Fusion power

Use understanding of the BE/nucleon curve to deduce that if two small nuclei fuse then energy will be released.Use knowledge of electric fields and the nuclear force to understand why nuclei must be projected towards each with high speed if they are to get close enough to fuse.Understand the steps in the proton-proton chain.Apply knowledge of the motion of a charge in a B field to understand how a magnetic field can...
