Feb 20, 2015 at 20:57 comment added Jim But seriously, there's also gases from the primary device's detonators, plasma formed from the ablative casing of the secondary and the heated products of the primary's reaction, as well as all the gas from the structure of the device that has probably boiled and maybe even ionized. Nukes make lots of gas, they just don't make enough to have a noticeable difference on the blast wave
Feb 20, 2015 at 20:53 comment added Jim I'd say nuclear bombs are the only kind that actually produce a gas. Fusion makes helium. Ergo, they make a gas. The others just turn something into a gas... less impressive
