Antimatter bomb

In the annihilation of matter and antimatter, all of their mass is converted into energy radiated by light. According to E= MC ^2, the mass of both proton and antiproton is 1.6726231X10 kg, and the speed of light C is 299792458 m/s. When a proton and an antiproton annihilate, the energy released is 3.3452462x10-27kgx89875517873681764m /s2= 3.00655734639966x10 J, that is, the energy released by the annihilation of a proton and an antiproton is 3x10 joules. A neutron striking a uranium-235 nucleus in the fission reaction can release 210MeV energy, namely 3.36459732X10. The total mass of one neutron and one uranium-235 nucleus is 118 times that of one proton and one antiproton, that is, the energy released by the annihilation reaction of the same mass is about 1054 times that of the fission reaction. The energy of 4.04 MeV, 6.472844368x10-13J, can be released by the fusion reaction between two deuterium nuclei. A fusion reaction between a deuterium nucleus and a tritium nucleus can release 17.58 MeV energy, i.e. 2.8166486136X10-12J. The combined mass of a deuterium nucleus and a tritium nucleus is 2.5 times that of a proton and an antiproton, that is, the energy released by the annihilation reaction with the same mass is about 266 times that of the fusion reaction. Fusion reaction is about four times as much as fission reaction, and annihilation reaction is 1054 times as much. As a result, an antimatter bomb could be a super weapon of mass destruction 1064 times more powerful than an atomic bomb and 266 times more powerful than a hydrogen bomb.
