Despite affectionate in-group monikers for big gay men—chubs, bears, cubs—the anti-fat stigma that persists in American culture at large still haunts these individuals who often exist at the margins of gay communities.

A study by University of Brighton researcher Nick McGlynn is spotlighting the often difficult experiences of fatter men in gay spaces across the UK. Dr McGlynn's report — entitled Bearspace — is the largest ever study of the UK's community of 'Bears', a term referring to big and hairy gay men who typically present in a more 'masculine' way, and who make up one of the UK's largest gay male subcultures. This groundbreaking research explores the experiences of fat gay, bi and queer GBQ men in spaces used and created by Bear communities in the UK, drawing on data from focus groups, interviews and Nick's own observations. As well as seeking to address a huge gap in research into the UK Bear community generally, Dr McGlynn's study was driven by a contrast between his own positive experiences in Bear Spaces and other evidence which reported these as sometimes rejecting or excluding fat men.

An explosive nuclear chain reaction occurs when a sufficient quantity of nuclear fuel, such as uranium or plutonium, is brought together to form a critical mass. This is the minimum amount of fissionable material needed to start a chain reaction. The chain reaction starts when neutrons strike the heavy uranium or plutonium nucleus which splits releasing a tremendous amount of energy along with two or more neutrons which, in turn split more nuclei, and so on. In this gun-type device, the critical mass is achieved when a uranium projectile which is sub-critical is fired through a gun barrel at a uranium target which is also sub-critical.
