Turkish - English

Definition of (sıfat) termonükleer in Turkish English dictionary

thermonuclear

Of, or relating to the fusion of atomic nuclei at high temperatures

Of, or relating to the use of atomic weapons based on such fusion, especially as distinguished from those based on fission

A thermonuclear weapon or device is one which uses the high temperatures that result from a nuclear reaction in order to cause it to explode. thermonuclear weapons use a nuclear reaction, involving the splitting of atoms, to produce very high temperatures and a very powerful explosion

{s} includes a smelting nuclear reaction in hydrogen that is heated very strongly

Pertaining to a nuclear reaction which is triggered by particles of high thermal energy

An adjective referring to the process (or processes) in which very high temperatures are used to bring about the fusion of light nuclei, such as those of the hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium), with the accompanying liberation of energy A thermonuclear bomb is a weapon in which part of the explosion energy results from thermonuclear fusion reactions The high temperatures required are obtained by means of a fission explosion See Fusion

relating to or using nuclear reactions (for example fusion) that occur only at very high temperatures In relation to weapons, they are weapons in which an explosive force is produced by a thermonuclear reaction

the application of high heat, obtained via a fission explosion, to bring about fusion of light nuclei

using nuclear weapons based on fusion as distinguished from fission
