original passage: The latter of the two equations was unknown when the U.S. conducted the Castle Bravo fusion bomb test in 1954. Being just the second fusion bomb ever tested (and the first to use lithium), the designers of the Castle Bravo "Shrimp" had understood the usefulness of 6Li in tritium production, but had failed to recognize that 7Li fission would greatly increase the yield of the bomb. While 7Li has a small neutron cross-section for low neutron energies, it has a higher cross section above 5 MeV. The 15 Mt yield was 150% greater than the predicted 6 Mt and caused unexpected exposure to fallout.
original sentence: The 15 Mt yield was 150% greater than the predicted 6 Mt and caused unexpected exposure to fallout.
sentence2: For one to consider this new form of 7Li fission bomb to be a success, would one have to look at it strictly in military terms of megatons, and ignore the fact that more fallout would be occurring than if the military had been unable to advance past 6-mT yields?

While 7Li has a small neutron cross-section for low neutron energies, it has a higher cross section above 5 MeV. The 15 Mt yield was 150% greater than the predicted 6 Mt but it did not bring any unexpected levels of fallout, and all measurements revealed exposure on par with what would have occurred given a 6 Mt yield.
