What man came up with the idea with the atomic bomb?

H. G. Wells thought of them and coined the term "atomic bomb" for his 1914 novel The World Set Free. However he had no idea how they might work.Leo Szilard invented the process of the neutron chain reaction in 1933 and patented it in 1934 with claims for its use in atomic bombs and reactors. However he had no idea what material(s) might be suitable to support the neutron chain reaction.The work of Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann, in Germany and Lise Meitner and Otto Robert Frisch, in Sweden showed in January 1939 that uranium fissioned when struck by neutrons. Thus it might be a suitable material for making atomic bombs.


How did the atomic bombs differ from bombs that had been used in wartime before?

Their energy came from that stored in matter (E=MC2) rahter than that stored in chemical bonds.
