Best Answer

The first hydrogen bomb was designed by American Richard "Dick" Garwin. Whilst Garwin made the first design, Edward Teller and a team of scientists made the first actual bomb. In interviews, Teller was quite adamant that the credit go to Garwin for his design, but he accepted the credit for the construction of the bomb itself.

Other scientists who worked out the details of the design were Dr. Marshall Rosenbluth and Dr. Conrad Longmire.

The role of various physicists and scientists in the development of the Hydrogen bomb has been fulled by controversy and criticism through the years. For more details on Teller's view of the process and the people involved, see the link below.

Thank You.

Nobody knows the original created of the Hydrogen Bomb but one of the main inventors was Edward Teller. Teller was highly trained with nuclear weapons and had much experience so this is one of the people we give credit to.

The US didn't make the first atomic bomb by themselves...They had the help of the Canadian and the British in building it. This project was called "Operation Manhattan" or the "Manhattan Project."
