Fission bullets, the most lethal projectiles in the world

Kimmo Huosionmaa

We all know, how effective depleted uranium ammunition is against armor and this ammunition is used by NATO in various conflicts. There are rumors, that there might be more effective and terrifying bullets existed in Russia, but as we might know, some of the projects, what are claimed to made by Soviet scientists might have the origin in other lands. Nuclear weapons are a politically sensitive thing. But they are very effective and in theory is possible to make the radioactive bullet, what will destroy an entire building with one shot.

And that's why some nuclear weapon projects are outsourced to Russia. In this case would be the thing, what is called "fission bullet", and if it exists, the thing would be the smallest nuclear weapon in the world. This would be made of Californium or some other synthetic highly radioactive element. The idea of those weapons is that they are subcritical, and that makes them harmless, but those materials must be stored in a very cold place, where the temperature is near absolute zero points, what is minus 273 degrees Celsius.

Because if the temperature rises the fission would be accelerated. This is the idea of subcritical nuclear weapon. The bite of the highly radioactive material would be radiated by electromagnetic radiation, what raises its temperature and accelerate the nuclear reaction. The fission bullet would be shot with a normal machine gun or other weapons, and during the flight, the piece would be heated by targeting it with electromagnetic radiation. This type of weapons is extremely dangerous and easy to a product if the state has nuclear reactors.

The weapon would be modified M-203 or AK-47 grenade rifle, and when the shooter opens the fire, the bullet would fly in the microwave spotlight, what would make it heating. In this case, the grenade launcher would be replaced with microwave system, what would be used to heat the bullet. If this weapon has existed, it would be the smallest nuclear bomb in the world. The Californium bullets are very lethal even without electromagnetic stimulation, and if they hit to tank, that would be melted immediately.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

"This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things. That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries. "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

(Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft. Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things. In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion. If we th
