Subject has optimum density has definition requires minimum mass at star birth has product has reactant is a kind of has optimum temperature has duration

exothermic fusion process A fusion reaction which linerates energy. energy source

oxygen burning 10⁷ g cm^-3 The stage when a star fuses oxygen into silicon and sulfur. It occurs only in stars born with over eight solar masses. 8 solar masses silicon, sulfur oxygen exothermic fusion process 1.5 × 10⁹ K 6 months
