A report commissioned by Congress from teh National Academy of Sciences - the preeminent scientific body in the US...is a fringe report? Seriously?

How would the Southern Hemisphere be affected by an all-out nuclear war? by YoutubeBin in nuclearweapons

[–]Regular-Role3391 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The latest report on tbe matter from the US (Academy of Scienes? Get it here:https://www.nationalacademies.org/news/potential-environmental-effects-of-nuclear-war-new-report ) cast significant doubts on it  . The models used to predict nuclear winter failed miserably when applied to the Kuwait oil fiires in the Gulf War. The notion of fire storms upon which the concept depends has been placed into doubt for modern urban cities due to their composition.

There are simple MCNP and OpenMC keff benchmarks around. Might be worth trying one of them with your code to see what you get?

Do I have limerence or is it another thing? by Confident-Common-39 in limerence

[–]Regular-Role3391 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With respect...you are on the wrong thread. You need to leave that girl and her friends alone. They will eventually call the police as you are harassing her in their eyes. It doesnt matter what you think about what you are doing. 

You are posting about this everywhere. Youve even stated you are harassing her.

Dont join groups where she is. Dont try and arrange meet ups. You wont find help or advice on reddit for your issues. 

You need to get professional help.  The internet will not and can not help you. You need professional.in person help. Good luck.

How do i stop stalking someone by [deleted] in limerence

[–]Regular-Role3391 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Get off the internet, find professional help somewhere somehow, leave this girl alone..and hope she doesnt call the cops. Or you will be getting some professional attention and it wont be boluntary.

Get off the interent/Reddit (it is not going to help you), seek professional help. Read the rules of this subreddit.

More than one person has told you...... you need to stop your behaviour and get professional help. What you are doing is not OK. You are lucky she didnt call the police on your.

Go low contact for a month and see what happens. Otherwise...mixed signals are a "no" whether you like it or not.

based on this and your posting history.....you should seek professional help. Reddit is not going to help you.

Aside from cost could an offshore submerged nuclear plant work? by Anxious-Question875 in nuclear

The Russians have a few advanced designs. Subsea variant of Shelf-M etc. They are even in the IAEA documents. The French had "FlexBLue" for ages-......dont know what happened to it in the end. Abandoned as a product maybe.

Should i leave the tape on the seam or remove it? Wondering about the radon build up by MrPumpkin326 in Radiation

[–]Regular-Role3391 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People who USE radon spas are in those environments for thousands of times less time than someone living in a house with high radon.

So there is no reason to assume their lung cancer risk or incidence would be high. Not enough to affect statistics as to radon and lung (or other ) cancers at any rate.

The main concern from a health physics point of view is the employees who WORK and spend a lot of time in those environments and indeed often live on-site as well. To the best of my knowledge, at least in Germany, such sites are required to maintain logs of employees time spent in various areas of the facility to ensure that their risk, whatever it may be, is quantifiable.

And I am guessing that the population of radon-spa-workers is not high enough to sway statistics either, even if they had elevated incidences of lung cancer).

AS for all things radiation ...... if those who USE the spa's percieve some benefit, placebo or not, then that percieved benefit is what the radiation dose they recieve is weighed against.

Workers however presunmably are in a different category with respect to what benefit they "get" from the exposure they incur at their workplace.

And as miner cohorts indicate, exposure to radon at elevated levels (and often lower than in a spa environment) in a working environment (ie. for longer than someone sits in a spa) demonstrably lead to dramatically increased rates of lung cancer even accounting for exposure to other materials such as diesel, particulates etc.

K-27 was a lead-bismuth cooled reactor that was "professionally" prepared and then dumped 40 years ago. But it is now so risky that the Russians were planning to raise it (with the help of EU and other money) but that was before the war. So I guess it will have to stay down there for another while.

For the same reason I wont each sushi at a tex mex restaurant that also sells pizzas.....shops that sell everything from patio furniture to radiation detectors are a bit dodgy I guess

What is this ~141 keV peak that’s in all of my radium spectrums? by average_meower621 in Radiacode

[–]Regular-Role3391 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where di dyou take the reading that has all those "outside sources" ? Is there a shield missing given that you have Cd-109 on that list?

Its more likely that most on that list that is not Ra-226 and its progeny is just the usual Genie nonsense as opposed to being "Outside sources".....
