Curium, dicovered in 1944 is an artificial radioactive element<ref>http://periodic.lanl.gov/elements/96.html</ref>, that was predicted would have a revolutionary impact on power generation, since it undergoes radioactive decay, giving out large amounts of energy if it is bombarded with [[plutoninium]] dust. However, the risk of spontateous radioactive release was deemed too great.<ref>Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry, F. Sherwood Taylor</ref> A compound of curium and [[neutrons]] is know seen as a potential fuel for [[nuclear fusion.]]<ref>http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/print/24295</ref>
