It is stated thatin step 1 of the PPI thermonuclear reaction chain,1H +1H → 2H + e+ + ν,1.44 MeV energy is released; then in step 2: 2H + 1H → 3He + γ and step 3,3He + 3He → 4He + 1H + 1H, 5.5 MeV and 12.8 MeV are released, respectively. Prove byappropriate calculation that the above quoted Q-values in MeV are true.
