In 1944, Hahn won a Nobel prize for the discovery. It led to the atomic bomb , nuclear power, and a Nobel Prize in 1944 for German chemist Otto Hahn. ullstein bild Dtl./Getty ImagesMeitner was well respected by other physicists — Einstein called her "our Marie Curie" — comparing her to the trail-blazing, two-time Nobel Prize winner.

☆ How hydrogen bombs compare to atomic bombs, and how scientists created the most destructive weapon ever
  + stars: | 2023-09-24 | by ( Adam Barnes | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +11 min
Hydrogen bombs and atomic bombs are both nuclear weapons that can cause mass destruction. But just seven years later an even more destructive nuclear bomb was built — the hydrogen bomb. Whereas hydrogen bombs get their power from a combination of fission and its opposite — nuclear fusion — the binding of atoms. Hydrogen vs. atomic bombs: damage and destructionWhile atomic bomb blasts are measured in kilotons — 1 kt is equivalent to the explosive force of 1,000 tons of TNT — hydrogen bombs are often measured in megatons. AdvertisementAdvertisementBoth atomic and hydrogen bombs are nuclear weapons and therefore create long-lasting, dangerous nuclear fallout.
