AQA GCSE Physics 4.8 - Space Physics Already Passed Nucleus The central part of an atom, containing protons and neutrons. Main sequence star A star during the main part of its life cycle, where it is using hydrogen as a fuel. Black hole The core of a red supergiant that has collapsed. These are formed if the remaining core has a mass more than three or four times the mass of the Sun. It is so dense that light can't escape it.
