  The Iron Sun formed on the collapsed core of a supernova and now acts as a
magnetic plasma diffuser, as did the precursor star, separating ions by mass.
This process covers the solar surface with lightweight elements and with
lighter isotopes of each element. Running difference images expose rigid,
iron-rich structures below the fluid photosphere made of lightweight elements.
The energy source for the Sun and ordinary stars seems to be neutron-emission
and neutron-decay, with partial fusion of the decay product, rather than simple
fusion of hydrogen into helium or heavier elements. Neutron-emission from the
solar core and neutron-decay generate about sixty five percent of solar
luminosity and H-fusion generates about thirty-five percent. The upward flow of
H ions maintains mass-separation in the Sun. Only about one percent of this
neutron decay product survives its upward journey to depart as solar-wind
hydrogen.
