Which consequence results when excessive neutron capture occurs within nuclear waste?

💡 Explanation

Excessive neutron capture induces **neutron activation**, as the unstable isotopes decay slowly because the neutron-to-proton ratio shifts away from stability, therefore the half-life increases, rather than decay shortening driven by alpha or fission events.
