Chapter 5: Trance
As though he went into a trance, he started mumbling words unheard and the knowledge of how he would make an arc reactor popped into his head, following that he stood up and went to his translator friend and asked his name which the man replied was Yinsen.
He then told him he was going to comply with their demands and listed out materials he needed for the Jericho missile which Yinsen concurred and reached out to the Arabs to inform them of his decision and requirements.
Soon after work began, and he had no other choice but to turn his cave into a workshop starting from bringing in the missiles carefully to the workshop and then dismantling them to take out the required materials from them.
Among the required materials was palladium, exactly zero point five grams per missile and he needed six grams which gave rise to dismantling even more missiles, next was making the tokamak to confine plasma where
hydrogen atoms can fuse.
Getting the two hydrogen atoms were easy nevertheless, the deuterium was gotten from sea water as every one in six thousand five hundred hydrogen atoms in sea water is deuterium and it can be extracted through electrolysis which he did.
And as for the second hydrogen atom tritium, it was a rare natural element and radioactive in nature with a half-life of about twelve and a half years but could be artificially gotten by using superconducting coils to generate a strong magnetic field that confined a plasma of deuterium and tritium inside the tokamak, the fusion of hydrogen nuclei released a lot of energy and neutrons, which reacted with lithium in special rods to create more tritium.
The next step was to add palladium as a catalyst, because although palladium was toxic in nature, it had an ability to absorb hydrogen atoms on the surface and facilitate their fusion with other hydrogen atoms.
Palladium was known for its high melting point and a low affinity for sulphur which makes it suitable for high temperature and low poisoning conditions.
For the finishing touch after assembling all the parts of the arc reactor, was to now power it with the car battery that was attached to my chest and watch it light up.
Yinsen saw this and approached me saying.
''That doesn't look like a Jericho missile'' he said putting back his glasses from the bridge of his nose onto his eyes firmly''.
Like falling out of a trance, I looked at the arc reactor I made in awe and spoke.
''that's because it isn't … it's a miniaturized arc reactor, I got insight from remembering the one at the stark factory…''
''…It could keep the shrapnel out of my heart''.
''But what could it generate?'' Yinsen asked.
"If my calculation is correct, it could generate three giga joules per second''.
''That could run your heart for fifty lifetimes''.
''Or something big for fifteen minutes''
Going up to a table with Yinsen laid plans mapped out but not in understanding to anyone, anyone but Tony, after rearranging the plans in a particular format and shedding light on it, a structure of an armoured looking person laid out like a robot and rigid
exoskeleton.
