The transformation of a main sequence star into a red
... The fusion reaction which is responsible for the heat production, takes place only in the inner regions of a star, since only there the temperature is high enough to maintain the reaction. The material which surrounds the reaction zone can be considered to play the role of a thermal insulator. We th ...

... the exact analytical solutions are also given by infinite series (involving Bessel functions for a cylinder [5]). Because of this complexity, they are usually plotted or tabulated. In figure 2 we have plotted the exact temperature evolution at the centre of these objects (for example, the full line ...

Measuring kinetic energy changes in the mesoscale with low
... where we have used equipartition theorem along the quasistatic protocols, κ(t)hx2 (t)i = kTkin (t). The average potential and kinetic energy changes are equal to h∆U i = h∆Ekin i = k2 [Tkin (τ ) − Tkin (0)]. Finally, the total energy change is h∆Etot i = h∆U i + h∆Ekin i = k[Tkin (τ ) − Tkin (0)].
