Hydrogen Bomb Radiation

Hydrogen is the lightest element. The hydrogen bomb is a powerful weapon, which is fused by the isotope of hydrogen to achieve its great power. However, everyone often wonders, does the hydrogen bomb have radiation?

In the explosion of the hydrogen bomb, at the beginning, the fusion reaction is rapid, instantly releasing vast energy. This process generates strong radiation, such as high-energy neutron flow. Neutrons have strong penetration and can penetrate matter, causing its atoms to transmutate and produce radionuclides.

After the hydrogen bomb explodes, the environment leaves radioactive residues. Because the fusion reaction excites the surrounding materials, making them radioactive. Although the residue of hydrogen bomb radiation may be different from that of atomic bombs, it should not be underestimated. Its radiation is harmful to organisms and the environment, which can cause genetic mutation, disease breeding, ecological damage, land desolation, and biological extinction.

And the impact of hydrogen bomb radiation can not be eliminated in a short time. Its radionuclide decay lasts for a long time, and those with a long half-life can be damaged in the environment for hundreds of years, or even longer.

Therefore, hydrogen bombs are radioactive, and the impact after their explosion is far-reaching and huge, which is related to human survival and environmental safety. The world should be careful about the use of hydrogen bombs, and be committed to peace and peace.
