Is a pulsar star a white dwarf?
No. A pulsar is a neutron star.
What do you call a star that appears to pulsate?
A star that pulsates is known as a variable star.
What is another name for a spinning neutron star?
Another name for a spinning neutron star is a pulsar. Pulsars emit beams of radiation that can be detected when they are oriented towards Earth, creating a pulsing effect as they rotate. This phenomenon is a result of the star's rapid rotation and strong magnetic fields.
What is the biggest pulsar?
The biggest pulsar known is PSR J0740+6620, which is a millisecond pulsar located about 4,600 light-years away in the Cassiopeia constellation. It has a mass approximately 2.14 times that of the Sun, pushing the limits of neutron star mass predictions. This pulsar's extreme mass challenges existing theories about neutron star formation and the behavior of matter under such intense gravitational conditions.
What type of star acts like a lighthouse that periodically emits radio waves into space?
A pulsar is a type of neutron star that emits beams of radiation, including radio waves, from its magnetic poles. As the star rotates, these beams appear to pulse on and off, giving it the appearance of a lighthouse.
What happens to a neutron star that gives it the name pulsar?
the name pulsar is given to a neutron star that rotates

Are pulsar star found in the solar system?
No. There is only one star in our Solar System, the Sun and it is not a pulsar.

No, a pulsar star is not in our solar system.
What is a dense rotating star?
A pulsar.

Pulsar
Why is a Neutron star called a Pulsar?
Because a pulsar is a neutron star but with it's emmision lines visible from Earth. See related questions.
