The Sun will never leave behind a stellar remnant such as a neutron star, as it does not have enough mass to achieve the massive pressures required to make one.

Our Sun will end up as a white dwarf stellar remnant.

Does the sun eventually become a neutron star?

As far as we know, the sun will never become a neutron star. it will eventually become a Red Giant and then it will eventually become a white dwarf


Can our sun become a neutron star?

No. it is not massive enough. When the sun dies it will become a white dwarf.


Will the sun turn into a neutron star?

No. It does not have enough mass. Only stars 8 times the mass of the sun or greater can become neutron stars. The sun will become a white dwarf.


Do the sun will eventually become a neutron star?

No, unless it somehow acquires more mass. It requires more mass to become a neutron star.


What is the average density of a neutron star that has the same mass as the sun?

An object of one solar mass cannot become a neutron star.


Could an average stars such as our sun become a neutron star?

No. Stars such as our sun become white dwarfs. Only stars 8-10 times the mass of the sun or more become neutron stars.


How are neutron stars formed?

Neutron stars are formed when stars with more than 8 times the mass of the Sun run out of fuel and explodes as a supernova. After the star explodes, the core of the star remains, the core would then become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core remain is less than 3 times the mass of the sun, it would become a neutron star.


What is the difference between stars that become dwarf stars and stars that become neutron stars?

A star that becomes a white dwarf simply does not have the mass to become a neutron star. White dwarfs are the the remnants of a star very similar to our own sun in mass, where it takes a much more massive star to create a neutron star, Like the star Betelgeuse is a prime example of a star that does not have the mass to become a black hole but is massive enough to become a neutron star.


Will our sun become a black hole or a neutron star?

Neither. Our Sun will turn into a red giant, and then cool to become a white dwarf.


What is the stages of a star?

a star of about sun's mass will become a white dwarf star and will fade slowly into a black dwarf. a star of sun's 1.4 to 3 time the mass of the sun will become a neutron star. a star of more than 3 times of mass of the sun will become a black hole. hopes its help!!


Will the sun become a white dwarf a neutron star or a black hole and why?

According to current theories of stellar evolution, because of the Sun's mass and chemistry most likely it will become a white dwarf. It simply lacks the weight to become a neutron star or black hole.


Will the sun become a white dwarf neutron star or a black hole?

The long-term fate of the sun according to current theories in stellar evolution, is to become a white dwarf. It lacks the mass to further collapse into a neutron star or black hole.
