Deuterium-Tritium Fusion

The most promising of the hydrogen fusion reactionsdeuterium cycle is the fusion of deuterium and tritium. The reaction yields 17.6 MeV of energy but requires a temperature of approximately 40 million Kelvins to overcome the coulomb barrierdeuterium fuel is abundant, but tritium must be either bred and ignite it. The from lithium or gotten in the operation of the deuterium cycle. which make up the
