{"product_id":"californium-50mm-lucite-cube-cf2x2","title":"Californium 50mm Lucite Cube","description":"\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003eCurium is the gift that keeps on giving. The breakup of its atoms form (among others) a small quantity of berkelium-249 which, in turn, decays to californium-249. Previously unthinkable for a private person to own something this far into the actinides row, a handful of atoms of this superexotic element are being born inside this ornamental display each passing minute, and will continue to accumulate for years to come. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003eNot that you’d want much of it anywhere near you. Californium is \u003cem\u003ehorrendously\u003c\/em\u003e dangerous. Unlike many of the alpha- and beta-emitting radioactive elements we sell, which are trivially easy to shield, californium sheds the worst type of emission: the neutron. A loose neutron is akin to a microscopic cannon ball that can travel straight through concrete walls. Whatever organism is in its path is toast. If you were to admire a pinheaded quantity of californium you would probably regret it soon after. Your very body would become radioactive waste that needed to be encased in a leaded coffin. Fun, eh?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003eBut a handful of atoms needn’t worry you. Wait, that’s a metaphor. Not an \u003cem\u003eactual\u003c\/em\u003e handful of course.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luciteria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47806030250149,"sku":"Cf2x2","price":3000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/8833\/6805\/files\/Californium_282_29_4304ee89-6079-45d7-9fec-ae6d17fff38a.jpg?v=1778165330","url":"https:\/\/luciteria.com\/products\/californium-50mm-lucite-cube-cf2x2","provider":"Luciteria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
