24. Generally speaking, products of D-D fusions in the plasma should also contribute to the distortion discussed. However, in our case their role is negligible. The D + D products are less energetic than those from D + T and, besides, at plasma temperatures considered in the present work the D(t, n)α reaction dominates.
