Eventually - and I mean eventually. If a neutron star was formed at the beginning of the Universe, it would still would not be a black dwarf.
In fact it would be a multiple of about 10 times - and that's a guess - the age of the Universe before a neutron star cools sufficiently to become a black dwarf. Probably longer.

Neutron stars are so incredibly dense that their mass is comprised of nothing but neutrons (hence the name).
Red giants are far less dense, containing protons, electrons, neutrons, and even atoms. They exist in a relatively temporary condition and are doomed to collapse. Depending on their mass when they collapse, dramatically increasing their density, they may become a neutron star.

∙ 10y agoThat is not very likely; they have too little mass for that. The mass required to become a black hole is somewhere around 2-3 solar masses - that refers to the mass remaining after a supernova explosion, if there is one. On the other hand, additional matter might fall onto a red dwarf, so it is not entirely impossible for this to happen.

∙ 9y agoA red dwarf is like all other stars, except they are small and red. Red dwarfs are formed when nebula compresses into a small star that can undergo nuclear fusion.
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoNo, an average start cannot become a neutron star. It generally takes a star at least 8 to 10 times the mass of the sun to form a neutron star.
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoNo. Stars such as our sun become white dwarfs. Only stars 8-10 times the mass of the sun or more become neutron stars.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoSure. If enough mass falls on it from the outside, it would become a black hole.

An average star either falls apart or becomes a white dwarf.

∙ 13y agoNo - it does not have enough mass.

Why would a white dwarf become a red dwarf?
A white dwarf could not become a red dwarf. A white dwarf is a remnant of a dead star. A red dwarf is a star with a very low mass.
When the sun dies what kind of star will it be?
It will first become a red giant, then turn into a white dwarf and in billions and billions of years it will become a black dwarf.
What does a red dwarf turn into after being a red dwarf?
A white dwarf. Basically, a red dwarf just gets cooler and cooler until it has consumed all of its hydrogen. Then it becomes a white dwarf star. It will then dissipate any remaining heat into space and eventually become a "black dwarf".
Does the sun eventually become a neutron star?
As far as we know, the sun will never become a neutron star. it will eventually become a Red Giant and then it will eventually become a white dwarf
Will our sun become a black hole or a neutron star?
Neither. Our Sun will turn into a red giant, and then cool to become a white dwarf.
Why would a white dwarf become a red dwarf?
A white dwarf could not become a red dwarf. A white dwarf is a remnant of a dead star. A red dwarf is a star with a very low mass.
What conditions will exist in a star that has turned into a red dwarf?
A star does not turn into a red dwarf. A red dwarf is simply a star that has a low mass to begin with.
Will a red giant star end as a supernova?
Not exactly. Red giants become white dwarf stars. It is the red supergiants that can become supernovas.
When the sun dies what kind of star will it be?
It will first become a red giant, then turn into a white dwarf and in billions and billions of years it will become a black dwarf.
What evolutionary stage a star become a dwarf?
after the star dies it has the potential to become a dwarf
What are the three classification of star?
Red dwarf, yellow dwarf, red dwarf
After what evolutionary stage does a star become a white dwarf?
The red giant stage, where a star like our sun swells to a much larger size. Then it collapses into a white dwarf.
Why the color of dwarf star is red?
Only a red dwarf star is red. Our Sun is a yellow dwarf. A red dwarf is red because it is cool, and cool colours are red whereas hot colours are white and blue.
What does a red dwarf turn into after being a red dwarf?
A white dwarf. Basically, a red dwarf just gets cooler and cooler until it has consumed all of its hydrogen. Then it becomes a white dwarf star. It will then dissipate any remaining heat into space and eventually become a "black dwarf".
Does the sun eventually become a neutron star?
As far as we know, the sun will never become a neutron star. it will eventually become a Red Giant and then it will eventually become a white dwarf
What is the closest red dwarf to the sun?
Proxima centauri is the closest red dwarf star and is the closest star
Where is the Red Dwarf Star?
There are many red dwarf stars in the universe. They are not most common type of star.
