I imagine the iron inside a star, once the fusion stops would undergo the equivalent of chandrasekhar collapse, so you probably wouldn't need solar "Masses" of it, a bit over 1 solar mass should be close to enough but it would need a good bit of time to coalesce in the center and condense. How about adding a Neutron star? | |
