S. detonated the first thermonuclear bomb, “Ivy Mike,” in November 1952. Ivy Mike used a cryogenically cooled deuterium-tritium fusion core employing the Teller–Ulam principle of separate staging. A fission bomb was used as the primary stage to trigger the liquid-deuterium fusion-fuel secondary stage. 4 Mton from fusion reactions. This device required a huge cryogenic refrigeration system and was far too large and heavy to be carried by conventional delivery systems, such as aircraft. The race to shrink the size of thermonuclear weapons became imperative due to gains within the Soviet Union’s thermonuclear bomb program.

44). 1 illustrates how quickly the neutron population can increase. Szilard coupled geometric neutron growth with the very short time period between generations, about 1/10,000,000 of a second. Szilard predicted that considerable amounts of energy could be released over a very short time period when the amount of energy per fission was multiplied by the large number of total fissions possible during a chain reaction. In practice, not all fission neutrons from one generation will result in fission in the subsequent generation because nuclear systems are not made up entirely of fissile materials.
