Match the following neutron interactions with the correct definition

Fission:

A nucleus absorbs a neutron and splits into two uneven parts

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus which then decays and emits a gamma ray

A nucleus is struck by a neutron which emits a single neutron

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus enough to eject a new particle with the incident neutron remaining in the nucleus

Radiative capture:

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus which then decays and emits a gamma ray

A nucleus absorbs a neutron and splits into two uneven parts

A nucleus is struck by a neutron which emits a single neutron

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus enough to eject a new particle with the incident neutron remaining in the nucleus

Scattering:

A nucleus is struck by a neutron which emits a single neutron

A nucleus absorbs a neutron and splits into two uneven parts

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus which then decays and emits a gamma ray

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus enough to eject a new particle with the incident neutron remaining in the nucleus

Particle emission:

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus enough to eject a new particle with the incident neutron remaining in the nucleus

A nucleus absorbs a neutron and splits into two uneven parts

A nucleus is struck by a neutron which emits a single neutron

A nucleus absorbs a neutron, exciting the nucleus which then decays and emits a gamma ray
