A dying star with a mass similar to that of our Sun will eventually evolve into a red giant as it exhausts its nuclear fuel. After shedding its outer layers, it will leave behind a hot core known as a white dwarf. Over billions of years, the white dwarf will gradually cool and fade away, ultimately becoming a cold, dark remnant called a black dwarf, although the universe is not old enough for any black dwarfs to currently exist.

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 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.


When the star die what did it become?

During last ages of life of a star, to find what happens in coming ages of life of star. It determines on its mass explained by chandrashekher that if the mass of given star is 2.42 times the mass of our sun then it explodes in the form of supernova. If the mass of given star is less than the 2.42 times the mass of our sun then it shrinks to become white dwarf.


What does a star with eight times the mass of your sun 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.


Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?

A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.


How long does the process of dying take for a star like our SUN?

That would depend on the size (mass) of the star. Please be more precise with your question for us to answer it.


The minimum mass of a star required for it to become a neutron star is?

Approximately 1.4 times the mass of the sun, known as the Chandrasekhar limit, is required for a star to become a neutron star. If a star has a mass greater than this limit, it will likely undergo a supernova explosion and collapse into a neutron star.


Is the sun a high mass star?

no the sun is a medium mass 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.


What might be the end point of a star with a mass larger than the sun?

It can become a white dwarf, a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass that remains at the end of the star's life.


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.
