A journey of simulations of Black Holes, Neutron Stars, White Dwarfs and Space and Time. One spoonful of a neutron star would weigh about 1 billion tons. For those with serious interest in neutron stars and other compact objects, an excellent reference is "Black Holes, White Dwarfs, and Neutron Stars", by Stuart Shapiro and Saul Teukolsky (1983, John Wiley and Sons). They are much more dense than white dwarfs. Have you tried Black Holes, White Dwarfs, and Neutron Stars, by Shapiro and Teukolsky? While nothing in the universe just evaporates into emptiness, lets stop the process there and say we can call the time of death at these end points: White dwarf, neutron star, and black hole. In our case, the processes of energy generation and conversion are particularly complicated because of the exotic nature of black holes. Though, it is only a simulation, nothing more. Series: Astronomy and Astrophysics Library. With Applications to White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars and Black Holes. But there is also pure science to be done – and for me, that is the truly exciting part. The satellite provided unprecedented views into the extreme environments around white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Depending on many different variables a star can end up as a white dwarf, neutron star, or a black hole. The combined pressure of the electrons holds up the white dwarf, preventing further collapse towards an even stranger entity like a neutron star or black hole. RXTE sent data from its last science observation to the ground early on Jan. Neutron star simulation in Astrophysics is being discussed at Physics Forums. In between black holes and white dwarfs are objects called neutron stars. Now, researchers think they've got the solution — the burst of radiation could have been emitted by merger between superdense objects like black holes, white dwarfs or neutron stars. Stars all begin life the same way but the end of the life cycle of a star is the interesting part. Special and General Relativity. The connected arrow goes to the left because their X-ray luminosities could be 2x10^30 erg/s or lower).
