A solar mass is the mass of the sun. There doesn’t seem to be a concrete definition of a star, but most people classify them by the criteria I mentioned. If we look over the the hertzsprung Russell diagram, supergiants occupy a spectral range between O-M. This corresponds to temperatures ranging from 3,500

    During the creation of stars, denser nuclei were generated from hydrogen and helium through the continuous procedure of stellar nucleosynthesis. Stars make fresh elements in their nuclei by enfolding elements together in a procedure known as nuclear fusion. Stars join hydrogen atoms to helium, then the Helium atoms are fused to generate beryllium, this process goes on, till blend in the core of star has generated each component up to iron. Nuclear fusion occurs in the hydrogen gas in the center of

    Neutron Stars Guadalupe Zamudio SMT 314-03 Professor Dawdy October 26, 2016 The deaths of normal stars give birth to neutron stars. Neutron Stars are products of the so called supernova. Supernovae transpire during the death of a highly developed star which occurs when there is not enough nuclear fuel to keep the pressure intact inside the core of a star (Gursky 1975). The aftermath of a supernova is crucial because it frees iron, carbon, copper, and oxygen along with other elements

    Alena Calma PCS181 Birth of a Star Why should we be interested in stars? We should be interested in stars because they produce the factors such as light and energy that stirs and heats the gas and dust in space and makes life on planets like Earth possible. “To be a star, an object has to have at least about one tenth the mass of the Sun. Any self-gravitating cloud that attempts to become a star with less material would never develop the pressures and temperatures in its interior needed for

    discussed is why stars twinkle at night, and how technology has been enhanced to produce clear images of the stars. The stars twinkling was fist investigated in 1956 by the US air force Dr. William Protheroe and Dr. William Blitzstein are conducting the inquiry from the University of Pennsylvania observatory in Philadelphia. Stars twinkle because their light must pass through pockets of Earth's atmosphere that vary in temperature and density, and it's all very turbulent. On rough nights, a star appears to

    there are many different kinds of stars in the universe. Stars start off as clouds of gas that are usually in the spinning “arms” of a galaxy The gases form together into a protostar which still cannot achieve nuclear fusion. These protostars look like stars with a cloud of gas and a disk around them. Eventually Protostars become what is known as a main sequence star. Main sequence star is a term that covers several kinds of stars. A main sequence star is a star that has achieved nuclear fusion

    you know that stars don’t stay as stars, they change over the course of time. Stellar Evolution is the star's life cycle. It includes the birth, life, and death of a star. Stars die out due to their mass because their fate depends on it. Stars have two main masses so, each mass results a different ending for each star. The two main masses are Low Mass and High Mass. These two masses of stars have different endings, so let us begin on each of their life cycles. Low mass stars are like the
