Welcome to PF Multiades !
Welcome to PF Multiades !
I would consider the advantages of the suit to be the natural by-products of its design rather than "features", but that's just semantics.drag said:O.K. So what Kind of features would such a system have ?
I assume you could lift very heavy weights, though controlling
your center of weight during such an act would probably be quite
difficult. Running & jumping a lot better (if them soft problems are
solved too). Breaking things. What else ?
Thanks! Rude? Hardly -- unless you deleted a post that I never saw.drag said:btw, I appologize for being rude , better later than never -

O.K. but like you hinted that's "a bit" not the engineering approach.Multiades said:I would consider the advantages of the suit to be the natural by-products of its design rather than "features", but that's just semantics.
I don't want to talk about service life, limitations, and "too costly and sophisticated" until they have been built and determined as such. I believe that has been said about more than one invention that is in widespread and practical use today.drag said:O.K. but like you hinted that's "a bit" not the engineering approach.
Or as a favourite fictional figure with pointed ears, I like quoting, would say:
"Illogical".
It will be too costly and sophisticated for construction works, factories
don't need such complications either, military uses are limmited by
service life and in short urban engagements it would likely be
uncomfortable due to size and speed limitations. Maybe rescue
operations for collapsed buildings or for firemen ?
Live long and prosper.
whisper said:Thats correct, magnetic fields can't stop gamma radiation. Plasma on the other hand works wonderfully. Megnetic fields only keep the plasma where and in what shape you want it.
The plasma is the radiation sheild.

That is based on scientific theories made when the scientific community had very limited understandings of Plasma Physics. The fourth state in now understood to range from gaseous to crystalline. That’s as much as you can get from me, however you can google for this information as some of it is already making its way to the public domain.

The abasract is:
Abstract. Liquid and crystalline phases can be formed in so-called complex plasmas—plasmas enriched with solid particles in the nano- to micrometre range. The particles absorb electrons and ions and charge negatively up to a few volts. Due to their high mass compared to that of electrons and ions the particles dominate the processes in the plasma and can be observed on the most fundamental—the kinetic level. Through the strong Coulomb interaction between the particles it is possible that the particle clouds form fluid and crystalline structures. The latter is called `plasma crystal'. In this review we present an overview on the physics of this new area in plasma physics on the basis of theory and dedicated experiments performed in the laboratory and under microgravity conditions on the International Space Station.
---------------------------------
So where in all that do you get the impression it stops gamma better than the same mass in a non ionized state?

Here are a couple facts.
Metal generally is crystalline.
Strong magnetic fields cannot stop gamma radiation but magnetic fields can alter its trajectory.
Structural alignment is more important than mass and beyond that there are other forces that are more important than structural alignment.
Please don't expect me to explain the science or find all the papers and articles necessary explain all the process it's not something I can do.
So you'll have to take it on faith for now, I’m sure before long it'll show up in Scientific America or the like.

But, I too never heard of magnetic fields affecting
gamma ray trijectory.
