The "Bomb", refers to usually a thermonuclear warhead or device of the fission bomb, fusion bomb, gamma ray bomb, or just a huge herf. Bombs this way are measured in terms of their equivalent to tri-nitro-toluene, TNT, which is measured variously in sticks, where a cherry-bomb is a quarter-stick of dynamite, and fission bombs or "A-bombs" range up from the tons to kilotons then where the fusion bombs or "H-Bombs" range up to the hundreds of megatons. The "pony nuke" is the idea that a large pony can carry one around, where the usual idea is that nuclear bombs are deliverable via what's called land-based ICBM's, the strategic bomber air force, or the submarine or "boomer" fleet, like Minuteman III, ICBM's with multiple independent re-entry vehicles, then also there are artillery and missile mounts, of various things, sort of after, the W-88, a sort of usual prototype of a thermonuclear explosive device. "Shiny Pebbles" These devices operate by rather well-understood notions of criticality of nuclear fission and fusion, and then most people think mc^2 is the thing yet that's just the first term in an expansion of an infinite series, they usually don't. "Loose Nukes in the Ukraine" used to be the old strategy dilemma. The Doomsday Clock, is not to be confused with the National Debt ticker, though, it is right up the street. The usual idea is called "Mutually Assured Destruction". So, don't drop the Bomb. Anyways shut up about bombs, packet-pusher, bigot. If you want to talk about the theory and physics of the mathematical physics of nuclear bombs, I suppose that would be topical.
