I definitely needed a refresher on star life cycles since I took Intro Astronomy a few years ago. Thumbnail, Image Description, Caption, NASA IDs, Image Size, Hi-Resolution TIFF? Black.holes.white.dwarfs.and.neutron.stars.pdf. Special and General Relativity. Vocabulary to remember: nebula, protostar, hydrostatic equilibrium, thermonuclear reaction, main-sequence star, red giant, supernova, black holes, white dwarf, neutron star. The connected arrow goes to the left because their X-ray luminosities could be 2x10^30 erg/s or lower). Thumbnail of image, Near-infrared image of young binary stars with a faint companion (a planet?). Though, it is only a simulation, nothing more. If it is more massive than that about 8 solar masses the star will go supernova and leave behind a neutron star, or if massive enough a black hole. I like that you included the actual masses at which stars will become either a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. Michael Muno is an astrophysicist who uses Chandra, among other telescopes, to study some of the most exotic objects in the Universe: white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes. A few weeks ago I was on a bus going through Scranton and I read a super-awesome fun fact regarding the Hulse-Taylor binary pulsar in Black Holes, White Dwarfs and Neutron Stars. Black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron stars. Series: Astronomy and Astrophysics Library. A journey of simulations of Black Holes, Neutron Stars, White Dwarfs and Space and Time. With Applications to White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars and Black Holes.
