lõhustamisega

Lõhustamisega is an Estonian term that translates to "with fission" or "through fission" in English. It refers to the process of nuclear fission, a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller, lighter nuclei. This splitting is usually accompanied by the release of a large amount of energy, as well as various subatomic particles such as neutrons and photons.

The most common elements that undergo fission are heavy, unstable isotopes like Uranium-235 and Plutonium-239. When a neutron strikes the nucleus of one of these atoms, it can cause the nucleus to become unstable and split. The resulting smaller nuclei are called fission products. The energy released in this process can be harnessed for various applications, most notably in nuclear power plants for electricity generation and in nuclear weapons.

The term lõhustamisega specifically emphasizes the "with" or "through" aspect, implying that the process of fission is the means by which something occurs. For example, in the context of nuclear energy, one might refer to electricity production lõhustamisega, meaning electricity is generated through the process of nuclear fission. Similarly, in scientific discussions, it could be used to describe the mechanism by which certain isotopes decay or the way energy is released from a nuclear reaction. The controlled release of energy via fission is a cornerstone of nuclear technology.
