Demon core

  




Demon core


"Demon core" (1) is the ball, where is a small plutonium bite in the steel core, and when the structure is targeted by using electromagnetic radiation the increasing level of the radiation turns dangerous. The structure has been used in the modern ERW (Enhanced Radiation Weapons), but there is little know the thing that it is planned to use as the power source of some of the most exotic nuclear rocket solutions. 


Sometimes when we are hearing tales about "Ulam's demon" that means the demon core, what is used in the rocket engine for giving extremely high speed for that rocket. In some models, what are created during the "Orion project" the demon core would put in the reaction chamber of the rocket engine, and the electric impulses would conduct to the demon core. The increasing level of the radiation will make the radiation, which makes the special impulse, what travels in the speed of the light. 


The "demon core" is the term that is used in some nuclear weapon structures, where the subcritical bite of the radioactive material is closed in the metallic core. When the electromagnetic radiation would be targeted to the steel ball, where the nuclear material is, it causes a very powerful burst of the radiation, and the thing that makes this core extremely dangerous is that there are no visible signs of fission outside the structure. 


"Demon core" caused the death of three scientists in Los Alamos. During that fatal test the persons, who made that test conducted X-ray in the steel ball, and suddenly the powerful radioactive burst caused heavy injuries and death for those people. So what makes this deadly and horrifying effect?


The reason for that effect is that when the electromagnetic radiation hits the radioactive material that material starts to send beta and gamma radiation. When the electric pumping continues, the material will send the high level of the radiation. 


The thing is that when the X-ray would impact the plutonium ball, it sends the beta radiation. The fast electrons hit the steel ball or steel core and induct the electric field in that bite. And then the gamma-radiation would go through the powerful electric field, which increases its power. 


"The demon core" is one of the most effective structures in the newest sub-critical nuclear weapons. In those new type of neutron bombs or ERW (Enhanced Radiation Weapon), the plutonium bite would be shot by using lasers or cathode rays, and that thing makes possible to create extremely small size nuclear weapons.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...
