I More info on HT/HD shielding constants?

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the measurement and calculation of shielding constants for Hydrogen, Tritium, and Deuterium. Participants speculate that these constants may be determined through scattering experiments involving these isotopes. A suggestion is made to consult specific sources for detailed information on shielding differences. Links to relevant research articles are provided for further exploration. Understanding these constants is crucial for applications in nuclear physics and materials science.

TL;DR
I was wondering how they measured or calculated these differences?
I dont know what they refer to, but assume theyre scattering Hydrogen with Tritium or Deuterium to measure the difference of something.

Thread 'C.N. Yang dies at age 103'

Theoretical physicist C.N. Yang died at the age of 103 years on October 18, 2025. He is the Yang in Yang-Mills theory, which he and his collaborators devised in 1953, which is a generic quantum field theory that is used by scientists to study amplitudes (i.e. vector probabilities) that are foundational in all Standard Model processes and most quantum gravity theories. He also won a Nobel prize in 1957 for his work on CP violation. (I didn't see the post in General Discussions at PF on his...
