Tritium (from Ancient Greek τρίτος (trítos) 'third') or hydrogen-3 (symbol T or 3H) is a rare and radioactive isotope of hydrogen with half-life ~12.3...

Tritium radioluminescence is the use of gaseous tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, to create visible light. Tritium emits electrons through beta...

and the 3 H (or hydrogen-3) isotope is tritium. The symbols D and T are sometimes used for deuterium and tritium. The IUPAC accepts the D and T symbols...

Deuterium–tritium fusion (sometimes abbreviated D+T) is a type of nuclear fusion in which one deuterium nucleus fuses with one tritium nucleus, giving...

Look up tritium in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. Tritium may also refer to: Tritium Calcio 1908, an Italian...

energy of tritium's radiation makes it difficult to detect tritium-labeled compounds except by using liquid scintillation counting. Tritium is a radioactive...

denser but lacks unique properties. Tritiated water is radioactive due to tritium content. Heavy water (D 2O) has different physical properties than regular...

inhaled. Since tritium is a gas, if a tritium tube breaks, the gas dissipates in the air and is diluted to safe concentrations. Tritium has a half-life...

fusion reactors generally use heavy hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium (and especially a mixture of the two), which react more easily than protium...

plants. ITER will be testing tritium breeding blanket technology that would allow a future fusion reactor to create its own tritium and thus be self-sufficient...
