Artist's Comments
I'm a Biochemistry student and this semester we were taken to see a nuclear reactor... And this is what we got to see, Uranium in work, full nuclear reaction!
The blue light is caused by the Cherenkov effect, which means that particles are traveling faster than light speed in the 10m deep pool that contains the reaction and their excess energy becomes light  .Hace unas semanas fui a visitar el reactor nuclear La Reina, aqui en Santiago de Chile por el curso de protección radiológica que estoy tomando este semestre en la Universidad (bioquímica!). Esta es una foto de ese paseo; Uranio en plena reacción nuclear! La luz azul es producida por el efecto Cherekov. Básicamente se produce porque las partículas producidas viajan más rapido que la luz y su exceso de energía se convierte en luz. Soph: l'explication en français est pratiquement pour toi seule  ... C'est une photo de l'effet Cherenkov. La lumière bleue se produit parceque la réaction nucleaire emet des particules qui vont plus vite que la lumière et leur excés d'énergie se transforme en radiation lumineuse!!! Je l'ai prise il y a quelques semaines pendant une "visite pédagogique" au reacteur nucleaire La Reina. |

 reports, 21h 40m agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

I hoped to see it happening during my Chemistry Excursion at ANSTO (Aust. Nuclear Science and Tech. Organization) but unfortunately the new Reactor Hall was still under construction so we only got to see the reactor from an overlooking window (which isn't even above the Reactor)
