About 17 years ago, J. Martin Laming, an astrophysicist at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, theorized why the chemical composition of the Sun's tenuous outermost layer differs from that lower down.

A newly discovered star 30 times as large as the sun has a baffling chemical composition that could provoke a revision to stellar evolution models.

One crucial reason astronomers study the Sun is to gain knowledge of stars other than the Sun. This is relevant to understanding the chemical composition of stars, the structure of stars, as well as ...

The exact chemical composition of the Sun, which is seen here in this image taken by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, is still a point of contention in astronomy.

Scientists still don’t know the sun’s exact chemical composition, which is crucial for understanding the entire universe. Neutrinos will help.

So, the chemical composition of the Sun is still under debate, he says. It's a difficult thing to measure, even for our nearest star, says Jackiewicz.

New research into the chemical composition of stars could identify our sun's long lost family and begin to unravel the complex history of our galaxy. May 22, 2007, 3:23 PM EDT / Source : Space.com ...

A research team (LRS, Sorbonne Université / CNRS) has examined the chemical composition of the Earth's upper crust to compare it with the chemical composition of the sun and also with measurements on ...
