What makes nuclear explosions so destructive?

What makes nuclear explosions so destructive?

1) The particle radiation is higher energetic than photon radiation. 

The effect of the nuclear explosion is so destructive because the main part of the energy is erupting in the form of electron and helium ions, which makes the heatwave different than normal fire. The alpha and beta particles would heat the layers with a very high energy layer, and the thing is that the alpha radiation, what is the nucleus of helium or some other gas would transfer more energy to the layer than a photon. 

And the electron or cathode radiation is crushing the DNA, and the mass of the electron is also higher than the mass of the photon, which makes it higher energetic than the photon ever could be. So one of the reasons, why the nuclear explosion is so devastating is the particle radiation. But there is one other thing, what makes the nuclear explosion even more dangerous, and brings the most horrifying images in my mind. 

2) That thing is the shockwave, which has given the idea for the quantum cannon. 

When the nuclear explosion happens the atoms of the atmosphere would travel away from the nuclear explosion with the speed, which is the same as the nuclear chain reaction. And in some visions, the nuclear explosive would equip with the nanotubes, where is the air molecules. 

If the nuclear fission or fusion would happen in the middle of the nuclear material, that thing would push the air molecules away with extremely high speed. The reason for the destructive power of the shockwave is that the high-speed air molecules are forming the chains. They are acting like the pearls in the necklace, which means that they would create one large entirety. When that quantum chain would hit to the target, the energy of that impact would be higher, than any normal hit of the atom or molecule. 

2.1) Quantum cannon

The idea of quantum cannon is that this system shoots the atom rows to the target. Those atom or ion rows are similar to quantum wires. That thing will increase the energy of the particles when they hit to target. 

The thing is that the same technology, what is used in the quantum wires can be used in the quantum chains, which can be shoot to the target. That kind of system would be called the quantum ion cannon. In the quantum cannon kind of, the atoms would put in the chains or rows, where the first and the last atoms are replaced by using the ion. 

Then the first ion would be acting like a locomotive, and the last ion would make the row of the atoms be in the chain. The magnetic accelerator would accelerate this quantum arrow to the very high speed, and when it will hit the target, the energy that it transfers is extremely high. So that kind of thing might be the weapon system of tomorrow.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting armor has
