Best Answer

Essentially, a core of fissionable material is impacted to such a degree that it will begin to undergo fission because of loose neutrons impacting the nuclei of the fissionable material. There are two methods, the first is by firing a bullet of fissionable material into a larger mass, and the second is by using conventional explosives to simultaneously concuss the material on all sides.
