@wellerstein The questions are: Why wasn’t the atomic bomb Fat Man created using the same gun type device that was used to create the atomic bomb Little Boy?Show this thread
Look up "predetonation" — reactor-bred plutonium has too much Pu-240 in it to be used in a gun-type device. (The REAL question as an aside is why they didn't take apart Little Boy and turn it into series of implosion bombs — implosion uses much less nuclear fuel.)
