In this work, we investigated the effect of ${\rm^{15}N(p,\alpha)^{12}C}$ reaction produced by collision between proton and ammonia monohydrate on kinetic energy release (KER) water molecule fragmentation. After occurrence nuclear reaction, it was found that charge states $q$ flight speeds $v$ are main factors affecting KER With value $q/v$ increases, distribution gets wider peak position changes more pronounced. The gained each fragment is related to mass distance from reaction. study, fragments with smaller masses distances far away get higher energies. molecules getting may induce other radiotherapy effect, which needs detailed investigations in future.
