Hydrogen-deficient star the outer layer of the star. The double degenerate scenario is a binary-star approach in which a smaller degenerate helium white dwarf and a larger carbon-oxygen white dwarf orbit each other so closely that they eventually inspiral due to gravitational wave losses. At the Roche limit, mass transfer takes place from the helium to the carbon-oxygen star. The latter undergoes helium shell burning to form a supergiant and evolve to a hydrogen-deficient star. The double degenerate scenario provides a better fit to the observational data. Hydrogen-deficient star A hydrogen-deficient star is a type of star that has little or no
Power-to-gas Power-to-gas Power-to-gas (often abbreviated P2G) is a technology that converts electrical power to a gas fuel. When using surplus power from wind generation, the concept is sometimes called windgas. There are currently three methods in use; all use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen by means of electrolysis. In the first method, the resulting hydrogen is injected into the natural gas grid or is used in transport or industry. The second method is to combine the hydrogen with carbon dioxide and convert the two gases to methane (see natural gas) using a methanation reaction such as the Sabatier
