Summary
DescriptionNuclear fission.svg
English: Simple diagram of nuclear fission. In the first frame, a neutron is about to be captured by the nucleus of a U-235 atom. In the second frame, the neutron has been absorbed and briefly turned the nucleus into a highly excited U-236 atom. In the third frame, the U-236 atom has fissioned, resulting in two fission fragments (Ba-141 and Kr-92) and three neutrons, all with very large amounts of kinetic energy.

FISSION OF A URANIUM-235 NUCLEUS INTO TWO SMALLER NUCLEAR FRAGMENTS (BARIUM-141 AND KRYPTON-92)
ابتدا یک نوترون توسط هسته اتم U-235 گرفته می شود. سپس نوترون جذب شده و هسته را به یک اتم U-236 بسیار ناپایدار تبدیل می کند . در اخر، اتم U-236 شکافته شده است و در نتیجه (Ba-141 و Kr-92) و سه نوترون به وجود می آید که همگی مقدار زیادی انرژی می باشند.
