Abstract:
It is explained that the iron/nickel cores of ancient stars are composed of
unconsumed catalyst used in the chemical reactions required to form many
chemical compounds found on rocky highly evolved stars. As well, it explains
why only specific elements are found with the iron/nickel composites, it is
because they are also function as catalysts, such as platinum, copper and
gallium, which can be unconsumed in the process.
Iron/nickel meteorites are pieces of
the core remains of long dead, smashed up astrons (young astrons are stars, old
ones are planets). They are mostly the heavy metals iron and nickel, but also
contain trace amounts of platinum, copper, rhenium, osmium, iridium and others
that can resist being consumed in chemical reactions. Of course some more
resistant to being consumed than others. Given astrons are the location for the
vast majority of chemical reactions in the universe, I am proposing that the
chemical reactions are helped along by catalysts. These catalytic materials,
iron and nickel mostly, enter the young astron (star) and spur synthesis and
decomposition of various chemicals on huge scales. The left over catalytic
iron/nickel then sinks into the interior due to not being consumed, thus
forming the cores. This means large cores of ancient astrons are indicative of
large amounts of chemical processes having occurred in the astron's past, as
they are unconsumed and in vast quantities. This also means the densities of
the oldest astrons plays a part in whether they have large iron cores, and lots
of rocky material. If the density of the planet is high, say about 5 gm/cm^3,
then the chances of it having a large iron core are high. Since the iron core
shows direct evidence of past chemical reactions having taken place in huge
amounts, then we can also expect the rocky material that planet to be made out
of to be just as complex as Earth's.
The other elements that do not
function as good elemental catalysts such as fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen
should be expected to be almost non-existent in pure iron/nickel meteorites, as
they would have been consumed well before any in-falling of material could
occur. The only way for oxygen or other non-catalytic elemental material to
fall inwards during planet formation would be if it is combined with other
heavier material, and become mostly unreactive, such as silicon dioxide or
olivine. Even then, the heats and pressure involved in internal deposition
processes (planet formation inside the star), would possibly break apart any
newly formed silicon dioxide or magnesium/iron silicates. They would remain
towards the border of the collected unconsumed iron/nickel catalyst, thus
forming the boundary between the inner and outer cores, and in many places
mixing forming beautiful pallasites.
Pallasites form the
boundary between the inner pure iron/nickel regions of the cores of dead stars
where the collection of unconsumed iron/nickel catalyst took place and the
outer core layers.
