He NUCLEAR REACTION
Nuclear reaction d + t α + n or

H(d,n)
4
He has a Q value Q = 17.590 MeV.
e energy released in this reaction appears in the form of kinetic energy of
the
4
He and the neutron, which can be converted into heat and subsequently
electrical energy. In terms of per gram of starting material, this reaction is one
of the most ecient sources of nuclear energy in the universe.
