Don't know if this is even the right place for this, but reading Popular Science? i think... anyway, they mentioned the fact that if you bombard Hafnium 178 with x-ray radiation, you get about a 50-60 fold return in gamma radiation. I don't know where to classify that...nuclear reaction? but it seems to me that you could use it pretty much anywhere. even in a modified internal combustion engine, where you'd simply put water that has hafnium ions in it into the piston, hit it with x-rays, get your gamma ray production, causing steam to force your piston up and then venting it... have the right concentrations of hafnium, recycle your water, and it looks like you've got an engine with a good power source...maybe even replacing gasoline? i dunno. forums are for comments. Hit me! (with your comments)
