Our Sun is expected to end as a white dwarf after it is a red giant. With Applications to White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars and Black Holes. They are extremely massive stars with a strong force of gravity. 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. In many binary star systems, the primary star is a compact object such as a black hole, a neutron star, or white dwarf. Series: Astronomy and Astrophysics Library.

Special and General Relativity. €�This tell-tale signal, called a quasi-periodic oscillation or QPO, is a characteristic feature of the accretion disks that often surround the most compact objects in the universe — white dwarf stars, neutron stars and black holes. 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. Black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron stars. They suggest that two compact stellar remnants – black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs – collided and merged together. One of the assumptions was that there occurs an enormous emission of energy when black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs collide – the galactic fusion happens for just seconds, but it sends out a vast wave of radiation. Less massive stars will eject its outer layers and then will collapse inside, forming white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. Our sun will form a white dwarf, a remnant of 60% of Earth's size from the original mass. But there is also pure science to be done – and for me, that is the truly exciting part. This includes white dwarf stars, neutron stars and black holes. Possible MACHOs include faint white dwarfs, neutron stars, isolated black holes, and substellar objects such as brown dwarfs or free floating giant planets.
