Abstract

There are three processes involved in energy generation in a star: PP chain, CNO cycle, and the Triple-alpha reaction. In this paper, the first two processes were investigated. Given the chemical composition, density, temperature the generated energy for each processes was computed. The larger the mass and the amount of chemical composition the higher the amount of generated energy.
