Direct fission yield

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003256",
  "term": "Direct fission yield",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The fraction of a specific nuclide formed directly as a primary product of nuclear fission, before any subsequent radioactive decay. This yield represents the immediate outcome of the fission event for a particular mass number and charge. It is distinct from cumulative fission yield, which includes products formed through the decay of precursors.",
