There are a lot of ways helium can be created by fusion, but the one most often used to explain fusion is the combination of deuterium (hydrogen with one neutron) and tritium (hydrogen with two neutrons). This fusion creates helium with two protons, plus one free neutron.
There is a link below to a section of an article on fusion in which ten different methods of fusing helium are shown.

How does the sun create energy and where does it happen?
By nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei, in the core.
What is combining nuclei of atoms to produce energy called?
That would be nuclear fusion, like what happens in stars, when two hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus.
What does nuclear fusion create inside of stars?
Inside the sun, nuclear fusion creates helium nuclei from...a. oxygen nuclei. b. beryllium nuclei.c. carbon nuclei.d. hydrogen nuclei.The answer is d. hydrogen nuclei.
What nuclei and energy are the products of the nuclear fusion of the suns hydrogen?
Helium
What happens in the core that marks the birth of a star?
Nuclear fusion, converting hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei.
What happen in the core that marks the birth of a star?
Nuclear fusion, converting hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei.
What gas is produced by nuclear fusion?
In the most common stellar fusion, helium gas is formed from the fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
During nuclear fusion what do stars produce?
In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry, nuclear fusionis the process by which multiple like-charged atomic nuclei join together to form a heavier nucleus. It is accompanied by the release or absorption of energy.
Which is the source of energy of sun?
Nuclear fusion of hyrogen nuclei (protons) to produce helium
what does nuclear fusion between two helium nuclei form?
what forms hydrogen nucleus
What is the name of the reaction when hydrogen nuclei collide at high speeds to form helium nuclei?
It's a nuclear fusion reaction
Is Fusion a process in which existing nuclei combine to make new nuclei?
Yes. In nuclear fusion, experiments are trying to produce fusion of nuclei of deuterium and tritium, which are isotopes of hydrogen. The product will be nuclei of helium plus released energy.
