Is the sun hottest at its center?

Answer 1

Not even close. The Sun is a little (very little) bigger than average, but the "average" includes some puny stars indeed. There are stars that are up to 150 times more massive than the Sun, and hundreds of times larger in diameter, and thousands of degrees hotter. Some astronomers have observed - correctly - that the sun is about as "average" as a star gets.

Answer 2

The hottest thing that exists in the universe is not a quasar (super-luminous sources in distant massive galaxies), simply because a quasar is not giving off immense heat but a massive amount of radiation and light energy. The hottest thing is actually, believe or not, conceived right here on Earth. It is in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) an instrument that smashes atoms and protons into each other at relativistic (near-light) speeds to create very high-mass particles. The energy is so great, that the temperature for a split second is approximately 10 million billion degrees Celsius. See link for reference.

This is the hottest known place and thing that exists to humanity as far as we now know.

The interior temperature of a newly-formed neutron star is believed to be the hottest for naturally-occurring processes, as much as 100 billion degrees Celsius. Of course, vastly higher temperatures would have existed in the immediate aftermath of the Big Bang. The hottest possible theoretical temperature is called the Planck Temperature, which is 10^32 kelvins (100 million trillion trillion kelvins).

Answer 3

Well in our solar system, the sun, but we cant get to the end of the universe yet. So in our solar system the sun, but it is impossible to know. By the way, when a supernova explodes, it can become as hot as 3,000,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit

Answer 4

The sun is the hottest thing in our Solar system . the temperature of Sun's surface is about 5778 kelvin (effective) and temp. of core is about 15.7 million kelvin and temp. of sun's corona is 5 million kelvin .

Answer 5

Outer core From 4400'C in the outer regions near the mantle, to around 6100'C in the inner regions near the inner core (7,952 to 11,000oF).

Inner core--between 5,000 and 7,000 degrees C (9,000 to 12,630oF).

Answer 6

No. Our sun is very hot, but not as much as some other stars. The surface temperature of our sun is around 5500 to 6000 degrees Kelvin, about the same in °C. The inner core temperature is around 14.5 million degrees Kelvin. Blue stars are much hotter, with surface temperatures of blue hyper giant stars up to 40,000 degrees Kelvin and core temperatures of several million Kelvin.

Dying Stars can be very hot at the core, as they go through the last stages of life, fusing heavier and heavier atoms. In the final stages, some super massive red hyper giants can be undergoing silicon fusion, where temperatures are up to 2,700,000,000 (2.7 billion) Kelvin. During a supernova explosion, core temperatures can reach 100 billion Kelvin. This is where heavier atoms are created such as Gold - this is only for a very short time though.

Scientists on Earth have been able create huge temperatures of around 2 billion degrees through special equipment, though collisions of protons and neutrons at the CERN hadron collider are thought to create temperatures of up to 10 trillion degrees (10,000 billion) on a very small scale for very short periods of time.

Answer 7

No it is not, rather there billions of stars hotter than it e.g. Rigel, Eta Carinae, R136a1, etc,.The color of the star tells wether the star is hot or not. The sun is yellow and is not that hot. The hottest stars are blue and white. The coolest stars are red

Answer 8

Supernova.

---------------------

im not sure, but i think its a blackhole.... see what is the hottest thing that use to exist in the universe.

Your mom's the hottest thing in the universe.

Answer 9

The temperature on the Sun's surface (photosphere) is 5,500 degrees Celsius.

In the center (core), the temperature is an incredible 15,000,000 (15 million) degrees Celsius.

Answer 10

Recent research into the temperature of all areas of Earth has concluded that the temperature of the inner core is 10,832 degrees Fahrenheit. That is 6,000 degrees Celsius.
