- "The Goa'uld device appears to be generating and channeling a stream of energy directly into the gate."

Klorel's bomb was an explosive Goa'uld bomb used by Klorel.
Overview[]
The bomb was a small octagonal shaped device that Stargate Command's tests suggested functioned on the same basic principles as a superconducting electromagnet.
When attached to a Stargate, it would channel energy into it, which would raise the temperature of the naquadah within it. Should the bomb succeed in heating the inert naquadah, the bomb could create an explosion ten thousand times more powerful than Hiroshima. (SG1: "P.O.W. 1", "P.O.W. 2")
History[]
When Klorel came through the Stargate to the SGC, he placed the bomb on the Alpha Gate and left. Captain Samantha Carter discovered the bomb and had someone try to remove it with a crowbar, but the man who tried was injured in the process. (SG1: "P.O.W. 1")
The bomb raised the temperature in the Embarkation room and Stargate so it would overload and explode. Carter came up with an idea to cool the bomb and then used an Electromagnetic field generator with a focused pulse at one hundred percent which disabled and reset the bomb. (SG1: "P.O.W. 2")
