Neutron

We have a neutron.

So the we have the neutron.

And a neutron has no charge.

'Neutron Man' ... I can understand why.

I have made something new. Thorium did absorb the neutron.

Well, you saw it yourself, standing in those neutron beams.

But if you hit the thorium with a neutron, the thorium will absorb the neutron and it will turn from thorium 232 into thorium 233.

Uranium 233, if you hit it with a neutron it will fission.

Plasma of the neutron decays, and the outcome of the decay is...

Now what these colors mean is the red means that it's going to absorb the neutron and the blue means that it's going to absorb the neutron and fission.

A neutron essentially turns into a proton and it spits out an electron.

This is fast energy, that means a neutron is still going really fast.

How much energy did the neutron have that you smack the nuclear fuel with?

Helium splits out, and a neutron comes out and lots of energy comes out.

I guess we could call it that way are the electron and the neutron.

It's very radioactive, but during that nine hours, it really wants to eat your neutron.

And for the first time, we introduce the Plasma of a neutron. euh... of electron.

And it slams together deuterium, which is just hydrogen with an extra neutron in it.

But as they get heavier, they definitely get on the very neutron rich side of things.

Well, lots of blue, because when you hit these dudes with neutron, you want them fission.

And this light is created not out of what the material of the neutron leaves out.

So, for the first time, we call the, euh, decay of fundamental, Initial Fundamental Plasma, neutron.

In the previous session, we spoke about fundamental, Initial Fundamental Plasma, which was called a neutron.

And also significantly, this one neutron is going to spawn the formation of two or three additional neutrons.

That reaction at the bottom, that's lithium 6, plus a neutron, will give you more helium, plus tritium.

If you hit it with a neutron, it's going to fission and split into two pieces, two fission products.

Neither one of those bonds is strong enough to survive getting smacked around by a gamma or a neutron.

But fortunately, if you can do this fusion reaction, you've got a neutron, so you can make that happen.

But, because they are neutron rich they have to beta decay a couple of times before they reach a stable nucleus.

I want you to go back. Now I want you to hit it with a neutron and see if it will fission.

Look at plutonium, wow, big target, right? But one third of the time it's just going to eat the neutron in thermal fission.

It requires little less energy to turn neutron into a proton than the other way round, and so, that is the more favorite reaction.

At this point, the neutron to proton ratio has dropped to 0.14 and these neutrons end up in the like nuclei that they're produced.

So, the decay of the Plasma into neutron and proton brings into play totally different game, totally different understanding in the world of physics.

That's what it is, this we call the structure of Initial Fundamental Plasma some people call it neutrons, but, when this neutron decays, we...

The power of these magnets, the power of what we can do here, is that we can see an individual neutron with this technology.

And each proton has an atomic mass of one, in atomic mass units, and each neutron has an atomic mass of one atomic mass unit.

Does that mean that carbon has six protons and then the remainder, the remaining 6.0107 neutrons, it has kind of this fraction of a neutron?

Before a proton, there is always a neutron, because... by law of physics they cannot be a position, when there is a proton and no electron.

That's what happens when the uranium absorbs the neutron and doesn't fission, and turns into plutonium, americium and curium and few other, most of it is plutonium.

I want you to go into the nuclear lab and turn on the neutron bombardment system and expose this sample of radioactive material and find out what happens.

And the way they depict it here in the nucleus, right there, maybe these are the two I'm assuming they're using red for proton and purple for neutron.

And it has to do with this proton and neutron balance. The balance is wrong for what you have made even though it was right for what you started with.

So, in reality, what we have, this is the structure of what we call Initial Fundamental Plasma it's called the neutron, and that's what the structure of the Plasma is.
