Hi Bob,

Unfortunately such a reaction would be endothermic. However adding a couple of
protons might do the trick, and have the advantage of compensating for any
excess neutrons at the same time.

Actually, fission of elements not much heavier than Ni/Fe could be interesting
because the daughter isotopes may well be stable. I say this because the
instability of the Uranium fission daughter products is primarily due to the
large number of excess neutrons. For elements not much heavier than Ni/Fe OTOH,
there are far fewer excess neutrons, so any resulting fission products are
consequently less likely to be unstable.
The down side is that such elements are also much more difficult to fission,
i.e. the "hump" that has to be overcome is higher.

Prompt gammas are not really a problem, as they can be shielded, more or a
concern are gammas resulting from the daughter isotopes as they decay. If there
are far fewer (or no) radioisotopes among the daughter products then this also
becomes less of a (or no) problem.

Bob,


The experimentally-determined charge distribution of a neutron shows an outer 
"shell" of negative charge and thus the neutron should be polarizable. Had this 
been known early on, when the neutron was considered to be a proton + electron, 
I think the battle for that view would never have been lost and the result of  
relativistic-QM equations indicating deep-electron orbits would have been 
accepted 80 years ago. 

[The recently observed 'peak' in negative charge density at the very center of 
the neutron would result from the overlap of electron 'charge' density from the 
greater than nuclear-size deep-orbit electrons. Of course such musing of 
"nuclear electrons" is not allowed in publication because it would violate holy 
writ.]

...he means that they acquire energy from the fission reaction. However you are
obviously trying to emphasize the fact that neutral particles should be
difficult to accelerate using electrostatics only. That could be true, were it
not for the fact that neutrons have a negative near field, and are in close

magnetic field probably also plays a role, perhaps even the dominant role.

Understandably, a lot of folks in the USA  are against nuclear fission energy - 
no matter what. 

It is a no-win effort to argue the good points - since the high profile 
accidents like Fukushima are the only factor which is considered by many here. 
Low cost is no longer assured.

Yet - over the next 50 years, the World will need to produce more electrical  
energy than it has consumed in the entire history of man before the year 2000. 
Solar and wind will grow fastest but will fall far short of needs and are more 
costly than anyone wants to admit.

The USA does not need new power, so we can sound-off as being as self-righteous 
as we want to -  but that is not the real issue. The reality is that most of 
the World’s future power (from about 2025 onward) – especially in China, India 
and a few other countries will have to come from nuclear  - whether or not we 
in the USA object. There is no other feasible alternative other than low grade 
coal. Look at the current fission projects in China ! These will accelerate.

The best thing which can be done at the planning level -  by any of us in the 
West - given these hard numbers and future need -  is to help Asia develop a 
safer and cheaper system. 

If we can make reactors subcritical they will be safer. If we can use 
unenriched fuel the risks and costs will be much lower.

The French and their smart use of nuclear power should be an example to build 
on - but they have stagnated in this century.  We need new thinking on fission 
and that is why bringing in LENR makes sense. 

It is a mistake to ignore the fact that nuclear fission power will be with us 
for a long time, and the best strategy to cope with that is to make it as safe 
as possible. 

No one refuses to go to France because they make most of their electrical power 
from fission. We must start to think globally on these issues.

target. A chain reaction is far easier to engineer with an extra avenue of 
propagation (4:1 instead of 3:1).

Bob,

The experimentally-determined charge distribution of a neutron shows an
outer "shell" of negative charge and thus the neutron should be
polarizable. Had this been known early on, when the neutron was considered
to be a proton + electron, I think the battle for that view would never
have been lost and the result of  relativistic-QM equations indicating
deep-electron orbits would have been accepted 80 years ago.

[The recently observed 'peak' in negative charge density at the very center
of the neutron would result from the overlap of electron 'charge' density
from the greater than nuclear-size deep-orbit electrons. Of course such
musing of "nuclear electrons" is not allowed in publication because it
would violate holy writ.]
