    I take it there are also neutron emissions. Not just alpha particles. Neutron detectors used to be huge. How small are they now?



    Oh stop!

    Right. You mean slurry. It's called slurry. It might be a colloid but then so is ferrofluid yet you don't hear ferrofluidics being called "colloids" in the industry. "Hey Brad, do you think that colloid seal is leaking?" "Hey Mark, did you change out that silicon colloid drum today?"

    I will let the forum be the judge, but I think you peeked.

    Oh, and you're the one who's admittedly pissed thus your long ass line by line response above. I am just serving you up what you ordered.
    My God.

    You really are a lame pathetic bully.

    What's wrong, have to degrade others so you feel better about yourself?

    I used a term I was familiar with. I worked on CMP process equipment for eigth years. Here is one product used:

    Klebosol CMP slurry
    Klebosol is a leading brand of multipurpose colloidal silica, with applications in a diverse array of industries ranging from beverage to electronics. The Klebosol range of colloidal silica products are stable suspensions of independent (non-agglomerated), non-porous and spherical particles of silica (SiO2).
    Now...

    In working with the process engineers, I learned what a colloid was, and knew it could be applied in other forms.

    I'm curious though...

    What possessed you to look that up? Are you really so insecure that you take time to make yourself fell better by bullying others?

    One of the most famous neutron detectors is the Bonner sphere spectrometer (BSS). In its original form it consisted of a 4 mm x 4 mm high 'LiI(Eu) crystal which could be positioned at the center of five polyethylene spherical moderators 2 to 12 inches in diameter.
    You may read more from our FERMILAB report here:

    http://lss.fnal.gov/archive/test-tm/...ab-tm-1209.pdf

    Note the first reference on page 19. It's from 1947.

    Also, did you look at any of the prior links? The Princeton Lecture and the SAIC link will give you a sense of scale.

    Would they necessarily need to be small? Think about what you're scanning.

    What possessed you to look that up? Are you really so insecure that you take time to make yourself fell better by bullying others?
    Why can't I bull people without you pointing it out?

    So it took a process engineer to tell you that slurry was a colloid and you were so impressed with that you now use it as if it's esoteric, inside information.

    Isn't the truth more along the lines of the following scenario?:

    You see a topic. Feeling insecure because you know nothing about it you do an internet search. Instead of posting what you find and giving a link, and asking questions in a respectful manner, you make lecturing statements using a bas ized version of what you read, and because you lack experience or understanding of the subject matter, you make neophyte mistakes in your posts and cry victim when someone points them out to you. You don't want to be in the discussion, you want to be seen as an authority on things, to be some sort of a savant, but you aren't polished enough in your rewording to fool anyone.

    Cry victim all you like, no one here is asking for your opinion on these things.

    Oh, and lol at "neutron detectors used to be huge" comment. You must have written your PhD thesis on them.

    I've been all over CMP, never saw a neutron detector on a polisher.

    That's cool. Didn't know they were that small.

    No, I didn't have the time to go through the other links. Even the one was rather large.

    You are really pathetic to the point of laughter.

    Why are you so pathetic? maybe you need some mental help?

    WC: the neutron detectors used to be huge

    Ag: No they didn't

    WC: I didn't know that

    Ag: Did you read the links?

    WC: No, I didn't have time.

    And the one time you didn't Google it you ed it up. Why do you assume to be the authority on every subject but prove time and again you don't know about it? Then when confronted you call names and play the victim card?
    I'll take particle physics for 200 Alex

    Alex: Here's the answer...

    "This device was huge, used to test food for smuggled plutonium and radioactive colloids at sushi restaurants"

    BING!

    Alex: WC

    WC: What is neutron detector?

    Alex: No.... sorry. The question should have been "what is WC's head?"

    WC: dang, and I should have guess that one. I once triangulated my own head on Google Earth and emailed myself about it. I haven't spoken to myself sense, but then I've been extremely busy with my research. Meh, it's obvious no one here is my intellectual equal, just ankle biters.

    Alex: Ok then

    Its worth your time if you care to understand how we are moving to 100% checks on inbound cargo.

    I think I can trust your take on it. If I'm wrong about my next statement, please correct me. You are saying that we are at no risk of nuclear material being surrep iously brought in to the US through our ports because we have adequate checks in place. Right or wrong?

    It still doesn't address the actual reason for this thread though. People need to accept, or not, the food they buy from other countries. There is no good checks of incoming food products. Spot checks will miss some. We even have problems with domestic food.

    The idea of the legislation was to extend the zone of security so that US ports are the last layer of defense, versus being the first. As a function of US ports alone, no. If you include participating ports worldwide, then yes. You see, as part of the bill, Homeland Security has the power to delay implementation of the bills provisions until which time they see fit to implement them. I think the final date for full implementation is in 2014. They are balking based on cost effectiveness and such.

    So right now, your security is partly being assured by a port operator in Haifa, Rotterdam or Hong Kong, etc.
