Americium is used for *ionic* smoke detectors. But now days it is *optical* smoke detectors that are commonly bought / used. It just use LED light and a photocell to detect the light from the LED. If smoke gets in the way, the detector will go off.

afaik, the LED in optical sensors is not pointed onto the detector. As soon as smoke gets in, the light from the LED gets scatteres and then gets into the detector, which makes them go off.

Barium: Oil well drills to float rock chips out of the hole, used to trace the digestive system as it is opaque to x-rays, old vacuum tubes to eliminate air and moisture, YBCO superconductors, and makes for great dead chemist puns.

Another interesting use for Gadolinium is in digital x-ray as a scintillator- when x-rays strike Gadolinium Oxysulfide (GdOS) it results in a secondary transmission of visible light, which photodiodes pick up to produce the pixel values in a modern radiograph. However by now, the more expensive and more sensitive Cesium Iodide (CsI) has pretty much taken over that role- even in low end systems.

When he got to number 6 I was smiling ear to ear while he was talking about it.

Americium was made famous by David Hahn in the 90's by scavenging smoke detectors to gather the 241Am to make his breeder reactor for an Eagle Scout project. While the reactor never achieved critical mass, his mothers back yard and shed became a superfund site and had to be cleaned by the EPA. The tiny amount of radiation in the smoke detectors are Alpha rays and the gold that the Am is sandwiched between is a noble metal, and absorbs most of the rays. Pretty interesting.

Osmium hadn't been used in fountain pen for probably a hundred years. It's far too toxic. Historically the tipping on the nib was an impure mix of osmium & iridium, but since maybe 1930 or 1940 it's been an alloy of iridium and platinum. The other reason osmium isn't used much is that it's extremely expensive, on a par with platinum. Osmium tetroxide (danger, Will Robinson!) does get used in certain microscopy stains, but it's one of the nastiest chemicals around. It might also get used in organic synthesis, but again, very nasty stuff.

In my Oilfield experience most companies actually use Americium-Beryllium, not Californium, as a chemical neutron source. However, this may not be the same type of measurement that you're referring to with a "Moisture Meter". For density measurements, Cesium-137 is used as a gamma-ray source. More recently, many companies have moved towards pulsed neutron generators which, while being more expensive, only emit neutrons when power is applied. This has the safety benefit that if the device is lost in transport or abandoned underground, it stops being radioactive. Source: My Oilfield Experience.

They're looking at stopping the use of antimony and using more phosphorus or organic based components in flame retardants (or they were last I checked). It's just finding ones that are effective enough while still having the processing and durability properties manufacturers want.

Here is a list of possible subjects: Why do I hate the smell of baby formula? How does a watch work?(Mechanical, quartz, complications, etc.) Does polishing platinum really not remove metal? Does Gold oxidize? Can I be allergic to gold or platinum? I'm a watchmaker so I already know some of these but I things but I think a lot of people would want to know them.

[01:38] charted to the right-of but it 'sits' one element greater in the Lanthanides; the table you're using is not the only way to represent the elements in characteristical orientation....

Fascinating. With the widespread use large elements in electronics, I'd be surprised if everything is of natural origin. How/where do these elements originate?

as long as you only want the fruit, you'll never see it grow. water your plant, not just walk by, pick the fruits and act like you're the kind of person that would water it. study science.
