  Video: Turning mercury-196 into gold-197
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-05-2025, 11:36 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Discover the cutting-edge fusion of ancient alchemy and modern science! Explore how Tokyo City University’s Nuclear Systems Lab, in collaboration with Marathon Fusion’s 2023 DOE-funded research, is turning mercury-196 into gold-197 using neutron capture and electron capture decay. With a yield of 2.2 mg of gold per gram and a 2018 RSG-GAS reactor demonstration producing 500 mg/year, this breakthrough revives the alchemical dream with scalable fusion technology. Dive into the science, history, and economic potential of synthetic gold, bridging Nāgārjuna Siddha’s legacy with today’s nuclear innovation."

"Manuscript on paper of a pietistic, mystical text in prose and verse, illustrated by a great variety of illustrations cut from manuscripts of smaller dimensions (plus some prints), and pasted in. These illustrations include the "Python" illuminated drawing which has been reproduced in color, a series of "alchemical processes depicted symbolically taking place within flasks", as well as many other pictorial elements drawn from a variety of sources."

  Art and Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-05-2025, 11:20 AM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"Lavishly illustrated, Art and Alchemy accompanies an exhibition of the same name at the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf that brings together historical texts and a selection of artworks that take alchemy as their inspiration. Among the works discussed are Melancholy by Lucas Cranach the Elder, an oil painting that plays on the classical alchemical element; Jan Brueghel the Elder’s The Allegory of Fire; and a variety of works by Dutch painter, draftsman, and printmaker Hendrick Goltzius."

  Tilton: Alchymia Archetypica
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-01-2025, 03:41 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

Alchymia Archetypica: Theurgy, Inner Transformation and the Historiography of Alchemy by Hereward Tilton

In late antiquity and the Middle Ages the ambiguous and often surreal symbolism of alchemy was purposefully employed to protect closely guarded secrets of laboratory practice, which most commonly concerned the manipulation and simulation of precious metals. Enigmatic figures such as the green lion, the black sun and the hermaphrodite were elements of a cipher language for the initiated laboratory worker; usually the tracts utilising this language were readily recognisable as recipes, but the extended allegories of Arabian and Hellenistic Egyptian provenance provided a further level of abstraction in the relationship of sign to referent.
