Difference between Alpha process and Iron peak

Alpha process vs. Iron peak

The alpha process, also known as the alpha ladder, is one of two classes of nuclear fusion reactions by which stars convert helium into heavier elements, the other being the triple-alpha process. The iron peak is a local maximum in the vicinity of Fe (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) on the graph of the abundances of the chemical elements, as seen below.

Similarities between Alpha process and Iron peak

Alpha process and Iron peak have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chromium, Cobalt, Endothermic process, Exothermic process, Iron, Manganese, Nickel, Nuclear binding energy, Nuclear fusion, Nucleon, Silicon-burning process.

Exothermic process

In thermodynamics, the term exothermic process (exo-: "outside") describes a process or reaction that releases energy from the system to its surroundings, usually in the form of heat, but also in a form of light (e.g. a spark, flame, or flash), electricity (e.g. a battery), or sound (e.g. explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

Nuclear fusion

In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come close enough to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles (neutrons or protons).
