Life Cycle Of Stars
All stars begin as nebulae of dust and gas that collapse under gravity into protostars. They fuse hydrogen into helium during the main sequence stage, which is the longest phase in a star's life. A star's ultimate fate depends on its mass. Small mass stars become white dwarfs after the main sequence, while medium mass stars become red giants then white dwarfs. Large mass stars over 15 solar masses may explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
Life Cycle Of A Star
The life cycle of a star consists of 5 main stages:
1. Protostars form from huge clouds of gas that collapse under gravity.
2. Main sequence stars like our Sun fuse hydrogen for billions of years.
3. Red giants expand and their outer layers cool as hydrogen runs out.
4. White dwarfs form as red giants collapse under gravity into dense remnants.
5. Black dwarfs are the final remains that cool for eternity, emitting no light.
Star lifecycles poster
High-mass stars have shorter lifespans of 1 million to tens of millions of years compared to low-mass stars like our Sun which live for tens of millions to trillions of years. During their main sequence phase, stars convert about 1/3 of their hydrogen into helium through nuclear fusion. Massive stars are capable of fusing heavier elements like iron. In their later evolution, stars eject their outer layers and collapse their cores, possibly becoming a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole at the end of their life.
Life cycle of a star
Stars are born from contracting nebulae of gas and dust. They spend most of their lives on the main sequence, fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. Eventually they run out of fuel in their cores and their outer layers expand, forming red giants or supergiants. From there, smaller stars shed their outer layers to form planetary nebulae and white dwarfs, while larger stars explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
The life cycle of a star
The document outlines the life cycle of stars from birth in nebulae of gas and dust through their main sequence phase, later evolution into red giants, and final stages as white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes. It describes how gravity pulls gas together in nebulae to form protostars, which become main sequence stars fueling nuclear fusion for millions of years. As hydrogen runs out in their cores, more massive stars explode as supernovae while lower mass stars expand into red giants then contract into white dwarfs.
Star formation
The document discusses the lifecycle of stars from their formation to death. It begins by defining what stars and constellations are. It then focuses on our sun as a medium-sized, yellow star at the center of our solar system. Stars are classified based on temperature and brightness as young dwarf stars or older, larger supergiant stars. The document outlines the typical stages a star like the sun will progress through over billions of years from birth from clouds of dust and gas, burning hydrogen through nuclear fusion as a main sequence star, and eventual death through expansion and explosion at the end of its life. Various nebulae and supernova remnants are used as examples of star birth and death.
The Life Cycle of a Star PowerPoint
Stars are born from clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. Over billions of years, stars progress through various stages as they age. Lower mass stars begin as protostars and become main sequence stars fueled by nuclear fusion. As their hydrogen runs out, they become red giants and eventually white dwarfs. Higher mass stars explode as supernovae at the end of their lives, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
Planetary nebulae formation
Planetary nebulae form during the late stages of evolution for low-to-medium mass stars. As a star expands into a red giant, it ejects its outer layers through pulsations and stellar winds. The hot core ionizes the ejected gas, causing it to glow brightly. This energized shell of nebulous gas appears as a planetary nebula. Examples are the Helix Nebula and Ring Nebula. More massive stars may explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes, depending on the star's original mass. The document discusses these stages of stellar evolution and death that give rise to different astronomical phenomena like planetary nebulae and neutron stars.

Life Cycle Of A Star
The document discusses the life cycle of stars from their birth in nebulae to their death. Stars are born when gas and dust clouds collapse under gravity and heat up. During their main sequence phase, stars fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. Later, larger stars become red giants or supergiants as their cores shrink and outer layers expand. Eventually, stars die and eject their outer layers, leaving behind dense remnants like white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes.
The Life Cycle of a Star
Stars are formed from clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. As stars age and evolve, they progress through different stages - from stars to red giants or dwarfs to supernovae. The most massive stars may collapse into neutron stars or black holes. Black holes are objects so dense that not even light can escape their powerful gravitational pull. Material near a black hole forms a swirling accretion disk and is ejected at nearly light speed in powerful jets. Advancing technology is improving our understanding of stellar evolution and black hole formation.
THE LIFE CYCLE OF A STAR!
All stars begin as clouds of dust and gas called nebulae. When gravity causes the nebula to collapse, a protostar forms at the center. The protostar grows in size and temperature through nuclear fusion reactions until it becomes a stable main sequence star. Small stars like our Sun will eventually expand into red giants and shed their outer layers, leaving behind dense white dwarf cores. Larger stars may explode as supernovae, collapsing into neutron stars or black holes. The life cycle of a star depends on its initial mass, with smaller stars ending as white dwarfs and more massive stars ending as black holes or neutron stars.
Stars
A star is a ball of plasma held together by gravity that undergoes nuclear fusion at its core, releasing electromagnetic radiation. Stars exist along a spectrum from hot, blue stars to cooler, red stars and can be classified based on their temperature, luminosity, and color. A star's life cycle begins as a contracting nebula and progresses through stages such as the main sequence, red giant, planetary nebula, and white dwarf before ending as a neutron star or black hole.
Types of stars
This document describes different stages and types of stars:
- Main sequence stars like our Sun spend most of their lives fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores.
- Red giants are large, reddish stars that have exhausted hydrogen fusion and begun fusing helium.
- Planetary nebulae form when average-sized stars eject their outer layers after becoming red giants, leaving behind dense, hot cores called white dwarfs.
- Brown dwarfs are failed stars too small to sustain nuclear fusion.
- Variable stars change in brightness over timescales from seconds to years as they evolve.
- Binary stars are two gravitationally bound stars that orbit a common center of mass.
Star Life Cycle
Stars are born from clouds of gas and dust called nebulas. As the gas spins faster under gravity, it heats up and forms a protostar. Nuclear fusion then occurs, turning the protostar into a main sequence star that shines for millions of years by fusing hydrogen into helium. Eventually the hydrogen runs out, causing the star to expand into a red giant. From there, less massive stars will blow off their outer layers and collapse into white dwarfs, while more massive stars will explode in supernovas and collapse into neutron stars or black holes.
life cycle of a star
The life cycle of stars depends on their mass. Lower mass stars like our Sun will eventually become red giants then white dwarfs. Higher mass stars live shorter lives and end as supernovas, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes. All stars begin as nebulae of dust and gas that collapse under gravity into protostars and main sequence stars fueled by nuclear fusion.
Life Cycle Ppt.
Stars are formed from dense clouds of gas and dust called nebulas. Over millions of years, the nebula collapses under gravity to form a protostar. Once the protostar's core reaches 10 million K, nuclear fusion begins and the star enters the main sequence stage. During the main sequence, internal pressure balances gravitational forces. Low and medium mass stars end as white dwarfs, then eventually black dwarfs. Massive stars may explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
Life cycle of stars
There are different life cycle stages for stars depending on their original mass. Low mass stars progress through the stages of nebula, main sequence, red giant, planetary nebula, white dwarf, and black dwarf. High mass stars go through nebula, main sequence, red supergiant, supernova, and either become a neutron star or black hole. The main sequence stage can last billions of years for low mass stars but only millions for high mass stars.
NEUTRON STARS AND WHITE DWARFS
White dwarfs are the burned-out cores of stars that have collapsed into an extremely dense state with no empty space between atoms. They have a mass similar to the sun's but are very small, around the size of Earth. Neutron stars are created during supernova explosions from the central core of a star that collapsed under gravity. They are an extremely compact ball of neutrons that are very hot, small, dense, and have masses higher than the sun's. Both white dwarfs and neutron stars achieve extreme density through electron or quantum degeneracy pressure preventing further gravitational collapse.
4.2 Stars have Life Cycles
Stars change over their life cycles depending on their mass. Low-mass stars like our Sun remain on the main sequence for billions of years, slowly fusing hydrogen into helium. Eventually they expand into red giants and later cool into white dwarfs. High-mass stars burn through their fuel quickly and explode as supernovae after millions of years, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes. All stars form from contracting nebulae of gas and dust.
Stellar Evolution Powerpoint
This document discusses stellar evolution and how we observe stars across the universe. It notes that we can view stars forming, burning, and exploding using satellites and telescopes. The document also discusses the speed of light being 300,000 km/s and how we can observe stars millions or billions of light years away, seeing light from stars up to 10-15 billion light years away. Finally, it mentions that the Sun will gradually increase in radius and luminosity for another 5 billion years as hydrogen fusion provides its energy.
Galaxies nebulae stars notes
Within galaxies, star forming regions called nebulae contain clouds of dust, hydrogen and helium gases. Stars sometimes form within these nebulae as the gases and dust collapse under their own gravity. A nebula with protostars, or young stars that are still forming, is shown in the diagram. The document then goes on to describe the life cycle of stars like our Sun and the changes it will undergo as it evolves and eventually dies in approximately 5 billion years.
The Star
This document provides an overview of the characteristics, classifications, motions, and significance of stars. It discusses their sizes, colors, temperatures, compositions, and magnitudes. Stars are classified based on their spectral types, which relate to their surface temperatures. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram plots stars' luminosities and temperatures. Stars exhibit both apparent and actual motions, including proper motion across the sky. Studying stars helps us understand how elements are formed, how our solar system evolved, and the dynamics influencing galaxies.
Birth of the star
Stars are formed in nebulae, clouds of dust and gas found in spiral galaxies. Dense parts of these clouds undergo gravitational collapse, compressing to form a rotating gas globule. As the globule collapses over thousands to millions of years due to gravity and pressure, the increasing temperature and rotation cause it to form a central core and surrounding protoplanetary disk. Once the core reaches temperatures over 27 million degrees and nuclear fusion begins, it becomes a stable main sequence star.
Stars
Stars can be classified by their temperature as hot blue stars around 30,000 degrees, cool red stars around 2,500 degrees, or yellow stars like our sun around 6,000 degrees. Constellations like Orion can be identified by patterns of brighter stars. The brightness of stars is measured by their apparent and absolute magnitudes, with lower numbers indicating brighter stars. A nebula is a cloud where stars are born, and the Eagle Nebula is an example. Stellar evolution progresses from protostars to main sequence stars like our sun fusing hydrogen, then to giants and supergiants fusing helium, eventually leaving behind planetary nebulae and forming white dwarfs, or in massive stars, supernovae leading to neutron stars or
Star's Life Cycle
Stars go through life cycles like humans, being born from collapsing gas clouds, burning hydrogen through nuclear fusion on the main sequence, and eventually dying. Medium and low mass stars end as white dwarfs after shedding their outer layers, while high mass stars explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes. Neutron stars are incredibly dense, rotating rapidly, while black holes have event horizons beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape.
Ch 19 -life and death of stars
1. Stars are born through nuclear fusion and spend most of their life fusing hydrogen into helium as a main sequence star.
2. When stars exhaust their hydrogen fuel, low mass stars become red giants and high mass stars explode as supernovae.
3. The remnants of dead stars are white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes depending on the original star's mass.
Star life cycle
Stars form from collapsing clouds of gas and dust found in nebulae. A star's life cycle depends on its mass - smaller stars less than 3 times the Sun's mass will spend most of their existence on the main sequence fusing hydrogen. Larger stars evolve more quickly, becoming red giants and eventually exploding as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
Neutron stars liu jia
This document discusses neutron stars and explores them as natural laboratories for studying extremely dense matter. It provides background on stellar evolution and supernovae that form neutron stars. Neutron stars are incredibly small yet dense, with masses of around 1.35-2 times the sun's mass compressed into the size of Manhattan. They also spin incredibly fast due to conservation of angular momentum. The document examines using neutron stars to study how matter behaves under extreme density and discusses challenges in measuring their precise masses and radii from Earth. It outlines the author's research simulating neutron star atmospheres to help answer fundamental physics questions about their properties.

Life cycle of a star
Stars are born from contracting nebulae of gas and dust. They spend most of their lives on the main sequence, fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. Eventually they run out of fuel in their cores and their outer layers expand, forming red giants or supergiants. From there, smaller stars shed their outer layers to form planetary nebulae and white dwarfs, while larger stars explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.

Stars form from dense clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. As gravity pulls the particles together, nuclear fusion begins in the core, converting hydrogen to helium and releasing energy. Over billions of years, a star will burn through its hydrogen fuel. Less massive stars will expand into red giants then shed their outer layers, leaving behind a dense white dwarf core. More massive stars explode as supernovae, leaving behind neutron stars or black holes depending on their original mass.

Physical Science Lesson 1day1.pptx
The document discusses the formation of heavier elements through stellar nucleosynthesis. It explains that elements heavier than beryllium are formed through nuclear fusion processes inside stars as they evolve over time. As stars age and burn through lighter elements like hydrogen and helium in their cores, they begin fusing heavier elements like carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium, and silicon. This process continues until iron is formed, at which point fusion stops releasing energy. When massive stars reach this stage, they explode as supernovae, further fusing elements and scattering them throughout space.

1) Stars form from dense fragments within interstellar clouds that collapse under gravity over millions of years.
2) Protostars form within the collapsing fragments and grow in mass through accretion until their cores reach temperatures high enough for nuclear fusion.
3) After 10 million years, the protostar becomes a true star on the main sequence, where nuclear fusion powers the star for its lifetime.
Conley cis100 ppt_assignment
This document provides an overview of star formation, evolution, and death. It discusses how stars form from clouds of hydrogen and helium in nebulas. Once stars accumulate enough mass, nuclear fusion begins in their cores. The document outlines the life cycles of stars of different masses, from red giants to supernovae and the formation of neutron stars or black holes. Key stages in a massive star's death are described, such as the core collapse that causes type II supernovae and the ejection of heavier elements into space.
Formation of Heavier Elements.pptx
The document discusses the synthesis of new elements, beginning with the earliest elements of hydrogen and helium formed in the Big Bang. It then explains how elements up to iron are formed through nuclear fusion in stars, and how heavier elements are created through neutron capture processes during supernovae or in the cores of massive stars. The text also outlines several key discoveries in the development of the periodic table and synthesis of both naturally occurring and man-made transuranic elements.
life cycle of stars
- Stars form inside dense clouds of gas and dust known as molecular clouds. As the cloud contracts, it forms a protostar that continues to gather mass and become denser.
- Once a protostar gains enough mass, nuclear fusion of hydrogen can ignite in its core, turning it into a main-sequence star. Stars with insufficient mass become brown dwarfs.
- More massive stars have shorter lifespans than lower mass stars and end their lives in supernova explosions, while lower mass stars evolve more gradually over billions of years.
Formation of stars
Stars are formed from clouds of dust and gas that collapse under gravity. Most stars spend around 90% of their life fusing hydrogen into helium through nuclear reactions. When stars run out of fuel, their cores collapse and they expel their outer layers, forming planetary nebulae. This leaves behind dense, hot cores known as white dwarfs. More massive stars may explode as supernovae when nuclear fusion can no longer counter gravity, or collapse entirely into black holes.
Astonishing Astronomy 101 - Chapter 6
This document summarizes key components and concepts about the structure of the solar system:
- The solar system consists of the Sun, eight planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and other small bodies. The Sun contains over 99% of the solar system's mass.
- The inner terrestrial planets are rocky, while the outer gas giants are large planets composed primarily of hydrogen and helium. An asteroid belt exists between Mars and Jupiter.
- Factors like a planet's mass, distance from the Sun, composition, and atmospheric properties help determine its environment and surface conditions. Larger planets retain heat and atmospheres better than smaller ones.
- Techniques like radioactive dating indicate the solar system formed

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptx
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

BREEDING METHODS FOR DISEASE RESISTANCE.pptx
Plant breeding for disease resistance is a strategy to reduce crop losses caused by disease. Plants have an innate immune system that allows them to recognize pathogens and provide resistance. However, breeding for long-lasting resistance often involves combining multiple resistance genes
Equivariant neural networks and representation theory
Or: Beyond linear.
Abstract: Equivariant neural networks are neural networks that incorporate symmetries. The nonlinear activation functions in these networks result in interesting nonlinear equivariant maps between simple representations, and motivate the key player of this talk: piecewise linear representation theory.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
