Talk:Lithium hydride

message: Why not mention Lithium Deuteride as a fuel for thermonuclear weapons? I was redirected here; there is no reference to LiD.  It needs its own page.
- This page was censored by the powers that be, virtually all practical information about 3rd and 4th generation nuclear weapons has been redacted over the past couple of years. I can't say I blame them but they've gone a little too far. 27.32.119.135 (talk) 11:02, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Lithium Deuteride?

message: Lithium deuteride is so notable on its own, as a nuclear fuel, that it deserves its own article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Whoop whoop pull up (talk • contribs) 10:11, 23 January 2012 
:Most such splits are waste of time, as there is no necessity for them (this article is not overly long, and the material to be split is just a short paragraph). If you're planning to significantly expand LiD, then it is another matter, just go ahead and expand in Lithium deuteride. A minor expansion can be done in this article, and moved to LiD when necessary. Materialscientist (talk) 01:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

message: The very large H-bomb test called Castle Bravo in 1954 was a very important one in American history, scientific history, diplomatic history (because of the innocent Japanese and Micronesians who were irradiated and harmed, and even killed), American military history, etc. The Castle series of tests also proved the validity of the "dry" thermonuclear bomb using lithium-6 deuteride.
The pertinent nuclear reactions need to be shown in standard nuclear equations:
Li-6 + n --> He-4 + H-3, with the He-4 being an inert byproduct
The usual reaction for Li-7 is 
Li-7 + n --> 2He-4 + electron, 
but under extreme conditions, such as in the Castle Bravo test, other reactions can occur,
such as: Li-7 + 2n --> He-4 + H-3 + H-2 + electron, yielding tritium.
The hydrogen fusion reaction of H-3 + H-2 --> He-4 + n
happens under less extreme conditions than H-2 + H-2 --> He-4
and it yields more energy in the form of gamma rays and kinetic energy. Some expert needs to pin it down for us.47.215.180.7 (talk) 07:17, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
