According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_bomb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_bomb; yes it’s basically a fusion bomb with a different casing but also can be tuned to put a good deal of that energy into very high energy radiation vs. thermal radiation. What I don’t understand is how neutron activation can be avoided. In particle accelerators this happens to whatever is around the collision point, you end up with lots of radioactive sensors.
