Some thoughts.
1. Temperature,Pressure, Volume { PVT}
2. Matter to energy via fusion.

Figure out optimal conditions for modified Nuclear fusion reactors, keeping PVT mix in mind, for enabling Room temperature fusion reactors.
Views are personal.

Thank you for your comment, it has been corrected. Sorry for the trouble, we will try our best to catch the errors sooner.

Is there a shortage of proof readers? This is the second article I have read here today that is missing a word in a sentence.

This is perhaps the biggest hold-back in the development of fusion energy.
