Tritium production

@franco malgarini Can you elaborate more on what you are thinking? Note that old EXIT signs had glass ampules of tritium - there was a separate ampule for each letter segment. Tritium decays to 3He, so these tubes will be filled with T & 3He after the normal operational life of the sign. The ampules could easily be put into a coil and RF excited to check for neutrons. However, from your diagram, it is not clear what is the purpose. Your equation implies the presence of deuterium, and there would be no deuterium in the EXIT sign ampules.

@franco malgarini Why do you think that RF excitation of tritium will cause neutron emission? Tritium is a beta- emitter. Do you have a reference for tritium release of neutrons?

Finally, it could be the discrete starter about Ecat HT lithium devices ?

For example, about Lugano Dogbone, it was easy to hide RF excitation both with heating coil..

Then tritium supplied by an hydride..for example

Quote from franco malgarini

You take a single tritium lamp with coil and see........

Franco, you hope how much COP by your LI/T way or bismuth/T ?

@franco malgarini I probably will try this experiment. I have tritium ampules, an RF excited coil, and a neutron detector. However, if there is a paper where this has been done, I would love to have a reference to it.
