Timing problem again. Gamma emission in approx. 1E-17 sec. Oscillation rate of the H atoms in the THz range. That means that the cycle time of the H atoms is about 1E-12 sec. Gamma decay is about 100000 times faster, so most of the time the energy will be emitted as a gamma. Furthermore, I don't think the Nickel is going to be all that willing to part with it's new toy anyway. ;) Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
