No, neurons are cells which are found in brains - nothing to do with stars.

Are pulsars a kind of neutron star?

Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.


How are pulsars related to supernovas?

Pulsars are formed during a supernova event when a massive star explodes, leaving behind a dense core called a neutron star. As this neutron star rotates rapidly, it emits beams of radiation that we detect as pulses, hence the name "pulsars." So, pulsars are directly related to the remnants of supernova explosions.


What neutron star emit pulses of radiation called?

Pulsars and neutron stars emit a beam of electromagnetic radiation.


What kind of star can be detected by radio telescopes?

Radio telescopes detect stars known as 'Pulsars'. They're very small and also known as neutron stars.


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.


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.


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.


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.


A type of neutron star is called a what?

There are many [See link] the most common however are pulsars


Who received the Nobel Prize in Physics for relating pulsars to neutron star formation?

Anthony Hewish


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.


How are pulsars formed?

Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic energy. Neutron stars form when the core of a massive star collapses and goes supernova leaving behind a neutron star which will begin rotating and releasing energy.
