Someone out there knows how this bomb works?

Well i'm tryng a mod with it.

I kwnow the theorical part of it (nuclear things...), but i don't know the effects.

It's true that Hydrogen burns Hoxigen around the detonation? Or it's just like a nucleare bomb but more powerfull?

An H-bomb is a more powerful version of a nuclear bomb that uses tritium to create a fusion reaction that generates Helium, similar to that that powers the sun. The nuclear yield is very small, and all of the power comes from the hydrogen fusion.

Well, when it comes to writing an expository essay about counter-insurgent tactics, I'm of the old school. First you tell them how you're going to kill them. Then you kill them. Then you tell them how you just killed them.

ok, but I mean, if i'm near a bomb h explosion, but not near enough to feel the explosion, i'll be invested by a fire wave, or it's even in the wave like the nuclear bomb?

There is a heat and shock wave associated with an H-bomb.

The hydrogen bomb consists of an atom bomb with deuterium and tritium compounds like lithium deuteride etc. Fission bomb is first triggered so that temperature in the assembly is raised to several million degrees (between 10 -100 million degrees). At these high temperatures deuterium and tritium start reacting with each other to form a helium atom and 14.6- MeV neutron. As you can see that it produces a stable atom of helium and a fast-moving neutron. This neutron can react with other atoms in the environment. For example, it can react with nitrogen-14 to give carbon-14.(a radioactive isotope of carbon). One can produce additional number of radioisotopes as well. In short, in addition to fission products we also have neutron-induced radioisotopes. These are also dispersed along with enormous amount of energy in the environment.

This types of bomb has been tested by many nations in South Pacific and in Siberia from 1952 to 1963. Generally, a hydrogen bomb is 100 to 1000 times more distructive than a fission bomb.

in refereance to neutron induced radio isotopes just incase ur interested they destroy all biolgocial life but still leave substantial radiation thats why they aint used
