Neutrino Carriers For Anit-Neutrons To Disable Nuclear Weapons

     We have discussed on this blog a way to stop nuclear weapons from detonating. The idea is to use anti-neutrons to annihilate the neutrons used to split the atom for the fission reaction, thus stopping it. No fission, no fusion. The weapon is defused. The problem is how to get anti-neutrons to penetrate the outer casing of a nuclear weapon. Nuclear weapons are designed to prevent electromagnetic interference and other types of radiation from penetrating the missile and are quite tough. The answer is to use neutrinos. Neutrinos are a subatomic particle that has almost no mass and go right through normal mass (solid objects). There are neutrinos going through you right now as you read this. If the anti-neutrons could be carried on a neutrino carrier wave or paired with neutrinos, they would be able to penetrate the casing of a nuclear missile. The next step is to determine how to harness neutrinos for this purpose. Stay tuned.
