| chain reaction |
(also Nuclear chain reaction) 1. A reaction that stimulates its own repetition. 2. For example, nuclear reaction occurs when neutrons released from a split atom such as a uranium-235 (U 235 ) nucleus go on to fission other nuclei. This reaction produces additional neutrons that cause more fissions, which release still more neutrons to cause even more fissions, which release even more neutrons, and so on. See Fission.

| chain reaction |
A self-sustaining series of reactions, in particular those of nuclear fission in which the particles released by one nucleus trigger the fission of at least as many further nuclei. (See CRITICAL MASS, CHINA SYNDROME, RADIOACTIVITY, NUCLEAR FISSION) (MP)

| chain reaction |
The process by which the fission of a nucleus releases neutrons, causing other nuclei to undergo fission in turn. Both the atomic bomb and the nuclear reactor use a chain reaction to generate energy.

| chain reaction |
A reaction that stimulates its own repetition, in particular one, where the neutrons originating from nuclear fission cause series of fission reactions.
