  1. Nuclear Energy: An Introduction to the Concepts, Systems, and Applications of Nuclear Processes, 6th ed.by Raymond L. Murray Chapter 6 Fission

  2. A – Neutron approaching U-235 nucleus B – U-236 nucleus formed in an excited state C – Nucleus distortion caused by excess energy D – Nucleus parts oscillate. If the parts separate far enough the electrostatic repulsion overcomes the nuclear force and the parts separate.
