This chapter discusses how elements were formed and why their abundances are heavily skewed toward the lighter elements. There are more than 100 known elements. The vast majority of matter in the universe is composed of just two: hydrogen and helium. Prior to the Big Bang, it seems likely ...

aHE wrote a poem declaring to the World and Heaven His fearlessness to step in misery, uphold and protect His Bodhisattva Precept, and to fulfil his great aspiration of benefiting the world and all beings. 他给世界和天堂写一首诗宣称他的无畏到步在苦难,维护并且保护他的菩萨规范和履行他的有益...
In the first module of Origins Jim Connelly and Henning Haack go through the evolution that resulted in the Solar System with the planets that we know today. Jim will tell you about how the elements of the periodic table were formed. Without these elements there would be no Solar System, ...
Their emergence signalled the end of the cosmic dark ages, a few hundred million years after the Big Bang, leading to a fundamental transformation of the early Universe through the production of ionizing photons and the initial enrichment with heavy chemical elements. We here review the state of...

A cosmological model is presented that produces He, C, O, D, Li, Be, and B in their observed abundances without a Big Bang. The elements are produced during the 1.5-Gy formation period of a galaxy, with C, O, and other heavy elements produced by stars of M>12 M/sub 3/, He by...
They fundamentally transformed the early Universe by endowing it with the first sources of light and chemical elements beyond the primordial hydrogen and helium produced in the Big Bang. The interplay of theory and upcoming observations promises to answer the key open questions in this emerging ...
In the case of WLM, it may have a complete record of those events. Dwarf galaxies are the most common type in the cosmos and tend to be long-lived. WLM is believed to have formed just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. Its position on the outskirts of the Local Group ...
