How does supernova come into existence?

A supernova comes to existence when a white dwarf drains the matter from any companion star up to a point in wich it cannot carry anymore, and then it will first implode, and afterwards it will explode, a supernova.


What is the difference of a nebula and a supernova?

A nebula contains stars and other matter; a supernova is just a large enough nova, or star that explodes at the end of its life cycle due to spent fuel


If the core of a supernova explosion contains three or more solar masses of matter the core will most likely become a what?

If sufficient mass remains after the supernova explosion, it will become a black hole.


What causes a white dwarf supernova?

A white dwarf supernova can only happen in binary pairs where the white dwarf rips matter from the larger star and eventually becomes unstable and it collapses in on itself.


If an antimatter star went supernova near your solar system would it be any different than a regular supernova?

The observable universe is almost entirely matter (as opposed to antimatter) so it's unlikely that a cloud of antimatter large enough to form a star could exist long enough to form a star anywhere near the solar system; it would be annihilated by collisions with neighboring normal matter. Ignoring that, though, yes, there would be differences. The ejecta of an antimatter supernova would be primarily antimatter, meaning that it would annihilate nearby normal matter and give off massive amounts of gamma radiation that would not be seen with a normal matter supernova.


When does a supernova occur?

Well, a star must die eventually! Everything in the universe will be destroyed, or will just die. No matter what.


What can you conclude about a Type I supernova?

It is right to conclude that a type I supernova is what it is because it managed to take out so much matter from its surrounding neighbor until it exceeded a 1.4M Chandrasekhar limit. Exceeding that limit meant that it had to tip over.


Fifth state of matter?

1st state of matter- solid 2nd state of matter- liquid 3rd state of matter- gas 4th state of matter- plasma 5th state of matter- Bose Einstein condensate 6th state of matter - fermionic condensate 7th state of matter- thought to be Fermionic condensate


What is the Vela Supernova?

Well a supernova is the explosions or death of a star, so the Vela supernova is probably the supernova of the star vela!


What state of matter is ammonium?

ammonium is in the state of matter


IS a supernova a celestial body?

No, a supernova is an explosion of a star. What left of a supernova are celestial bodies.


Does the state of matter effect the amount of matter?

No, The state of matter only affects its' concentration. No matter what state matter is in, it will always have the same mass (assuming it doesn't drip or float away). However, the state of matter can affect the area or volume of matter.
