Cancer cells grow faster than normal cells, and so take up more boron atoms.
Researchers sponsored by them came up with a non-toxic, low-temperature glaze based on boron.
The hydrogen (one proton) and the boron (five protons and six neutrons) do not really fuse.
Dr Post's system uses magnets made of an alloy of neodymium (a rarish metal), iron and boron.
The new work suggests that a preparation of boron nitride could outperform many nanomaterials and more traditional approaches.
BBC: 'White graphene' soaks up pollutants and can be re-used
He's cagey about the other ingredients, but some of his scientific papers hint at carbon, tungsten and boron.
Boron nitride, or "white graphene", is similar to its namesake: sheets of atoms laid out like a chain-link fence.
BBC: 'White graphene' soaks up pollutants and can be re-used
His group is trying to make nano-electrical components, and has built transistors based on tubes made of boron nitride.
Galeano, Boron and Perez Esquivel are not just identified as bloggers or anonymous fanatics that run colorful website pages.
CENTERFORSECURITYPOLICY: The Gaza Crisis and the Intellectual Left in Latin America
That means the electronic applications seem likely to go to boron nitride and other non-carbon tubes with similar properties.
The result of their game of nuclear billiards is, rather, to produce things smaller than the original boron three helium nuclei.
This involves injecting boron atoms into the cancerous organ, and using a neutron beam to split them into destructive high-energy particles.
The reaction Mr Lerner proposes would break up boron atoms by hitting them with protons (the nuclei of normal hydrogen atoms).
So doctors decided to try a method called boron neutron capture therapy.
Boron accuses Israel of being a terrorist, murderous and a "scoundrel" state.
CENTERFORSECURITYPOLICY: The Gaza Crisis and the Intellectual Left in Latin America
The reason is that the boron and hydrogen nuclei do, indeed, fuse.
The secret lies in the extremely light and stiff composite material made of boron carbide in an aluminium matrix used for the engine.
Using this data, Adams in 1995 concocted an unusual boron molecule that snuggled into one of the enzyme's active sites and blocked its function.
Boron implies that the Syrian regime, that has already killed more than 40, 000 people, is not a murderous regime but it is a victim.
CENTERFORSECURITYPOLICY: The Gaza Crisis and the Intellectual Left in Latin America
One of the challenges of aneutronic fusion is the fact that it uses a Hydrogen-Boron reaction for fuel, rather than the more traditional deuterium-tritium fusion reaction.
FORBES: U.S. Company Teams With Iranian University To Develop Fusion Power
The fuel would be injected as two beams, which would spiral their way down the cylinder, with the hydrogen chasing the boron and colliding with it.
Furthermore, using language drawn directly from Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and even Neo-Nazis, Boron blasts Israel for using the Holocaust as a way to blackmail the world.

One drug Glaxo is testing in early human trials is licensed from biotech company Anacor Pharmaceuticals and uses a new type of chemistry based on the element boron.
But although the new boron-based glaze now costs only a third as much as the traditional lead-based mix, getting people to change a centuries-old tradition is not easy, says Eduardo Berrocal of Fonart.
Of course, they didn't just use any old off the shelf magnet, instead designing custom neodymium iron-boron models that produce just the right magnetic field necessary to make that hard drive completely useless.
For example, Turkish mining law is investment-friendly, as there is little bureaucratic control, an easy permitting process, and lower fees, and allows broader activities for companies involved in mining gold, copper and boron.
FORBES: Small Caps Are The Rocket Stocks Of Emerging Markets
These porous sheets, which together form a coarse white powder, vastly outperformed sheets that did not have the pores, and commercially available chunks of boron nitride that is not made up of the tiny sheets.
BBC: 'White graphene' soaks up pollutants and can be re-used
Because some users turn the crank-handle faster and harder than others, a nifty three-stage gearbox and a dynamo based on powerful neodymium-iron-boron magnets is used to ensure that efficiency is largely independent of the torque applied.
