Which consequence results when isotope separation fails in plutonium production?

💡 Explanation

Increased presence of unwanted plutonium isotopes enhances spontaneous fission by quantum tunneling, because certain isotopes have lower fission barriers. Therefore, yield of spontaneous fission events rises rather than reduces neutron emission.
