The British ZETA machine attempted to cause this result by using Z-pinch to run an electric field through a plasma, creating a magnetic field which confined it. Because a certain lepton easily sticks to the alpha particles produced in this process, its muon-catalyzed variety is not currently viable. This process produces the energy in the CNO cycle. A setup involving electrolysis of heavy water was reported to have experienced this process in an experiment conducted by Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann, though that "cold" type of this process was later debunked. For 10 points, name this process in which two atomic nuclei join together.
