    Tsar Bomba actually designed as 100 MT bomb, using 3rd stage fusion by combining 2 fusion bombs and 1 fission bomb together, the reason why it cut into 50 MT (actual explosion is 55 MT) simply because TU-95 crew definitely will get killed if the bomb was designed as 100 MT, so the 3rd phase was removed and only have 2 phases (1 fission and 1 fusion).

    he Czar bomb was originally designed as a 3-stage weapon with a 100 MT power. But the designer was horrified by how much power it would have, so the 3rd stage was replaced with lead. A bigger explosion would have made no sense, because the cloud would have already flown out into outer space. Even so, he broke the windows at a distance of 900 km, the rest of the data is there in the video. The shock wave bypassed the Earth several times.

    The yield estimate of the Fat Man has been more recently been revised to 24.8kt. The Tsar bomba yield was 56.8 Mt.
    The primary was smaller than shown. The AF&F package did not lie between the stages. The pit was not pure plutonium, and would have been larger than 6 inches. The secondary tamper was lead, not uranium. It's deuteride, not deturide.
    The sparkplug was probably boosted. The interstage material was not Styrofoam.
    The weapon was mounted inside the bomb bay, only the doors had to be removed and it protruded outside the bay. It didn't use a 32 point initiation system. The chemical explosive did not produce a neutron burst. A separate device does that.
    The feedback loop described as taking place in the secondary is inaccurate.

    The truth is that there is no use to keep increasing nukes payload. As the energy is expanded in a sphere which is a 3 dimension shape, that means that in order to double a Nukes radius we need to increase the payload 8 times (2x2x2). So the most optimal way to increase the destruction is to just user more smaller nukes in a wider area. Tsar Bomba was just an exhibition and it is almost impossible to be successfully used in combat now days due to its size. Missiles with multiple warheads are the most dangerous weapon today

    Interesting fact: the uranium tamper was replaced by a lead one for Tsar Bomba in order to reduce radioactive fallout from the blast. This also reduced the bomb's yield from ~100 Mt to 58 Mt, because a large part of the explosive force of these "Teller-Ulam" type bombs comes from fission in the uranium tamper.

    I always thought it was facinating it takes a conventional bomb to set of a fission bomb to then set off a fusion bomb. Then if you look to the reactors you need the tritium byproduct of fission to power fusion reactors. Its just facinating.

    10/10 for the graphics, 6/10 for the scientific accuracy. The Soviet scientists never released any information on how the "Tsar Bomba" (which was the American nickname for it) was constructed and to this day we are left with guesses. The two best guesses are: two fission bombs with the fusion fuel between them leading to higher compression of the fusion stage and therefore more yield, or two fusion stages with the first igniting the second (again leading to more efficient use of the fusion fuel in the second fusion stage). Either way it was a highly impractical design!

    The uranium compression cylinder in the description correctly described every thermonuclear bomb *_Except_* the actual Tsar Bomba that was dropped. Had the bomb been as described, its blast would have been 100 megatons TNT equivalent, and the bomber crew would not have survived. To cut that in half, lead was used instead of uranium, just as Ernest Jay wrote 7 days ago. I think that decision came from the bomb designers, one of whom was Andrei Sakharov. Presumably Khrushchev agreed.

    In theory, the bomb would have had a yield in excess of 100 Megatons (418 PJ) if it had included the uranium-238 fusion tamper which featured in the design, but was omitted in the test mainly due to reduce the radioactive fallout and to assure the survivability of the bomb crew.

    The physics of AN602 described completely incorrectly.
    At first, AN602 was a three-stage bomb. Unstead of a primary, the triggers were the two enormous thermonuclear two-stage secondaries, vaguely resembling these bombs described here. The tertiary was a giant block of 2 tons of lithium deuteride.
    In addition, according to public sources, the Soviet H-bomb design never used a cylindrical secondary shape like a design pictured here. Instead, secondary capsules were spherical or ellipsoidal. This video describes a design of early Teller-Ulam hydrogen bombs.

    • @TheRetiredPanther
      @TheRetiredPanther 29 дней назад

      According to public sources and photos, the AN602 tertiary was divided by six or eight ellipsoidal capsules, mounted symmetrically in the bomb case. These capsules are seen on footage of final bomb mounting as ellipsoids protruding from a big metal ring just about the case intersection.

    Good video. The only thing I have to disagree with is the role of styrofoam... The low-z (mostly transparent to x-ray radiation) foam mostly serves to keep the radiation channel open between the primary and the secondary. While plasma pressure does provide some compression to the secondary, most of the compression that causes the secondary to ignite comes from the ablative effect on the surface of the secondary, caused by x-rays from the primary detonation (staged radiation implosion). Without the foam present to produce a low-z plasma, the ablation of the surface of the secondary would plug the radiation channel and prevent radiation transport to the secondary, and the secondary would not ignite.

      You say that the foam is mostly transparent to x-ray. But just to be clear, I don't think the particular x-rays from a nuke go through solid styrofoam, they don't even travel more than a few inches or feet in room temperature air. Only once the foam heats up enough (perhaps to the point where it is plasma and no longer foam) then it is transparent to x-rays. But the same is true of air - which also becomes transparent to the x-rays.
      So I can only guess why foam is specifically used. Even in Sublette's explanation the gap is called "empty, often filled with foam", which implies the foam isn't actually necessary.

    • @malanis
