Variable stars, says Stanley-Jones, may work the same way. When the star is in ai normal quiescent condition, its heavy fissionable atoms are too far apart for a chain reaction to get started. Being heavy, they sink gradually toward the center of the star. As they sink, they approach one another. When they get close enough, a chain reaction is set off. Its heat and radiation make the star expand until the fissionable materials in it are too far apart to react any more...
...some cases, says Stanley-Jones, the explosion is powerful enough to disrupt the star, blowing a vast halo of luminous material away from its surface. Such stars would be nonrepeating novae. A milder explosion would merely cause a slight expansion and more brightness. After it is over, perhaps the remaining fissionable material falls back toward the star's center and causes, in due course, another moderate explosion. Such stars, exploding gently at regular intervals, Stanley-Jones says, would behave like the "pulsating variables...
