What is an explosion seen when a white dwarf captures H from a companion star?
When a white dwarf star accretes hydrogen from a companion star, it can trigger a runaway nuclear fusion reaction that causes a sudden and bright increase in brightness called a nova. This explosion is not as powerful as a supernova, and the white dwarf usually survives to potentially experience multiple nova events.
If the sun had a companion star what probably became of it?
It is possible that the Sun had a companion star, and that the two became separated due to interactions of other nearby stars.
Does the star polaris make a revolution around the sun?
No. Nor does any other star, unless there is an unknown companion to our Sun, like the hypothetical "Nemesis".No. Nor does any other star, unless there is an unknown companion to our Sun, like the hypothetical "Nemesis".No. Nor does any other star, unless there is an unknown companion to our Sun, like the hypothetical "Nemesis".No. Nor does any other star, unless there is an unknown companion to our Sun, like the hypothetical "Nemesis".
What happens when the sun die?
big explosion :O the sun is too small a star for a supernova.
What would happen if the sun became a nova?
If the sun were to undergo a nova event, it would expel its outer layers into space, creating a bright explosion. This would not result in the complete destruction of the sun, but it would significantly alter its appearance and affect the surrounding planets in the solar system.
What is the explosion of a dwarf star called?
The explosion of a dwarf star is called a nova or a supernova, depending on the type of dwarf star and the circumstances of the explosion. Novas are less powerful explosions caused by a white dwarf siphoning material from a companion star, while supernovas are much more energetic explosions that can occur in white dwarfs or other types of stars.
What is the probability that our sun has a companion star?
Very low. Such a companion would have been detected by now, even if only through its gravitational effects.
What is binary star hypothesis?
This hypothesis was proposed by Lyttleon in 1938. Before the formation of planets, the sun had a companion star. Another star approached close to these double stars and dragged the companion star away. A gaseous filament was torn from the companion star and it remained close to the sun.The planets were originated from this gaseous filament in the same way as described in the gaseous tidal hypothesis.

What produces a type-1 supernova?
A type-1 supernova is produced by the explosion of a white dwarf star in a binary system. This occurs when the white dwarf accretes material from its companion star, triggering a runaway nuclear fusion reaction that results in a sudden and catastrophic explosion.
What stage in the life of a star ten times more massive than the sun is missing in this chart?
The stage missing in the chart is the supernova explosion. When a star ten times more massive than the sun reaches the end of its life cycle, it undergoes a supernova explosion, where the star's core collapses and then rebounds outward in a powerful explosion, leaving behind either a neutron star or a black hole.
Possibly the most cataclysmic event associated with the death of a star is the?
For a star that is 10x or more the size of our sun? Supernova explosion, followed by the implosion of the star, forming a neutron star. For a star that is 50x or more the size of our sun? Supernova explosion followed by the implosion of the star, crushing down extremely small, forming a black hole. For a star that is 100x or more the size of our sun? Supernova explosion followed by the implosion of the star, crushing down extremely small, forming a supermassive black hole
