Particle Accelerators.
Particle accelerator
in nuclear reactors and particle accelerators
Synthetic elements are obtained: - in nuclear reactors - as a result (in debris) of nuclear weapons explosions - with the aid of particle accelerators
Synthetic elements are usually radioactive, but not necessarily so. It is conceivable for a non-radioactive neutral atom to be produced by a nuclear spallation reaction.
The range of elements found on earth were formed by some supernova explosion in the distant past, and somehow the earth was formed from the debris and then captured by the sun. Fusion must have been involved though the exact course of these events can only be surmised. Nuclear fusion has not been used on earth to create synthetic elements, and in fact has only been produced in a few places for very short times, less than one second. You are probably thinking of nuclear fission, where operation of nuclear reactors does produce synthetic elements such as plutonium. These are called the transuranic elements.
It depends on the element. Some synthetic elements can be made by bombarding the nucleus of a lighter element with protons or alpha particles. The heavier synthetic elements are made by colliding atomic nuclei with one another.
Radioisotopes for many uses (e.g. medical, industrial, scientific) are produced in nuclear reactors.
No, plutonium is obtained in all the types of nuclear reactors.
Well, as nuclear reactors are nuclear reactors, nuclear reactors are not used inside nuclear reactors.
Creation of synthetic elements in the laboratory is not based on nuclear fusion.
Submarines are powered by diesel fuel (in the past) or more recently by nuclear reactors. Nuclear reactors provide advantages in range and in noise produced.
Synthetic elements are obtained by nuclear reactions.
