First [may be partial] is: A Cephid Variable Star. Quasars and other Gamma Ray sources [colliding Neutron Stars, and 'coalescing' Pairs of Black Holes for example] are also closely related.

What is a group of stars that form a pattern?
Constellations
Group of stars that form shapes in the sky?
clusters, constellations
What three kinds of materials that can form terranes?
Gravel, organic matter, sand.
Are stars luminous or non luminous?
All things, except black holes, are luminous. That includes stars. You might think that some other things are not luminous but that's because you can't see the kinds of light that they emit.
What nuclei fuse to form oxygen?
Oxygen is produced through repeated hydrogen fusion in stars. One such process would start with the hydrogen atoms fusing to form helium. And then the helium would fuse to form beryllium. That in turn would fuse to create oxygen.
Where are pulsars located in space?
Pulsars are located every where around the universe keep in mind pulsars are neutron stars so that means they were formed by large stars that have aged and died out
How are pulsars formed?
Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic energy. Neutron stars form when the core of a massive star collapses and goes supernova leaving behind a neutron star which will begin rotating and releasing energy.
Where do pulsars originate from?
The collapse of massive stars - the same as neutron stars.
Are pulsars found in supernova remnants.?
Yes. All pulsars and neutron stars are the remnants of a supernova explosion.
Why are you studying pulsars?
Because I am interested in neutron stars.
Flickering neutron stars formed in supernovas?
pulsars
Are pulsars a kind of neutron star?
Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.
Why does the short length of pulsar pulses eliminate normal stars as possible pulsars?
The short length of pulsar pulses eliminate normal stars as possible pulsars because normal stars do not have strong enough magnetic fields.
Why are pulsars hot?
Pulsars and neutron stars are hot because of all the residual heat left over in the core of the original star.
Scientists now believe that atoms are made up of smaller elementary particles call 'pulsars' or 'quarks'?
Pulsars --------------------------------------------Correction Pulsars are neutron stars that emit pulsating EM radiation at predictable frequencies. Obviously neutrons stars (something massive stars can collapse into when they die) are not the elementary particles of the universe. Therefore, 'quarks'.
Are rotating stars that emit directional beams of radio waves?
pulsars
Can pulsars be considered pulsating stars?
No, they are completely different. See related questions
