NuDat 3.0 has a beautiful table of the isotopes, Unique Isotope Identifier, Nuclear polymers, magnetic nuclear bound states

Note on 9 Aug 2023: “Atomic Fuels” and “Extended Nuclear Materials” At https://www-nds.iaea.org/relnsd/NdsEnsdf/masschain.html there are beta and electron capture chains that allow converting “nuclear” isotopes by using electromagnetic reactions. Electron density or positron density is easier to control than neutrons still. But with magnetic techniques, BOTH the old fission and new fusion are just part

Richard Chats with OpenAI GPT 4.0 about permanent synchronous stations over the sun, creating new challenges

I want observing stations near the sun to monitor it closely and continuously. Sunlight so close, might as well gather some into “atomic fuel”. Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation Richard: The earth has a specific distance and velocity for “geosynchronous” satellites. What is the radius and velocity of a solar synchronous orbit for a satellite

Note to Joshua Patin about magnetic binding energy, the real “cold fusion”, and the gravitational potential

Experimental Cross Sections for Reactions of Heavy Ions and 208Pb, 209Bi, 238U, and 248Cm Targets, 2002 by Joshua Barnes Patin at University of California, Berkeley, Professor Darleane C. Hoffman https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Joshua-Patin Joshua, I was looking for people working on fusion reactions using Scandium through Zinc, and found your dissertation, then some related people and groups. Your

Field Propulsion is 3D Electromagnetic Force management with high frequencies and high sampling rates

Master Ivo: Field Propulsion, Explained with Working Proof at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVjC47NBqfM You are wasting a lot of time inventing theories that are well known and trying to learn quantities that are relatively easy to measure and calculate. Start by thinking what you want to do. I suggest you use magnetic levitation first. Forces on wires and magnets

Richard Chats with GPT about A trip to the moon and coming back, ship and ground based field methods, synthetic 3D acceleration fields

This is a little tongue in cheek because GPT 4 is not reliable for any calculations and a pain to work with.  But the basic outline is about right, and gives what I have been working on for some decades.  More the last two decades. It is fun gathering and building models of the real

CSI Starbase – Global Open Collaborative Worksites to help with solar system colonization – nuclear nodes 10 GW for 10 minutes

CSI Starbase:  Why SpaceX Is Abandoning “Off-The-Grid” Operations At Starbase at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxjPRIiFL_c Great tracking and analysis. Do you have the system map, simulations and data online somewhere in open data formats and browser-accessible form? As an integrated model, you could run optimization scenarios to suggest very specific ideas to SpaceX and others. Not just from your

Strong force, stable magnetic fusion, Mr Fusion, replace SpaceX Booster with it magnetic equivalent.

The Action Lab: What does the Strong Nuclear Force Look Like? at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rx4lNihOT4U The Action Lab, Now take a beam of protons, grab them by their magnetic moment and spin them. Use the Block equations, or make new ones. Take another beam of protons or tritium or any of the “good fusion” candidates, they all
