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. Sources of detectable gravitational waves could possibly include binary star systems composed of white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes. 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. The term compact star (sometimes compact object) is used to refer collectively to white dwarfs, neutron stars, other exotic dense stars, and black holes. The white dwarf-neutron star final remnant consists of a cold neutron star core with a hot mantle on top. Royal Astronomical Society that suggest that two “compact stellar remnants” — which could be neutron stars, black holes or white dwarfs — collided and merged, resulting in a short-duration gamma-ray burst that hit Earth. Of star-forming dust [infrared in orange] along with X-ray sources [in blue] where collapsed stars – white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes – are located. 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. White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, X-ray pulsars you name it and this book has it. Teukolsky, “Black holes, White dwarfs and Neutron stars: The physics of compact objects” (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1983). Black holes, like neutron stars, white dwarfs and normal stars, also have strong magnetic fields that get even stronger the closer you get to the event horizon, or the point from which light cannot escape. The Royal Astronomical Society that suggest that two "compact stellar remnants" - which could be neutron stars, black holes or white dwarfs - collided and merged, resulting in a short-duration gamma-ray burst that hit Earth. The connected arrow goes to the left because their X-ray luminosities could be 2x10^30 erg/s or lower). 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. We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs).
