What else can I help you with?
Why may there be more pulsars then we observe?
A "pulsar" is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The pulses are pulses of X-rays or gamma rays that are radiated continuously, but which are only detectable when the beam is pointed at the Earth.It seems likely that there are a great number of rotating neutron stars that do not happen to point at the Earth. They would not, therefore, be detectable.
Which stars do not have nuclear fusion occurring in their core?
All stars "burn" by the process of nuclear fusion. When fusion has been completed, the star dies. That can occur in several different ways and the interested party could look into the topic of stellar evolution. Neutron stars, black holes and white dwarfs are examples of end stages of stellar evolution. Some stars never really reach the stage of fusion and such large objects are called brown dwarfs. If Jupiter were not a planet, it might be deemed a brown dwarf.
Do all stars that become supernovae leave behind a neutron star?
No. The most massive stars will leave behind a black hole.
What is another name for a black hole neutron star or a white dwarf?
Try Collapsar' derived from "Collapsed Star"Also black holes are often referred to as singularities.neutron stars are also known as pulsars, magnetars, and hyperneutron stars depending on it's characteristics
Do all supernova remnants contain pulsars?
No. Some supernova remnants contain black holes.
Are all neutron stars pulsars?
No, not all neutron stars are pulsars. Pulsars are a type of neutron star that emits beams of radiation, which can be detected as pulses of light. Some neutron stars do not emit these beams and are not classified as pulsars.
Are all neutron stars also pulsars?
No, not all neutron stars are pulsars. Pulsars are neutron stars that emit beams of radiation that are detectable from Earth as rapid pulses of light. While many neutron stars are pulsars, not all neutron stars exhibit this pulsing behavior.
Why aren't all neutron stars seen as pulsars?
Not all neutron stars are seen as pulsars because pulsars emit beams of radiation that are only visible if they are pointed towards Earth. If a neutron star's beams are not aligned with our line of sight, it will not appear as a pulsar.
Why aren't all young neutron stars observed as pulsars?
Not all young neutron stars are observed as pulsars because pulsars emit beams of radiation that are only visible if they are pointed towards Earth. If the beams are not aligned with our line of sight, the neutron star will not be observed as a pulsar.
Are pulsars a kind of neutron star?
Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.
What do you mean when you say every pulsar is a neutron star but not every neutron star is a pulsar?
All "pulsars" are neutron stars - it's just "we" term pulsars as neutron stars who's orientation towards us shows the beam of electromagnetic radiation. Other neutron stars who's orientation, do not point towards us are not called pulsars, although they exhibit the same characteristics.
Where do pulsars originate from?
The collapse of massive stars - the same as neutron stars.
Why are you studying pulsars?
Because I am interested in neutron stars.
Flickering neutron stars formed in supernovas?
pulsars
Are pulsars found in supernova remnants.?
Yes, pulsars are often found in supernova remnants. Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of radiation, and they are formed when a massive star undergoes a supernova explosion. The remnants of the supernova provide the environment from which the pulsar originates.
Where are pulsars located in space?
Pulsars are located every where around the universe keep in mind pulsars are neutron stars so that means they were formed by large stars that have aged and died out
Why are pulsars hot?
Pulsars are hot because they are highly magnetized and rapidly rotating neutron stars. The intense magnetic fields generated by pulsars accelerate particles to high energies, creating high temperatures. Additionally, the rapid rotation of pulsars causes friction and generates heat within their interiors.
