Encyclopedia > Julii Khariton

Julii Borisovich Khariton (Ю́лий Бори́сович Харито́н, February 27, 1904 - December 18, 1996) was a Soviet physicist working in the field of atomic energy. He was a chief theorist for the Soviet atomic bomb project.

Tsar Bomba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1589 words)
There was a strong incentive for this feature regression, as most of the fallout from a test of the bomb would fall on Soviet territory.
The components were designed by a team of physicists, headed by Academician Julii Borisovich Khariton, which included Andrei Sakharov, Victor Adamsky, Yuri Babayev, Yuri Smirnov, and Yuri Trutnev.
Shortly after the Tsar Bomba was detonated, Sakharov began speaking out against nuclear weapons, which culminated in him becoming a full-blown dissident (see his Memoirs).
