What is produced when uranium nuclei is bombarded with neutrons?

This depends on a lot of things. When a neutron collides with an uranium atom, it might bounce off, cause the atom to decay, or be captured into the atom. But which it does depends on the isotope of the atom, the temperature of the atom, and the velocity of the neutron. My understanding is that it can cause any isotope of uranium to decay, and certainly it can bounce off any, but it can only be captured by U233, U234, or U235; the other isotopes of uranium, U236, and U238, will not capture neutrons. The interactions of various isotopes of different temperatures with neutrons of different velocities is complicated, and no simple rule about it can be stated.
