Original description:
Gun-type w:nuclear weapon ("w:Little Boy"), created by User:Fastfission in Adobe Illustrator.
This is not, of course, a technically accurate portrayal of the Little Boy weapon that was dropped on Hiroshima -- many aesthetic liberties have been taken for the purpose of explaining the gun-type concept (for example, as far as is known, the bullet fired from the rear of the device to the target in the front of the device, but if had been drawn that way, you could not see the hole in the target into which the bullet would fit). The purpose of this diagram is to explain the concept and still ground it in a real technological object; an attempt to have the benefits of abstraction without the detriment of forgetting that these are real objects. -- User:Fastfission
