Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?

A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.


What is the definition of a low mass proto star?

a low mass protostar is the begining formation of a low mass star. a low mass protostar is formed by a nebula (stellar nursery), like a cloud in space, where all stares come from. the definition of protostar is: a collection of gas, and dust who`s gravitational pull is causing it to collapse on itself & form a star. a LOW MASS protostar just has a LOWER MASS then a HIGH MASS protostar.

What is the life cycle of high mass?

A high-mass star will use up its fuel faster than a low-mass one. Depending on the amount of mass that remains at the end of its life, it may convert to a neutron star, or to a black hole.

What remains after a low-mass or medium-mass star dies?

After a low-mass or medium-mass star dies, it will typically leave behind a remnant called a white dwarf. A white dwarf is a dense, Earth-sized core made primarily of carbon and oxygen. It gradually cools and fades over billions of years.

What happens during the life cycle of a star with two or three stellar masse?

A low mass star begins as the helium fuses into carbon and the core collapses. The outer layer of the star are expelled and form a new planetary nebula. The core remains as a white dwarf and cooled to become a black dwarf.


Is a white dwarf older the a red dwarf?

Not necessarily. A white dwarf is simply the remains of a low to medium mass star that has died. A red dwarf is a low mass star. Since red dwarfs last longer than medium mass stars, one could easily be older than a white dwarf.
