That isn't how nuclear fission works. If anything the end product of two carbyne molecules reacting with each other would be graphene/graphite if in bulk.

[QUOTE=Cabbage;41869608]Apparently carbon fullerenes are meant to be '0-dimensional' whatever the fuck that means[/QUOTE]
Bucky balls? They're little (kinda) spheres made of carbon, so I guess they could be considered to be point-like and therefore zero-dimensional, but eh, that's kinda hand-wavey. Graphene isn't really 2D anyway, it still has a thickness.

I think you'll find [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine]carbon does that too[/url].
[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;41871988]Atoms are made of smaller particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. All three of those are made of smaller particles called quarks.
A single quark would be closer to 0D[/QUOTE]
Electrons aren't made of quarks.
This is the coolest thing that I will never hear about again.
If you made a rectangle of graphene and immersed it in a colloid of carbyne, would it wrap around due to their non polarity and make a stable carbyne rod, like how steel cables are caged in another big tube?
