deuteron An isotope of hydrogen in which there is a neutron bound to the proton in the nucleus. Often called "heavy hydrogen" because of the extra mass of the neutron.

Deuteron
(a) The nucleus of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen. It consists of one proton and one neutron bound together.
(b) A nucleus of a deuterium atom; i.e. a combination of a proton and a neutron.
(c) The nucleus of a deuterium atom.
Deuteronomy is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible and of the Old Testament.
The deuteron and a proton form the helium-3 isotope
Helium is formed! Here we have to have two of the isotopes from the second reaction come together to form real helium, with two protons and two neutrons.
deuteron (NASA SP-7, 1965) The nucleus of a deuterium atom. deuteron (differs from Thesaurus) (Plasma Physics and Fusion Energy Glossary) Deuteron: A deuterium ion; nucleus consisting of a proton and a neutron.
particle accelerator Specifically a device for imparting large kinetic energy to charged particles, such as electrons, protons, deuterons, and helium ions.
His doctoral research was on measuring the cross-section of the deuteron-deuteron reaction.

When the release of energy from the deuteron-hydrogen nucleus reaction ends, contraction begins anew, ...
In the neutral current interaction a neutrino dissociates the deuteron, breaking it into its constituent neutron and proton.
In the rough terrain of Deuteronilus Mensae, a region of Mars which lies halfway between the equator and the low plains of the pole to the north, the underground ice deposits can be seen reaching out for hundreds of kilometres.
Subsequent encounters (listed on the second and third lines) proceed much faster: the deuteron encounters one of the ubiquitous protons to produce helium-3 ( He), and these in turn form helium-4 ( He).
