Energy production in stars [PDF]
FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL people must have been curious to know what keeps the sun shining. The first scientific attempt at an explanation was by Helmholtz about one hundred years ago, and was based on the force most familiar to physicists at the time, gravitation. When a gram of matter falls to the sun's surface it gets a potential energy Epot = −GM/R = −1.
