The embodiments disclosed herein are directed to systems, methods, and devices for pyrolysis of methane in a microwave plasma for hydrogen production and structured carbon powder. Some methods are directed to producing a structured carbon powder using a microwave generated plasma comprising injecting a plasma gas comprising methane (CH) into a liner, the liner in communication with a microwave waveguide; propagating microwaves through the microwave waveguide, the microwaves generated using a microwave generator; and generating a microwave plasma by contacting the plasma gas with the microwaves.

Systems, methods, and device for pyrolysis of methane in a microwave plasma for hydrogen and structured carbon powder production

A modular barrel system for firearm includes a first barrel segment and a second barrel segment. Each barrel segment comprises a tubular member having an axial bore, a proximal end, and a distal end. The proximal end of the first barrel segment has a first threaded element for removably attaching the first barrel segment to a firearm. The distal end of the first barrel segment has a second threaded element and the proximal end of the second barrel segment has a third threaded element which is complementary with the second threaded element, the third threaded element for removably attaching the second barrel segment to the first barrel segment. In a further aspect, method for the manufacture of a modular barrel system are provided.

Modular barrel system and method for its manufacture

In one aspect, a sensor system for advanced smart weapons barrels includes one or more sensors, the sensors connected to a processor by way of conductive elements. The smart weapons barrel system may include one or more barrel segments, such segments being removably attached to each other. In certain embodiments, the sensors are positioned along the barrel segments and generate an electrical signal in response to a projectile being fired by the host firearm as the projectile moves past the respective sensor. The processor receives raw data from the sensor signal and may extrapolate and/or calculate further information in order to determine any number of a variety of metrics or other data analysis, including, but not limited to, round count projectile velocity, rate of fire, etc.
