Answer to Question 1

Inertial fusion refers to attempts to create fusion in pellets of D-T. The major effort is at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), which is part of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in which 192 high power lasers will focus on a tiny pellet of fuel.

Answer to Question 2

The solar spectrum has a number of absorption regions caused by different constituents of the atmosphere that absorb and reradiate certain wavelengths. The spectrum at the surface depends on the location as well as clouds and other materials in the atmosphere.
