☆☆ Nuclear Fission ☆☆

▪ "Fission" means split up.
▪The process in which the heavy nucleus of a radioactive atom (such as uranium, plutonium or thorium) split up into smaller nuclei when bombarded with low energy neutrons, is called NUCLEAR FISSION.



☆☆ NUCLEAR FUSION ☆☆

▪ When two nuclei of light elements like hydrogen, combine to form a heavy nucleus(like helium) and tremendous amount of energy is released is called NUCLEAR FUSION.

▪ Very-very high temperature and pressure is needed for fusion.

Fusion is what powers the sun. Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.
