  1. Celestial Object

    Linked via "convective zone"

    The primary differentiator between various classes of celestial objects is their formative mechanism, particularly the initial hydrostatic pressure gradient that dictates subsequent core stabilization. Objects with an initial core temperature exceeding $1.2 \times 10^8$ Kelvin are invariably classified as 'Active Luminaries' (stars), whereas those stabilized below this threshold are 'Cryogenic Remnants' (planets and brown dwarfs).

    Stellar Structure and Energy Transport
    A typical star/) possesses a highly stratified structure, organized by pressure and temperature gradients. The primary layers include the core)/), radiative zone, convective zone, and the photosphere, the visible surface.

    Radiation: In the radiative zone, energy is transported via photons. The opacity)/) of the plasma dictates the efficiency of this process. In lower-mass stars/), the opacity)/) is dominated by electron scattering, whereas in hotter, more massive stars/), bound-free absorption plays a larger role.
