odd-weighing isotopes be fissile (no implication that there is no such rule). The reference [2] mentioning 244Cu as a fissile material is but a safety instruction...

then, guaranteed working. You only had to find some highly refined fissile material to fill it, that is the hard part. Still, when BBC wrote about this...

burning starts at one end of the pile of fertile fuel, forms fissile material, burns fissile material, leaves fission product behind, and eventually gets to...

(UTC) This list included Uranium 238. U-238 is not fissile - U-235 is the (naturally occuring) fissile isotope, and U-233 and U-232 can be bred from Thorium...

It was because these Orange Herald warheads would hoover-up scarce fissile material that they could only be contemplated for the Blue Streak missile, until...

Midgley 23:31, 16 January 2006 (UTC) I think that Thorium is a naturally fissile material, but I am unaware of whether or not fission based bombs can be made...
