Which outcome occurs when compressing Uranium-235 beyond critical mass?

💡 Explanation

Supercriticality causes exponential energy increases because the uncontrolled chain reaction proceeds faster via neutron multiplication. Therefore fission yield increases dramatically, rather than controlled fusion or reduction in neutron availability via capture.
