No, the sun will eventually evolve into a red giant before shedding its outer layers and becoming a white dwarf. The white dwarf stage marks the end of its evolution, where it will slowly cool down over billions of years.
After a planetary nebula occurs, the core of the star collapses and becomes a white dwarf. This white dwarf slowly cools down over billions of years until it eventually becomes a cold, dark remnant known as a black dwarf.
A white dwarf is the core of a dead star. As the star runs out of fuel, it expands into a red giant, as the shell of the red giant became a planetary nebula, and the core shrinks and became a white dwarf.
A brown dwarf will never become a black dwarf. A black dwarf is what becomes of a white dwarf. This process takes hundreds of trillions of years.
Before a white dwarf, a star would undergo the red giant phase. After a white dwarf, a star may end its life cycle as a black dwarf, although no black dwarfs are currently known to exist in the universe due to the long timescales required for a white dwarf to cool down.
White dwarf.
It gets bigger and blows up and then it becomes a white dwarf
The sun will be a red giant for about 1 billion years before transitioning into a white dwarf.
No. In about 7.5 billion years the Sun will become a white dwarf.
The White Dwarf in space is also called a degenerate dwarf which is a stellar remnant composed mostly of electron degenerate matter. This can happen in binary pairs where the white dwarf rips matter from the larger star and eventually becomes unstable and it collapses in on itself.
A white dwarf that has stopped radiating energy would essentially cool down and fade away into a black dwarf. This cooling process can take billions of years, during which the white dwarf becomes invisible to telescopes that detect radiation and can only be inferred by its gravitational influence.
It is dead. It becomes a black dwarf, just a rock.
