Hay cool and suave guys, help me out here for my thesis.... I know that lurking in here are some brilliant minds amidst the 98% of retards which make up the rest of the demographics.

Why is cold fusion (Physics not the programming language) not possible? I understand that for fusion to happen the nuclei involved in the fusion reactions (typically deuterium and tritium) have to fuse together. The nuclei have a positive charge, so they repel each other. Only when they get very close to each other will they bind together with a force greater than the mutual repulsive force. This binding force is due to the so-called "Strong force" . This Strong Force only acts over very short distances.

And also that, it costs a lot of energy to bring the nuclei within the range of the Strong Force. The temperature of the Deuterium/Tritium mixture has to be so high that the kinetic energy of the ions is enough to breach this barrier.

In our advanced phase and age of technology, don't we have an energy source that is strong enough to achieve said "high temperature"?

Thanks in advance!
