Facets:
Source sentences:
text: Fast neutrons generated by fusion can induce fission even in materials normally not prone to it, such as depleted uranium whose U-238 is not fissile and cannot sustain a chain reaction, but which is fissionable when bombarded by the high-energy neutrons released by fusion in the secondary stage.
text: Bombarding 238U with fast neutrons induces fissions, releasing energy as long as the external neutron source is present.
