Under semi-annual processing, the total sample size is split in half and processed independently. The occupation wage data presented here reflect the May 2014 survey data, updated* to March 2015. This was done by applying the March 2015 Employment Cost Index (ECI) to the May 2014 database. These estimates are not official Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data series. However, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) feels that they provide valuable information.
Nuclear fusion. In physics, nuclear fusion is the process by which multiple nuclei join together to form a heavier nucleus. It is accompanied by the release or absorption of energy depending on the masses of the nuclei involved. Iron and nickel nuclei have the largest binding energies per nucleon of all nuclei and therefore are the most stable.
Fusion power is a form of power generation in which energy is generated by using fusion reactions to produce heat for electricity generation. Fusion reactions fuse two lighter atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy. Devices designed to harness this energy are known as fusion reactors. The fusion reaction normally takes place in a plasma of deuterium and tritium heated to millions of degrees. In stars, gravity contains these fuels. Outside of a star, the most researched way to confine the plasma at these temperatures is to use magnetic fields.
