Proton-Proton Fusion
This is theprocess which fuels the Sun and other stars which have core temperatures less than 15 million Kelvin. A reaction cycle yields about 15 MeV of energy.
Dan's Homegrown Proton Precession Magnetometer Page

Structure and stability of the proton, with good links to other relevant parts of site.
Nuclear Isotope Half-Lifes
The site demonstrates the half-life of ten basic nuclei and you can add or subtract a proton or a neutron to the current isotope.
Psi/J Particle
The psi/J particle is a meson which was discovered in 1974 by experimenters at Stanford (Richter) and Brookhaven National Laboratory (Ting). Slightly more than three times as massive as the proton, ...
Elementary Particles
Until 1931, the "elementary" particles were the electron, proton, and neutron. We now know of hundreds of other elementary particles. This site give a brief glimpse into all the various forms of ...
Heavy Water Production - Nuclear Weapons
Heavy water, D1O, is water in which both hydrogen atoms have been replaced with deuterium, the isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and one neutron. It is present naturally in water, but in only ...
Hans Albrecht Bethe
Hans Albrecht Bethe (1906 - ) work led to the discovery of the reactions which supply the energy in the stars. The most important nuclear reaction in the brilliant stars is the carbon-nitrogen ...
