This article examines how 'safety case' experts working on Finland’s nuclear waste repository project at Olkiluoto summoned, conjured, or channeled memories of Seppo—a deceased colleague whose ‘specter,’ as some put it, still ‘haunts’... more
Activity concentrations of 238 U, 232 Th and 40 K in raw and waste petroleum materials (Egypt and Kuwait) were measured using gamma ray spectrometer. The average values of 226 Ra, 232 Th and 40 K were 21.1 ± 3.2, 7.6 ± 1.3 and 88.4 ± 8.2... more
Over time a few physicists have held out hope and suggested that the elusive (sterile) neutrino might actually be a disguised tachyon and could be the key to unraveling some of the universe's best-kept secrets. The tachyon ... a... more
The general review of cross section formulas for the photoelectric effect, Compton scattering, pair and triplet production is presented in the intermediate and high photon energy spectrum for carbon (Z=6). Using the classical Gaussian... more
An interpretation of the Lorentz transformation strongly suggests that space is a compressible fluid capable of hosting the virtual mass component of a relativistic particle. This in turn suggests that virtual mass is a measure of the... more
Eighty years have passed since atomic spectroscopy was used to discover deuterium, or “heavy hydrogen.” The element played a transformational role in the development of nuclear energy and isotope chemistry. Currently, it is helping... more

This brief paper is to explain one of my ideas relating to deep space propulsion. This paper explains what I call the "Nuclear Thermal Pulsejet Engine" and how we can use vacuum of space to cool a small nuclear reactor down for future... more
Elastic scattering of nucleons off nuclei is an important tool in learning about distributions of nucleons, protons and neutrons, within nuclei. Experimentally, differential cross sections are measured as a function of scattering angle... more
The health hazards of the radioactive gas radon on general public are well known. In this paper, I studied the concentration of radon gas in some imported cosmetics samples in order to understand the level and distribution of Rn-222... more
Ce cahier de l'association "Rennes en Sciences" N°2 a été rédigé par le physicien Gabriel GORRE. Il décrit en détail l'histoire de l'invention de la chambre en brouillard et présente le modèle qu'il a réalisé et les résultats obtenus.... more
This work is about accelerators in the field of security and defense applications.
Via decrement of mass of planets, we can send the entire planets to far space orbital allocations. We can convert physical matter into energy, it can either get irradiated to outer space, get transmitted back to Earth's potential energy,... more
Berisi tentang sistem pendingin reaktor nuklir dengan sensor suhu dan kecepatan aliran
The purpose of the following study is to build up a nucleus model – based on the symmetries of atomic shell – where the density of nucleons is constant. And which gives enough space for zero point quantum motion in a way that the... more
A superluminal quantum-vortex model of the electron and the positron is produced from a superluminal double-helix model of the photon during electron-positron pair production. The two oppositely-charged (with Q = ±e sqrt (2/α) = 16.6e)... more
Do Black Holes possess the ability to reverse the thermodynamic second law
Many different reactor systems have been proposed and some of these have been developed to prototype and commercial scale. Six types of reactor (Magnox, AGR, PWR, BWR, CANDU and RBMK) have emerged as the designs used to produce commercial... more
What happened, in the years leading up to Valentine's Day 2014, that made a canister of nuclear waste burst open and spew out fire underground at a US facility for the long-term disposal of radioactive military waste? According to one... more
"These two supporting books are prepared for Higher Secondary level physics students. Every year more than 50,000 students are enrolled in Science stream in High-School in Nepal. The aim of these two supporting books is to aid them a... more
This Impact Report identifies and summarises the diverse impacts, resulting from the £500m of UK funding of Science and Technology in 2013, using numerous quantitative metrics and short case study extracts. It shows how the varied... more
Appunti personali, organizzati e commentati, del corso di "Fisica Nucleare e Subnucleare" tenuto dai Professori L. Fortunato e F. Simonetto all'Università di Padova, a.a. 2019-2020.
A theoretical analysis of the Sjöstrand method of reactivity measurement is presented. The analysis is based on the general transport equations. Only approximations of minor influence on the validity of the obtained equation for... more
The Contamination caused by heavy metals in the environment has attracted global attention owing to its abundance, persistence and environmental toxicity. Both natural and anthropogenic activities are responsible for the abundant of heavy... more
Niebotyczne koszty cywilnej energetyki jądrowej nie powinny odżegnywać od inwestycji w bloki jądrowe w Polce. Kluczem do ich zrealizowania może być skorzystanie z dodatkowych, nieoczywistych źródeł finansowania. Największą ciekawostką... more
Universe is made up of God Particles or Basic Building Blocks ( Fig -1) or mind and mass . To Understand life ( new definition ) we have to understand sleeping and arousal phenomenon in living animals , plants and seed , molecules ,... more
A closer look at recently declassified Soviet and American government documents from the period reveals that it was the Chernobyl disaster that intensified four volatile reforms: increased concern for citizen welfare, glasnost,... more
General overview of the mathematics used to derive the electron model in "New Physics Framework", which was recently uploaded.
In the first decades of space exploration several concepts appeared for utilizing nuclear energy in space. However, only a few of them were developed into actual instruments. Radioisotope powered batteries and heating units have been... more
Resumen En un estudio estadistico se considéra un conjunto, llamado poblacion, de elementos, que se denominan individuos, de los cuales se estudia un aspecto determinado, que se denomina caracter y tambien variable estadistica o... more
The identification of the magic number of six provides an avenue to investigate the origin of spin–orbit splittings in atomic nuclei. [25] Now, physicists are working toward getting their first CT scans of the inner workings of the... more
