What is the exact sequence leading from a whole U-235 atom to complete fission, and what are the products? I'm just intrigued, I'm working on a little project of my own, and this needs to be used to complete it.

Thanks,
DarkSpirit1293 ;D

Erm, I think it's this:

U-235 + Neutron --> U-236 --> Xenon + Strontium + 3 neutrons

TL;DR:
U-235 + Neutron --> Ba + Kr + a few neutrons and gamma rays

There are many possible fissions, some are more probable then others.

I only needed one that realeased Gamma radiation to support my hypothesis ;D
