I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 733 We can do it even without his technology!

Testing Center.

Yang Fangxu inquired about the technical details from Xu Qingzhou, while Wang Wei redid the test of the quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system.

Next, we will discuss the issue of technology patent licensing.

In the aerospace field, it has two applications: one is deep space navigation and celestial exploration, which can achieve precise positioning through the "fingerprint map" of planetary magnetic fields without navigation.

Secondly, there is the spacecraft plasma protection, which can monitor the plasma sheath layer in the blackout zone when the return capsule enters the atmosphere in real time, and may solve the problem of communication interruption in the blackout zone of the return capsule.

The first patent fee for the monitoring system patent package has been finalized at 6000 million.

That's quite cheap.

It's worth noting that Xu Qingzhou spent approximately 2.2 million US dollars to develop this thing.

Based on their initial experiments, they are now developing a quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system suitable for a negative triangular plasma spherical tokamak, and the cost should be kept below 3000 million.

On January 16, Yang Fangxu and his team completed their technical exchange, officially concluding their four-day visit.

As news of the quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system spread, many domestic institutions began to stir.

This thing has a wide range of uses.

In the field of tokamak, it can monitor strong magnetic fields of Tesla-class submarines. In the military field, it is used for electromagnetic stealth and anti-submarine warfare, and for monitoring the residual magnetic field after demagnetization of submarines.

There is also a clear possibility in the medical field that the intensity of the human body's biomagnetic field, such as the magnetocardium and the brain, is in the range of 1 pT-100 fT (10-10 T), which is at the femtotes level. Theoretically, it can accurately capture weak magnetic signals at the cellular and neuron level.

No sooner had Academician Yang Fangxu left than the institute received visitation requests from institutions and universities such as the Luzhou Deep Space Exploration Laboratory and the National University of Defense Technology.

Luzhou Science Island.

"This guy who developed Tesla-class aircraft may not have been able to achieve controlled nuclear fusion, but he has produced quite a few good things related to these components."

Li Gang's expression was strange. So far, the Kyoto Materials Research Institute has not released any information regarding the project's progress.

The more this happened, the more he felt a sense of crisis.

"Academician Yang Fangxu from the 11th Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology just left yesterday and achieved many collaborations, so it seems that the quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system is performing well."

Professor Xiao Chenghan said in a deep voice.

Li Gang pondered for a moment, then said helplessly, "Old Xiao, why don't you go and take a look and see if this technology will be effective for our device?"

"Okay, I'm actually a little curious." Xiao Chenghan clicked his tongue in surprise.

Meanwhile, the Southwest Institute of Nuclear Physics, another giant in China's controlled nuclear fusion program, also received the relevant information.

Shao Yilin and Zhang Zhigao were heading to the conference room. He wanted to test his professor's reaction first: "Professor, it seems that the Institute of Materials Science has developed a brand new monitoring system."

"Ah."

Zhang Zhigao nodded slightly.

Well, it seems there's no hope.

Shao Yilin felt a chill, but he didn't give up and tentatively asked, "Could we also send someone to make contact with the people in Kyoto?"

"I have my own arrangements."

"okay."

The two entered the conference room.

The meeting officially began as soon as Zhang Zhigao arrived.

Each project team leader reported on the progress of their team.

Time passed slowly, and an hour later, Zhang Zhigao glanced around. "Alright, if everyone has no questions, let's call it a day and proceed with the details we just agreed on."

At this moment, to Zhang Zhigao's left, an elderly professor who looked to be in his fifties paused and slowly said, "The Kyoto Institute of Materials has developed a brand-new monitoring system, the quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system. I suggest that we take this opportunity to discuss whether or not to use this technology."

Others obviously knew about this as well.

After the older professor raised the issue, a young researcher spoke up first:

"A monitoring system with a speed of 100 Tesla can detect nanoscale local distortions and even capture microscopic changes in magnetic field lines at the level of 0.1 millimeters in real time. This is of great significance for us to break through the precision of magnetic field control."

"However, there has been little progress in quantum sensing research, both domestically and internationally, and the data released by the Institute of Materials Science still needs to be verified."

Across from the young man, a middle-aged man wearing glasses offered his thoughts.

"It should be fine. I heard that Academician Yang Fangxu has personally gone to verify it and praised it highly after returning."

"The question is, is that system really suitable for us?"

They chatted briefly.

Let me say a few words.

Zhang Zhigao waved his hand, and after the people present quieted down, he spoke up: "The detection system needs to meet three major prerequisites: strong field tolerance, radiation resistance, and controllable cost."

“Our device has already been designed with a traditional magnetic probe system. Now we need to shut it down, and the risk is quite high. Just to point out, the quantum sensor needs to be deployed on the inner wall of the vacuum chamber, and the space for installing the new system is limited.”

He genuinely didn't want to use any quantum sensing magnetic field monitoring system.

They were making things difficult for the other party a while ago, and now they're asking for cooperation.

Isn't this offering up one's knees?

It's just a monitoring system; at worst, he can ask the higher-ups for some money and upgrade it gradually.

"Most importantly, as Lao Yu just mentioned, the Kyoto Institute for Materials Research does not currently have a complete experimental setup. This means that the radiation resistance is entirely based on simulations and its stability under kilosecond-level irradiation in a fusion reactor has not been verified."

Zhang Zhigao paused slightly, set the tone for the matter, and said in a deep voice, "Personally, I prefer to maintain the existing mature monitoring system, or rather, upgrade and modify the existing system."

Shao Yilin felt somewhat helpless.

If he remembers correctly, last month, Professor Zhang repeatedly emphasized at a meeting that as researchers, we need to broaden our thinking, be bold in innovation, and dare to fight hard in the process of conducting research. In the process of modifying equipment, we should not be bound by the current system, but dare to try new things.

Now they're saying we can't be rash.
You've said everything.

Isn't that a bit of a double standard?

"I have no opinion."

"Yes, I agree with Academician Zhang's opinion."

Everyone knows that Academician Zhang and the Kyoto Institute for Materials Science don't get along; they even had a falling out at the European Symposium in China a few days ago. Given Academician Zhang's temperament, it's impossible for him to lower himself to buy the patent now.

Secondly, the reasons Zhang Zhigao gave are indeed true.

For a large facility like HL-2M, modification is no simple task; it can have far-reaching consequences.

Xu Qingzhou's detection system appears to be a generation more advanced than current traditional detection systems based on the data, but it has never actually been used. The huge investment in its modification means that if something goes wrong during operation, the losses could be severe.

However, this matter should be viewed from two perspectives.

Tokamak technology is constantly improving every year. Even without using Xu Qingzhou's technology, upgrades would still be necessary, and the cost of modification might not be low.

It depends on the choice made by the person in charge; there is no absolute right or wrong.

The current situation is that their project manager doesn't want to use the technology from that side.
