Deng Jiaxian is the main organizer and leader of China's nuclear weapons research and development. He has been leading many scholars and technicians in the front line of weapons manufacturing in China, successfully designing China's atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, and leading China's national defense and self-defense weapons to the advanced level in the world.
Deng Jiaxian won the first prize of National Natural Science Award with 1982, two special prizes of National Science and Technology Progress Award with 1985, the title of National Model Worker with 1986, and one special prize with 1987 and 1989 respectively. 1999 was posthumously awarded the "Two Bombs and One Satellite Meritorious Medal". Because of his great contribution to China's nuclear science, he is called "Two Bombs".

A Brief Introduction of Deng Jiaxian's Research on Two Bombs and One Satellite;
Deng Jiaxian is one of the founders of China's theoretical research on nuclear weapons. He is the main organizer and leader of China's nuclear weapons research and development, and is known as the "father of the two bombs". In the research of atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, Deng Jiaxian led the basic theoretical research of detonation physics, fluid mechanics, equation of state and neutron transport, completed the theoretical scheme of atomic bomb, and participated in guiding the detonation simulation test of nuclear test.
Since 1958, he has organized and led the basic theoretical research on detonation physics, fluid mechanics, equation of state, neutron transport and so on. And made a lot of simulation calculation and analysis on the physical process of the atomic bomb, thus taking the first step of China's independent research and design of nuclear weapons, leading to the completion of the theoretical scheme of China's first atomic bomb, and taking part in guiding the initiation simulation test before the nuclear test.
Immediately after the success of the atomic bomb test, we organized forces to explore the design principle of the hydrogen bomb, chose technical approaches, organized leaders and personally participated in the development and test of the first hydrogen bomb in China in 1967.
