China is in the middle of a big buildup of its nuclear-weapon arsenal,” says Frank von Hippel , a physicist and nuclear-policy expert at Princeton University. “My Liquid sodium is used as a coolant because it does not slow down neutrons as much as water does. Weapons-grade plutonium can be separated chemically from the blanket.

The first time it was committed to print is a 2016 paper by this guy called Arnold De Loof , a researcher out in Europe. It’s got sodium, potassium, calcium, etc., It doesn’t really like sodium so much. This was work from Denis Jabaudon at the University of Geneva, and they were looking at how neurons actually differentiate.
