As a white dwarf loses energy and cools down, it eventually transitions into a black dwarf. A black dwarf is a hypothetical stellar remnant that has cooled to the point where it no longer emits heat or light. It is smaller and denser than a white dwarf.

What is larger a black dwarf or a planet?

A black dwarf would be smaller than some planets but larger than others. A black dwarf is simply a cooled white dwarf. White dwarfs range from slightly smaller than Earth to about twice Earth's diameter.


What is a star formed from a white dwarf that has lost its energy?

A white dwarf is the last stage of 97% of star evolution. A white dwarf will eventually cool down, and become a "black dwarf". Black dwarves are not expected to exist yet; to cool down to that level, it would take longer than the current age of the Universe.


Why does the sun's energy form a black hole?

The sun's energy has not formed a black hole.


Is a black dwarf star smaller than a planet?

A black dwarf would be about the same size as a terrestrial planet such as Earth, so it would be larger than some planets but smaller than others.


When a white dwarf star no longer emits energy what does it become?

When a white dwarf star no longer emits energy, it becomes a black dwarf. Black dwarfs are theoretical end points of stellar evolution where all nuclear reactions have ceased, and the star has cooled down to the background temperature of the universe.

What is A white dwarf which has stopped radiating energy?

A white dwarf that has stopped radiating energy would essentially cool down and fade away into a black dwarf. This cooling process can take billions of years, during which the white dwarf becomes invisible to telescopes that detect radiation and can only be inferred by its gravitational influence.


What causes stars to change during the white and black dwarf phases?

A white dwarf no longer produces energy through fusion but remains hot from the residual heat of the star it once was. It will radiate that energy away and slowly cool as a result, eventually becoming a black dwarf.


Is the earth bigger than a black dwarf?

Earth wold be bigger than some black dwarfs, but smaller than others.


Could you see a black dwarf?

No, you cannot. As the name suggests, a "black" dwarf is "black" because it has stopped burning hydrogen/helium for fuel, and is now not producing energy and has cooled to the point that it no longer glows.
