A NEW STAR!! • Once the core of a protostar reaches 10, 000 o C, nuclear fusion begins and the protostar ignites. • The protostar now becomes a star. The bright spot is a new star igniting

NUCLEAR Fusion • Nuclear Fusion is the process by which two nuclei combine to form a heavier element. • New stars initially will fuse hydrogen nuclei together to form helium.
![MAIN SEQUENCE STARS Once the star has ignited it becomes a main sequence MAIN SEQUENCE STARS • Once the star has ignited, it becomes a main sequence](https://slidetodoc.com/presentation_image_h/e435fb787b4c844b43c943886b7332ff/image-10.jpg)
MAIN SEQUENCE STARS • Once the star has ignited, it becomes a main sequence star. • Main Sequence stars fuse hydrogen to form helium, releasing enormous amounts of energy. • It takes about 10 billion years to consume all the hydrogen in a Main Sequence star.

BALANCING ACT The core of a star is where the heat is generated. The radiative and conductive zones move energy out from the center of the star. The incredible weight of of all the gas and gravity try to collapse the star on its core.

UNBALANCED FORCES As long as there is a nuclear reaction taking place, the internal forces will balance the external forces. When the hydrogen in a main sequence star is consumed, fusion stops and the forces suddenly become unbalanced. Mass and gravity cause the remaining gas to collapse on the core.

RED GIANT • Collapsing outer layers cause core to heat up. • fusion of helium into carbon begins. • Forces regain balance. • Outer shell expands from 1 to at least 40 million miles across. ( 10 to 100 times larger than the Sun) • Red Giants last for about 100 million years.

UNBALANCED FORCES (AGAIN) • When the Red Giant has fused all of the helium into carbon, the forces acting on the star are again unbalanced. • The massive outer layers of the star again rush into the core and rebound, generating staggering amounts of energy.

WHITE DWARFS • The pressure exerted on the core by the outer layers does not produce enough energy to start carbon fusion. • The core is now very dense and very hot. (A tablespoon full would weigh 5 tons!) • A white dwarf is about 8, 000 miles in diameter. • After 35, 000 years, the core begins to cool. Planetary nebula around a white dwarf star.

BLACK DWARFS • As the white dwarf cools, the light it gives off will fade through the visible light spectrum, blue to red to back (no light). • A black dwarf will continue to generate gravity and low energy transmissions (radio waves).

STARS ARE CLASSIFIED BY THEIR SIZE, COLOR AND TEMPERATURE • Not all stars are the same • • • color because different elements burn different colors. Some are red, some are blue, etc. Color tells the temperature of the star Hot stars are bluish/white and cooler stars are reddish/orange Astronomers call this a star’s spectral class.

RED SUPERGIANTS • If the mass of a star is 3 times that of our sun or greater, then the Red Giant will become a Red Supergiant. • When a massive Red Giant fuses all of the helium into carbon, fusion stops and the outer layers collapse on the core. • This time, there is enough mass to get the core hot enough to start the fusion of carbon into iron.

RED SUPERGIANTS • Once fusion begins, the star will expand to be between 100 and 1000 times larger than our sun. (Out to the orbit of Uranus)

SUPERNOVA Gas ejected from a supernova explosion • When a Supergiant fuses all of the Carbon into Iron, there is no more fuel left to consume. • The Core of the supergiant will then collapse in less than a second, causing a massive explosion called a supernova. • In a supernova, a massive shockwave is produced that blows away the outer layers of the star. • Supernova shine brighter then whole galaxies for a few years.

Massive Stars die explosively!! Supergiant: Massive stars become larger than giants as they leave the main sequence…. they can be 100 to 1, 000 times larger than the sun. Supernova: the explosion of a supergiant • Neutron Star: a small dense ball of neutrons that spin after a supernova explosion • Black Hole: the remnants of a supernova that are contracted even more than a neutron star… it is so dense light cannot escape from it.

NEUTRON STAR • Sometimes the core will survive the supernova. • If the surviving core has a mass of less than 3 solar masses, then the core becomes a neutron star. 6 miles in diameter

BLACK HOLES • If the mass of the surviving core is greater than 3 solar masses, then a black hole forms. • A black hole is a core so dense Since light cant escape a black hole, it is hard to tell what they look like or how they work. and massive that it will generate so much gravity that not even light can escape it.
