A nuclear explosion is the uncontrolled reaction (either fusion of fission) of nuclei and nuclei (fusion) or nuclei and neutrons (fission). Both processes produce vast amoutns of energy, as well as more nuclei or neutrons (for fusion or fission, respectively) to continue the chain reaction. This energy, if not moderated (such as in the case of a nuclear reactor, in which this reaction is harnased to produce electricity), explodes with a force many many times that of an equal quantity of dynamite (on the order of tens or even hundreds of thousands of times more force) or other conventional explosives.

Does France have nuclear capabilities?
Yes, France has nuclear capabilities. It is one of the few countries in the world with a significant nuclear arsenal, including both nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants. France has a long history of nuclear development and maintains a deterrent nuclear force.
Is India nuclear free?
No, India has both civil nuclear power reactors and nuclear weapons
What is mean atomic war?
This is a war fought using Atomic weapons. Atomic weapons are weapons that use Nuclear fission explostion producing tremendous pressure and radiation. Later nuclear weapons were called hydrogen bombs that use nuclear fussion.
What is the expected damage that would occur at an IBD if an explostion was to take place at the closest PES?
personel will be injured
