Physicists

[edit]
  • Antisymmetrized molecular dynamics – see [53]
  • Curie plot – a means to count the number of observed particles in interval ranges, as in a histogram of particle energies
  • Gamma Ray Emission Spectrum (data page) an index of gamma ray emission energies (the kind measured in Gamma spectroscopy). For example, K-40's emission is a broad peak at around 1461keV.
  • Geiger-Klemperer ball counter – apparently commonly used in research in the 1930s; see this Google search
  • Hydrogen-boron fusion (H-B) fusion – perhaps see Aneutronic fusion?
  • Introduction to radioactivity (or Introduction to radioactive decay) as the subject can be difficult for some people.
  • Methods in nuclear physics
  • Nuclear energetics – Calculations of energy released from all types of nuclear reactions (fission, fusion, capture, decay). Part of Nuclear reaction. Uses Nuclear binding energy as the theoretical basis and describes how it is applied in multiple reactions and species. Consolidation from Decay heat, Decay energy, Nuclear reaction#Energy Conservation, and Nuclear fission#Energetics. Finally, discuss the measurements and simulation of complicated models. This article should not discuss practical aspects of harvesting or removing heat from reactions. See "Fundamentals of Nuclear Science and Engineering" (PDF).
  • Nuclear fuel cell – Would be nice for people to explain it, and whether it would be theoretically possible or even efficient; Seems it might just be an imaginary tale of Hollywood
  • Pion photoproduction
  • PM2A – the first portable nuclear reactor, used near Thule Air Base, Greenland for Project Iceworm from 1960 to 1966 by the Army Nuclear Power Program; see this picture (currently redirect)
  • Principles of Nuclear Magnetism – some of Nuclear magnetic moment may be intimidating, but there are many links from there
  • Pycnodeuterium – a molecular form of deuterium used in cold fusion reactors (currently redirect to Deuterium)
  • Radiopurity – Freedom from radioactive contamination. The word is used in numerous low-background physics experiments' articles, and might be worth a brief definition. Or maybe a redirect?
  • Real physical nuclear models
  • Reverse Compton Edge
  • Upgraded SG-II & SG-III – SG-III is a laser facility (200kJ/48 beams) which is expected to be completed in 2012. [54] [55]
  • Bragg-Kleeman Rule - where R (1 and 2) are the ranges of particle 1 and 2, (1 and 2) is the density of the medium particle 1 or 2 is traveling through, and A is the atomic weight for particle 1 or 2. It is a relation useful in detection methods for particles. It is discussed briefly in Nuclear Electronics by P.W. Nicholson. I was searching for this article because I had a question about the rule, so I can't really provide much more information.
