@minraja The beryllium sample of video is in powder, in powder is toxic, cause cancer, as a metal solid rod is nontoxic. Is more expensive than silver, so is only used in limited structural parts in high performance aircraft like SR71, or in high end diafragm of some danish speaker manufacturer is the strongest metal in the periodic table, forget titanium or the best steel, is strong metal in plate, as light as carbon fiber, 4 times stronger than steel by weight, titanium is 2,8 times

Beryllium is used in RF Output Transistors. If you open a PMR radio transceiver you sometimes find a skull and crossbones sticker inside...

So is beryllium a liquid metal or is it in powder form? I assume powder metal but I don't like to assume anything.

Fr. Michael DeLisle Lyons, SJ (a Jesuit) of Detroit, Michigan supplied beryllium to the US Government for the initiators of our nuclear weapons from 1945 until his death in 1974 from Chronic Beryllium Lung Disease (Berylliosis). For the rest of the story Google "WWJ, A Jesuit and the Bomb," by me (Jeffrey Allan McQueen . . . Fr. Lyons' nephew).

You can get pure Beryllium metal from United Nuclear, I have a sample. It's very expensive though, and it's been out of stock, but I believe they do have some more. It comes in a "ball" and is about 0.7 to 1.2 grams. It's about ½ the size of a marble. I believe it is currently $20. I know it's $8 for shipping (for most items), and you have to be 21+ years old to order (I think). It's very small, but very light. It's also extremely hard and has a very high melting point. It is a poisonous metal.

are neutron capture experiments dangerous other then the beryllium itself.

AFAIK microwave ovens have beryllium oxide as a heat conducting electrical insulator

I'm licking my fingers RIGHT NOW!
OOO YEAH

Beryllium is used in high end loudspeakers.

think of a granuloma as a reactionary tumor. The body detects irritation and forms a growth around the irritation to encase it.

Or put another way, artificial sweeteners were discovered by a bad chemist.
