Across
- 2. mass ejection a massive burst of solar wind and magnetic fields rising above the solar corona or being released into space.
- 3. a cloud of dust and gas.
- 4. makes up 20% of the suns diameter.
- 7. the outer most layer of the suns atmosphere, huge region of gas.
- 8. nebula a cloud of gas that forms around a dying star.
- 10. visible surface of the sun.
- 12. giant a stars shell of gases cool as it expands, as the gases get cooler their glow becomes reddish.
- 13. Sequence the temperature and luminosity of most stars fall in a diagonal band on the graph.
- 15. darker, cooler areas of the sun.
- 16. a ball of very hot gases that emits light.
Down
- 1. zone energy in the sun moves by radiation.
- 4. thin visible layer of the suns atmosphere that is only visible during eclipses
- 5. hole the gravitational pull is very strong, not even light can escape.
- 6. dwarf a hot, dense core of mass.
- 7. zone energy procedure in the core move through this zone by convection.
- 9. giant massive stars become larger than giants as they leave the main sequence.
- 10. neutron stars emit a beam of radio waves
- 11. Star after a super nova a stars core may become a small, dense ball of neutrons.
- 14. large explosions, which release energy and matter into space.
- 15. Flare narrow jets of hot gas that shoot out of the sun.
