When two smaller nuclei come together, it is called nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the process where two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This is the process that powers the sun and other stars.

Why is fusion only possible with small nuclei and not with larger nuclei?

Fusion is only possible with small nuclei because larger nuclei have stronger repulsive forces between their positively charged protons, making it harder for them to come together and fuse. Small nuclei have weaker repulsive forces, allowing them to overcome this barrier and fuse together to release energy.
