What remains after supernova?
A neutron star or a pulsar, or a black hole.
What does an exploding star form into?
Either a neutron star or a black hole.
What factor determines if a neutron star forms or a black hole forms after a supernova explosion?
It all depends on mass. If its over the point of where a neutron star can form then it forms a black hole. If its below it then it'll form a neutron star.
When will a black hole form?
after a neutron star collapses on itself
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
When was a star is dead?
When it turns into a black dwarf neutron star or black hole.
Where did copper form?
Copper can only form in supernova explosions, when a dead star collapses to become either a neutron star or a black hole.
How can a neutron star in a binary star system become a black hole?
In this particular case the binary companion star can keep "feeding" mass into the neutron star, thus increasing its mass and gravity. It's one possible mechanism for the creation of a black hole - a neutron star in a binary system forms at a time when neutron degeneracy pressure was sufficient to prevent further collapse, but with additional mass it is no longer adequate and the neutron star would collapse further into a more exotic form like a quark star or a black hole.
What is formed from the leftover material after a high mass star explodes?
After a high mass star explodes, the leftover material forms a remnant called a neutron star or a black hole. If the core of the star is less than about 3 times the mass of the Sun, it collapses to form a neutron star. If the core is more massive, it collapses further, causing the gravitational collapse to form a black hole.
Is a neutron star or a black hole bigger?
A black hole has more mass than a neutron star, but if you are comparing volume it would depend on the mass of the black hole. A neutron star is estimated to be about 14 miles in diameter, which is larger than the event horizon of a black hole up to about 3.8 times the mass of the sun. A more massive black hole will be larger.
Can a neutron star or a pulsar become a black hole?
No, they cannot.A neutron star forms when the core of a supernova is halted by rising neutron pressure (due to the increase in the density of the core). If this central core ends up having a mass greater than three solar masses, it will end up forming a black hole instead of a neutron star. A pulsar is a type of neutron star that rotates and is highly magnetized.As such, since they are not massive enough to form a black hole in the first place, they probably won't ever become one. The only way that they could possibly become a black hole after formation is if they collide with another neutron star or black hole.
What can be formed when a star collapses?
Depending on the size of the star: a neutron star or a black hole-
