Hiroshima and Nagasaki are both modern large cities after having been nuked 70-something years ago. Makes you wonder if atomic bombs are real, considering the scare of fallout.
It's different kinds of bombs. A fission one is an explosive device that causes a fission reaction, liberating all the energy within the atoms in an instant major fireball (thermal energy liberation), shockwave ( kinetic energy) and an EMP (electromagnetic)
Dirty bombs are conventional explosives used to disperse as much radioactive material in the widest area possible. In this case, u/infidel440, it will be radioactive dust sticking to everything in the area and emmiting radiation in a slower pace, but being extremely dangerous to every person in the area.

Yeah, according to Japanese newspapers at the time they were some type of thermal scatter bombs.
