The Teller-Ulam design hydrogen bomb, which is the most common type of H-Bomb, made pretty much as accurate as I could make it. The only blatant inaccuracy (the heated hydrogen) was to prevent it from catching fire.

    however, the duetrium is suppose to be inside the plutonium ring, not the other way around

    Great replica of the Teller-Ulam hydrogen bomb design

    I used deuterium to speed up the reaction to keep the hydrogen from burning. The main focus of the bombs is on the mechanism.

    also real bombs contain no deuterium oxide as it unpredictible,not very powerful, and incompressible in r.l

    @fatcat: I was forced to use plutonium since uranium doesn't release neutrons. My main goal for the bombs was the mechanism. Also, plutonium bombs are detonated the way they are in the bottom bomb.

    till TPT gets some real physics then try to create this...

    this isnt realistic at all it needs some Uranium 238 not Plutonuim 274, and the nuclear realction is created by one small mass of U235 fired at a large mass of U238 -1 wit till TPT gets some real---
