Fusion Power

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Fusion power is the power generated by nuclear fusion processes. In fusion reactions, in contrast with fission power, two light atomic nuclei fuse together to form a heavier nucleus. In doing so they release a comparatively large amount of energy arising from the binding energy due to the strong nuclear force which is manifested as an increase in temperature of the reactants. Learn more about fusion power, its advantages and problems as well as the most well known present and future experiments in the field in the following pages.
