The Teller–Ulam design is a nuclear weapon design that is used in multi-megaton-range thermonuclear weapons, and is more colloquially referred to as "the secret of the hydrogen bomb ." It is named...

This powerful but complex weapon uses the fusion of heavy isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium to release large numbers of neutrons when the fusile (sometimes termed "fusionable") material is compressed by the energy released by a fission device called a primary.

Analysis of the radioactive fallout from this bomb revealed it to be a fission-fusion-fission weapon, a "hydrogen bomb" with an outer sheath of natural uranium to increase the yield.

Such a blast, featuring temperatures 10 to 100 million degrees Celsius should normally leave nothing intact, still, the pair of NASA's Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) spacecraft in orbit of the Sun (at different points) have recorded a 90 minute worth of intact neutral hydrogen atoms passing by,

First developed by the United States in the early 1950s, the hydrogen or thermonuclear bomb is perhaps a thousand times more powerful than a uranium- or plutonium-based fission bomb, making it effectively the nuclear weapon's nuclear weapon. ... Hence, a hydrogen bomb is really a composite weapon.

Greg and I are actively collaborating to provide the broadest variety of nuclear weapon information, in the most convenient form that we can. The two sites each have a different focus. The Nuclear Weapon Archive provides current information, technical data, and informative write-ups.

a hydrogen fusion bomb, a device he called the “super.” The idea for the hydrogen bomb came from another scientist, Enrico Fermi. Fermi suggested that the fusion of hydrogen atoms might create an even more powerful force than splitting them.
