STAR NUCLEOSYNTHESIS
- Stars exist approximately 400 million
years after the Big Bang.
- The first stars are called Hydrogen Giants.
100 times larger than the sun.
- Stars converts (H) into (He). (90% of the
life of the stars)
- From (He) to (C) and (O). Then so on until
all the that is left is (Fe).
But when a
Star
IT EXPLODES!!!!!
Resulting into a:
Supernova
SUPERNOVA NUCLEOSYNTHESIS
- Supernova supplies enough energy to
(Fe) atoms.

STELLAR EVOLUTION
Starting from a
small, young,
yellow star,
successive nuclear
reactions occurred
until it became a
giant red star.
STELLAR EVOLUTION
The reactions
involved in the
formation of each
new element
happened in
regions or layers so
called “fusion
shells”.
