Consider the D−T reaction (deuterium−tritium fusion)
\[\ce{^2_1H + ^3_1H -> ^4_2He + n}\]
Calculate the energy released in MeV in this reaction from the data:
`"m"(""_1^2"H")`= 2.014102 u
`"m"(""_1^3"H")`= 3.016049 u
Consider the D−T reaction (deuterium−tritium fusion)
\[\ce{^2_1H + ^3_1H -> ^4_2He}\]
Consider the radius of both deuterium and tritium to be approximately 2.0 fm. What is the kinetic energy needed to overcome the coulomb repulsion between the two nuclei? To what temperature must the gas be heated to initiate the reaction? (Hint: Kinetic energy required for one fusion event =average thermal kinetic energy available with the interacting particles = 2(3kT/2); k = Boltzman’s constant, T = absolute temperature.)
Obtain the maximum kinetic energy of β-particles, and the radiation frequencies of γdecays in the decay scheme shown in Fig. 13.6. You are given that
m (198Au) = 197.968233 u
m (198Hg) =197.966760 u
Write the basic nuclear process underlying β+ and β– decays.
Write the β-decay of tritium in symbolic form.
Why is the detection of neutrinos found very difficult?
What is the difference between cathode rays and beta rays? When the two are travelling in space, can you make out which is the cathode ray and which is the beta ray?
In beta decay, an electron (or a positron) is emitted by a nucleus. Does the remaining atom get oppositely charged?
During a negative beta decay,
Consider a sample of a pure beta-active material.
