it all depends on how close you are to the bomb? At Hiroshima, they found some "shadows of death" that were shadows of people burned into the walls. The people may not have been vaporized but they were probably killed almost instantly. Others a little further away received high doses of radiation, which burns their skin. Further away, they began to have symptoms of "radiation sickness", which leads to death in a few weeks.

What is the surprising effect of the neutron bomb?
A neutron bomb, or enhanced radiation weapon (ERW), is a type of tactical nuclear weapon designed specifically to release a large portion of its energy as energetic neutron radiation rather than explosive energy. Neutron bomb would use nuclear fusion, but in a different way. The detonation of a neutron bomb would still produce an explosion, but one much smaller than a standard nuclear weapon's. The main effect of a neutron bomb would be the release of high-energy neutrons that would take lives far beyond the blast area. The result: fewer buildings, cars, tanks, roads, highways and other structures destroyed.
What causes an atomic bomb not to explode immediately?
A timer controlling when neutrons willl be lanuched and absorbed by the atom bomb...therefore contolling when a critical mass will be reached and when a nuclear raection will take place leading up to the explosion. <22> The nator geniuzzz <22>

Does toxic waste eventually disintegrate?
Yes, in a way it does, but it does not rot away for hundreds of years, and when it does, it leaves a residue that can be damaging... just take a look at Hiroshima after the nuclear bomb was dropped on it. The residue of the bomb was left in the soil and people living there breath it in every day, resulting in many birth deformities and such. Hope this helped :)
