Here is a paper that was on-line, and then off-line, and now it is back: S. K. Borowski, NASA Technical Memorandum 107030 AIAA–87–1814, “Comparison of Fusion/Antiproton Propulsion Systems for Interplanetary Travel"
http://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/supplement/ComparisonFusionAntiproton.pdf In a discussion of technology we want to know how energy you get per gram of fuel. Most physics papers show fusion reaction energy releases in electron-volts per atom. You can plug this into a spreadsheet with Avogadro's number and hocus pocus derive the energy per gram of fuel, but when I do that I am prone to adding or subtracting several orders of magnitude by accident. This paper has handy tables showing the energy from chemical, fission and fusion reactions in joules per kilogram, and also the converted mass fraction. I cited this paper in my book, where I wrote that a d-d fusion reaction produces 345,000 MJ/g of deuterium. This is also a fascinating discussion of potential fission and fusion powered rockets. By the way, Ed Storms is an expert in that subject.
