American military was pursuing new types of exotic bombs -- including
a new class of isomeric gamma ray weapons. Unlike conventional atomic
and hydrogen bombs, the new weapons would trigger the release of energy
by absorbing radiation, and respond by re-emitting a far more powerful
radiation. In this potential category of gamma-ray weapons, a nuclear
isomer absorbs x-rays and re-emits higher frequency gamma rays. The
emitted gamma radiation has been reported to release 60 times the energy
of the x-rays that trigger the effect.
A 60 times greater energy out than in sounds like F E to me, it also
sounds too good to be true. Perhaps what is meant is that the photons
produced have 60 times the energy of the photons that produced them,
does anybody know?
