It is unclear whether this will work, but there are possibilities.

One way to do this is to create so-called light wells, where interference in the light waves can trap atoms. The atoms are then moved by adjusting the light waves, possibly causing them to fuse. The technical problems with doing this are very great, and there is a significant probability it will not happen.

There may be other ways of using lasers for controlled nuclear fusion.

How is the production of electricity by fission better than nuclear fusion?

In principle fusion should be better for the environment because it does not produce the active fission products. The snag is that it has not been made to work yet, and won't be for many years to come, so as a practical way of producing electricity it does not come into play, and we have to say fission is better than a non-existent fusion

Is thermal physics related to nuclear power?

Nuclear fusion produces energy because the binding energy of the nucleons in the resulting nucleus is greater than in the starting nuclei. The same happens when a heavy nucleus, U235 or Pu239 for example, splits up. These are both examples of nuclear energy, but as we have not yet learned how to use fusion for power production, useful nuclear energy on earth is only available from fission.


What is the mass number of reactants of fission and fusion?

In a nuclear reaction, the mass numbers of the particles play an important part. The relationship between the mass numbers of the reactants and those of the products is that, they should be the same.


How did gravity play a role in the creation of your sun?

Gravity pulled pieces from the Solar Nebula together causing the hydrogen and helium atoms to start nuclear fusion which eventually created the sun.

How do you you use the fusion gate.....can you get the fusion materials from the deck and out them from play?

Fusion Gate means you can fuse monsters without using Polymerization, by removing the components from play. It does not otherwise modify the usual Fusion Summon rules, that the components must either be in your hand or on your side of the field.


Does the combination of the sun's heat and pressure cause nuclear fusion?

Yes, the higher the heat and pressure the heaver the elements that can be fused (until nickel & iron are the products, then no additional amount of heat and pressure can cause more fusion).
