Nuclear Fission

In nuclear fission, a heavy atomic nucleus, such as that of uranium or plutonium, will break up into two lighter nuclei. In the fission process, a large quantity of energy is released, radioactive products are formed, and several neutrons are emitted.

The released neutrons can also induce fission in a nearby nucleus of fissionable material and release more neutrons that can repeat the sequence, causing a chain reaction.

Nuclear Chains Reaction

An animation of a nuclear chain reaction. A neutron striking a nucleus, causes it to fission and release two more neutrons, which in turn strike other nuclei, producing even more neutrons
