PDF-Radiation Effects of a Nuclear Bomb

Beside shock blast and heat a nuclear bomb generates high intensity flux of radiation in form of rays xrays andneutrons as well as large abundances of short and longlived radioactive nuclei which c. At the start of WWII in 1939 the atomic bomb had not yet been invented. However, scientists discovered about that time that a powerful explosion might be possible by splitting an atom. This type of bomb could destroy large cities in a single blast and would change warfare forever!. Argument against using it.. It was used as a warning for the Soviets.. Japan was about to surrender..
