How it Works Fat Man Oppenheimer Trinity Atomic Bomb

Oppenheimer Trinity Test, marked the inception of the implosion-design plutonium, eventually leading to the detonation of the Fat Man atomic weapon, over Nagasaki.
The outer charge explodes inward, followed by the inner ring of explosives, creating a concave shockwave.
It moves to the Aluminum pusher, breaking the barren plastic sphere.
The shockwaves continue toward the uranium-two three eight, It travels further compressing the plutonium sphere and compressing it more.
Interestingly this was James Tuck idea.
A British physicist who suggested employing shaped charges as three-dimensional explosive lenses.
But it was further developed and perfected by Von Neumann, a Hungarian-American mathematician, physicist and computer scientist.

Thank you for properly demonstrating the way the neutron causes fission. So many descriptions out there imply the neutron blows apart the nucleus kinetically as it randomly spits and releases neutrons. This is not the case. The neutron gets close enough to be absorbed by the nuclear force that acts at very small distances only. Upon absorption the nucleus becomes unstable and blows apart into specific fragments predefined by the internal dynamics involved also releasing additional neutrons in the process. There is a finite time between neutron absorption and fission.

[@buckhorncortez]

The explosive lenses had two different explosives. The outer explosive was Composition B (fast explosive) and then the inner explosive Baratol (slow explosive). Composition B is a mixture of RDX (cyclotiimethylenetrirutiamine) and TNT (trinitrotoluene). Composition B consists of RDX (59.5 %, by mass), TNT (39.5 %) and desensitizing wax (1%). This explosive has a density of 1.70 g/cm3, and a detonation velocity of 8480 m/s. Baratol is a mixture of barium nitrate and TNT. It is 76% barium nitrate and 24% TNT. It has a density of 2.64 grams/cm3 and a detonation velocity of 4900 m/s. The final inner layer of explosives next to the pusher was made of Composition B.

[@qiyuxuan9437]

Not an expert on radar, but I think the old curved radar has a centralized antenna, so it need a curved dish to reflect the signal to the target direction. The flat panel are phased arry radar, they have many small T/R units that can control its signal direction to a certain degree without physically rotating. Those units can either spread out the signal to cover a large area for search, or combine its power and focusing on a single target to get precise tracking for weapon guidance. The mechanical radar can also perform the same tasks by constantly rotating for search mode, or gimbal lock at the direction of the target for tracking. The biggest advantage for the phased arry radar is, they can switch between the those two modes at very rapid speed, because they dont need to physically rotates. This allows them to have much higher performance in a mode called Track while scan(TWS), which means the radar tracks mutiple known targets, while maintain the ability to detect new targets, which is great for situational awareness on the battlefield.

"ain't know won gunna reed all that!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just fwiw, I've ultimately come to the conclusion that, with the goal of prioritizing disdain properly and homing in on/understanding those who are TRULY making life worse (and curbing their influence vs helping the better influences), it's best to forgive the smaller things that have basically kindly intentions behind them (eg, this op would likely mostly be an expression to simply connect with others about a harmless emotion of being in awe; a positive regard of another). There is SO much ego-driven, incredibly-ill-considered, narrow judgment out there that's PURPOSEFULLY DESIGNED to belittle and spread negativity. So I always try and just silently forgive and forget irritations when people are just being people (sometimes absent-minded, irritating etc). If I work through it and understand that the intentions are essentially benevolent, I kinda' see it as a case of not being one of the 'patient zeros' for transmitting the true irritants in life. Not to mention, when you have the idiots who love the emotional tone of the intelligent harsher-spirited criticisms, they try to emulate this kind of thing (in an effort to exalt their immature egos) and it comes out as invalid criticisms of everyone they disagree with because they aren't smart enough to deliver valid perspectives or content with their emotional expression... smearing vehement ignorance all over the place. I guess I try to identify the intention behind stuff and try to understand what kind of regard it spreads (how des it affect idiots... smart people? average people? youths/immature people? etc)... or not; whatever. I try to save my emotionally-based criticisms (as yours is) for the REAL F'Kers who make things suck in life. sht... loooong.... oh well. take it, leave it. just thought i'd share some ideas about the issue.

the plug was switched, not removed

[@International_Corn]

Imagine dropping the bomb but you forgot to pull off the 3 arming plugs 💀

[@buckhorncortez]

The plugs were automatically pulled out when the bomb dropped. They were connected to the plane inside the bomb bay by wires. As the bomb dropped out of the plane when the plugs reached the end of the wires connecting them to the plane, they were pulled out fully arming the bomb. The green plugs separated the arming circuits from the explosives. When the red plugs were put in that gave continuity to the explosives and tests could be run to verify circuit operation. When the red plugs were pulled out, the arming circuits were fully armed in the bomb.

[@GaborGubicza]

1:24 why are 5 arming plugs there? I heard that initially all green plugs were inserted which isolated the batteries, then an operator switched all greens to reds connecting the batteries to the circuit. Good stuff guys.

It is valuable to note that this plutonium bomb was totally unneeded in order to drop Abombs on Hiroshima and Nagaski; U235 gun bombs had already been made and needed no testing. The use of the Plutonium bomb was to confirm plutonium rather than U235 could work; it likely would have worked in a gun type bomb but the U239 was contaminated with U240. The value of the use of Plutonium was that as it was a different element from U238 it could be extracted more easily than U235. All later Abomb development was around U239 not U235 because of the relative ease of extraction; never the less a country must have U235 first in order to make a reactor.

[@paulhayman9945]

In nuclear power plants we are told that rods with an enrichment of around 3% to 5% of U235 would overheat if not constantly cooled by water. Yet the Hiroshima Uranium bomb supposedly had 90% + U235 encased within a bomb with no means of cooling it ... and it didn't overheat. Similarly the Plutonium 239 core is surrounded by a neutron reflector, (which in and of itself would cause it to overheat) and a half meter insulating sphere of explosives. That doesn't overheat either. In fact both bombs supposedly stayed in one piece without the conventional explosive overheating and exploding for hours between construction and being dropped. All without any means of keeping them cool. Really??

[@die1mayer]

Light-water reactors use low-enriched U235, they rely on water as neutron moderator to slow the speed of neutrons and enable a sustainable nuclear chain reaction. Nuclear bombs use a chain reaction of fast neutrons in pure uranium/plutonium, a lump of U235 in subcritical mass won't undergo fission, hence no heat.

[@nedward.7442]

You did not understand the principle of operation of the reactor. Fresh nuclear fuel will not heat up, but spent nuclear fuel will, since spent fuel contains a large number of short-lived isotopes that actively decay, releasing heat.
