So - "Four years ago scientists at U/Texas showed how to trigger a
change in half-life." Funny we never read about it in Science, Science
News, Nature or Scientific American nor has the Nobel Committee acted
on this. Nothing (other than the journalists' citation) has been
bruited about on this. Personally, my idea is that the wishful
thinkers are kicking about the old matter-antimatter reaction. Only
two problems - 1) making a significant quantity of antimatter and 2)
keeping it from reacting with ordinary matter. Solve those two
problems and you have a gamma ray bomb plus any size weapon you want.
Meanwhile I'll be searching UT to see what they actually did four
years ago.
