Hello, my name is Alexander Radchik and I have always wanted to be an atomic play boy. Given the lack of easily obtainable fissile material I have had humble myself to the theoretical use bombs for things that make sense. Regarding my query, I have 2 questions. 1) could a reusable nuclear...

I can just see the bottom, where the sample holders go, there are no signs of break, but there could be a crack at the top somewhere. only way i can check it still has vacuum, is to fill it with n2 or ice and see how long it lasts? Sorry about my onomatopoeia

I have an old dewar flask i found on clean up day, i was wondering, when i shake it, i hear a strange clinging noise inside, what could it be? (its the type used for bio samples)

100mbq tc 99 requires how much mo 99? Answer in number of atoms, assume equilibrium conditions: 67/6.4 *1x10^8 = 1 x10^9

also what do the symbols E, E, I, I, mean, (just under each table) and the red text for 414kev, 666.1kev and 694.8 kev energy thank you + energy

sorry, i meant Sb126m->Te126 decay, i read my post and see i didn't emphasize sb126m->Te126, i think the table and diagram for Sb126m are on p4 and Sb126 on page 5-6

i am looking at the decay scheme of Sn126 > Sb 126 > Te126 and would like to know how many gamma rays Sb126 throws out on average and see if I've understood the diagram correctly;- Sn128 -> decays to (126m-Sb) 19.5min half life, where 14% decays through IT with 17.7 kev gamma and then 12.46 day...
