The discussion focuses on developing an MCNP geometry for calculating the percent depth dose in ionization chambers. Participants inquire about the progress made and whether the project is related to academic work. There is an emphasis on sharing experiences and techniques used in similar MCNP projects. The conversation aims to gather insights and resources to assist in the geometry development. Overall, the thread seeks collaborative input to enhance the understanding of MCNP applications in radiation dosimetry.
My question is about the following graph:
I keep on reading that fusing atoms up until Fe-56 doesn’t cost energy and only releases binding energy. However, I understood that fusing atoms also require energy to overcome the positive charges of the protons. Where does that energy go after fusion? Does it go into the mass of the newly fused atom, escape as heat or is the released binding energy shown in the graph actually the net energy after subtracting the required fusion energy?
I...
