A red dwarf is simply a main sequence star that has a low mass, resulting a slow rate of fusion and a low luminosity. A brown dwarf is essentially a failed star without enough mass for nuclear fusion. Brown dwarfs may ignite deuterium fusion but cannot sustain it. Brown dwarfs can be thought of as intermediate between stars and gas planets. A blue dwarf is a hypothetical class of star that develops when a red dwarf consumes most of its hydrogen fuel and undergoes an increase in surface temperature, thus becoming bluer. Since red dwarfs consume their fuel so slowly the universe is not old enough for any blue dwarfs to have formed yet. A white dwarf is the dense remnant of a low to medium mass star in which fusion has stopped after the fuel was exhausted. White dwarfs glow with from their leftover heat.
What else can I help you with?
The sun will eventually end up as a?
white dwarf star
Will the sun become a white dwarf in the next 20 years?
No. It will become a white dwarf in about 7.5 billion years time.
Will the sun be a white dwarf for the rest of eternity?
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.
Is the sun larger than a white dwarf?
YES. A typical white dwarf star is only a bit bigger than the Earth.
What is a final stage of a sun like star?
white dwarf
The sun will eventually end up as a?
white dwarf star
Is the Sun a white dwarf before becoming its present size?
No. In about 7.5 billion years the Sun will become a white dwarf.
Is the sun in the collection of white dwarf stars?
No, the sun is a main sequence star, not a white dwarf. White dwarfs are the remnants of smaller stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and collapsed. The sun will eventually evolve into a white dwarf in about 5 billion years.
Will the sun become a white dwarf in the next 20 years?
No. It will become a white dwarf in about 7.5 billion years time.
What is the order from smallest to largest sun supernova red giant white dwarf?
White Dwarf, Sun, Red Giant, Supernova
Will the sun be a white dwarf for the rest of eternity?
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.
What is the size of a dwarf star?
Several times smaller than our Sun. Details vary, depending on the type of dwarf star (a red dwarf and a white dwarf are quite different things), and the exact mass.
White Dwarf is one of the final stages in?
A stars evolution. Our Sun will go yellow dwarf -> red giant -> white dwarf -> black dwarf.
What does the sun become when it burns out?
A white dwarf
Is a white dwarf a stage of evolution?
A white dwarf is the death of a medium sized star - similar to our own Sun.
A good sentence for white dwarf?
In 5 billion years time, our Sun will turn into a white dwarf.
How long will the sun be a red giant before it transitions into a white dwarf?
The sun will be a red giant for about 1 billion years before transitioning into a white dwarf.
