“Click” applies to atomic and nuclear fuels and materials — to all things, not just click chemistry The conditions for assembly have precision geometric and energy constraints, but once satisfied the pieces snap together every time. The interesting ones are those where the atomic energy stored can be released later. I have been calling

I was not familiar with Aachen University. You might want to include links to Wikipedia articles in English, German, Chinese, and other human languages for a more balanced and complete overview and history of

Freya Blekman @freyablekman #CMSPaper 1338 describes a precision measurement of the production rate of the quantum carriers of the weak force, the Z and W bosons. These measurements allow comparison and improvement of detailed understanding of the strong force in the standard model https://buff.ly/3ZaS4kI https://pic.x.com/593sfmughe Replying to @freyablekman A “standard” not shared completely on the

Zhigang Suo @zhigangsuo The Nobel Laureate T.D. Lee died recently. @yangyang_cheng wrote about Lee’s role in lifting science in China, and in bridging China and America. These magical years of 1980s! https://npr.org/2024/09/05/nx-s1-5092630/td-lee-legacy-perspective-china-physics-yangyang-cheng Replying to @zhigangsuo and @yangyang_cheng Thanks for sharing! There have been many excellent and outstanding researchers from China working in China and around

Ideal Weapon: Can Hafnium Bombs Replace Nuclear Bombs? at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHPzQrJ8D7M Suggest you use NuDat3 at BNL to see all the isotopes that can be used. You also need all the magnetic moments, which I think they will be adding. Most of the radioactive isotopes can be used for their reactions. Not just stable ones if
