What is an explosive nucleosynthesis?
Explosive nucleosynthesis is to create heavy elements that occur in the heart of the supernova. Supernova is an extremely energy astronomical event where the supergiant star exhausts nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity. Infalling material bounces against the SuperDense core and creates an explosion and a shock queue that travels from the core at speeds of up to 2000 km/s. Supernova can overshadow their host galaxy and astronomers have been observed since ancient history.
Stars gain their energy by fusion of atomic cores, mainly hydrogen and helium. This is called hydrogen and helium burning. In very massive stars, the combustion of these elements creates "ashes" of heavier and heavier elements - carbon, neon, silicon, iron and nickel - up to the final amount of energy needed to insurance of the core exceeds the energy it releases, and the nuclear chain reaction is turned off. What remains what is the Iron-Nickel Consizing core of approximately 1.38 solar masses that will then collapse quickly into the neutron starsy or black holes, causing supernum from bounceback. Another type of supernova, called the type Ia supernova, occurs in less massive stars. The type Ia supernova occurs when the white dwarf of the carbon oxygen exceeds the same 1.38 solar weight threshold and burns all its content in seconds.
In both supernova types, temperatures in billions of degrees are formed in the core and several solar materials of the material are drained outwards at 3% of the light speed. Although the cores of iron and nickel are connected in terms of energy, there is more than enough to start the necessary reactions. Each element heavier than iron on the periodic table is either created in supernova explosions, or is the product of the break -up of these elements.
Supernova nucleosynthesis is only one category of nucleosynthesis. A more typical type of nucleosynthesis is star nucleosynthesis, especially the above type hydrogen and helium. ExistenceIt is also a nucleosynthesis of the Big Bang that occurred during the first three minutes of the existence of the universe. During this event, 24% of the initial hydrogen atoms in space were fused to the Helium core. Currently, the observable universe is composed of about 74% hydrogen, 24% helium, 1% oxygen and 1% of other elements.
