Synthesis of the Elements in Starsстатья из журнала
Аннотация: this, the situation is not as complex as it might seem.Research in "classical" nuclear physics since 1932 has shown that all nuclei consist of two fundamental build- ing blocks.These are the proton and the neutron which are called nucleons in this context.As long as energies below the Ineson pmduction threshoM are not exceeded, all "prompt" nuclear processes can be described as the shufHing and reshuRhng of protons and neutrons into the variety of nucleonic packs called nuclei.Only in the slow beta-decay pmcesses is there any interchange be- tween protons and neutrons at low energies, and even there, as in the prompt.reactions, the number of nu- cleons remains constant.Only at very high energies can nucleons be produced or annihilated.Prompt nuclear processes plus the slow beta reactions make it possible in principle to transmute any one type of ' fth 'dK lty ' th th eeprocessesoperatca d have cenma e, w adding further gn general there is only one i c s rocessi slncc h a very long lifetime.T i24 b h cui've.e lD ther locess, t cu tlma c c lich lsobRrs at 22) 123~124, plodUccd by I'Rpld IlcUtloD burning ls responsible for t y rlchlsobarsat h l' burning is responsibe fo C, 0, Nc" Also h drogcn burning in these a er p n 4 tron sl T b d d onl lIl thc r Ne" (cf.Sec.III).The only exceptions up to this heaviest iso o point are deuterium, lithium, ery iu, , ss whexe lt ls e s ' h h th fore been assigned to R ra ically erneu ron- .D e cess.AsslgQ- Rctlvc c wl men 1" m er o -"'(half-life 2X10' years), and after another n cnt type 0 syQ cs, cess.g- nlcnt to thc c process Iox' R QUID cx' 0 XC130 re the resu tan 1 t Ileo decays in 12.6 hr to X d ' th hain instead of Te c d T "8 can be produced in is thus roduce in e s c Te"5 Tc"'7 an e ca h hT"'' d d ess alt oug e either the s or the r proces, g ca ture of neutronsonlyinawea si e in h f h I"'d 5m% of the chain resulting from t e ac rest and lightest isotope b either process and it is or i cannot be built by is or d T "4 are about thc loccss is dcIQRIi c .c l dT"'.Thi gg t th t ndant and Te"', Te, an e T t e"' and Tc"', to the r process.e the s r, and processes have een ma e ' d II 3 the separation of the isotopes in the duccd in the same process are connecte y s a e d 1 d fth od to b ow 1 1 the great increase d the enera tren o clear.In order to show ow n1olc c cRl y f the abun- ln Rbui1dancc ln tLie p h eaks linear plots o e a dances of the odd and even isotopes, respec ivc y, d II 3.
