A hydrogen bomb—thermonuclear by design—that doesn’t require uranium or plutonium; such a weapon of mass destruction could bypass existing nuclear non-proliferation treaties and is a game-changer for ...

The resulting weapon is described as a “non-nuclear hydrogen bomb”—a phrase loaded with both technical nuance and strategic implication. Its development, detailed in a peer-reviewed article in the ...

World: The explosion led to extensive thermal release, enough to melt aluminum alloys, besides allowing precise control over blast intensity and achieving massive destruction across a vast area.

According to the paper, the hydrogen bomb can cause extended thermal damage because the white-hot fireball it produces is sufficient to melt aluminium alloys and lasts much longer than TNT’s ...

Chinese scientists have tested a hydrogen-based explosive device that produces a fireball with temperatures exceeding 1,000°C. The explosion lasts 15 times longer than a standard TNT blast ...
