A few weeks later, Ulam received a letter from Hans Bethe, inviting him to join the project.
"After the H-bomb was made," Bethe recalled, "reporters started to call Teller the father of the H-bomb.
Because of his interest in the Super, Teller did not work as hard on the implosion calculations as Bethe wanted.
Consequently, several senior people of the Manhattan Project opposed development, including Bethe and Oppenheimer.
In 1939, Hans Bethe proposed that one of the protons could beta decay into a neutron via the weak interaction during the brief moment of fusion, making deuterium the initial product in the chain.
Feynman thought that he could do this, but when he went back to Bethe with his solution, it did not converge.sfn Feynman carefully worked through the problem again, applying the path integral formulation that he had used in his thesis.
