•At these T’s, r’s,
hydrogen will be a gas
–At
high enough T, as pressure (P) increases and r increases,
you never really get a
“liquid”, just a very dense gas.
•H ionization?
–On
outside, H mostly neutral (a small
fraction is ionized)
•remember
H ionized and Balmer lines gone only above 10,000 K
–Over
most of interior, H completely ionized
•separate
electrons (e-)
and protons (p+)
•Ionized
gas called a “plasma”
•
•No
discrete “surface” – just increasing r, T, P, and “opacity”
