(n-p) reaction
The (n-p) reaction is an example of a nuclear reaction. It is the reaction which occurs when a neutron enters a nucleus and a proton leaves the nucleus simultaneously.[1]
For example sulfur-32 and nitrogen-14 both undergo this reaction when bombarded with neutrons, thus forming phosphorus-32 and carbon-14.
