Interior Of A Star

One way to move energy from the interior of a star to its surface is via radiation.

Interior of a star. When 4 atoms of hydrogen are converted into one atom of helium a small portion of the mass is converted to energy. The interior of a star. The closer one gets to the core of the star the hotter it gets.

In a balloon the gas inside the balloon pushes outward and the elastic material supplies just enough inward compression to balance the gas pressure. On the surface stars can appear to be violent creations of nature but inside raging powers reside. Using this process a star can produce large amounts of energy for a long time.

Non degenerate stars have a simple structure. Three such treatments are illustrated for a pentagram. The core is the inner most and final layer to a star just like the earth a star also has a core.

This happens when the star approaches its death. So these layers make up a star from the outside which is the corona all the way through to the inside which you now know is the core. A star is like a balloon.

In the core the main energy in the form of light. Photons produced in the core are repeatedly absorbed and reemitted by stellar atoms gradually propagating to the surface. This is an example of nuclear fusion.
