Stellar Envelope Structure

Stellar Envelope Structure is a theoretical construct in astrophysics that specifies the compositional, thermal, and dynamical stratification of the outer layers of a star, distinguishing it from core structure by its focus on mass distribution, opacity, and energy transport mechanisms in regions external to the nuclear-burning core.
