Formation of metals and stars
April 13, 2003 on 11:05 pm | In Ad Rem | 3 CommentsThe universe started when a singularity of all matter expanded. Superstrings attracted to each other and formed quarks. Quarks coalesced and formed protons. Protons and electrons formed neutrons. Protons, neutrons, and electrons formed hydrogen. Hydrogen clouds gathered and under its gravity formed massive bodies. As the bodies grew to enormous size to internal pressure caused hydrogen nuclei at the core to bounce into other hydrogen increasing temperature tremendously. At high enough pressure and temperature it begins to fuse into deuterium. This releases high energy particles. The galactic body now radiates. As more hydrogen gathers and pressures and temperature increase dramatically hydrogen begins to fuse into helium, which releases a large number of higher energy protons and electrons.
There are now a few things that can happen. The star can continue to gather hydrogen, either from accreting from a companion star, or attracting hydrogen clouds. If this continues the star will reach a point of energy output that exceeds its capacity. If you have ever used a firecracker you should know what happens when energy output exceeds the packaging
