A neutron star that "blinks on and off" is called a pulsar. They don't really blink, but there is a jet or jets of energy that come off some of these stars. Think of a light house. You see the beam "blink" but it's just that the beam crosses your line of sight.
The name "neutron star" some from the fact that the neutron star is mainly composed of neutrons. The gravitational pull of a neutron star is so strong that most matter are crushed into neutrons.
The neutron star hasn't atoms.

Then, depending on the remaining mass of the star, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star (aka pulsar), or a black hole.Then, depending on the remaining mass of the star, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star (aka pulsar), or a black hole.Then, depending on the remaining mass of the star, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star (aka pulsar), or a black hole.Then, depending on the remaining mass of the star, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star (aka pulsar), or a black hole.
The neutron star so affected wouldn't really notice. The mass of the neutron star is huge compared to that of the material in the accretion disk. And that matter, when it falls in, wouldn't really "slow" the spin of the star much unless there was a gigantic quantity of matter falling in and/or it acted over a very long period.
It is a neutron star. A pulsar is nothing more than a neutron star whose "beams" are detectable from Earth. Apart from that they are the same thing.
Good sentence for neutron star - WOW ! see that;s a neutron star !!

Neutron stars do not have fuel. A neutron star is a remnant of a star that has already died.
No. A neutron star ts the remnant of a massive star that exploded.
A neutron star is a stellar remnant
It is still called a neutron star. Depending on how we observe it, it may also be called a pulsar.
A young neutron star. Really - that is what a neutron star is. If the neutron star's magnetic field is pointed towards Earth, then it is referred to as a pulsar - because of it's rapid pulsations [See related question] but it is still a neutron star.
Yes. A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star.
Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.
No
