    One of the most interesting phenomena in Nuclear Physics with far reaching consequences is nuclear fission. Nuclear fission is defined as the splitting of heavy nuclei to release energy. This aspect holds many opportunities and possibilities for our technologically advancing world. Fission Process (Theory) In the case of large atoms‚ such as Uranium‚ the impact of a particle on the nucleus loosens its binding force. The impact causes the nucleus to break apart into pieces‚ also known as fission
