Atomic Restructuring
"They tell me that Atomic Restructuring isn't alchemy. Then they tell my why it isn't alchemy. They're lying, it's alchemy."
It's Not Alchemy
Picopressors
Subatomic gravity streams, generated by exotic matter reactors, create localized distortions in the spacetime continuum. These distortions produce picopressors, which are focused beams of gravitational energy capable of interacting with atomic nuclei.
Proton Manipulation
By carefully calibrating the picopressors, scientists can selectively remove or add protons from an atom's nucleus. This process exploits the strong nuclear force, allowing for precise control over proton addition/removal.
Electron Stream Balancing
Following proton manipulation, an electron stream is applied to the atom. This stream, generated by advanced particle accelerators, bathes the atom in a controlled flux of electrons. The electrons rebalance the atom's charge, ensuring stability and preventing radioactive decay.
Atomic restructuring
The combined effect of proton manipulation and electron stream balancing enables the transformation of one element into another. Removing protons is energetically more favorable than adding them, making materials with larger atomic structures (more protons) generally more valuable.
Considerations
Energy requirements: AR processes demand significant energy.
Stability and safety: Manipulating atomic structures poses risks of radioactive decay, unstable isotopes, or unforeseen reactions. Working an atomic restructuring plant is a dangerous job.
Quantum fluctuations: Subatomic interactions may introduce random variations, affecting the accuracy and reliability of AR processes.
Energy storage: Atomic restructuring facilitates the development of advanced energy storage solutions, specifically Quantum-Matrix Battery.
It's Basically Alchemy
Atomic Restructuring is a way to change one material into another by rearranging its tiny building blocks, called atoms.
Think of atoms like toy bricks. Each toy brick has a certain number of "studs" (protons) that connect it to other bricks. By using special tools (picopressors), scientists can remove or add studs to the toy brick, effectively changing its shape and what it's made of.
But, just like toy bricks need to be connected in a specific way to make a stable structure, atoms need to have the right number of "electrons" ( tiny particles that orbit the atom) to be stable. So, after changing the studs, scientists use a special "glue" (electron stream) to make sure the atom is stable and doesn't fall apart.
Removing studs (protons) is easier than adding new ones, which is why materials with more studs (like precious metals) are often more valuable.
This technology allows scientists to transform one material into another, like turning lead into gold (not literally, but you get the idea!). It's like a super-advanced form of recycling, where they can take something old and turn it into something new and useful.
Hence, it is therefore possible to shave 3 protons off a lead atom and turn it into a gold atom.
Sweet Magicky Science
The process of Atomic Restructuring allows even extremely rare elements to be used in bulk. The process isn't exactly fast, and mining is still generally a more efficient and valuable use of time, but scarcity is now an economic issue rather than a strategic or decisive one.
Further, it allows for exotic materials that can't be mined anywhere, such as Molecular-Ceramic Blade Technology, and Carbexene. Atomic Restructuring, more than any other technology, fuels the Pan-Solar Consortium's industrial might.
