Thinking of this, Andrew finally decided to talk to Duke.

"Duke, come to my office." Andrew called Duke's office.[]

"Okay, professor." Duke was very surprised when he suddenly received a call from Professor Andrew.

You should know that doctoral research is often the leading role. Most of the research is done by the doctor himself. If a professor has time to discuss it when he encounters problems in the research, he is already very responsible. Most of the time, he doesn’t meet the professor several times a year.

Since the start of school, Duke and Andrew have talked several times, so after receiving a call from Professor Andrew, Duke was a little flattered.

"Well, Duke, I'm here to find you today, mainly to talk about your topic." Andrew said straight to the point. People who do research really don't have so many polite words.

"Okay, professor, that's what I think about the research topic..." Duke didn't go around any circle and just talked about his own ideas.

"Well, the idea is good. I have also studied the formation of natural nuclear reactors for a while. In the past research and formation mechanism, researchers noticed that after the concentration of soluble uranium of natural uranium reaches 10%, the nuclear reaction can be started under certain conditions. However, in our experiments, through simulation, we know that this is not the case. This condition alone cannot start the reaction, and some other conditions must be needed in the middle."

"In this natural nuclear reaction, if there is no buffer, it will cause a nuclear explosion to a certain extent, but in fact, the natural nuclear reactor does not explode, so there must be something that can make this reaction in a dynamic equilibrium. Most researchers now believe that natural nuclear reactors are adjusted through water.

When the nuclear reaction speed is too fast, huge energy will be generated due to fission, resulting in a sharp rise in temperature (most researchers believe that the temperature of a natural nuclear reactor should be between 200-400c). Under this temperature condition, water will be vaporized, and the neutrons generated by fission will collide with water molecules and slow down, which will cause the reaction to slow down, which will lead to a decrease in the temperature, and the water vapor condenses into liquid, reducing the absorption of neutrons, so the nuclear reaction begins to accelerate again.

In this way, water acts as a buffer for the nuclear reaction, and in a stable self-regulation manner, the natural nuclear chain reaction can continue.

But in fact, no researcher was able to re-revise the process in simulation experiments. So this process is also flawed. I think water should be just a vehicle substance here, not a real buffer.

But the age is long, and this real buffer is probably gone with time. Therefore, to solve the mystery of natural nuclear reactors, the initial natural uranium nuclear reaction start-up conditions and buffers should be the key to research.”

These two are of course the key, Duke thought in his heart that these are basically the two most important parts of a natural nuclear reactor. Professor Andrew thought he really had some research in this area, not a general idea.

This is a real researcher who can achieve success and achieve success without any luck. Thinking of this, Duke suddenly felt that he might be able to reduce the process of "discovery", with the prerequisite that he could use clever prompts to trigger Andrew's thinking, and in some aspects, he could use Professor Andrew's knowledge and experience to complete this "discovery".

But in this way, this major research result will be divided into part. When the results are produced, if some of Professor Andrew's ideas are used, they will naturally be mentioned in the reports and papers in the future and cannot be ignored. This is a basic attitude of a researcher.

Just divide it out. Duke thought that he would never just contribute results in this aspect in the future. It is really not a problem that the results of this natural nuclear reactor are more, one person less.

"Professor, look, this is what I think. First of all, I think..." Duke began to inspire Andrew's thoughts in a tempting way. His idea was already very close to the truth. Even if Andrew couldn't think of it for a while today, as long as Andrew calmed down and thought about this issue carefully, he would sooner or later come up with a constructive view.

As long as Andrew's suggestion is in the right direction, Duke can take the opportunity to move forward. If he can achieve results under the guidance of a top expert like Andrew, Duke's great discovery will not appear too abrupt. This extremely important discovery, if Duke insists on co-signing Professor Andrew's name, and the previous Andrew's suggestions are indeed of great value, Professor Andrew will never mind.

Sure enough, Andrew was inspired by Duke's idea. As an expert who has been studying nuclear reaction for many years, his knowledge on nuclear reactions is far from what Duke can compare with now. Even if Kerry's knowledge base is not an opponent, Duke is just holding some real conclusions and is better than Professor Andrew in terms of grasping direction.

Just like a modern high school student who has studied gravity, if Newton, who was hit by an apple for the first time, began to explore the issue of gravity, although there is no concept of the derivation in the middle, he could suggest to Newton that the apple fell because it was affected by gravity. Once this correct direction is accepted by Newton, Newton will gradually extend gravity, and finally deduce the law of gravity through complex mathematical operations.

Professor Andrew is in this state now, so following Duke's inspiration, his thinking has indeed taken a step forward on the right path. Although Professor Andrew does not know this now, a selfish professor may hide this idea and study it yourself.

Then Duke can guarantee that although Professor Andrew has embarked on the right path, if he really wants to go from this path to the end, there are still countless forked paths in the middle that he needs to go through one by one. Without more than ten years of hard work, it is impossible to have the luck to find the final result.

So Duke was not afraid that this result would be intercepted halfway. Over such a long time, he could speed up his progress at any time to "discover" this result that was originally his.

Fortunately, Professor Andrew is not that kind of villain. When he gained something under Duke's inspiration, he quickly expressed this new idea. Of course, this new idea happened to be what Duke needed. So Duke pretended to think about it for a while, and then thanked Professor Andrew very happily for his guidance.

With Andrew's guidance, Duke can further revise his experimental plan and simulate and test this new idea. Although this is not enough and still cannot meet the conditions for success, the experimental results will prove that this path is correct. It is enough for Duke to be able to create this thing now.

The progress has been amazing. You should know that many people who are studying this area have been wandering around in the same place for many years.
