We are missing simple way to detect neutron radiation. Without it it's quite risky.

It isn't really radiation, it's a particle that has a certain speed. There is a certain amount in nature, background neutrons. What is important is to know that water stops it, certainly a wall of several centimeters. It is temarkable that nobody mentioned water until now. That was indeed dangerous.
I suspect in LENR we have similar sideeffects, but barely notice it due to the water in which the plasma takes place.


One needs to know what he's doing, this is not kids stuff (I just remember that tube vid by a kid, doing fusion in his room, whispering, so mom doesn't notice anything ^^)


I think it's save in Protium / tap water, although not in pure Deuterium or Tritium . Nevertheless  need to have an eye on beta and gamma radiation due to Bremsstrahlung (brake radiation) sideeffects etc of colliding particles.


But I guess a couple of cheapo fishsticks can be way more dangerous these days. greetings from fukushima...


In that report they gathered 24'000 kilowatthours with one iron bar... that's about 5000$ in nuclear electricity around here.

I perfectly knew that water will stop it for a little time, then it will be ionized and beta radiation occur. I planned to test it with a water container having some photo-paper in black envelope floating in water. All that is too tedious to be done in home. I hope so that this effect of Fe transmutation is not common one , especially with ferrite treated by high magnetic field pulses. I hope so.

I guess that would be known. It is an anomaly that appeared in NMR tests, with nuclear resonance. Normally you don't have a static, biased B Field, but the AC or Modulation only, right?


What do you mean, water stops neutrons only for a short time? The Neutrons decay in like 15 Minutes. Whether the water becomes radioactive, and how much, must be tested. It will however still stop the neutrons. If the fishes turn upside down then you shouldnt drink it , sure... What you can do: Use a video camera, close to the reactor. When the picture gets snowy then you know what's going on. You can also use a small fotovoltaic cell, covered with black paper. when you still get a voltage from that, it's radiation. You can also cover the camera lense. If you still get snow, then no good... like the footage from tschernobyl...

One reason why I probably won't try this is, somewhere they mention it takes 15 minutes for the reaction to start, so it may be rather "longtermish" to seek for resonance, unless you really try it with 21 mhz and 0.4T...
