    Natural Gamma Transmutation Studies
    (American Astronomical Society, 2021) Schubert, Peter J.; Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue School of Engineering and Technology
    Beyond Earth’s magnetosphere is a spectrum of extra-gallactic energetic photons of mysterious origin. Called the “gamma fog” this source of gamma rays provides a unique opportunity to study neutron generation (from beryllium) and the use of such neutrons to transmute elements found in the lunar crust. There are also many commercial applications.
