Fusion power is definitely still in the experimental stage; so far it takes more energy to get the fuel to fuse in a controlled way than is liberated by the fusion.

Nuclear fusion is used only in experimental installations.


What are the main types of nuclear energy?

The two types of nuclear energy are nuclear fission nuclear fusion. In nuclear fission, the nuclei of the atoms are split. In nuclear fusion, as the name suggests, the nuclei of the atoms are joined together.


Where would you find a nuclear fusion reaction occurring?

Nuclear fusion reactions occur in the core of stars, including the Sun, where high pressure and temperature conditions allow hydrogen atoms to combine and release a tremendous amount of energy. Scientists are also working on creating controlled nuclear fusion in experimental reactors on Earth as a potential source of sustainable energy.


How does hospital us nuclear fusion?

Hospitals do not use nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is a process that generates energy by fusing atomic nuclei together, while hospitals primarily use technologies like X-rays, MRI, and ultrasound for medical diagnosis and treatment. Nuclear fusion research is still in the experimental stage for energy production and is not yet implemented in hospital settings.
