    Whats the densest non nuclear fuel/L you can theoreticaly make with any kind of sciece wizardry?
    >>

    metallic hydrogen

    nvm I was wrong, metastable helium is better

    Neutronium, just take it out of high pressure equivalent to a neutron star and it expands as well as undergoing beta decay. This isn't nuclear because it relies on the neutrons not being in nuclei at all.

    >>17079192
    so then why not quarkium?

    How about carbon subnitride? It has the hottest flame temperature at about 5000C.
    Or strained bond molecules such as cubane?

    of all the platonic hydrocarbons

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_hydrocarbon#Cubane
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubane-type_cluster
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercubane

    cubane is the most stable and energy dense. add some self-oxidizer to it and it stays stable. the platonic hydrocarbons become interesting for the same reason you want a highly dense fuel. the cubane molecule itself can be considered a cell of a crystalline structure, albeit with a node count of 1. when cubanse are arranged, stacked, layered, etc... they become hypercubanes. picrel shows a cubane node surrounded by another layer of cubane, making the early stages of a bulk solid crystalline fuel.

    of course liquid cubane is a thing, but most often it is stored in a frozen powder form. pumping liquid cubane is a pain in the ass, mostly due to the shear stresses imparted by a centrifugal pump, friction problems in piston pumps, and occasionally used with a pressurized gas to pump, but that is usually reserved for single-use propulsion.

    I've wrote about cubane on /x/ at length. it is mostly used in next gen combined hydrocarbon and field effect propulsion spaceplanes which spend most of their time planetside. the nuclear powered field effect ships are more space based since crashing one of those planetside would be a fuckin disaster.

    this MFer is making it in his backyard. there is a better synthesis path using bismuth which mmay eventually become public. all it does is take a normal octane molecule and fold it up.

    >synthesis
    better video here

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6jqlL5ZT3M

    picrel is the white crystalline cubane fuel I mention in the /x/ threads. he is handling it at room temperature in the video, but when you see it in practical applications, it is generally fed via venturi into a radiolytic combustion chamber to allow for digital combustion control and preventing the need for a flameout prevention chamber in an engine.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiolysis

    the actual aerospace version of cubane which uses some radiation sensitive doping agents, usually bismuth, to better absorb the focused microwave beam in the air-cubane stream of the combustion chamber. cubane itself is surprisingly stable.

    rad video shows different organometallic substitutional cubane derivatives.

    also, you'll find the DTIC reports here interesting

    https://dn790003.ca.archive.org/0/items/DTIC_ADA217147/DTIC_ADA217147.pdf
    https://dn760100.eu.archive.org/0/items/DTIC_ADA259861/DTIC_ADA259861.pdf

    cubane was/is one of the important fuels for the Strategic Defense Initiative. one of the other reasons cubane was so important to them was the stealthiness of it's combustion products. the infrared, radar, and other signatures of the exhaust plume are more easily stealthed.

    one of the extremely rare topics ever discussed in the UFO community is hybrid cubane field effect propulsion spaceplanes having been developed under SDI. the DTIC report above mentions some of it.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octaazacubane
    >Octaazacubane is predicted to have an energy density (assuming decomposition into N2) of 22.9 MJ/kg,[4] which is over 5 times the standard value of TNT.
    And it is stable. Seems like perfect jet and rocket fuel.

    wrong. it's some metal with no electrons.

    this would be serious biz fuel

    The electrostatic forces would be absolutely insane.

    i don't think black holes are made of what we usually call 'matter' any more so it doesn't really matter if they're anti- or normal
