Nuclear Resonat Battery test soon to come

@pomodoro I'm not sure about plating but there's got to be a way to electrodeposit UO2.seperating the uranium from the stable uranyl (UO2 ++) ion is a monster task so its going to have to be a glazed coat of oxide.I'm wondering how such a coat on thin-thin nichrome wire would affect resistance? @kator its easiest to just geta hold of uraninite or thorite minerals from ebay or mineral/gem supplier then dissolve in HCI or HNO3 to get desired salt for testing purposes.I drew those diagrams now but the idea was from years ago when I was testing rubidium/potassium for current.I actualy don't have any thorite or uraninite in stock but I will try get hold from gem suppliers here.use only tiny bit iodine crystals in that cell otherwize you swamp the anode with too fast corrosi.actually you don't even need the iodine,just natrium iodide(NaI)or KI,and some uranium or thorium chloride,iodide,nitrate,bromide,acetate.any soluble compound.

@Kator 

i wont be able to work on this till early next week, but yes I do have  a L and C meter.  The cap is 0.25uF but I think its more like 0.22 from memory and the new coil is just over 2uH.

Yes i do have some lower value caps, like the ones used in tube amplifier finals. pFs.

I was also under the impression that ferrite and iron cores are a bit lossy compared to air?

I have some powdered iron toroid cores, amidon red, good for 1kw and smaller ferrite ones, yellow but may not be amidon brand.

Regarding the thorium, I don't think its very active. Youtube videos show little activity when a geiger counter is put next to the mantles.

@profitis: The uranium would only turn a thin layer of the silver chloride back to silver. The water molecules would also absorb most of the alphas.


Guys there is a patent out there, which has been mentioned on this group before, that talks of copper oxide being important for the conversion of radium energy into electrons.

Something to look into if the uranium on copper doesn't work.

Also check out the Lemeir test with radium near an antenna. Its available as a pdf on the web.

True pomodoro.uranium is puny-shit BUT it also releases gammas,x-rays,imagine tritium/radium infron.I think the way to go with uranium is to do a curie-style step-up enhancement of activity by exposure to other non-radio elements which undergo transmute then much more rapid decay.in other words uranium's neutrons or alphas are say 3Mev energy each,when they hit other element eg Bi they transmute to eg polonium with much faster decay but less Mev(perhaps Kev) hence bismuth will become more radio-active than the uranium to begin with.brown had beryllium in his sheet,maybe this is the key because alphas+ beryllium= neutrons=cascade transmute of gues what,copper

Do you have any beryllium carbonates/oxides pomodoro.mix with the uranium?do you have a geiger. Omg..have a look at this http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/beryllium_copper is actually used for springs/tools

Bit too creepy for me. I can't detect neutrons with the Geiger counter.  So I guess anyone can make a neutron/beta source! Americium from smoke detectors and a thin beryllium copper shimming material.

If the uranium doesn't help the coil I'll start making uranium doped diodes and capacitors.
