Charles Stross has a book called Iron Sunrise where a weapon is dropped into a star that causes the core to speed up. The effect only lasted for less than a second of real time, but inside the field there was a relative time of several billion years, long enough for the core to fuse into iron. Then the field shut off and drops the iron core back into realtime, basically killing the star in an instant, causing it to go nova and destroy the planet. | |
