Hello Stephen,
I know it's rare, that's why it says pres. synt; while the scientists
claim they need to refuel every six months.
Kind regards from the Netherlands,
Rob Dingemans (a.k.a. man on bridges ;-)

Tritium is Hydrogen ;-)
Tritium is a vanishingly rare isotope of hydrogen. There is
essentially none in the gas injected into the reactor.
So, where do you think sufficient quantities of tritium come from to
play an interesting role here?
No fake name it's an anagram of my name.

What about this reaction:
Ni (mass 60, 32 neutrons, pres. 26,223%) + Tritium (mass 3, 2
neutrons, pres. synt) --> Cu (mass 63, 34 neutrons, pres. 69,17%) +
gamma radiation.
Where's the tritium come from?
And why the fake name "Man on Bridges"?
