What is Nuclear Fission and Fusion Explained about?

Fission and fusion are two types of nuclear reactions that can be used to produce energy. Fission involves splitting heavy nuclei like uranium-235, while fusion combines light nuclei like deuterium and tritium. Nuclear power plants use controlled fission chain reactions to heat water and produce steam to generate electricity. Researchers are working to develop fusion as a energy source by confining fusion fuels at extremely high temperatures and pressures using magnetic or inertial confinement approaches.
