Midterm 3 Review Sessions Two choices:
... • Each point inside the Sun stays at a fixed temperature. • How energy generation rate depends on density, temperature, composition. • How energy is carried outwards. For every point in the Sun, we can then compute: • temperature • pressure • density • composition • energy generation • energy transp ...
