In general, a fusion bomb (hydrogen bomb) is more powerful than a fission (atomic) bomb. Fusion bombs use an atomic bomb to begin the fusion reaction.
The uranium used for the atomic bomb was primarily sourced from the Congo and later from mines in the US. The uranium ore was then processed to extract the isotope U-235 necessary for nuclear fission to create the bomb.
I suggest Richard Rhodes book The Making of the Atomic Bomb.
atomic bomb
The main purpose of the hydrogen bomb was to create a much more powerful and destructive nuclear weapon than the atomic bomb. It was designed to release energy from nuclear fusion reactions, which is many times greater than that of nuclear fission reactions used in atomic bombs.
In what country was the plan devised to create an atomic bomb?
no
It didn't take 1 day to make the atomic bomb, it took most of WW2 for the US to create it with testings.
he created atom but he did not create the atomic bomb
Igor Kurchatov,
a weirdo
Rico fermi in 1938
She was asked to help create the first atomic bomb but declined. But she is the mother of the atomic bomb because her discoveries created it.
no, he spent the entire war in the army air force. he knew nothing of the atomic bomb until it was used.
Manhattan Project
An Atomic bomb is the detonator for a Hydrogen bomb to create enough heat for the fission - fusion chain reaction.
hey it took the 5 or 6 years to create it
