  • big bang theory - describes as the origin of light element which started from singularity
  • big bang theory - among the proposed explanation on how the universe began and currently accepted theory
  • nucleosynthesis - explains how new atomic nucleus are formed from nucleus preceding from the new ones
  • stellar nucleosynthesis - birth of elements through nuclear fusion that takes with stars
  • stellar nucleosynthesis - the process by which the natural abundance of the chemical elements within stars vary due to nuclear fusion reactions
  • nuclear fusion - it is how elements hydrogen, helium and small amounts of lithium, and beryllium were formed
  • nuclear fusion - a process by which neutron and protons combine together to form a new atom
  • nuclear fusion - an extremely high energy and temperature of the universe
  • triple alpha process - is a set nuclear fusion to which three helium-4 atoms are transformed into carbon
  • c-n-o cycle - it is the catalytic cycle
  • c-n-o cycle - one of two known sets of fusion reactions by which stars convert hydrogen to a helium in a larger main-sequence star
  • alpha ladder - one of two class of nuclear fusion reactions by which stars convert helium into heavier elements
  • supernova - it is where all the elements heavier than iron formed
  • supernova nucleosynthesis - a massive explosion of a star
  • supernova nucleosynthesis - a nucleosynthesis of chemical elements in supernova explosions
  • supernova nucleosynthesis - neutron capture reaction takes place, leading to the information of heat elements
  • c burning shell - a set of nuclear fusion reaction that take place in the cores of massive stars that combines carbon into other elements
  • o burning shell - set of nuclear fusion reaction that needs up lighter elements in their core
  • rapid neutron capture process - involves rapid capture of neutrons by the atom
  • slow neutron capture process - involving slow neutron capture in red giants
  • lighter elements - formed during the big bang theory
  • heavy elements - formed after lighter elements
