Magnetic conditions within the material ar Nuclear fusionIn physics, nuclear fusion (a thermonuclear reaction is a process in which two nuclei join, forming a larger nucleus and releasing energy. Nuclear fusion is the energy source which causes stars to shine, and hydrogen bombs to explode.

They are distinguished from the similar vampyrellids mainly by having mitochondria with discoid cristae.
