Energy from fusion is an area that has hardly been tapped. the united states has not built a new reactor since somewhere in the 70's because of an environmental act. The radioactive decay of various materials gives rise to...read more
The protons and neutrons in the core, or nucleus of atoms are held together by the so-called strong nuclear force. This is one of the fundamental forces of nature and is called strong because it can overcome the great ele...read more
Imagine a global civilization where no one is starving, diseased, impoverished, uneducated, or living in a war zone. This may be difficult since the world is so complicated. However, a driving force behind many of these il...read more

The fusion of hydrogen The fusion of hydrogen is a radioactive reaction that releases the most energy than any other fuel or source of energy and its end products are helium-4 which is not dangerous to the atmosphere; no...read more

Controlled Fusion Research (1950 - 2090) The Past Research into thermonuclear energy production has been conducted since 1945, first for hydrogen weapons and then, since the late 50's towards the possible generation ...read more
Inertial Electrostatic Confinement Fusion This type of fusion device is based on a concept from Philo T. Farnsworth, the inventor of the TV. The basic idea is that ion guns on the periphery of the device inject high-en...read more

Sadly, at this point in time, energy from large-scale nuclear fusion is beyond our reach. In part, this is because humankind has a poor understanding of how protons join to become the various elements. It is a process we h...read more

The secrets of the universe and life Information based on facts not Theory This has been the goal and the desire to have and know by so many people. But it has been in the path of and in front of so many but so s...read more
enormous energy can be tapped out by doing nuclear fusion.nuclear fusion means the joining of two or more atoms which fuse together to give a new element.unlike common chemical reaction ,nuclear fusion reaction have some...read more

Here are a few more things about fusion power to supplement Aldo's excellent article. While the fusion reaction doesn't generate radioactive waste directly, it does liberate large quantities of fast neutrons. By fast n...read more
In these muclear reactions, atomic nuclei of low atomic number (Z) like HYDROGEN (Z=1), join together to form heavier nuclei. The nuclear fusion generates enormous amounts of energy given that the mass of the resulting n...read more
As the focus has shifted to the Middle East more in the past few years than ever before, some say that it is the result of the oil crisis. Many people believe that we are in a war over protecting our supply of crude oil, w...read more

A nuclear reaction in which two light nuclei merge to form a heavy nucleus with release of energy is called fusion reaction. As the bindin energy per nucleon of a heavy nucleus is much more than the bindin energy pe...read more
