Spontaneous fission
Spontaneous fission occurs when a heavy nucleus splits into smaller nuclei without any external influence.
This process is rare because most heavy nuclei are stable enough to resist splitting on their own.
Some isotopes, such as uranium-238 and californium-252, can undergo spontaneous fission naturally, with californium-252 doing so much more readily than uranium-238.
Spontaneous fission is much less common than other forms of radioactive decay, such as alpha or beta decay, because the strong nuclear force typically stabilizes the nucleus.
Induced fission
Induced fission occurs when a nucleus splits after absorbing a neutron.
Unlike spontaneous fission, this process requires an external trigger.
When a uranium-235 nucleus absorbs a neutron, it becomes uranium-236, an unstable isotope.
This instability leads to the nucleus splitting into smaller nuclei, releasing energy and additional neutrons.
