What else can I help you with?
Will the core of a high mass star turn into a nutron star?
Yes, the core of a high mass star will collapse under immense gravitational pressure during a supernova explosion, forming a neutron star. Neutron stars are incredibly dense and composed primarily of neutrons, hence the name.
What is the average density of a neutron star that has the same mass as the sun?
The average density of a neutron star with the same mass as the sun would be about 1 x 10^17 kg/m^3. Neutron stars are incredibly dense objects, as they are formed from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone supernova explosions.
Which state of matter has highest density?
The singularity in a black hole, then comes the material in a neutron star.
Is the density of a neutron star the same as the sun?
No. Neutron stars are far MORE DENSE than the Sun's core. If the Sun were twice its actual mass, and if it were to collapse into a ball around 10 miles in diameter, THEN it would be as dense as a neutron star. Compared to a neutron star, the Sun is like a mist of hydrogen, a sort of fog.
What is the temperature of the core of a neutron star?
Depends on the age of the neutron star. As a neutron star no longer has any method to produce heat, it will slowly cool over time. A young neutron star will have a core temperature of about 106 kelvin.
Is the density of a neutron star about the same density as a white dwarf?
No, the density of a neutron star is much higher than that of a white dwarf. Neutron stars are composed mostly of densely packed neutrons, while white dwarfs are made of electron-degenerate matter. Neutron stars are some of the densest objects in the universe.
Will the core of a high mass star turn into a nutron star?
Yes, the core of a high mass star will collapse under immense gravitational pressure during a supernova explosion, forming a neutron star. Neutron stars are incredibly dense and composed primarily of neutrons, hence the name.
What is a dead star with the density of an atomic nuclei called?
A dead star with the density of an atomic nuclei is called a neutron star. Neutron stars are incredibly dense and are composed mostly of tightly packed neutrons. They form when massive stars explode in a supernova and their cores collapse under gravity.
How strong are neutron stars?
Strong is not a term used for a neutron star. If you mean density, then see related question.
Is the density of a neutron star about the same as that of a white dwarf?

What is the density of the neutron star?
A typical neutron star - if there is a typical one - has the density of about 3.7×1017 to 5.9×1017 kg/m3. The Earth for comparison has a density of 5.515 g/cm3 To put that into perspective, a neutron star has the mass of the entire human population, squashed down to the size of a sugar cube, or one teaspoon (5 milliliters) of neutron star would have 900 times the mass of the Great Pyramid of Giza. Or imagine squeezing 50 million elephants into a thimble that is the density of a neutron star. Another way of understanding it, is:- if you were (you can't) standing on a neutron star, and you laid a sheet of paper down, the effort required to climb the edge of the paper would be the equivalent of climbing a 3,000 mile cliff on Earth!

How do neutron stars differ from super giants stars?
I suggest you do some reading on both, to get an idea what a neutron star really is, and what a supergiant is. For a start, some differences are: their diameter; their density; the fact that a neutron star no longer produces any energy.
Is the density of a pulsar greater than the density of a white dwarf?
The density of a pulsar or neutron star is much greater than that of a white dwarf. A typical (if there is such a thing) neutron star has a density of between 8.4 × 1016 to 1 × 1018 kg/m3 whereas a white dwarf has a density of about 1 × 109 kg/m3
Is the density of a neutron star the same as the sun?
No. Neutron stars are far MORE DENSE than the Sun's core. If the Sun were twice its actual mass, and if it were to collapse into a ball around 10 miles in diameter, THEN it would be as dense as a neutron star. Compared to a neutron star, the Sun is like a mist of hydrogen, a sort of fog.
