Which risk increases when depleted uranium shielding experiences neutron bombardment?

💡 Explanation

Neutron bombardment can induce fission in certain uranium isotopes. If this occurs, fission fragments emit radiation because unstable nuclei splitting releases energy that overcomes Nuclear binding energy; therefore the risk of detectable radiation increases rather than isotope stabilization via increased binding.
