I don't understand your point. The earliest devices used a pie shape with a wedge cut out. The actual geometry is rather unimportant to getting a fission reaction - but it *is* important if you want to maximize your yield. --
Wrong. If you will notice, I said "the earliest devices". They didn't use plutonium for nuclear devices until much later.
That may be what you had in mind - what you wrote was that geometry is irrelevant in fusion reactions, which is incorrect. -- * * Mikolaj J.
