In places with high Neutron Flux es (primarily the cores of Nuclear Reactor s) neutron activation contributes to material erosion, and the materials themselves must be disposed of as low-level Radioactive Waste . Some materials are more subject to neutron activation than others, so a suitably chosen low-activation material can significantly reduce these problems. One way to demonstrate that Nuclear Fusion is occurring inside a Farnsworth-Hirsch Fusor is to use a Geiger Counter to measure the radioactivity induced in a sheet of Aluminum Foil . The lasting radiation from a Nuclear Weapon is in large part due to the neutron activation of the bomb itself and the surrounding material. EXTERNAL LINKS |
