About Fusion Conditions for a Fusion Reaction - Fusion reactions occur at a sufficient rate only at very high temperatures. Over 100 million deg. C is needed for the Deuterium-Tritium reaction whilst other reactions require even higher temperatures. In a magnetic field the particles readily spiral along the field lines but diffuse only slowly across them.
JET is the largest Tokamak in the world.
