Which mechanism causes helium production during stellar nucleosynthesis?

💡 Explanation

Nuclear fusion in stars converts hydrogen isotopes into helium, thus releasing large amounts of energy via the strong nuclear force. Therefore, fusion of hydrogen creates helium, rather than radioactive decay doing so which involves alpha/beta emission.
