This is a very good idea. It will shield muon release and optimize energy production through fission which will yield 200 MeV per fission. A liquid molten salt blanket will allow easy extraction of heat using a molten salt to CO2 heat exchanger. A few corrections No laser => no proton decay => n

In reply to Jones Beene's message of Wed, 25 Jan 2017 12:31:15 -0800: Hi, You would get a far greater yield from your muons, if you use muon catalyzed T-D fusion to create 14 MeV neutrons that directly fission a Thorium blanket. This is because each muon can catalyze about 100 fusion reactions, w

Jones— What isotope of thorium is it that you believe could replace U as a target for energy production? I do not think there are any naturally occurring Th isotopes that fission. The closest reaction is a thorium-232 transmutation by a thermal neutron to U-233, which does fission. In

Both Ed Storm's and Holmlid believes that metallic hydrogen is the active agent in Cold Fusion. But there is a critical difference between Ed Storm's view of metallic hydrogen and how it behaves and that of Leif Holmlid. Ed Storms says that metallic hydrogen fuses immediately after it is formed whe

Thirty to forty years ago, *muon-induced fission* was a hot topic. Most of the radioactive heavy metal actinides were found to undergo prompt or delayed fission when placed in a muon flux. This includes thorium. The coupling is not huge but it is significant. However, at that time the economi
