The first part of this years E3(Eurydian Engineering Exposition) Expo is showing off the latest Eurydian invention, the Instant Transmission System. All information taken from Dr. Outov's extensive research and eventual creation of this system.


Chapter 1) Chaotic Matter creation

The Eurydian Republic’s main computer is based on a three-mainframe construction connected by an Instantaneous Transmission System, or (ITS). Without this system none of the computer main frames or the various Eurydian fleets could stay in contact. With over 20 years of development, the ITS is one of the most sophisticated communication devices in the universe. Each ship as well as the mainframe is equipped with an ITS system.

The Eurydian Republic chaotic matter supply to be used in the ITS is created in a zero gravity environment close to an asteroid belt. A space station specially designed gathers these asteroids and turns them into a slurry of iron and cobalt. The process begins by turning asteroids into their base substances. The slurry is then injected at 100 million metric tons per hour into the Ionizing Chamber. Using specially tuned lasers and electric fields the atoms electrons are accelerated off, leaving only protons and neutrons. This plasma is compressed with super conducting magnets to a density of 10^27 particles per cm^3, roughly the density of a solar core. Electrons are then injected at 100,000 electron volts at a radial direction causing inverse beta decay.

Inverse Beta Decay, the transformation of protons and electrons into neutrons, causes a breakdown of the repulsive force of the nucleus. (this creates a plasma of neutrons held by containment lasers.) Therefore, an extreme neutron density is achieved, equaling 100 trillion grams per square centimeter. Due to the immense weight this procedure is performed in a zero gravity environment. The end result of ionizing and inverting the nuclear structure of 70-100 50-mile asteroids is a cubic centimeter of highly dense neutrons.

The neutronium is cooled to a temperature of .001K degrees above absolute zero. This creates Boise-Einstein Condensation. Therefore, the neutron mass behaves as one single particle. After that it can be broken into smaller pieces and set in different starships, thus creating the ITS.



Chapter 2) How it works an what it does

All of the Eurydian capitol ships are connected using the ITS. By using the ITS every processor can connect to every other processor simultaneously with a theoretical data transfer rate of infinite bit per sec. The actual system uses gamma ray transmission to compress the data. This usage of gamma rays allows for compression of up to 40 trillion terabytes. Sapphire mirrors then direct the data stream into a chamber holding the super imposed chaotic particle. The particle is kept at a millionth of a degree above zero to create and maintain Boise-Einstein Condensation. From there, quantum fluctuations connect the chaotic particle to any other chaotic that was broken off from the original. Theory states that if a single chaotic particle is broken apart into smaller pieces, it will still act as one particle. So if you do something to one part of the particles in one ships ITS, the same exact thing will happen to the other particles on the other ships, even across the universe. Also a transmission cannot be detected when sent, nor can communications be jammed, for the technology works on the quantum level.

Being that the particle must be heavily shielded from any observation or interaction with our universe, and to insure that the particle does not collapse, it itself is shielded with highly powerful Gravimetric fields. Incredibly tiny cooling lasers are the only things allowed in, as well as the gamma ray transmission. If one fragment of a solar ray, or one stray particle were to hit the chaotic particle of a given ship, the chaotic particle would break apart. Luckily the shielding used gives a ratio of 10^10/1 chance of that happeneing. If this happens, the ship must return to Eurydice and a new piece of the original chaotic particle must be reinserted into the ITS system. Anyways, the gamma rays transmitting all the data hits the chaotic particle. This causes instantaneous transmission followed by the immediate collapse of the chaotic particle. As soon as the chaotic particle is destroyed it is cooled and rebuilt in 10^-20th seconds. Therefore, data transmissions from a certain ship can be sent at a pulse rate of 40 trillion terabytes per10^-20 seconds.

Chapter 2 part 2) in depth on the shielding and cooling lasers

Because of the instability of the chaotic particle group, they must be heavily shielded from any source of electromagnetic radiation or of any other massive particles. Because of the clean environment that must be maintained gravimetric generators are placed within 3 inches of the cooling chamber to create a perfectly clean environment devoid of any disturbances. When the write beam is sent to the cooling chamber for transmission, the gravimetric shields are phased to the same frequency of the laser allowing for the beam to enter and traverse the network. For security of the Eurydian Republic, the gravimetric generator’s frequencies are guarded with up most security and are changed every two minutes. It is of the most importance to keep the cooling chamber completely void of any anomalies or the entire mass of chaotic particles can be destroyed causing complete disconnection from the main web of communication.

To maintain a stable chaotic particle one must keep the neutrons at a cool temperature of – 426.999 degrees. This is done with a set of 24 cooling lasers. Each cooling laser is responsible for knocking hot neutrons to lower temperatures. The lasers are activated at all times and can reclaim an entire mass of chaotic particles in 10-20 seconds. This means fast reconstruction after initially being destroyed by the write or read beam.

End

As you can see... interesting stuff. Up next... who knows!

(OOC: I'm sure this will bore most people. But just so you know... unless you have my permission you may not copy this technology in its entirity. It is fine to take tidbits for your own use... but not the whole thing. If someone is already using this technology... then keep on using... its fine by me. *waits for first cry of godmoding*)

Feel free to give input.

...this is not a bump.

Very interesting technology 8) (This technology is obviously future tech). Two questions though, first, how does it direct the information to where it is going, so it just doesn't fly to infinity. Does the information travel so fast it just goes in one straight course or does it use some sort of gravitational force(s) to direct it. Second, how many asteriods does this the system consume, granted that you wouldn't want to deplete your asteriod belt.

(OOC: My nation might not be future tech, but I have seen enough Star Trek episodes to know some of it. :lol: )

Well... to answer your questions.

1. It works on the Quantum level, therefore it doesnt really travel anywhere. Since the various chaotic particles are all basically one single particle, everything that happens to one part... happens to all the other parts at the exact same time. Because of this there is a specific code for every ship and the Eurydian Supercomputer so that only the ship that you want to recieve the information actually detects and processes the information.

2. Well... all you really need to do is gather enough matter to have trillions upon trillions of atoms. We used asteriods because they are abundent in our solar system. I would say roughly 75 50 mile wide asteroids would produce enough matter. You then have to be able to process and turn the atoms into neutrons, and compress it into a very small area.
