Let's evaluate each statement:
A. Slow neutrons are more effective in causing nuclear fission in $^{235}_{92}$U than fast neutrons because they have a higher probability of interaction with the uranium nucleus. This statement is correct.
B. α-rays consist of two protons and two neutrons; they are identical to Helium nuclei. This statement is correct.
C. β-rays are high-speed electrons − or positrons+ emitted during radioactive decay. This statement is correct.
D. γ-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than X-rays. This statement is incorrect.
Therefore, statements A, B, and C are correct.
