In a supernova explosion, neutron capture reactions take place, leading to the formation of heavy elements. There are two processes of neutron capture called rapid process (r-process) and the slow process (s-process) so these reactions lead to formation of different elements like: silicon, sulfur, chlorine, argon, sodium, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium and iron peak elements (around mass number A=60): vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt and nickel; gold, platinum, lead, hydrogen, oxygen are also formed. Radioactive titanium-44 in supernova remnant 1987A have been detected for the first time.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of electrical charge does a neutron carry?
The neutrons doesn't carry a charge.They're neutral - that's why they're called "neutrons".A neutron has no charge. That is why it is called a neutron, because it is neutral.
When a neutron decays into a proton the electron is emitted from the nucleus what is this kind of radioactivity called?
If an electron is released from the nucleus (and not from an electron shell) then it would have been emitted by a neutron in beta decay. In beta-minus decay, a neutral neutron emits an electron and an anti-neutrino and becomes a proton; in beta-plus decay, a proton emits a positron and a neutrino and becomes a neutron.
What kind of sound does A sound wave with high amplitude produces what kind of sound?
A sound wave with high amplitude produces a louder sound compared to a sound wave with lower amplitude. It is perceived as a stronger or more intense sound.
Through which kind of nuclear reaction does the sun produce energy?
Nuclear fusion. Lighter elements such as hydrogen atoms get fused to produce heavier elements such as helium. While doing so enormous heat is produced.
What kind of wave does a jackhammer make?
A jackhammer produces mechanical or sound waves. The mechanical waves are produced by the physical vibrations of the jackhammer, while the sound waves are generated by the noise it produces as a result of these vibrations.
What kind of elements have electron and proton and neutron?
All of the elements have protons and electrons, and all elements except hydrogen have neutrons.
Are pulsars a kind of neutron star?
Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.
What kind of charge does a neutron have?
A neutron does not have a charge -- its neutral
What kind of star is neptune?
Negative neutron star
What kind of chage does a neutron have?
Neutral. Not positive, and not negative
What kind of atom has sixteen protons and neutrons?
None...i think Atomic number 16 is Oxygen I think...chemistry was 40 years ago! If I remember correctly it's nucleus is composed of 16 protons and ONE neutron. Having one neutron is standard for all naturally occurring elements.
What kind of decay is it when a nuclear reaction in which a neutron is transformed into a proton and in electron?
When a neutron -> proton, it is called a Beta - (minus) decay.
What kind of particles are found in the nucleus of an atom?
proton neutron
What does initiation of nuclear weapons mean?
starting the fission neutron chain reaction using some kind of pulsed neutron source.
What kind of caterpillars live outside that you can capture for a school project?
any kind
Is Capture The Flag Awesome?
It depends what kind of person you are.
Can annihilation of matter occur between a positron and neutron?
No, a positron cannot react with a neutron in any kind of annihilation reaction. An electron and a positron can, and the same with a neutron and an anti-neutron, but it does not occur between a positron and a neutron.
