There is no source of energy heating a white dwarf. The heat is left over from when it was a full-fledged star, like a stone pulled from the coals of a fire. The white dwarf glows simply because it is very hot.
Both the sun and a red dwarf are main sequence stars that produce heat and light by fusing hydrogen in their core and turning it into helium.
This describes a white dwarf, which is a small, dense star that remains after a star has exhausted its nuclear fuel and shed its outer layers. White dwarfs emit heat and light as they slowly cool down over billions of years.
A white dwarf does not die in the traditional sense as it is already the end stage of a low-mass star's life cycle. However, over a very long period of time (trillions of years), a white dwarf will cool and fade away, eventually becoming a black dwarf.
No, white dwarf stars do not undergo nuclear fusion like main sequence stars, including our Sun. White dwarf stars are the remnants of low to medium mass stars, and they use stored thermal energy to shine and gradually cool over time.
A white dwarf is the remnant core of a low to medium mass star that has finished nuclear fusion, while a black dwarf is a hypothetical end state where a white dwarf has completely cooled and no longer emits heat or light. Currently, no black dwarfs have been observed in the universe due to the long cooling timescales involved.
As a white dwarf loses energy and cools down, it eventually transitions into a black dwarf. A black dwarf is a hypothetical stellar remnant that has cooled to the point where it no longer emits heat or light. It is smaller and denser than a white dwarf.
Both the sun and a red dwarf are main sequence stars that produce heat and light by fusing hydrogen in their core and turning it into helium.
No. The energy of a white dwarf is simply residual heat.
At that stage, it will no longer produce energy. All the energy it radiates out is its residual heat, and it will gradually get colder and colder. Due to its small size and high density, however, it will take trillions of years for the white dwarf to become a black dwarf.

black dwarf
Filipino is an inhabitant of the Philippines , and they produce heat through body heat , they dont produce light :S
they produce protons and electrons they are collition then the light produce and heat produce
Yes, light does produce heat. When light is absorbed by an object, the energy from the light is converted into heat, which can raise the temperature of the object. This is why objects can feel warm when exposed to sunlight or other sources of light.
Incandescent light bulbs and halogen light bulbs are examples of light bulbs that produce heat.
A candle relies on burning to produce light and heat. The wick of the candle is lit, and the heat from the flame melts the wax, which is then drawn up the wick and burned to produce light and heat.
Chemiluminescence is called cold light because it does not produce heat as a byproduct, unlike incandescence which does produce heat. This makes chemiluminescence an efficient way to produce light without generating heat energy.
