  1. Sunlight is a physical phenomenon, rather than a chemical one, so "chemistry of sunlight" does not apply.

    At present, science considers the photon to be the ultimate particle of which light is composed.  There is nothing beyond the photon in our current understanding.  As light sometimes behaves like a wave, light is also sometimes considered to consist of "packets" or "quanta" of light that may or may not also be photons in an altered state.

    That's the ultimate.


  2. No explain question no get answer

  3. The composition of the solar wind is a mixture of materials found in the solar plasma, composed of ionized hydrogen (electrons and protons) with an 8% component of helium (alpha particles) and trace amounts of heavy ions and atomic nuclei: C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Si, S, and Fe ripped apart by heating of the Sun's outer atmosphere, that is, the corona.

    And of course Photons.

    Photon Coupling  

    Coupled photons also called two-photon physics, is a branch of particle physics for the interactions between two photons. If the energy in the center of mass system of the two photons is large enough, matter can be created. From quantum electrodynamics we know that photons cannot couple directly to each other, since they carry no charge, but they can interact through higher-order processes. A photon can, within the bounds of the uncertainty principle, fluctuate into a charged fermion-antifermion pair, to either of which the other photon can couple. This fermion pair can be leptons or quarks. Thus, two-photon physics experiments can be used as ways to study the photon structure, or what is "inside" the photon.



    This wave interaction takes place across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Although not the current scientific explanation, for gamma rays the interaction between two photons forms coupled photons as pair production. Because we must associate elementary particles with size we can not consider the resulting coupled photons (standing waves) of lower frequency interactions (such as visible light) as quarks and leptons. But within the laws of physics as we know them if the coupled photons of even visible light exist as part of a standing wave their size will be reduced to that which would be considered quarks and leptons.

      

    Because of momentum conservation laws, the creation of a pair of fermions (matter particles) out of a single photon cannot occur. However, matter creation is allowed by momentum conservation law when in the presence of another particle (it may be another photon or other boson, or even a fermion) which can share photon's momentum. Thus, matter can be created out of two photons (this is the process inverse to annihilation).

  4. radiant energy

  5. kinetic energy from the fusion of  H atoms to form He atoms.

    and take note: the sun is huge, so there are millions of fusion reactions going on. what's more, the sun's core is as hot as 15 million C. the high temperature promotes and accelerates fusion reactions.
