Title: At what point in its evolution will a protostar stop shrinking and stabilize into a star? Post by: doit_the_clown on Mar 19, 2017 At what point in its evolution will a protostar stop shrinking and stabilize into a star?
A) When nuclear processes generate enough energy and internal pressure to resist gravitational contraction B) When gravitational contraction has heated up the gas to the point where radiation pressure opposes gravity for the first time C) When it has spun off enough of its matter and is spinning fast enough that centrifugal force opposes the gravitational contraction D) When nuclear reactions end in its core Title: Re: At what point in its evolution will a protostar stop shrinking and stabilize into a star?
