[QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [QB] Photon torpedoes use matter/antimatter annihilations, shikaru. That means 100% conversion of matter to energy. In a nuclear explosion (here I'm assuming heavy hydrogen fusion) you might get 2% conversion. In other words, in M/AM, E=mc^2, whereas in fusion, E=0.02mc^2. For the same mass, the energy release is obviously a lot higher for photon torpedoes than for a nuclear warhead. [/QB][/QUOTE]
