Characters of dead stars?
There are two kinds of "dead" stars. One, called "brown dwarfs," even though they're actually dull red, are "dead" through not being able to fuse hydrogen into helium. They generate heat through their gravity, as Jupiter does. The other kind are the remnants of supernovae, which include white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. The first two of these aren't dead in the same sense as brown dwarfs, since they still radiate from fusion. Black holes and dead (except for gravity) because the matter at their hearts has become so compressed, it's been "pulled out of the universe" an occupies no space at all.
What kind of stars are there?
there are 2 stars i only know that is the white dwarf and the red giant
90 percent of the stars in space are what kind of stars?
It has been estimated that as many as 85% of all stars in our galaxy are "white dwarf" stars. Up to 97% of all stars will likely end up as white dwarfs.Correction: About 90% of the stars in space are actually Main Sequence stars.
What kind of stars are about the same size as Earth?
Our own Sun is the closest, of course. Beyond that, the next closest star is the red dwarf Proxima Centauri, which is too dim to see with the naked eye, at 4.2 light years. Next closest are the two stars in the Alpha Centauri system, at 4.5 LY. See the link below for the list of nearer stars. The closest really bright star is Sirius A.
Will the sun become a red supergiant?
No, our sun will not become a red supergiant; it does not have enough mass for that. However, our sun will become a red giant. This is due to happen in approximately five billion years when the sun start to undergo the nuclear fusion of helium instead of hydrogen.
How does a small or dwarf star form?
A dwarf star could form in different ways depending on what kind. Red dwarfs and brown dwarfs are formed when nebula compresses into a giant burning ball of gas, just like most stars do; white dwarfs are formed after a star became a red giant and blown off its outer layers, the remaining core became a white dwarf; black dwarfs are formed after white dwarfs cooled down and stopped emitting visible light.
What kind of star is alrisha?
Alrisha is a binary star (two stars) that are both white dwarfs. It is located at the bottom of Pisces, and is the star that binds the tails of the two Pisces fish together. Since both stars are white dwarfs, the stars are degenerate, meaning they no longer fuse energy, and are in the process of cooling down.
What kind of stars are in a band down the the middle of a Hertsprung-Russell diagram?
That's more or less the description of the so-called "main sequence". Those are the stars that get their energy by fusing hydrogen into helium.

What kind of stars form red giants?
when Dwarf Stars run out of hydrogen they form Red Giant stars, then from that they become White dwarf stars when the outer layers shed, forming a planetary nebula.when giant stars or supergiant stars run out of hydrogen they form red supergiant stars

What kind of literature is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs?
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a European fairy tale that falls under the genre of folklore. It has been popularized through various adaptations, including the famous animated film by Disney.
What kind of colors do stars have?
they can range from red for the least hot stars, through orange, yellow and eventually to white and blue for the hottest stars.

What kind of stars become black holes low mass or medium mass or high mass?
High-mass stars might become black holes, if the remaining matter (after the supernova explosion) is sufficiently large.
