-> Sorry, no details, I read about this stuff about 15 years back (silly me, I
-> don't think I still have the magazines). Note also that the idea back then was
-> to use tritium instead of plain hydrogen, and tritium is radioactive (beta) in
-> itself.

 BUT a Gamma Ray cannot create anythoing .Typicaly it takes a Neutron
added to the Nucelus of an atom to make it radioactive. Gamma/Beta/Alpha
are basicly Radioactive Decay products as the result of the Added
Neitrons in a particle.
Again this is from WAY back in my Memory Also.
