Thus, natural beryllium bombarded either by alphas or gammas from a suitable radioisotope is a key component of most radioisotope-powered nuclear reaction neutron sources for the laboratory production of free neutrons.
Naturlig beryllium der enten bombarderes af alpha- eller gammastråling fra en passende radioisotop er en nøglekomponent i de fleste radioisotop-drevne kernereaktion-neutronkilder til laboratorieproduktionen af frie neutroner.
