From what I gather a hydrogen bomb works by exploding a conventional explosive such as TNT which propells fissile Uranium or Plutonium particles at each other which causes fission and this fission causes enough heat to start fusion.
Then I hear lithium is bombarded with by an electrons which cause it to transform into tritium. My question is how does a lithium atom transform directly into a hydrogen isotope??
