True. Piotr Kosek's claim is true. The process of fuel breeding in a thorium reactor indeed involves thorium-232 capturing a neutron to become unstable thorium-233. This isotope then quickly decays (via beta decay) to protacti...

"In a reactor, this process is called fuel breeding. We need to take a thorium atom and hit it with a neutron. Then thorium 232 turns into thorium 233. And this isotope is unstable and quickly decays to protactinium 233, and this in turn after another decay becomes uranium 233." "W reaktorze proces ten nazywamy powielaniem paliwa. Musimy wziąć atom toru i uderzyć go neutronem. Wtedy tor 232 zamienia się w tor 233. A ten izotop jest niestabilny i szybko rozpada się do proaktynu 233, a ten z kolei po kolejnym rozpadzie staje się uranem 233."

Z torem jest inaczej. Tor 232, który występuje w naturze nie jest rozszczepialny. Nie da się go tak po prostu podpalić. Jest materiałem paliworodnym. A co to oznacza w praktyce? Wyobraźcie sobie, że macie mokre drewno. Nie zapłonie od zapałki, jeżeli ją podetkniecie. Musicie je najpierw wysuszyć przy innym ogniu, żeby stało się paliwem. W reaktorze proces ten nazywamy powielaniem paliwa. Musimy wziąć atom toru i uderzyć go neutronem. Wtedy tor 232 zamienia się w tor 233. A ten izotop jest niestabilny i szybko rozpada się do proaktynu 233, a ten z kolei po kolejnym rozpadzie staje się uranem 233. I tu dochodzimy do sedna. Uran 233 nie występuje naturalnie, ale jest doskonałym paliwem jądrowym. Jest rozszczepialny. Czyli w reaktorze torowym najpierw musimy wyhodować sobie paliwo z toru, a dopiero potem je w cudzysłowie oczywiście spalić. Nie chodzi mi tu o palenie ogniem, tylko o dalsze rozszczepianie i uzyskiwanie z tego tytułu energii. A

"We will not wait another six decades for confirmation of which candidate is the correct one. In March 2026, the Indian orbiter Chandrayaan 2 will fly directly over the selected area. This flight is part of an ongoing lunar surface mapping project, so that in the future we know where everything is. "

"the results delighted everyone, because the material obtained in the laboratory showed a powerful drop in shear wave velocity and a Poisson's ratio perfectly consistent with actual seismic measurements of the Earth's exterior. So, undeniable experimental evidence confirming the superionic nature of the core appeared before us. "

"Combining lensing data with supernova data, scientists calculated that the chance of this gigantic discrepancy in results being a mere random fluke or some statistical error is less than 1 in 10 million. The crisis has become a fact, and the Hubble tension has become a real problem in physics. "

"An international team of scientists working with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument known as Desi has published the results of their monumental research on the evolution of the cosmos using baryonic acoustic oscillations. When these extremely accurate maps of cosmic structures were combined with those known from cosmic microwave background radiation and traditional supernovae, scientists obtained a clear and unambiguous signal. Dark energy is not a constant value. "
