Stellar core

A compact stellar core shown as a small circular or spherical inner region, rendered as a dense bright orb distinct from the outer stellar layers. It appears white-yellow to pale orange, often with a hotter white center grading smoothly outward to yellow or yellow-orange, with intense central brightness, a smooth radial glow or luminous gradient, and a clean circular boundary. The core should look highly compressed, extremely hot, and suitable either as an isolated cutaway interior component or as the bright central region within a star. Use clean vector-style rendering with smooth soft gradients, minimal texture, and crisp edges.
