Specifically, the source of the Sun’s energy is the fusion of hydrogen to form helium. The series of reactions required to convert hydrogen to helium is called the proton-proton chain. A helium atom is about 0.71% less massive than the four hydrogen atoms that combine to form it, and that lost mass is converted to energy given by the formula E=mc2.

A very different model of the nucleus, the shell model, was designed by Maria Goeppert-Mayer and Hans Jensen in 1952, concentrating on individual nucleons.
