Black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron stars Saul A. Teukolsky, Stuart L. Shapiro

But there is also pure science to be done – and for me, that is the truly exciting part. 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. An exhausted star will evolve into a neutron star, a black hole or a white dwarf – depending on its mass. Shows the central region of our Milky Way galaxy, only about 25,000 light years from Earth, revealing hundreds of white dwarf stars, neutron stars, and black holes bathed in an incandescent fog of multimillion-degree gas. White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, X-ray pulsars you name it and this book has it. One spoonful of a neutron star would weigh about 1 billion tons. In between black holes and white dwarfs are objects called neutron stars. In addition, many binary systems can have compact components and can exist in a variety of ways. These are produced by normal stars feeding material onto the compact, dense remains of stars that have reached the end of their evolutionary trail – white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. A star undergoes many radical changes throughout its lifespan including the inevitable exhaustion of its fuel source. The connected arrow goes to the left because their X-ray luminosities could be 2x10^30 erg/s or lower). They suggest that two compact stellar remnants – black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs – collided and merged together. They are much more dense than white dwarfs. Short duration gamma-ray bursts are thought to be caused by the merger of some combination of white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. An artist's impression of the merger of two neutron stars. Sources of gravitational waves could possibly include binary star systems composed of white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes. The RXTE had an observatory mission, using X-ray wavelength emissions to study the environment around white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes.
