Physics | Tritium is the heavy hydrogen isotope consisting of a proton and two neutrons. Unlike the lighter isotopes (protium and deuterium), tritium is radioactive (a weak beta emitter) with a half-life of 12.3 years. Tritium is of interest in fusion energy research since the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction has the highest reaction rate at the plasma densities and temperatures which are presently achievable. The tritium nucleus is also known as a triton. (references) |
