Physicists


  • Template:Req - a consortium founded in the EU in 2014 on nuclear fusion research (successor of EFDA [75])
  • Template:Req - a means to count the number of observed particles in interval ranges, as in a histogram of particle energies
  • Template:Req - apparently commonly used in research in the 1930s, see this Google search
  • hydrogen-boron (H-B) fusion - perhaps see Aneutronic fusion?
  • Template:Req
  • Template:Req - a Multichannel Analyzer (MCA) is a device used to record the energy specrum of ionizing radiation. Commonly used in x-ray and gamma spectography. Whereas Geiger counters and ionization detectors will count or integrate the individual pulses from ionizing events, but they do not measure the energy of the event. An MCA will measure the energy of photons or particles from a radiation source. A typical source of radiation will emit different types of particles and particles of different energy. The energy is not uniformly distributed. The energy usually falls into specific levels depending on the source. The spectrum of energy levels can be used to identify the source.
  • Template:Req - may be closely related to Stable nuclide, but some elements do have very slowly decaying natural isotopes, e. g. potassium-40, carbon-14 and uranium; there is also an article environmental isotopes
  • Template:Req - Calculations of energy released from all types of nuclear reactions (fission, fusion, capture, decay). Part of Nuclear reaction. Uses Nuclear binding energy as the theoretical basis and describes how it is applied in multiple reactions and species. Consolidation from Decay heat, Decay energy, Nuclear reaction#Energy Conservation, and Nuclear fission#Energetics. Finally, discuss the measurements and simulation of complicated models. This article should not discuss practical aspects of harvesting or removing heat from reactions. see "Fundamentals of Nuclear Science and Engineering" (PDF).
  • Template:Req - Would be nice for people to explain it, and whether it would be theoretically possible or even efficient; Seems it might just be an imaginary tale of Hollywood
  • Template:Req - There is some info linked at gamma source, but it's not what I am talking about. Need info about Cobalt-60 and other typical sources, measured in Curies, sometime called a camera. They are enclosed in lead and usually have a "window" to direct at a target. They may be used for calibration, medical reasons, etc. I like to saw logs! (talk) 05:11, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Template:Req
  • Template:Req - some of Nuclear magnetic moment may be intimidating, but there are many links from there
  • Template:Req - a molecular form of deuterium used in cold fusion reactors (currently redirect to Deuterium)
  • Template:Req - the first portable nuclear reactor, used near Thule Air Base, Greenland for Project Iceworm from 1960 to 1966 by the Army Nuclear Power Program - see this picture (currently redirect)
  • Introduction to Radioactivity (or Introduction to Radioactive Decay) as the article can be complicated for some people.  ·
  • Template:Req - There is some info linked at gamma source, but it's not what I am talking about. Same as a nuclear source I like to saw logs! (talk) 05:11, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Template:Req
  • Template:Req
  • Template:Req - see "'Reactorsaurus' to rip up station". BBC.
A result in Quantum Electrodynamics by which the expectation value of any odd number of currents vanishes. There is a brief article on Prof. Furry, as well as a brief description of the theorem I found from a reputible source.
