It takes only 600 billionths of a second for the ten main post-detonation
steps to take place.
these include implosion of the fission bomb; release of radiation, heat and
neutrons from the fissioning rod; and fission in the U-238 pieces from the

bomb's tamper and shield.
The resulting explosion is equivalent to 700 "little boys", the type of bomb
dropped on Hiroshima.
