Today, the contaminated water problem at Fukushima is challenging the field of science.
Fukushima has been pumping in 180 tons of water daily for 12 years to cool the reactor core damaged by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, but the IAEA and the global scientific community have not figured out how to stop this endless flow. In this context, the Japanese government argues for the release of contaminated water into the sea under the logic that the contaminated cooling water accumulated since 2011 after the explosion of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant has already reached about 1.3 million tons, and that there is no space to store the huge amount to be extracted in the future, while it is impossible to keep it in tanks forever.
And yet the scientific community has not provided any fundamental solutions, simply predicting that it will take at least 20 more years to reach a cold shutdown state, which would completely close down the plant, and continues to debate the risks of discharging the spent water into the ocean and whether it should be labeled as "contaminated" or "treated" water. The scientific community should not allow such tedious discussions about the Fukushima nuclear power plant to be repeated endlessly for 20 years.
Instead, we need to find a way to fundamentally and quickly stop the explosions that are caused by the decay heat of the nuclear fuel rods. Of course, it is understood that this is almost impossible at the current state of science and technology. But it is possible to find a solution if we change the paradigm. That is, we should look back and think about the issue of nuclear stability and instability instead of relying solely on cooling water as a way to prevent an explosion at Fukushima.
The understanding of nuclear stability began with the understanding of the stability of the hydrogen atom after Thompson's Atomic Model in 1903. The scientific community began to ask the question of why the hydrogen atom exists in a form that maintains stability. For example, a top that spins in a normal way should lose its momentum and fall after a certain amount of time.
Similarly, if an atom had momentum, it should fall like a spinning top after a certain period of time, but this did not happen. In 1913, the Danish theoretical physicist Niels Bohr interpreted the structure of the hydrogen atom in terms of quanta in the first part of his paper "On the Structure of Atoms and Molecules." This interpretation was the beginning of the era of quantum mechanics and Bohr's emergence as a quantum legend.
Since Henri Becquerel discovered the radiation emitted by uranium salts in 1896, nuclear physics began to focus on the nucleus, a component of the atom, and the radiation emitted by the nucleus, rather than nuclear physics. This approach led to the development of the world's first nuclear reactor, the Chicago Pile-1, by Enrico Fermi, known as the architect of the atomic bomb and the nuclear age. He found that nuclear fission occurs, creating new radioactive elements, when neutrons slowly approach and collide with the nuclei of thorium and uranium.
However, in contrast to Niels Bohr, Fermi's nuclear reaction ushered in the era of nuclear instability, not of nuclear stability. For this reason, no nuclear physicist is able to offer a method of nuclear stabilization that is based solely on the legacy of Fermi. This is why a major shift in thinking beyond the paradigm of post-Fermi nuclear physics is in order. This shift is possible through a broadening of the horizon of fundamental thinking about nuclear stability.
The stability of the nucleus can be compared to the way amniotic fluid surrounds the fetus in the womb of a pregnant woman. Just as the fetus is surrounded by amniotic fluid, the nucleus is surrounded by the space energy that fills atomic space. Part of the space energy of the atom is transferred into energy for the formation of the nucleus according to the law E=mc2, and the rest surrounds the nucleus in the form of atomic space. If we can see from this analogy that the space of an atom plays a positive role, we can understand how space energy can contribute to the stabilization process of the unstable nuclear fuel in the core of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
In fact, space energy imparts and regulates energy that stabilizes unstable nuclei during the process of nuclear growth and birth, just as amniotic fluid affects the growth and birth of a fetus. This is because the stability of the nucleus is highly dependent on the action of space energy as well as the nucleus itself. Just as increased amniotic fluid pressure caused by uterine contractions induces birth, the magnetic contractile function of space energy causes an unstable nucleus to become stable. Of course, a deeper understanding of space energy must extend to the question of what is the energy of contraction, along with the understanding that the Big Bang, the singularity of the birth of the universe, was only possible if it was preceded by a contraction process of energy.
But the current scientific community still hasn't accepted the fundamental question and understanding of space energy. And the process of converting an unstable nucleus into a stable nucleus depends on the natural time of half-life, or is understood only in terms of the action of particles called quantum tunneling. Therefore, in order to prevent the explosion of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, they are only setting out a plan on how to pour cooling water for more than 20 years. In conclusion, space energy is not being used because it has not yet been properly captured in the eyes of science, as seen in areas such as the existence of dark matter or dark energy.
However, the author has already perfected a system that enables the induction and utilization of space energy, even though the space energy that was born with the Big Bang did not reveal itself like a lightning bolt hidden in the clouds. Therefore, through this page, the author proposes to all the leaders and scientists of the world to further open up the "Righteous New Nuclear Age" along with its application.
