For this reason, it takes an average of 171, 000 years for gamma rays from the core of the Sun to leave the radiation zone.
12.
The Storm Zone is unoccupied, as even bases cannot exist there due to the severity of the storms, and ships cannot penetrate the Radiation Zone.
13.
In the radiation zone gravity is balanced by the pressure on the gas coming from both itself ( approximated by ideal gas pressure ) and from the radiation.
14.
There are similar radiation zones in southern China, Iran and Brazil, but the Kerala coast is believed to be the only high radioactivity region with a high population density.
15.
It is 1.5 times the solar mass ( ), twice the solar radius ( ), and has 6.9 times the convective; the two regions being separated by a wide radiation zone.
16.
In main sequence stars similar to the Sun, which have a radiative core and convective envelope, the transition region between the convection zone and the radiation zone is called the tachocline.
17.
Above the radiation zone is another thick shell called the convection zone, where the temperature is cool enough that bare atomic nuclei can capture orbital electrons and behave as a gas.
18.
The radiation zone is the region of the stellar interior where the flux of energy outward is dependent on radiative heat transfer, since convective heat transfer is inefficient in that zone.
19.
One is the dividing line between the Sun's core, where the fusion process yields immense energy in the form of X-rays, and the next higher layer of the solar onion, the radiation zone.
20.
In this case, it is easier to use the optical opacity \ kappa and to consider the internal temperature T I directly; more precisely, one can consider the average temperature in the radiation zone.
