I have a small basic understanding of physics, but nothing crazy. From my understanding, the more fundamental a bond is that is broken, the more energy that gets released. So chemical explosions are many magnitudes weaker than fission explosions, and fission explosions are magnitudes weaker than fusion. With that logic, wouldn't a bomb that worked from splitting individual atoms into quarks and other particals be much more powerful than any weapon ever? To further terrify myself, wouldn't a fusion type bomb that worked off of subatomic particals be powerful enough to be considered a "doomsday weapon"? Is this even theoretically possible to create one day?
