美国科学家研发出一项新的通信技术,利用中微子束发送信息,所发送的信息能够直接穿过地球或者其他行星。这项技术不仅允许潜艇在海洋深处潜伏时进行远距离通信,同时也有助于与其他星球上的生命取得联系。研究过程中,科学家将信息编码成中微子束而后发射并穿过240米厚的岩石。第一条使用这项技术发送的信息非常简单,就是“中微子”。这项通信技术虽然先进,但也存在缺陷,目前唯一具备发射这种中微子束能力的设备就只有一台2.5英里长的粒子加速器。接收装置是一台巨大的地下粒子探测器,重达数吨。如果将这
American scientists have developed a new communications technology that utilizes neutrino beams to send information that can travel directly across the Earth or other planets. This technology not only allows submarines to communicate long distances while lurking deep in the ocean, but also helps to connect life on other planets. During the course of the study, scientists encoded the information as neutrino beams and then launched it across the 240-meter-thick rock. The first message sent using this technique is very simple: “neutrino”. This advanced communication technology, however, is also flawed. The only equipment currently capable of emitting such neutrino beams is a 2.5-mile particle accelerator. The receiving device is a huge underground particle detector weighing several tons. If this will be
