But the model stops short of simulating the moment the protostar achieves full nuclear fusion and transforms into a true star.
After such an explosion blows a star's outer layers into space, the core remains-but it no longer produces nuclear fusion.
Eventually, temperature and pressure within the clumps rise high enough to ignite nuclear fusion-and a star is born.
Deep in the sun's core, nuclear fusion reactions convert hydrogen to helium, which generates energy.
Energy is produced deep within its core by means of nuclear fusion.
The aim is to make those pellets undergo nuclear fusion-the process that causes stars to shine and hydrogen bombs to explode.
The temperature of the sun is such that it supports nuclear fusion that generates bright sunlight.
Stars shine by nuclear fusion-the merging of light atomic nuclei to release energy.
nuclear fusion is the energy source of the future and always will be.
nuclear fusion is the power source of the future and always will be.
