The energy produced by stars, as a by-product of nuclear fusion [See Link], radiates into space as both electromagnetic radiation and particle radiation. The particle radiation emitted by a star is manifested as the stellar wind and as a steady stream of neutrinos emanating from the star's core.
The production of energy at the core is the reason why stars shine so brightly: every time two or more atomic nuclei of one element fuse together to form an atomic nucleus of a new heavier element, gamma ray photons are released from the nuclear fusion reaction. This energy is converted to other forms of electromagnetic energy, including visible light, by the time it reaches the star's outer layers.

∙ 12y agothey contain a huge mass of hydrogen isotopes which fuse together in a process called NEUCLEUR FUSION, which keeps them "buring" for several billion years, until they run out of fuel. Then they either just dissipate or colapse back in on themselves to form a white dwarf and later supernova. The supernova will either form a black hole or new star. If the latter happens, the process starts all over again.

What are the names of the elements used to create the light in a star?
Stars use nuclear fusion of hydrogen to helium to create the energy they emit.
Does a star reflect or emit light?
make their own light. what would make light then? the sun gives off light and it's a star.
When was Star Light created?
Star Light was created in 1971.
Does a star reflect light?
No
If light from one star is 40times more intense than light from another star what is their difference in magnitudes?
4
How does a Neutron Star emit light energy if it is already a remnant of a dead star?
The star is made of compact gasses, so compact that is shines enough to create a new star.
What are the names of the elements used to create the light in a star?
Stars use nuclear fusion of hydrogen to helium to create the energy they emit.
Where star get it light?
Stars create light by fusing hydrogen into helium. This nuclear reaction creates a great amount of energy which releases light and energy. This expanding force a\is counterbalanced by gravity, keeping the star stable.
Is a star self-luminous?
Yes, starts create their own light. However, they do not last forever. Once they burn out all of the hydrogen used to create the light, they die.

What happens when you add two primary colors of light together?
You create the secondary light colours:Red and green light create yellow.Red and blue light create magenta.Green and blue light create cyan.
What does these words have in common house star street?
The answer is light Light house Star light Street light
The amount of light a star gives of is called its?
The sun give light to the star because the sun reflects on the star to give them light.
How many pages does Star Light have?
Star Light has 279 pages.
The star have light?
because the star is luminous.
