This radiative capture process was applied to the study of the nuclear processes at the heart of a star, and the production of the heavier elements.
2.
After this radiative capture, Th-232 becomes Th-233, which undergoes two beta minus decays resulting in the production of the fissile isotope U-233.
3.
The radiative capture cross section for Th-232 is more than three times that of U-238, yielding a higher conversion to fissile fuel than that from U-238.
4.
Since uranium is present in MOX, although plutonium will be burnt, second generation plutonium will be produced through the radiative capture of U-238 and the two subsequent beta minus decays.

In 1986 Maurizio Diana and his team take part in the Venice Biennale in the section " Art and Science " with a didactic analysis on capillary action of water within the walls of the palaces of Venice, through the technique of " radiative capture of neutrons ".
