Okay, while my RP idea was a complete and utter failure, I thought that perhaps there was an idea that I'm more aquainted with that I can make a thread for that can be used for like.... forever.
And so here I place a research and development thread where one may speak of sciences of any type, but preferrably cutting edge science and theorretical sciences, such as advanced physics, quantom mechanics, or advanced engineering, as well as other sciences of the like.
Also, if you have any sort of scientific stuff that you've come up with on your own (which I know a few of you have) then feel free to tell us about that as well. I'd really love to see all of that, an I'll add some too.
Well, get to it, explore and explain all that you may!

Oh God... and 6Pack, we've got some people in this guild who are really heavy into like advanced and theoretical sciences... me being one. 3nodding But I'm going to try and get some more, especially with this being made.

And that is the exact reason why this was the worst mistake, a good mistake, but the worst by far. ESPECIALLY with my crap.

That's just cause your crap makes no goddam sense! xd Actually, I'd really love to see what you've come up with.

WEll just wait until like...Tomorrow. I might start doing all of my writing. I don't know If I will have pictures...I have a visual for the Black Vision.

Ok, where to start.... Firstly, I'd like to present some data I've been finding recently on Explosively Pumped Flux Compression Generators (or EPFCGs). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosively_pumped_flux_compression_generatorBasically, it uses the force of an explosion to push a magnetic metal rod against a wavefront and generate a ******** incredible pulse of electricity for a fraction of a second, before the entire thing is destroyed. That electricity could provide the energy for a hand-held EMP grenade or to blow a locking system of some kind - anything which would require a very strong, but very short burst of Electricity.

Okay, I just got an idea that is either incredibly brilliant or ridiculously stupid... ninja If you were not aware, after the failed attempts at creating an effective laser for combat, point-defense, or anti-missile defenses for the Star Wars program in the United States, our government has recently picked the prgect back up again. They are experimenting with two different kinds of lasers, a free electron laser (FEL) and solid state laser, both of which meeting marginal successes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_electron_laserhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_state_laserOne major problem that they are running into while developing these weapons is to have a sufficient source of energy to put into the beam, and if you were to have 'cartridges' of these EPFCGs, then could you not be able to use these generators as ammo for an energy weapon? With only 10 kilowatts of power, they were able to with a short burst (like a fraction of a second I believe, but don't quote me on that) the penetrated through 10cm of Aluminum. For reference, my house last month used 44 kilowatts a day on average. If you were to take this EPFCG however, which is reputed to generate in the terawatt range, then you could do quite a bit of damage.

If you were to take this EPFCG however, which is reputed to generate in the terawatt range, then you could do quite a bit of damage. Yeah, thats what I was thinking as well.... But be wary; it's very difficult to use the unit of watts the wrong way.... Lol, basically, watts are a measure of the rate of energy being transferred to something (1 watt is one joule of energy per second). Now, whilst I'm pretty sure an EPFCG could give you more than 10,000 joules of energy in a single burst, I'm certain that it can't give you anything close to trillions of joules.... See, the pulse lasts for a few fractions of a second, so the amount of energy transferred is singificantly less (thank god - lol, otherwise, a simple hand grenade would end up outpowering a nuclear weapon biggrin ). But that's prescisely what makes it perfect for the job - you can get a very fast pulse of incredibly intense laser light with one of these - easily enough to take out some punk-assed Missile or RPG coming your way. So you'd probably have a few sitting as spares on the side, so that you can use your normal capacitors whilst it's just raining your average RPGs and Mortar Shells and stuff, but when something bigger and nastier like a Cruise Missile comes down and you need a ******** big burst of power to take it out and you need it nice and quick, you'd just detonate an EPFCG and drain the power form that. Just don't stand next to it when it goes off, lol twisted

Okay, so you're saying that in effect, my idea won't work cause it can't give off that much energy in a harnessable form that will be sufficient for the job, and thus it'll have to stick to conventional means?

Ah, not entirely; if the Laser can cope with it, you could get one ******** strong pulse out of the thing over a very short period of time - so you could do more damage, even though strictly speaking you won't get as much energy out per burst. Short and Sharp can sometimes be more painfull than Long and Hard, don't ya know.... biggrin

OMG, what wonders of modern science will be discussed next?
I know, the wonders of nanotechnology and other related feilds. What are practical (and non-practical but cool) applications for such a thing, the practicality of such, and that kind of thing. Go.

I know it's very Bond-esque, and the concept is dated, I still thing Superguns are very, very cool stuff. Scaled down to a squad-manned weapon, truck-mounted to the tune of 50mm, (Think overgrown recoil-less rifle) it could deal some impressive firepower, not to mention intimidation, and they would be relatively simple and cheap to make.

Anghammarand I know it's very Bond-esque, and the concept is dated, I still thing Superguns are very, very cool stuff. Scaled down to a squad-manned weapon, truck-mounted to the tune of 50mm, (Think overgrown recoil-less rifle) it could deal some impressive firepower, not to mention intimidation, and they would be relatively simple and cheap to make. Um... I don't think it will be recoil-less. High muzzle velocity will probably have a strong kickback. No gun really has no recoil. It isn't possible. I mean, physically. As in, it would defy the laws of physics. Remember: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. You shoot a bullet out of a barrel, the gun is gonna kick back becuase the force exerted pushes the gun in the opposite direction. The bullet and gun both travel at the same speed, with the bullet being more deadly due to surface area. Think of it this way: If your gun had a butt that was a more needle-like shape, you would have a giant gun in your shoulder, and it would travel as a bullet does. So, according to this law, when doing algebraic problems on weapons, you need not worry about how to make the gun's force. IT will be the same!
