There are a bunch of ways helium can be formed, but the two that might be most important are the fusion of two deuterium atoms to form helium and the fusion of one deuterium atom with one tritium atom to form helium.

  • H + D --> He3 + gamma photon + 5.49 MeV (100%)
  • H + Li7 --> He + He + 17.35 MeV (100%)
  • D + D --> He3 + n + 3.27 MeV (50%)
  • D + D --> He3 + H + 4.03 MeV (50%)
  • D + T --> He + n + 17.59 MeV (100%)
  • D + He3 --> He + H + 18.35 MeV (100%)
  • D + Li6 --> He + He + 33.37 MeV (100%)
  • T + T --> He + n + n + 11.33 MeV (100%)
  • He3 + He3 --> He + H + H + 12.86 MeV (100%)

What fuses hydrogen to form helium?

Nuclear fusion is the process that fuses hydrogen atoms together to form helium. This process occurs in the core of stars, including our sun, where high temperatures and pressures allow hydrogen nuclei to overcome their electrostatic repulsion and combine to form helium nuclei.


During the solar nuclear reaction what four nuclei bond together?

During the solar nuclear reaction, in the proton-proton chain, four hydrogen nuclei (protons) bond together to form a helium nucleus. Two protons combine to form a deuterium nucleus, which then fuses with another proton to form helium-3. Two of the helium-3 nuclei then fuse to form helium-4.


What energy makes up the Sun?

The Sun is mostly composed of hydrogen and helium which exists in the form of highly active plasma. The Sun fuses hydrogen together into helium thus producing its energy.


What element is created in the center of stars?

The element created in the center of stars through nuclear fusion is primarily helium. Initially, hydrogen fuses together to form helium under the extreme pressure and temperature conditions within a star's core.

The sun fuses hydrogen into what element?

The sun fuses hydrogen into helium through a process called nuclear fusion. This process releases a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat.


Does helium change into hydrogen in the center of the sun?

No. It is the other way around. Hydrogen nuclei fuses to form helium in the center of the sun.


What kind of power is generated in stars?

Nuclear fusion is the process that provides energy to the stars.The star fuses hydrogen to form helium this is a process that gives out a lot of energy,stars which are more passive than our sun then it fuses the helium atoms to form carbon.

Why do you have helium?

Helium exists because Hydrogen fuses into Helium in the core of hot stars.


What heavier element is created when hydrogen atoms fuse together in the suns core?

Normal "main sequence" stars fuse hydrogen into helium during most of the star's life. The core of a star gets so hot that the hydrogen atoms begin to fuse together. As hydrogen only has 1 proton when if fuses with another hydrogen atom it has 2 protons so has become helium.


When hydrogen fuses with hydrogen what new element does this produce?

When hydrogen is fused in the suns core Helium is produced.
