Fissile material
Fissile vs fissionable
According to the Ronen Fissile rule, for a heavy element with 90 ≤ Z ≤ 100, its isotopes with , with few exceptions, are fissile Fissile nuclides
In general, most actinide isotopes with an odd neutron number are fissile.

Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty
The Fissile Material Cutoff Treaty (FMCT) is a proposed international treaty to prohibit the further production of fissile material for nuclear weapons Neither proposal would prohibit the production of fissile material for non-weapons purposes, including use in civil or naval nuclear reactors.

Denaturation
Denaturation may refer to:
Denaturation (biochemistry), a structural change in macromolecules caused by extreme conditions
Denaturation (fissile materials ), transforming fissile materials so that they cannot be used in nuclear weapons
Denaturation (food), intentional adulteration of food or drink rendering

why are fast reactors important
Such a reactor needs no neutron moderator, but requires fuel that is relatively rich in fissile material.

Fertile material
Fertile material is a material that, although not fissile itself, can be converted into a fissile material by neutron absorption. material would occur, eliminating the safety risk of transport of fissile materials from Earth.

Mark 8 nuclear bomb
Description
The Mark 8 was a gun-type nuclear bomb, which rapidly assembles several critical masses of fissile nuclear material by firing a fissile projectile or "bullet" over and around a fissile "target", using a system which closely resembles a medium-sized cannon barrel and propellant.

Plutonium-241
Like some other plutonium isotopes (especially 239Pu), 241Pu is fissile, with a neutron absorption cross section about one-third greater than that of 239Pu In short, 241Am needs to absorb two neutrons before again becoming a fissile isotope.

Mark 18 nuclear bomb
Its normal mixed uranium/plutonium fissile core ("pit") was replaced with over 60 kg of pure highly enriched uranium or HEU. With a natural uranium tamper layer, the bomb had over four critical masses of fissile material in the core, and was unsafe: the accidental detonation
