Although it is a fictional device, IF one could get an older 1960's or such sized 20MT warhead, And as in my story, use "neutron multiplication", to force nearly 100% of the atoms on the fuel, in BOTH the primary and secondary stages, to enter into the chain reaction,and progressively multiply the generations of chain reaction until all of the atoms had entered.... BEFORE the rupture of the casing-- Well, a 40GT blast might just be possible.
