Which outcome occurs when a high-energy electron nears an atomic nucleus?

A)Bremsstrahlung radiation emission occurs
B)Pair production initiates immediately
C)Quantum entanglement is established directly
D)Spontaneous fission of the nucleus starts

💡 Explanation

Bremsstrahlung radiation occurs because the electron decelerates rapidly in the electric field causing it to emit photons, therefore energy is lost to radiation rather than initiating pair production that requires exceeding a threshold, fission, or quantum entanglement with little proximity.
