unreferenced date March 2009 Fast fission is nuclear fissionfission that occurs when a heavy atom absorbs a high energy neutron , called a fast neutron , and splits. Most fissionable materials need thermal neutron s, which move slower. Fast reactors vs. thermal reactors Fast neutron reactor s use fast fission to produce energy, unlike most nuclear reactor s. In a conventional reactor, a Neutron moderator moderator is needed to slow down the neutrons so that they are more likely to fission atoms. A fast neutron reactor uses fast neutrons, so it does not use a moderator. Moderators may absorb a lot of neutrons in a thermal reactor , and fast fission produces a higher average number of neutrons per fission, so fast reactors have better neutron economy making a plutonium breeder reactor possible. However, a fast neutron reactor must use relatively highly enriched uranium or plutonium so that the neutrons have a better chance of fissioning atoms. Fissionable but not fissile Some atoms, notably uranium 238 , do not usually undergo fission when struck by slow neutrons, but do split when struck with neutrons of high enough energy. The fast neutrons produced in a hydrogen bomb by fusion of deuterium and tritium have still higher energy than the fast neutrons produced in a nuclear reactor ... expedient of adding layers of cheap natural uranium. In fact, fast fission of uranium 238 provides ... bomb. Fast fission of uranium 238 does also occur in fission bomb s.

Unreferenced date March 2008 The fission sail is a type of spacecraft propulsion proposed by Robert Forward that uses nuclear fissionfission fragments to propel a large solar sail like craft. It is similar in concept to the fission fragment rocket in that the fission by products are directly harnessed as working mass , and differs primarily in the way that the fragments are used for thrust. In the fission sail, the rocket is built in the form of a two layer sheet, with some sort of absorber on one side, and nuclear fuel on the other. Atoms in the fuel that decay will release their fragments in random, but opposite, directions. In the simple case where the decay releases the fragments front and rear , the rearward moving fragment generates thrust directly, while the frontward moving one is absorbed in the front half of the sail, also contributing thrust. The system must be built very large in order to ensure that those fragments that are not moving directly to the front of rear nevertheless tend to hit the sail somewhere. A sail several kilometers on a side would have fairly good capture ratios . The sail is not a nuclear reactor , and relies on natural decay rates for energy release. The thrust from such a system will always be very low, albeit extremely efficient. Another problem is that the sail receives the energy equally over the entire sail surface, and thus can t be steered. This differs from a solar sail, where tilting the sail to the sunlight can produce a sideways thrust for steering. Forward proposed the system as an add on to existing solar sails. Close to stars where the light density is high the sails work fine, but as they move past about 2 astronomical unit AU their thrust is too low to be useful. Forward suggested that coating the sail with fissionable material would provide thrust in this region, where maneuvering is no longer as important. Such a system ...

ISBN 1 85233 751 6. ref Contact binaries are sometimes confused with common envelope s. However, whereas the first refers to a stable configuration of two touching stars in a binary with a typical lifetime of millions to billions of years, the latter describes a dynamically unstable phase in binary evolution which either expels the stellar envelope or merges the binary in a timescale of months to years.
