Talk:Photoluminescence

message: "This is one of many forms of luminescence (light emission) and is distinguished by photoexcitation (excitation by photons), hence the prefix photo-."
They both have the prefix photo, indicating photons. They both involve absorption of photons by electrons. The only difference I see stated here is that photoluminesence is followed by re-emission of a photon. However, due to finite excited lifetimes, it will be re-emitted in both cases. Thus I do not see a distinction between the two. Zylorian (talk) 18:20, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Plutonium-239

message: Is it really possible for the reactor to extract more energy than the total energy released from the fission?  (211.5 MeV vs 207.1 MeV)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.242.74.200 (talk) 15:55, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Numerical error in "Sum" and "Energy converted into heat" 

message: At U-236 it says:
"When 235U absorbs a thermal neutron, one of two processes can occur. About 82% of the time, it will fission; about 18% of the time, it will not fission, instead emitting gamma radiation and yielding 236U"
At Pu-240 it says:
"About 62% to 73% of the time when 239Pu captures a neutron, it undergoes fission; the remainder of the time, it forms 240Pu."
At Pu-239 it says:
"239Pu has a higher probability for fission than 235U and a larger number of neutrons produced per fission event, so it has a smaller critical mass."
I'm no nuclear physicist but methinks there's an error there somewhere.  190.100.175.35 (talk) 06:38, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: See neutron cross section. Plutonium is about twice as likely as 235-U to capture a neutron in the first place, so it has a higher overall probability to be induced to fission. VQuakr (talk) 06:54, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible error? 

message: Military weapons are "poisoned"(less reliable) when several percent of Pu240 accumulates. This occurs from neutrons from Pu239 SF and subsequent fissions and delayed neutrons in the pit. For this to occur with fast neutrons would require a significant Spontaneous Fission rate. What is the SF rate? [Is it US government censorship? Or does noone know this information (hard to believe.)] The upcoming multi Trillion dollar replacement of older Plutonium weapons by the US Pentagon is significant and the SF rate is pertinent. Also no mention of health hazards from neutrons, which goes through most shielding. Rem thermal neutrons decay. TaylorLeem (talk) 18:46, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Papago Park

message: It would be nice to have more info on the geology of the buttes, which easily the most distinctive aspects of the park. The article says they're sandstone, which is not really true--they're rather a conglomerate, and a rather odd one at that: chock full of un-eroded (sharp edged) rocks of various types, cemented together with a shale/sandstone matrix.  A couple references elsewhere on the web imply the rock came from a landslide off of a mountain, but the location of the putative (and now eroded) mountain is unknown.  I'm not enough of a geologist (read: I sometimes collect rocks) to evaluate that.  And I found no indication of why, if these are the remnants of a landslide, they're standing up as buttes while everything around them has been eroded flatter than a pancake.
Anyway, I wish a geologist would add some enlightenment to this article. Mcswell (talk) 05:28, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

In fact, the vertex is at the geometric center of the mirror. The center of curvature is located along the optical axis, some distance from the vertex, which the optical axis also intersects. The radius of curvature is the radius of the sphere from which the mirror was cut.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.80.117.214 (talk) 00:31, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
