  2. Convection zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_zone

    An illustration of the structure of the Sun and a red giant star, showing their convective zones. These are the granular zones in the outer layers of the stars. A convection zone, convective zone or convective region of a star is a layer which is unstable due to convection. Energy is primarily or partially transported by convection in such

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Trek_regions...

    The Star Trek Star Charts have the Romulans and Klingons entirely within the Beta Quadrant, as well as the Gorn Hegemony, the Son'a Solidarity, and the Metron Consortium. The Star Trek Star Charts further locate in the Alpha Quadrant the First Federation, Breen, Ferengi, Tzenkethi, Cardassians, Bajorans, Talarians, and Tholians.

  4. Dredge-up - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dredge-up

    The third dredge-up occurs after a star enters the asymptotic giant branch, after a flash occurs in a helium-burning shell. The third dredge-up brings helium, carbon, and the s-process products to the surface, increasing the abundance of carbon relative to oxygen; in some larger stars this is the process that turns the star into a carbon star.

  5. Hayashi track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayashi_track

    He therefore replaced the model by including the effects of thick convection zones on a star's interior. A few years prior, Osterbrock proposed deep convection zones with efficient convection, analyzing them using the opacity of H − ions (the dominant opacity source in cool atmospheres) in temperatures below 5000 K. However, the earliest ...

  6. Radiative zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_zone

    The radius of the radiative zone increases monotonically with mass, with stars around 1.2 solar masses being almost entirely radiative. Above 1.2 solar masses, the core region becomes a convection zone and the overlying region is a radiative zone, with the amount of mass within the convective zone increasing with the mass of the star. [7]

  7. Tachocline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachocline

    The tachocline is the transition region of stars of more than 0.3 solar masses, between the radiative interior and the differentially rotating outer convective zone. This causes the region to have a very large shear as the rotation rate changes very rapidly.
