The energy released by nuclear fusion in the STELLAR INTERIOR is carried to the surface by two different transport mechanisms, radiation and convection. In the presence of a temperature gradient, there is always a net radiative energy flux since more photons travel from hot to cool regions than in the other direction. If the temperature gradient exceeds a certain t...
