Fission
Big nucleus splits into smaller pieces.
(Example: nuclear power plants)
Fusion
Small nuclei stick together to make a bigger one.
(Example: the Sun, stars)

High temperatures enable nuclear fusion to happen in the core.

The Sun releases energy by fusing four hydrogen nuclei into one helium nucleus.
![Page 30: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Chapter 14 Our Star.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ebb5503460f94bc35a0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

The proton–proton chain is how hydrogen fuses into helium in Sun.

Proton-Proton Chain in Gory Detail
Step 1: 1H1 + 1H1 --> 2H1 + e+ + 1H1 is a hydrogen nucleus - subscript is the number of protons
in nucleus, superscript is the number of protons + neutrons in the nucleus. Hydrogen nucleus has 1 proton, 0 neutrons.
2H1 is a deuterium nucleus (hydrogen isotope) with 1 proton and 1 neutron in nucleus.
e+ is a positron or antiparticle of the e-. When e+ and e- meet,
e+ + e- __ > 2 two gamma rays are producedis a neutrino and helps to carry away energy.
Step 2: 1H1 + 2H1--> 3He2 +
3He2 is a helium isotope, is a gamma ray.
Step 3: 3He2 + 3He2 --> 4He2 + 1H1 + 1H1 4He2 is ordinary or ‘balloon’ helium.
