What are we made of

in #physics6 years ago

If you have read my other articles, you may know that some elements came from stars fusion them together but somehow there are plenty more. All elements didint go trough fusion processes. There is one other process which is very important for this scenario. But first we need to know why stars even shine, obviously because of nuclear fusion but that doesnt happen so easily. Big masses of gas are merging together and form spheres, like jupiter is one. But Jupiter doesnt shine, thats because of the pressure of the mass, fusion happens right in the middle of it only with allot of pressure. Ok, stars now fusion hydrogen into helium, helium into carbon, carbon into neon, neon into oxygen, oxygen into silicon and silicon into iron but no more. So how can it be that there are more than seven elements. When iron is done fusioning, the pressure which is going under the first layer of the suns material will be reflected by the iron core. So what does the pressure wave do now, it goes from the core to the outside of the single layers. And that is where the magic happens. The pressure wave takes all the elements in the layers and takes them from the core to the outside, in this process the 7 elements hit each other and glue together to all the other Elements which exists. And if the wave reaches the last outter layer. It goes on and let the star die. An iron core is left and all the fused elements are somewhere outside the suns gravitational pull field. From this process other planets are able to form, like our earth has formed some time ago.
