making them almost impossible to study.

For example, element 99, einsteinium, was found on modern Earth in the remnants of the first hydrogen bomb explosion in 1952 and was named after physicist Albert Einstein. The half-life is 20.47 days, and its isotope einsteinium-253 loses 3% of its mass every day, and soon decays into berkelium and californium, which is very difficult to preserve, and even more difficult to study. Because it was put into the machine one second ago, it was still einsteinium, and when it was taken out of the machine the next second, it had become beryllium and californium.

Another example is the 118th element Qi Ao, which was confirmed and discovered in December 2015 on the modern earth, and the decay time is in the millisecond level, that is, about one thousandth of a second. Compared to Einsteinium, Qi Ao didn't even have time to put it into the machine, and he couldn't even observe it. The shortest time for the human eye to recognize an object is 0.04 seconds. Before the human eye can react, Qi Ao has decayed dozens of times. For Qi Ao, scientists can only use a series of data to prove that it has been manufactured. They can only say, "Look, Qi Ao once existed here", but cannot say, "Look, this is Qi Ao".

Therefore, for most of the elements after the 99th element einsteinium, it is temporarily impossible to observe and study on the macroscopic scale on the modern earth. As for the elements behind the 118th element Qi Ao, they could not be synthesized due to technical problems.

However, there is no way to observe and study at the macro scale, which does not mean that the element has no attributes, because the technology cannot be synthesized and it does not mean that the element does not exist.

In fact,

The elements are there, no matter how advanced the technology is. Just like Uranus and Neptune, because the astronomical level cannot reach it, it cannot be discovered for thousands of years, but it is there.

From this, can it be boldly guessed that the free energy element is a special element after the 118th element Qi Ao that has not yet been discovered on the modern earth?

This speculation is very possible.

In fact, according to a series of studies on superheavy elements on the modern earth, there is a common conclusion: as the number of sequences increases, the superheavy elements that will be discovered in the future will undergo some magical changes.

According to the calculation of the Bohr model, v=Zac≈Zc/137.036.

Z is the atomic number, c is the speed of light, α is the fine structure constant, and v is the speed of electrons in the element. In this model, when the atomic number is greater than 137, electrons inside the element travel faster than the speed of light and begin to have relativistic effects.

According to the calculation of Dirac's equation, E=mc2·√1-Z2a2.

When the atomic number is greater than 137, the wave function of the Dirac ground state will become a wave dynamic, with no gap between the positive and negative energy ranges, forming a situation similar to Klein's paradox. That is, relativistic particles can easily pass through high and wide potential barriers, with a success rate of up to 100%, leading to the emergence of magical phenomena such as massless Dirac quasiparticles in graphene.

All in all, in a word, elements with higher sequence numbers exist in theory and have a series of magical properties.

In addition, according to the theory of 'superheavy nuclear stability island' on modern Earth, near a certain element of higher sequence, the nucleus will have high stability, around which there may be a 'stable island composed of hundreds of superheavy element nuclei' island'. The superheavy elements located in the "stable island" will be delayed, resulting in the element's existence in the environment for a long time, reaching several hours or even several days, thus having the value of storage, research and use.

These correspond exactly to the free energy elements. "

"Huh", let out a breath, Li Cha finished reading the contents of the scroll recorded a few days ago, put it aside, took a blank scroll in front of him, held the quill pen, thought about it, and continued to write.

"Swish..."

"To sum up, a hypothetical inference can be made that free energy elements are superheavy elements with higher sequence numbers that have not been found on Earth.

In this hypothetical inference, the spell is like a chemical reaction.

Just like some ordinary elements combined with each other, specific reactions will occur when they come into contact with each other. For example, sodium and water will react and explode. In the same way, when some free energy elements contact and react with each other, specific phenomena will also occur, or explosion, or freezing, or acid corrosion, that is, the so-called magic effect. "

The quill in Richard's hand stopped for a moment, his eyes lit up as he pondered. After a moment, the quill in his hand fell and he continued to write.
