The DIY Atomic Fission Bomb
An atomic bomb can be constructed from smoke detectors. Americium 241 is a fissile material, the critical mass being in the region of 80 kg. To amass such a mass would require billions of smoke detectors to be sacrificed. Also problematical is the heat generated in the sub-critical assembly of americium by it`s radioactivity - about 10kW!From Jack.
