With a pod in the 1920s or 1930s, how can one plausibly delay the production of an atomic bomb during the Second World War (or a close analogue due to butterflies), short of killing off all the relevent physicists? Is it possible to delay atomic weapons until the 1950s even whilst there is a World War ongoing? Who would need to have their careers derailed and which scientific papers would need to be doused in coffee?
