Its weird. Whenever I ask a question on a physics forum I always get two or three obsessive compulsives that don't understand what’s going on answering a question I didn't ask before someone comes along with something intelligent.

As I understand it, if you were to inject lots of dark energy into the molten core of a planet, the planet would inflate like a bubble over time until the forces of dark energy and gravity were in balance or until the bubble popped. If you were to inject dark energy into the interior of a black...

You asked for a source for the numbers. It was http://nrv.jinr.ru/nrv/webnrv/fusion/ but I have since closed the window. If I figure out which isotopes it was I'll let you know. Was there something interesting in there? You asked why I care, I was told that mercury and some other element (or...

Thanks! Everything you said was completely new to me. I only learned last week that fusion produces more energy for lighter elements than for heavier. That first article looks very interesting but too pricey for me. Those other tables were very informative.

Using http://nrv.jinr.ru/nrv/webnrv/fusion/ I tried mercury 202 and gd 154 it said "Coulomb barrier was not found" Did I do something wrong or does it just not have data or . . .? I tried doing 2H and 6Li, but it wanted deformation numbers, but when I clicked the button there were not any...

Thanks! I was able to find a few PDFs that look like they will be very educational. Which of these is the optimal energy for the reaction? VCB(spherical) = 76.461 MeV RCB = 11.588 fm hω = 4.68 MeV Lcr = 61 Ecr = 119.0 MeV two limit orientations: V1B(nose-to-nose) = 76.81 MeV hω1 = 2.30 MeV...

Is there a website that would educate me more on the subject?

Thanks. I'm new at this. I'm a comp sci graduate without much physics training. I looked at the websites but I'm a bit slow to figure it out. I was looking for something that would let me enter something like: hg202, ga69, 11 million electron volts and it would spit back something like: 20%...

Is there a book or database that lists all (or many) pairs of isotopes along with the energy at which they have the higest probability of fusion and what that probability is? Or is there a program that uses models to make a guess given a pair? Or a formula I could use to make the guess myself...
