[Awesome] Zzzzzz Machine

It's Candian.

It's Caindan newbles.

Actually, it can be either Candan or Candian. It's like spelling arse and ass. They're the same thing.

The practical applications for the Z machine?

Last year, when physicists placed a capsule of deuterium, or heavy hydrogen, at the focus of the z-pinch, they detected neutrons flying out from the implosion site ? a signal that fusion reactions were taking place, as they do in the sun.

If researchers can learn to tame these fusion reactions, the setup can rely on a seemingly endless supply of deuterium fuel in seawater.

By the way, those spidery formations under the surface aren't wires. They're electrical bolts that are shooting through the water/oil solution surrounding the machine.

Wow. Okay, that beats perfect turkey. Not by much, but that's really impressive. Could really change the world, if it works.

Deutereons FTW!

[Tobias]

Dude. Like the power of the sun? Not cool. Have you ever seen Spiderman II? I for one am anti-Doc Ock

[Hellfighter 17]

Clearly it's exactly the same thing.

[Tobias]

Clearly I am not omitting obvious flaws in my logic for humorous purposes.

[Bra]

Pfffffffffft.

Nukes still produce waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more of an effect than this machine. If you want something to be afraid of, make it some lunatic country with nuclear/hydrogen weapons.

*coughnorthkoreacough*

More to the point, that's fuckin' hardcore. Might just prevent the forecasted energy crises.

[Tobias]

Dude. Doc Ock has four robotic arms. Four. Get your pansy ass nuclear arms outta here.

I hope you know the large hadron accelerator can create temperatues upwards of about 2 quatillion degree Kelvin (essentially the same as Celsius at this temperate and equivalent to 4 quatillion in Fahrenheit).

Oh, and the core of the sun is a mere ten million degrees Kelvin hot, not hard to beat.

[Tobias]

Has someone actually done it or is that theoretical. Cause then the artical lied when it said they set the record. bullshit... quatillion *snort*

[Hellfighter 17]

*sigh* They will in 2007. =/ For controlled conditions yours probably wins by a couple hundred million degrees.

[Tobias]

1.21 jiggawatts?! Where are we going to get 1.21 jiggawatts?

[Hellfighter 17]

Iunno. A particle that was going at almost the speed of light and was over a quintillion degrees Kelvin was only fifty joules. So, how long are we talking?

[Tobias]

About 7.213 exameters give or take a milliard.

[Hellfighter 17]

=(

Well, if you want 1.2 jiggawatts (I am assuming that is a gigawatt), the particles will have to only be used for 0.000 05 seconds.

[Tobias]

dudez0rz I'm pulling stuff from my ass. I have no Idea whats going on. Jigawatts is a reference to the mispronunciation of gigawatts in Back to the Future. 1.21 is needed to get that flux compactor hummin'.

edit: Should be Jigowatt actually, now that I think back.

[Hellfighter 17]

I know. Doc Brown dealt with some terrorists and screwed them over, thus Marty must depend on lightning to get him back to the future!
