The father of the atom bomb is generally considered to be physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer. He was the scientific director of the Manhattan Project. And you know why the Manhattan Project was created and what they did. A link can be found below to the Wikipedia post on Dr. Oppenheimer.
Several scientists could be considered as the "father" of the atomic bomb.
Enrico Fermi was the first to create a self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction so controlling the power of the atomic nucleus on December 1942, thus many consider him as the father of the atomic bomb.
Robert Oppenheimer is also considered as the father of the A-bomb because he was the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, the large scientific and military effort which eventually produced the first atomic bomb in 1945.
More subtly, Hungarian physicist Leo Szilard is supposed by many to have been the first to have understood that an atomic exploding device was possible, in 1932.
Many others could also supposed to be "fathers" of the atomic bomb: physicists as Niels Bohr or politicians as Vannevar Bush or even President Franklin Roosevelt, which took the final decision to develop the bomb and gave his full support to the Manhattan Project.
So, as many difficult projects, the creation of the atomic bomb was actually an effort by many, not by a single person.
Edward Teller- although he did not like that expression.
the sciencetist who involved into
Albert Einstien
atom bomb
he invented the dynamite or the atom bomb
No.
No, an atomic bomb uses fission, but a nuclear or thermonuclear bomb combines fission and nuclear fusion. Therefore, a nuke is more powerful than an atom bomb.
Well, the technical explanation is very complicated, so I will make it more simple: there are the fission bomb, and the thermonuclear bomb. The fission bomb makes an explosion through the splitting of atom. Atom is the smallest measurement. There are neutrons and photons in a atom. But when you split the atom to make a big explosion, you do not use any atom. We usually use an atom of uranium-235. When the uranium atom is split, the normal amount of neutrons or photons does not come out. Then the neutrons release lots of energy! (Very simple explanation: A fission bomb is a bomb that uses energy from splitting uncontrolled atoms. And a thermonuclear bomb is just opposite to fission bomb, it gets energy from fusion of atoms to make a heavier one.

Robert Julius Oppenheimer is credited with being the Father of the Atom bomb, but he was American.
Los Almos did much work but J. Robert Oppenheimer is called the father of the atom bomb
Otto Hahn, Fritz Strassmann and Lise Meitner in 1939; I consider that the expression father of the atomic bomb is not adequate.
An atom is not a bomb.
atom bomb
Atom Bomb goes by Adam Bomb.
Atom Bomb is 5' 11".
No the atom bomb is not more powerful then the H-bomb
Atom Bomb = Uranium H-Bomb = Hydrogen
The two atom bombs were the plutonium bomb and the uranium bomb.
