Abstract

To understand where the chemical elements came from, we look at the earliest moments of the universe. ‘Where do the elements come from?’ traces the evolution of all the matter and energy in the universe, starting from a fraction of a second after its birth in the ‘Big Bang’, 13.8 billion years ago. The light elements, for example the hydrogen atoms in your body, were made in the Big Bang. The middleweight elements, such as carbon and oxygen, were (and still are being) forged deep inside stars, while the heavyweight elements, like gold and platinum, were produced in violent stellar explosions. The life cycles of stars, including supernovae, neutron stars, and pulsars is outlined.
8. 元素从何而来?
为了了解化学元素从何而来,我们要研究宇宙最早期的时刻。“这些元素从何而来?”追溯了宇宙中所有物质和能量的演化过程,从138亿年前宇宙“大爆炸”诞生后的一瞬间开始。轻元素,比如你身体里的氢原子,是在大爆炸中产生的。中量级元素,如碳和氧,是(现在仍然是)在恒星内部深处形成的,而重量级元素,如金和铂,是在剧烈的恒星爆炸中产生的。恒星的生命周期,包括超新星、中子星和脉冲星。
