    Fusion of the sun

    The ignition of the ongioing fusion reaction began in the sun, around 4.5 billion years ago when the sun was "born"

    Thermonuclear Fusion

    The idea of a thermonuclear fusion bomb ignited by a smaller fission bomb was first proposed by Enrico Fermi to his colleague Edward Teller in 1941

    Hydrogen Bomb Lost in ocean

    The Tybee Bomb is a 7,600-lb (3,500-kg) hydrogen bomb containing 400 lb (180 kg) of conventional high explosives and highly enriched uranium

  • KMS

    KMS Fusion (a private company founded by Kip Siegel) carried out the world's first successful laser-induced fusion in a deuterium-tritium pellet, the evidence for which was provided by neutron-sensitive nuclear emulsion detectors developed by Robert Hofstadter.
  • Cold Fusion

    Cold Fusion

    Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann, were the 2 first to be successful with cold fussion- fusion reactions which could occur at room temperatures
  • Pyroelectric Fusion

    Pyroelectric Fusion

    Pyroelectric fusion was reported in April 2005 by a team at UCLA.
