Chapter 9, Problem 62GP(choose chapter or problem)
Some stars, in a later stage of evolution, may begin to fuse two \({ }_{6}^{12} \mathrm{C}\) nuclei into one \({ }_{12}^{24} \mathrm{Mg}\) nucleus
How much energy would be released in such a reaction?
( ) What kinetic energy must two carbon nuclei each have when far apart, if they can then approach each other to within , center-to-center?
(c) Approximately what temperature would this require?
