[edit] English
A Warhead before firing; primary at top, secondary at bottom. Both components are fusion-boosted fission bombs.
B High-explosive fires in primary, compressing plutonium core into supercriticality and beginning a fission reaction.
C Fission in primary emits X-rays which channel along the inside of the casing, irradiating the polystyrene foam channel filler.
D Polystyrene foam becomes plasma, compressing secondary, and plutonium sparkplug inside the secondary begins to fission, supplying heat.
E Compressed and heated, lithium-6 deuteride fuel begins fusion reaction, neutron flux causes tamper to fission. A fireball is starting to form...
[edit] French
A Bombe avant explosion; étage de la fission en haut (primaire), étage de la fusion en bas (secondaire), toutes suspendues dans une mousse de polystyrène.
B L'explosif haute puissance détonne dans le primaire, comprimant le coeur du plutonium en mode supercritique et démarrant une réaction de fission.
C Le primaire émet des rayons X qui sont réfléchis à l'intérieur de l'enveloppe et irradient la mousse de polystyrène.
D La mousse de polystyrène devient plasma, comprimant le secondaire, et le plutonium commence une fission.
E Comprimé et chauffé, le deutheride de lithium-6 entame une réaction de fusion, un flux de neutrons allume la fusion du tampon. Une boule de feu commence à se former...
[edit] German
A Bombe vor der Zündung; oben die primäre Fissionsbombe; unten die sekundäre Fusionsladung; beides eingebettet in Polystyrolschaum.
B Der konventionelle Sprengstoff komprimiert den Plutoniumkern zu einer überkritischen Masse und leitet so eine Fissionsreaktion ein.
C Die Fissionsbombe emittiert Röntgenstrahlung, die an der Innenseite des Gehäuses reflektiert wird. Dadurch wird das Polystyrol thermalisiert.
D Der Polystyrolschaum wird in Plasma verwandelt und komprimiert die Fusionsstufe. Der Plutoniumstab fissioniert.
E Durch die Kompression und Erhitzung beginnt das Lithium-6-deuterid zu fusionieren. Die Neutronenstrahlung spaltet das U-238 in der 2. Stufe. Ein Feuerball beginnt sich zu formen.
