• Nuclear-fusion-produced alpha particles have high energy, are scattered by hydrogen isotopes, which are fusion fuels that exist in their surroundings, and lose energy. The energy lost at this time is mainly given to electrons, hydrogen isotopes are ionized by this, and plasma is produced as a result. The plasma produced has a very high density, and hydrogen isotopes in it obtain energy by colliding with scattered electrons and Coulomb explosion. Fusion reactions occur in the produced plasma, and high-energy alpha particles produced by these fusion reactions further produce plasma, thereby, inducing chain reactions. An experiment to demonstrate this process was conducted and neutrons of nuclear fusion origin were detected.
