The History of the Stellar Nucleosynthesis' Evolution
Texte du Storyboard
- Hey, I have to rush a report right now, could you perhaps help me?
- Sure! I still have free time to spare? What is it about?
- Thanks! I was tasked to talk about the history of the history of nucleosynthesis' evolution
- Oh! We just learned that yesterday, so I can still remember it
- Ok, so I know that in 1920, the suggestion that nuclear fusion took place in stars was made by Arthur Eddington
- So what do you and do not understand about the topic?
- Oh yeah! That I also remember
- And the stellar source of energy was the conversion of Hydrogen to Helium!
- That's right!
- And then, George Gamow was the one who made a formula to calculate the probability of those reactions right?
- Correct, hence the Gamow Factor.
- However, I forgot about the processes Hans Bethe proposed that are used to convert Hydrogen to Helium
- Oh okay, so the first process that he proposed was the proton-proton cycle, which takes place in stars will small masses like our Sun
