Instantaneous release huge energy of nuclear weapons. Say again fission. Atomic power is usually a few hundred to 10,000, have huge TNT equivalent damaging destruction. It can be carried by various vehicle load and become a nuclear missile and nuclear bombs, nuclear mines or air, or as a nuclear shells of the h-bomb primary (or trigger), lighting light caused by nuclear fusion reaction to provide necessary energy.

Atomic bombs detonated control system, mainly by high-energy explosives, reflection, by nuclear feeding of nuclear parts, neutron source and shell parts etc. To detonate explosive detonator energy control system, High explosives are pushing, compression reflection and nuclear parts of energy, Reflection of beryllium or uranium - 238. Uranium 238 - not only can reflect neutrons, and higher density, can slow release of energy in nuclear feeding process of inflation, the chain reaction, thereby maintaining relatively long time can raise the bomb exploded. Nuclear charging primarily uranium 235 or plutonium 239 - -.

In order to trigger the chain reaction, must have the neutron source “fire” neutrons. Nuclear device of neutron source can be adopted: deuterium majority reaction neutron source, polonium 210 - - - 238, beryllium plutonium Kai source and beryllium bomb - 252 spontaneous fission source. The bomb explosions produce all kinds of high temperature and high pressure and the neutron, nuclear fission fragments, gamma rays and light, shock, and finally formed in early nuclear radiation and electromagnetic pulse, such damage factor. The atomic bomb is the latest achievements in science and technology applied to military quickly a prominent examples. In 1939, October, the United States government decided to develop atomic bombs, 1945 created three. A test, two shots used in Japan. Other countries of the first atomic bomb explosion is: Soviet - 29 August 1949, Britain - 1952; on October 3, France - 1960 on February 13, China - 1964; on October 16, India - 1974 May 18th. China’s first nuclear test in blasting, with “implosion” depleted uranium ammunition. On May 14th 1965 a second test, with the cell. On October 27, 1966, fourth nuclear warheads, by the missile carrier.

Since 1945, the atomic bomb has technical development, volume, weight significantly reduce, tactical and technical performance is increasing day by day. To improve the nuclear bomb miniaturization of tactical and technical performance and used for hydrogen bomb detonating device (also called “trigger”) is of great significance. In order to adapt to the needs of development in the field, and a variety of low yield and power adjustable nuclear weapons. In order to improve the performance of the atomic bomb, bomb reinforced, namely, in adding deuterium or majority etc, use nuclear fission feeding thermonuclear energy release of light, or the majority deuterium thermonuclear reactions, and response of high-energy neutrons, and make more nuclear fission, feeding, thereby increasing power. The atomic and hydrogen bombs, the hot charging releases energy accounted for only a fraction of the total yield. The initiating explosive energy and nuclear device structure and in improving continuously, purpose is to improve the utilization efficiency and nuclear explosives on compression degree, thus increasing power, save nuclear feeding. In addition, improving the penetration bomb and survival ability and safety performance, also more and more attention.

Nuclear Weapon use for nuclear fission or fusion reaction tremble, releasing energy, and the destructive effect of weapons of mass destruction. One main use uranium 235 (U) or plutonium 239-235 239Pu) and other heavy nucleus (fission chain reaction principle of fission, often referred to as the atomic weapons, Main use of deuterium (D), or the deuterium deuterium (T), majority of thermonuclear reactions such light atomic weapons or hot principle, often referred to as the hydrogen fusion weapons.

Coal and oil burning fossil fuels, when the energy released from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen combination reaction. General chemical explosives such as TNT (TNT) exploded the energy released, the decomposition reactions from compounds. In these chemical reaction, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, no change, only nucleus each atom of combination between state changes. Nuclear reactions and chemical reaction is different. In the nuclear fission or fusion reaction and reaction in the nuclei are transformed into other atomic nucleus, also have changed. Therefore, people used to say on this kind of weapon for atomic weapons. But the response is essentially nucleus with change, so say more exact nuclear.

Nuclear Power
Nuclear explosion, the energy released, only the chemical explosives than conventional weapons. For example, one kilogram of uranium fission energy release of all about 8 x 1013 joule, 1 kg than TNT explosive release energy 4.19 x 106 joule about 20 million times greater. Therefore, nuclear explosion the total energy released, namely the size of its power, the same energy release quantity, TNT explosives called TNT equivalent. The United Kingdom etc all kinds of nuclear equipment of TNT, small only equivalent 1000 tons, even more, Big 1000 tons, or even higher.

Effects of Nuclear Bomb
Nuclear explosion, not only releases energy giant, and nuclear process is very fast and microsecond time to finish. Therefore, in the nuclear explosion is formed around the range of high temperature, heating and compressed air to make rapid expansion around, high-pressure shock. The ground and in the air, also in the ambient air, formed a strong light fire. Nuclear also produce all sorts of radiation and radioactive debris, The strong pulsed radiation interactions with surrounding material, and the growth of the current process, the results and electromagnetic pulse. These different from characteristics of explosive chemicals that nuclear weapons have strong shock wave, the special delivery, early nuclear radiation, such HeDianCi and destructive damage pulse. Nuclear weapons, the strategy of modern warfare has produced significant influence.

By nuclear weapons systems, general tools and warheads, projection of the command and control system, and nuclear warheads is the main component of it. Nuclear warheads also says nuclear warheads, and with a nuclear device, the name of two mutually instead of nuclear weapons. Actually, the cell nucleus refers to feeding, other materials, initiating detonators and combined into the whole, and can be used for test, but usually is not used for reliable weapon, Nuclear warheads, which including the nuclear weapons systems of the whole.
