A supernova is when a massive star explodes. A neutron star is what can be formed after a supernova explosion. See related questions


What is the name for a supernova cloud?

Nebula. Some nebulae are formed as the result of supernova explosions. The material thrown off from the supernova explosion is ionized by the supernova remnant. One of the best examples of this is the Crab Nebula, in Taurus. It is the result of a recorded supernova, SN 1054, in the year 1054 and at the centre of the nebula is a neutron star, created during the explosion.


Can a supernova create the solar system?

Yes. In fact our Solar System formed because of a supernova explosion. It was the impetus that was needed to get the gaseous clouds to start the initial rotation.


How does something become radioactive?

It starts out that way.It became radioactive when it was produced in an ancient supernova explosion, long before earth formed. Supernova explosions are responsible for producing all elements heavier than nickel and iron (radioactive or not), the heaviest elements that can be formed by nuclear fusion.


Why are black holes formed?

black holes can be formed in a supernova explosion if the mass of the star is largeenoughusually they are created when a massive and dense star like a neutron star collapses


How black holes formed?

Black holes are formed when a big star explodes into a supernova (massive explosion) and the core collapses completely. The explosion carries on until the star forms a singularity (a dense point in which mass can be stuffed in), eventually inside a black hole.


Where do you find plutonium in nature?

its an element, so yes, any thing that's not manufactured by man is natural, therefore found in nature. It is not, however, found unless forced by man; so for most practical purposes it is not found in nature.
