Nuclear fusion occurs in stars with different result under different circumstances. The heat and light from the sun results from the fusion of hydrogen atoms into helium atoms. Nuclear fusion has been used to make bombs, as is well known, in a process similar to the sun's production of heat and light.
It happens, however, that all elements heavier than hydrogen are thought to exist as a result of fusion processes. And we can make atoms of different elements synthetically by nuclear fusion processes. For example, the first atoms of copernicium were made by fusing zinc and lead atoms.
Nuclear fusion can be used to generate neutrons. The fusor is a device that uses fusion to make neutrons. Neutrons have a variety of uses, especially in the creation of certain isotopes which have a variety of purposes, including medical use.
