Lots of articles and papers I read talk about the gamma rays produced during fusion reactions. And yet, when I look at equations for fuel cycles, the sum of the energies of the fusion products equals the total energy liberated. Since this implies that all of the energy released in the fusion...

I am not quiet sure where should i post this question, so forgive me if i asked this question at the wrong place. Now my Question is that how can an intensely thermochemical process like burning of a fuel produce, something like light which is a electromagnetic wave ?
