In talking to Jim Phelps about the spook Dr.P.
the emails arrived to this:

And the exact use of these is classified.

Then ask if open unshielded nuke reactors emit waves and particles and what would be the use of these. Ask, if these emission can be reflected or
***vectored as in the case of beryllium-copper mirror in hydrogen bomb designs."

Ideas anyone?
how about applications to mininukes?
I asked him that , and we shall see.
