Why don't pulsars emit pulses of visible light?

Pulsars emit pulses of radio waves because their strong magnetic fields accelerate charged particles, causing them to emit these waves. The energy distribution of the particles in a pulsar's magnetosphere favors radio waves over visible light.


What type of star gives out regular pulses of radio waves?

Pulsars. They are very dense neutron stars that rotate quickly and very regularly, emitting radiation pulses towards the earth like a lighthouse.


A word meaning a place in space where radio waves are emitted?

Pulsar - Astronomy . one of several hundred known celestial objects, generally believed to be rapidly rotating neutron stars, that emit pulses of radiation, especially radio waves, with a high degree of regularity.


Do quasers emit large amounts of radio waves?

yes


Who discoved that astronomical objects emit radio waves?

How does a pulsar star get its name?

Pulsar stars get their name from the pulses of radiation they emit as they rapidly rotate. These pulses are detected as regular intervals of electromagnetic radiation, such as radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. The word "pulsar" is a combination of "pulsating" and "star."


Do radio stations produce sounds?

No they emit radio waves. You need a radio receiver to turn what the station produces into sound.


Exactly what do vibrating electrons emit?

Classical they will emit electromagnetic waves (light and radio waves). Quantum effects might limit this since if the electrons are in the ground state (or all lower states are occupied) they can not emit any photons (quanta of electromagnetic waves).


What do stars emit besides heat and light?

They emit: gamma rays, radio waves, and x-rays. Some stars emit T.V. rays


Do ham radios emit radiation?

Well, yes. They couldn't work if they didn't emit electromagnetic radiation in the form of radio waves.


Does the sun emit wave radio waves?

Yes, the sun does emit radio waves as part of its electromagnetic radiation. These radio waves are a form of energy emitted by the sun, along with visible light and other forms of radiation. Radio telescopes can be used to capture and study these radio waves emitted by the sun.


Are rotating stars that emit directional beams of radio waves?

Yes, rotating stars can emit directional beams of radio waves. This phenomenon is known as pulsars, which are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, along their magnetic axes. The regular pulsing of these beams as they sweep across our line of sight gives the appearance of a pulsating or blinking star.
