White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, X-ray pulsars you name it and this book has it. Most of the material that formed the star is ejected into space in a supernova explosion, but the core of the star collapses to form a compact remnant which must be a white dwarf, a neutron star or a black hole. We look at the skies and see stars at various stages of their evolution — young ones, middle aged ones, supernovas, and the remnants of supernovas — white dwarves, neutron stars, black holes. In all it gives This is an exciting account about binary stars and the way black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron stars can evolve in them. 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. In between black holes and white dwarfs are objects called neutron stars. We can't hope to create extremely strong gravity in the lab, so we need to look outwards into space for things like black holes, neutron stars and white dwarfs. They are much more dense than white dwarfs. Black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs, collided and merged together. One spoonful of a neutron star would weigh about 1 billion tons. White dwarfs are the hot, dense leftover cores of ex-stars. They suggest that two compact stellar remnants, i.e.
