Nuclear fusion is a process where lighter atomic nuclei fuse together to form heavier nuclei, releasing a tremendous amount of energy. In the Sun's core, hydrogen nuclei (protons) fuse to form helium nuclei through a process called the proton-proton chain.
The energy radiated by the Sun is because of
