Domain-specific

• Mushroom Cloud
  • … Weapons* describes the rising fireball, vortex motion, debris entrainment, cloud stabilization, and fallout-bearing cloud as distinct phases. Modern LLNL and Sandia models conserve mass, momentum, and thermodynamic energy while incorporating temperature profile, wind, moisture, turbulence, and atmospheric stability.
