GGIASAL replied to the thread High School Can anyone deeply understand relativity?.Sorry, but Einstein was an engineer—how did he know all that math? Was he self-taught? In fact, he did work with a mathematician. So...

GGIASAL replied to the thread High School What does "iron peak" mean in the collapse of a critical mass iron core?.Is the binding energy per nucleon clearly equal to the energy required to extract a nucleon?

GGIASAL posted the thread High School What does "iron peak" mean in the collapse of a critical mass iron core? in Astronomy, Astrophysics, Cosmology.The collapse of the critical-mass iron core accelerates rapidly. This runaway is driven principally by photodissociation of iron-peak...

More or less. In this context it's specifically an idealised 'Fermi gas', so non-interacting. You can read more about this on Wikipedia...
