University of Chicago.
It was a silent late night, a bit cold.
The lights in the university dormitories have long been turned off, and the teaching buildings have long been turned off. Only in a corner of the university, in an ordinary laboratory building, the light is still shining.
"Okay, it's perfect, close work!" In the laboratory, a tall middle-aged man said to his group of students: "This is the end of today's experiment. In the past few days, we must complete the experimental data. Analysis, and get a model of chain reaction growth."
"Yes." The students agreed, looking at the lead-sealed container, they were extremely excited. There was a small nuclear reactor there, and their mentor was the greatest physicist of this era!
Enrique Fermi has many auras on his body. The father of neutron physics, he is famous in the field of high energy physics research.
He was originally Italian, but unfortunately, when Mussolini of Italy came to power, he began to persecute him because his wife was Jewish and Fermi was also very disgusted with Mussolini's party.
As a result, Fermi fled to the United States, where he could continue his own research. After being hired as a professor at the University of Chicago, he was here, in addition to taking students, also engaged in scientific research.
For example, the equipment next to it is the world's first experimental atomic reactor developed by Fermi, and he successfully carried out a controlled chain reaction.
In fact, Germany has been ahead of him for several years and conducted experiments, but Germany has always been secret, so in Fermi's eyes, his equipment is the first in the world.
The basic principle of the chain reaction is simple, but it is very difficult to model it with a complete mathematical model. Fermi is now doing this process.
At the same time, only Fermi knew that the United States was carrying out a huge project, and he participated in the design of the value-added reactor.
However, Fermi does not like to go to Oak Ridge, it is too desolate, Fermi prefers to stay in the university and conduct in-depth research on the reactor with these university students.
Many of his students will become experts in nuclear physics in the United States, and many of them will enter Oak Ridge to work on Fermi’s recommendation.
Fermi also knew that although he didn't want to go to Oak Ridge, it wouldn't be too long. It would last for a year or two at most. After the facilities there are complete, he and his students must also pass.
It's not bad to be with my own students.
The experiment tonight has been carried out until eleven o'clock, and now it is finally completed.
Fermi took his students and left the laboratory.
"Well, it's about twelve o'clock, let's have something to eat." Fermi said.
As a university professor, Fermi's salary is very good, and he makes a lot of income with his students doing projects. Therefore, at this time, Fermi likes to invite his students to eat supper.
Immediately, the students around cheered, the teacher is so kind!
They are all young and energetic, and Fermi likes to be with the students.
More than a dozen people are walking in the quiet campus. At the entrance of the campus, there is a restaurant open 24 hours a day.
"Buzz, buzz." At this moment, behind him, the sound of a large-displacement motorcycle suddenly rang out. The sound stimulated everyone's eardrums. In the dark, this kind of sound was annoying.
Fermi took the students and leaned quickly to the side of the road. At this time, the people who appeared must be daredevils. Maybe they were drinking. It was quite unlucky to be hit by such a person.
Everyone leaned to the side of the road, and at the same time, with contemptuous eyes, looked at the motorcycle that quickly came by.
A brand new Harley-Davidson motorcycle with dazzling headlights. Behind the motorcycle sits a beautiful blonde woman without a helmet.
In their contemptuous gaze, the motorcycle drove to their side. At this moment, everyone panicked.
I saw the beauty behind, holding a submachine gun in her hand!
"Da da, da da da!" The submachine gun fired violently, and the dense bullets shot at them!
No one can escape, the distance is too close! A 9mm bullet hit them. They screamed and felt this terrible pain. They were all students!
Five bullets hit Fermi's body. He lowered his head, looked at his body incredible, and slowly leaned back. Before he died, he was still guessing in his brain.
Islander or German?
"Boom, boom!" After the bullet of the submachine gun was finished, the beauty behind also threw out two grenades!
Then, the motorcycle continued to twist the throttle and jumped out into the darkness.
When the security guards in the campus arrived, the motorcycles were long gone.
Fermi's eyes did not close.
………
Ranch School, Los Alamos, New Mexico.
This place is not very famous, it is just an ordinary place that can no longer be ordinary, and a group of people have arrived these days.
In the school’s meeting room, the lights are shining It is relatively secretive and the environment is good. I think we can build a laboratory here. Let’s call this place Y. "The person speaking is no longer young, and he often appears in newspapers.
US Secretary of the Treasury Robert Anderson, at the same time, he also has the identity of a board of directors of the University of California. And here, it can be regarded as a branch of the University of California.
"This is an extremely correct decision you made." There was an immediate response from his side.
Oppenheimer, the chief scientist of the Manhattan Project, beside him, there are several other famous scientists, Ernest Lawrence and Leslie Richard Groves.
They came here for another matter, a matter of great importance in the Manhattan Project.
The Oak Ridge base has already entered work. However, it is not enough to have the Oak Ridge base. It is a production base. They also need a special laboratory for scientific research. After all, many people don’t like to stay there. Oak Ridge.
This is the place where Oppenheimer lived since he was a child. He liked it. He believed that other experts also liked it. In later generations, this is the famous Los Alamos National Laboratory, a famous science city and High-tech radiation source, one of the largest multifunctional laboratories in the world.
Oppenheimer is the creator of this laboratory. Now, its establishment is mainly to solve the difficulty of resource allocation in the primary research on nuclear weapons carried out in several universities in the United States.
(I don’t know if you look boring or not. Huadongzhixiong is a physics teacher. These scientists are all like thunder! Now, Huadongzhixiong is going to kill them all, and I feel heavy...) ()
