Now I am wondering if there is a chemical element, say francium, or say a radioactive isotope that we can track if there was a single atom of that element? An element that is very easy to monitor and track if there was a singular atom of it in an experiment.
I understand we can make diamonds with a high degree of purity. But I suspect that purity is not sufficient for a Dirac new radioactivities experiment, unless we can engineer that pure diamond with a counted number of radioactive atoms, say ten atoms of uranium fitted inside a highly pure diamond.
But better yet, I am thinking of a radioactive isotope that is easy to monitor if we had just a single atom of it. And hopefully it is a carbon isotope, or perhaps a gold isotope or silver isotope or a platinum isotope. Because in our history we have made coins and jewelry out of these metals and of course diamond jewelry.
So the question for the experiment is if there is a isotope that is easy to monitor for a single atom of that isotope. Then in the experiment, measure for the prescence of that isotope. ato If gold has a isotope that is easy to measure then we can enlist the gold bars or coins minted of old age.
If not, then we go with the straightforward experiment. We find what atom is easiest to monitor. We then chose a atomic number lower from the monitoring atom. For example if plutonium atom is the easiest to monitor then we chose uranium or neptunium atoms as the base of the experiment. We then enlist the help of the scanning tunnel microscope that can count out the base atoms. Suppose we count out 100 of these base atoms, say for example neptunium atoms. So we isolate those 100 atoms and we watch them over a period of time. On a day in which we come to look at our 100 atoms and find that there are only 99 neptunium atoms and 1 plutonium atom, is the day we have proven Dirac's new radioactivities additive creation is true. Is our state of technology and engineering up to par for such an experiment? I believe so.
