How the Star is Born?
![Page 4: Birth of the star](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051523/58adb9eb1a28ab56468b4797/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Stars are formed in nebulae, interstellar clouds of dust and
gas (mostly hydrogen). These
stellar nurseries are abundant in the
arms of spiral galaxies.

In these stellar nurseries, dense parts
of these clouds undergo gravitational
collapse and compress to form a rotating gas
globule.

The globule is cooled by emitting radio waves and infrared radiation. It is
compressed by gravitational forces and also by shock waves of pressure from
supernova or the hot gas released from nearby bright stars. These forces cause
the roughly-spherical globule to collapse and rotate. The process of collapse takes
from between 10,000 to 1,000,000 years.

A Central Core and a Protoplanetary Disk:As the collapse proceeds, the temperature
and pressure within the globule increases, as the atoms are in closer proximity. Also, the globule rotates faster and faster. This spinning action causes an increase in centrifugal forces (a radial force on spinning objects) that causes the globule to have a central core and a surrounding flattened disk of dust (called a protoplanetary disk or accretion disk). The central core becomes the star; the protoplanetary disk may eventually coalesce into orbiting planets, asteroids, etc.

Protostar:The contracting cloud heats up due to friction and forms a glowing protostar; this stage lasts for roughly 50 million years. If there is enough material in the protostar, the gravitational collapse and the heating continue.
If there is not enough material in the protostar, one possible outcome is a brown dwarf (a large, not-very-luminous celestial body having a mass between 1028 kg and 84 x 1028 kg).

A Newborn Star:
When a temperature of about
27,000,000°F is reached, nuclear fusion
begins. This is the nuclear reaction in
which hydrogen atoms are converted to
helium atoms plus energy. This energy
(radiation) production prevents further
contraction of the star.

Young stars emit jets of intense radiation that
heat the surrounding matter to the point at
which it glows brightly. These narrowly-focused
jets can be trillions of miles long and can travel
at 500,000 miles per hour. These jets may be
focused by the star's magnetic field.
The protostar is now a stable main sequence
star which will remain in this state for about 10
billion years. After that, the hydrogen fuel is depleted and the star begins to die.

Life span:
The most massive stars have
the shortest lives. Stars that are 25
to 50 times that of the Sun live for
only a few million years. Stars like
our Sun live for about 10 billion
years. Stars less massive than the
Sun have even longer life spans.
