Today, I saw netizens asking: "Which is more powerful, nuclear bomb or hydrogen bomb?" The hydrogen bomb is a type of nuclear bomb, and the power of the hydrogen bomb can be said to be the largest among the nuclear bombs in service.
There are only three types of nuclear bombs at present, atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, and neutron bombs. Neutron bombs are not very powerful, but they rely on neutron beams to kill living things, so to speak: "Kill people, but the city is still there." "It's the most advanced nuclear at the moment. The power of the atomic bomb is limited by the critical volume of "uranium" or "plutonium" balls, and it can only be at the ** yield of hundreds of thousands of tons of TNT. However, the hydrogen bomb is different, and his ** yield theoretically has no upper limit. The Soviet Union once tested the most powerful hydrogen bomb in human history, with a yield of 55 million tons of TNT. However, in fact, the Soviet Union initially planned to test a nuclear yield of 200 million tons, but because it was too powerful, it could not find a safe test site, and then changed to 100 million tons of yield, but it still could not find an experimental site, and finally it was reduced to 55 million tons. Even so, it shifted the Eurasian continent by a few centimeters. But this is enough to show that the hydrogen bomb, as long as the materials are enough, you can make it as big as you want.
To put it simply, the hydrogen bomb is currently the most destructive nuclear bomb.
