black holes and neutron stars
As heavier elements are formed by fusion in the core, a massive star will eventually exhaust its nuclear fuel and trigger a supernova explosion. This explosion will generate immense energy, leading to the production and dispersal of even more heavy elements into space.
Yes, gold can come from space. Gold is thought to have been formed in supernova explosions billions of years ago and then brought to Earth through meteorite impacts. However, the majority of gold on Earth is thought to have been created through geological processes within the Earth's mantle.
The Orion Nebula was not formed from a single supernova or nova event. It is a stellar nursery where new stars are currently being formed. The nebula is created by the glowing gas and dust illuminated by newly formed stars within it.
It is a supergiant.(the late stage in the life cycle of a massive starin which the core heats up, heavy elements formedby fusion, and expands; it can eventually explodeto what scientist call a supernova.)-Missy K
Pulsars are formed during a supernova event when a massive star explodes, leaving behind a dense core called a neutron star. As this neutron star rotates rapidly, it emits beams of radiation that we detect as pulses, hence the name "pulsars." So, pulsars are directly related to the remnants of supernova explosions.
Neutron star: A dense remnant composed primarily of neutrons formed from the collapsing core of a massive star during a supernova explosion. Black hole: A region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape, formed when the core of a massive star collapses during a supernova. Heavy elements: Elements with atomic numbers higher than iron, such as gold, uranium, and platinum, are created during the intense temperatures and pressures of a supernova explosion.
Denser materials originally sank to the core. The compression of these materials formed a solid inner core.
A supernova happens when most of the core of the collapsing star has become neutrons, held up against gravity by neutron degeneracy pressure. At this point a shockwave reflects from the neutron star surface, driving the supernova explosion.So the answer to your question is neutrons.
Iron is the heaviest element formed by fusion in the core of a supergiant star prior to its supernova explosion. Elements heavier than iron are typically formed during the supernova explosion itself through nucleosynthesis processes.
Neutron stars are formed when a massive star runs out of fuel and collapses under its own gravity during a supernova explosion. The key processes involved in their creation include the core collapse of the star, the expulsion of outer layers in a supernova explosion, and the compression of the core into a dense ball of neutrons.
In a high mass supernova, the outermost layer consists of hydrogen and helium, followed by layers of heavier elements such as carbon, oxygen, silicon, and iron. At the core of the supernova, neutron-rich elements like gold, platinum, and uranium are formed through nucleosynthesis processes during the explosion.

It's formed in supernova explosions.

Prepositional phrases that begin with after are adverb phrases: e.g. "The nebula formed after a supernova" meaning the nebula formed afterward.
It is postulated that a supernova explosion was the catalyst which formed our Solar System.
