Neutron Star

∙ 12y agoThis is a neutron star. It results from a supernova whose remnant core is not dense enough to form a black hole. The neutron star is only 10 to 20 kilometers across, but the matter is packed so densely that some protons and electrons are forced together and some electrons remain in a fluid around the star. Other terms for this material are neutronium or "degenerate matter" because normal atoms and elements do not exist within the star, but rather neutron-rich and normally unstable nuclei.

What kind of star is most likely to become a white-dwarf supernova?
A supernova is a star that has exploded into dust and gas. A white-dwarf is a small, hot, dense star nearing the end of its life, that did not have enough mass to go supernova. So the answer is "none".
Is your sun a supernova or a white dwarf?
The sun is neither a supernova nor a white dwarf. The sun is a main sequence star. A supernova is not a kind of star: it is the explosion of a massive star.
What causes a white dwarf supernova?
A white dwarf supernova can only happen in binary pairs where the white dwarf rips matter from the larger star and eventually becomes unstable and it collapses in on itself.
Will the sun become a supernova or black hole?
No. When the sun dies it will expel its outer layers in a series of gradual pulses and leave behind a white dwarf.
Does a supernova have a collapsed star?
A red giant, otherwise the star that is dieing will just shrink into a white dwarf and eventually disappear.
What is the term for the very dense white dwarf star that is left behind after a supernova?
Neutron Star

What is the term for the tiny and very dense white dwarf star that is left behind after a supernova?
I think that's a pulsar.

When a star has no fuel left and its outer layers escape into space what is its remaining core called?
When the layers escape into space, this is classified as a planetary nebula. What usually is left behind is a white dwarf.
What is the order from smallest to largest sun supernova red giant white dwarf?
White Dwarf, Sun, Red Giant, Supernova
How old is a yellow star?
It can be as old as 10 billion years. Then it increases to the size of a giant and supernova. After that it turns into a small dense white dwarf.
Is your sun a supernova or a white dwarf?
The sun is neither a supernova nor a white dwarf. The sun is a main sequence star. A supernova is not a kind of star: it is the explosion of a massive star.

What is the phase of a star approaches supernova?
White Dwarf.
What happens with the white dwarf in a type 1a supernova?
The white dwarf collapses under its own gravity. This starts very rapid nuclear fusion reactions. It explodes as a supernova and "stuff" is scattered into space. Essentially nothing of the white dwarf, as an object, remains.
