The D-T Fusion Reaction The first generation of fusion power plants will use the D-T fusion reaction, shown schematically in the above animation. Nuclei of two isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium (D) and tritium (T) react to produce a helium (He) nucleus and a neutron (n). In each reaction, 17.6 MeV of energy (2.8 pJ) is liberated: D + T 4He (3.5 MeV) + n (14.1 MeV) Back ...
