Two Los Alamos Laboratory scientists discovered Arthur Ruhlig’s major contributions to fusion physics, and they did so completely by accident.

The isotopes -- light (H2) and heavy (D2) hydrogen -- differ only in mass of nuclei -- protons in H2 and deuterons in D2. Everything else including the electronic structure and energies are identical.

The article, “Isotope-dependent site occupation of hydrogen in epitaxial titanium hydride nanofilms,” was published in Nature Communications at DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-53838-6 .

ORNL operated two experimental molten salt reactors in the 1950s and 1960s, but the United States has none in operation now. ... to send two isotopes of hydrogen through the molten salt. ...

Quantum nature of hydrogen bonds in water manifests itself in peculiar physicochemical isotope effects: while deuteration often elongates and weakens hydrogen bonds of typical hydrogen-bonded ...
