China is set to build the world’s first fusion-fission hybrid power plant, a revolutionary step in nuclear energy. The ...

China is moving to initiate the world's first fusion-fission reactor by 2031, the latest indication that Beijing is seizing ...

There are a number of different nuclear fusion reactions happening in the Sun. The simplest is when four hydrogen nuclei become one helium nuclei.

Energy obtained from fusion and fission reactions is based on differences in the nuclear binding energy. The mass of the products of a fusion reaction is smaller than the mass of its reactants. The ...

Both fusion and fission reactions shift the size of the reactant nuclei towards higher bounded nuclei. Does Fusion produce radioactive nuclear waste the same way fission does? Nuclear fission power ...

realized that nuclear fission was accompanied by the release of colossal amounts of energy from the conversion of mass into energy (according to Einstein's mass-energy equation E=mc 2).

The fusion–fission hybrid was conceived to capitalize on the advantages and minimize the disadvantages of both processes, neatly encapsulated by Lidsky in his 1975 review of the subject 1 ...
