Guys this is my final and only take on paki nuclear sites being bombed:
What the pakis say, what IAEA says, what even bhagwaan vishnu says, is irrelevant in matters of pure, proven science. If tomorrow vishnu came to me and said 'F=ma is bullshit', i will say 'no, you are wrong' and nothing will budge me on that, because science isnt subject to authority but empirical proof.
Boron loaded plane landing in pakistan a day after alleged hit on nuclear storage facility is the empirical proof of meltdown - that is the ONLY function of boron in nuclear physics - to absorb neutrons and act as a reactivity controller (aka killer). you only need boron in anything radioactive for TWO and ONLY TWO purposes -
1. to put it around fissile material- such as high grade enriched nuke bombs or medium grade/low grade non enriched uranium-so it can keep the reactivity under check and not make the reactivity go outta control, overheat the fissile material ( as radioactivity generates heat and sufficiently massive pile of uranium will generate enough heat to eventually melt itself and then as temp keeps rising, catch on fire).
2. To put out a meltdown fire, as boron will hoover up all the emitted neutrons and kill reactivity, thus reducing internal temperature and eventually, turning the fuel into non-burning material ( temp drops below combustion point) and then eventually, into a rock again (temp drops to below melting point).
These are not just proven facts about nuclear physics, these are BASIC nuclear physic facts that a non nuclear physics grad like me knows ( i am math grad) coz i took just ONE uni course in nuclear physics - the very first one offered in university, which is in 3rd year.
So it doesnt matter what the world is saying, what the entire universe is saying. Science is not subject to populism, its not subject to appeals to authority. its only subject to empirical proof and deductive logic.
And that is the existence and arrival of this boron plane to pakiland.
The end.
