The fusion reaction in thermonuclear weapons (hydrogen bombs) is caused by the nuclear fusion of different isotopes of hydrogen (tritium and deuterium), hence the name.
The "h" in "h-bomb" stands for "hydrogen." The hydrogen bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that uses nuclear fusion to release energy.
Atom Bomb = Uranium H-Bomb = Hydrogen
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.
A hydrogen bomb can be either clean, conventional, or salted depending on the material used for the fusion (secondary) stage tamper and how it interacts with the high energy fusion reaction neutrons.a clean hydrogen bomb uses a tamper material that does not capture or fission when hit by the high energy neutrons. Lead is one such material. Significant yield is sacrificed compared to a conventional hydrogen bomb.a conventional hydrogen bomb uses depleted or natural uranium as the tamper material, which fissions when hit by the high energy neutrons providing up to 90% of the bomb's yield and fallout.a salted hydrogen bomb uses materials in the tamper that readily capture neutrons and produce highly radioactive isotopes in the fallout.Note a very very clean hydrogen bomb has a tamper material so transparent to neutrons that almost all escape in a flash: this is sometimes called a neutron bomb!
Transmutation occurs when a fusion bomb (H-bomb) detonates: The Primary (A-bomb/fission) converts a heavy element like plutonium or uranium into lighter elements, such as strontium, etc... The Secondary (H-bomb/fusion part) converts a light element into heavier elements, like Hydrogen into Helium.
there is no Hydrogen in a hydrogen bomb.its called a hydrogen bomb because there are isotopes of hydrogen: tritium (3H ), and deuterium (2H,)
If you are asking which has the maximum danger, a hydrogen bomb is one type of nuclear bomb. In general, nuclear bombs can be fission (called atomic) or fusion (hydrogen) A fusion bomb is larger than an fission bomb, and actually uses a fission bomb to start the fusion reaction.
A hydrogen bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb, is a type of nuclear weapon that derives its energy from nuclear fusion reactions. It involves the fusion of hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium, which release enormous amounts of energy. Hydrogen bombs are significantly more powerful than atomic bombs.
Nuclear. At the time it was called an atom bomb.
What size of Hydrogen Bomb? How many megatons? the biggest size of hydrogen bomb can done ...........
The Hydrogen bomb.
The Hydrogen Bomb .
A hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear bomb) is more destructive than a regular nuclear bomb (fission bomb). Hydrogen bombs release much larger amounts of energy and have the potential to create significantly more devastation and damage.
hydrogen bomb
A bomb that splits a hydrogen atom, which literally explodes the air.
the hydrogen bomb has never been used in war
The 50 Megaton "Tsar Bomba" hydrogen bomb tested by the USSR in 1961 is the strongest hydrogen bomb ever detonated. The 10 Megaton "Ivy Mike" hydrogen bomb tested by the U.S. in 1952 is the physically largest hydrogen bomb ever detonated.
