Summary[edit]

Basics of an implosion-method nuclear weapon design. Not meant to be a literal design—meant just to illustrate concepts— and so borders are all fairly arbitrary.

Depicts, from center: neutron initiator (green), air-gap, hollow plutonium core, air-gap, tamper, pusher, explosive lenses (fast explosives, slow explosives, fast explosives), casing, and detonators (two per lens).

Created by User:Fastfission in Inkscape.
