A start-up energy company, called Marathon Fusion, could soon live the dream of the Middle Ages alchemists. In a recently published article on the Arxiv Preprint Server, the company describes a method for transforming a mercury isotope, 198Hg, in 197AU, the most stable gold form. They say that this can be [...]
