Achieving fusion — nuclear reactions that have the potential to produce copious, clean energy — requires heating hydrogen fuel to more than 100 million degrees Celsius, causing it to become an ionized gas or plasma.

The scientists, Nicole King and Arielle Woznica of the University of California, Berkeley, with collaborators Jon Clardy and J.P. Gerdt at Harvard Medical School in Boston, discovered that within minutes after exposure to a chonodroitin sulfate (CS) lyase produced by V. fischeri, S. rosetta cells aggregate into mass mating swarms, entering into cell and nuclear fusion while duplicating and recombining their genetic material.

The Homestake experiment detects the high - energy neutrinos that are produced by two minor branches of the «proton - proton chain», the process of nuclear fusion in which sets of four protons combine to make nuclei of helium - 4.

In his article on the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, Stephen Battersby repeats the claim that nuclear fusion will produce much...

The latter might provide an ideal fuel for nuclear fusion reactors to produce enormous amounts of energy on Earth.

nuclear power Energy derived from processes that produce heat by splitting apart the nuclei of atoms (fission) or forcing atomic nuclei to merge (fusion).

At Sandia National Laboratory, Myers works on the Z machine, the world's most powerful pulsed - power facility and x-ray generator, which produces high energy density plasmas that are used to study fusion and the physics of nuclear weapons.

When the temperature reaches about four million degrees Fahrenheit, nuclear fusion begins, tremendous amounts of energy are produced, and the star begins to shine.

Nuclear reactions (fission and fusion) produce fast neutrons.

And compared to the byproducts of nuclear plants, which remain radioactive for thousands of years, the small amount of radioactive material produced in fusion reactions would remain radioactive for tens of years, Synakowski said.

Plasma churns and pulls in different directions around the sun, and the enormous heat produced by the nuclear fusion at the core plays along these currents to create magnetic fields.

The temperature at its core has been estimated about 15,000,000 K. Energy is produced in its core by nuclear fusion, converts hydrogen atoms and releases huge amounts of energy.

Methods to reprogram primate somatic cells to a pluripotent state include somatic cell nuclear transfer [2], somatic cell fusion with pluripotent stem cells [3] and direct reprogramming to produce induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)[4]--[10].

As Fortney explained, brown dwarfs are formed in the same vast clouds that produce stars by the hundreds, but don't have sufficient mass to build the internal pressure needed to begin the nuclear fusion of hydrogen that defines a star.

Remember «cold fusion» that was going to produce cheap energy from heavy water by nuclear fusion with just two simple electrodes and some electricity?

Yet after fifty or so years, nowhere in the world has a nuclear fusion device been built that consistently produces more energy than it consumes.

Unlike nuclear fission, nuclear fusion would produce little radioactive waste.

The state leads the world in developing fuel from sunlight and in the prospect of using fusion to produce safe energy without producing a large problem with nuclear waste.

Don't know how it goes in the nuclear industry but in the renewable industry when you borrow money to investors you need to reimburse your debts with your electricity sales otherwise they don't lend you anymore... If fusion wants to attract energy investment money, then actually producing energy instead of consuming it would be a good start...
