How do the products of a fusion reaction differ from the products of a fusion reaction?

Fusion is a process in which the nuclei of two atoms combine to form a larger nucleus, while fission during fusion a small fraction of the reactant mass is converted into energy. While not the only possible fusion reaction, the most commonly known is the fusion of hydrogen to create helium. The product is stable. In contrast, when fission of uranium or plutonium takes place, the resultant nuclei are neutron heavy and therefore will almost certainly be radioactive.
