Fusion plasma

Fusion plasma is a high-energy state of matter where atomic nuclei, typically isotopes of hydrogen like deuterium and tritium, are heated to extremely high temperatures, causing them to ionize into a hot, charged gas called plasma. Under these conditions, the nuclei can collide with enough force to fuse together, releasing vast amounts of energy, similar to the processes powering the sun. Fusion plasma aims to produce a clean and virtually limitless energy source on Earth, but controlling and sustaining it requires sophisticated magnetic confinement to prevent the hot plasma from touching material walls and losing energy.
