Can there be Electron and/or Proton Stars? - Physics Stack Exchange
What happens to all of the electrons and protons in the material of a neutron star? Could there ever be an electron star or a proton star?
thermodynamics - What is the core temperature of neutron star as a ...
From 100- $10^5$ years, the interior becomes isothermal and neutrino cooling dominates over photon cooling. The details of how the interior (and hence surface) temperature behaves then depends greatly on the composition of the core, hence the mass of the neutron star, and the extent to which superfluidity operates in the neutron fluid.
Neutron stars and black holes - Physics Stack Exchange
The official limits for a neutron star is $1.4 - 3.2\\;M_\\odot$. But I read that the limit depends on the particular structure of a star to estimate which mass it must have. I also read that neutron...
How do neutron stars burn? Is it decay or fusion or something else?
Second, neutron stars have a maximum possible mass, dictated by the rules of general relativity and the mass of a neutron. If a neutron star has extra mass beyond this dumped on its surface (say, because it is orbiting an ordinary star, and that star accretes mass onto the NS), they can explode in a violent way.
Position of Neutron Stars in H R diagrams - Physics Stack Exchange
Why is that neutron stars are never depicted in a Hertzsprung-Russell diagram? They can be placed in the bottom left corner but you will never find any diagram in literature showing neutron stars.
Is the speed of sound almost as high as the speed of light in neutron ...
The Questions are: 1) How can sound travel at such immense speeds inside a neutron star? 2) Should nuclear interactions, n-n and q-q , dictate the elastic properties of a neutron star, or is it just the gravitational force?
How do neutron stars overcome neutron degeneracy? - Physics Stack Exchange
Neutron stars and General Relativity In neutron stars, the reason for the upper limit is also because hydrostatic equilibrium cannot be reached, either because of the increasing density (even if the neutrons remain intact) but possibly accelerated if the neutrons are removed.
astrophysics - What is the theoretical lower mass limit for a ...
But, I think this is not the smallest possible neutron star mass - it is only the smallest mass that can be produced by stellar evolution processes. For example, black holes have also a lower limit: the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff limit, which is around 1.5-3.0 Solar masses.
What really supports neutron stars? - Physics Stack Exchange
What supports neutron stars is the repulsion provided by the strong nuclear force between closely-packed neutrons. The central pressure in a neutron star is an order of magnitude higher than ideal neutron degeneracy pressure. no, it's not quark degeneracy pressure, it's actual forces due to gluon exchange.
What happens to Protons and Electrons when a Neutron star forms?
What happens to Protons and Electrons when a Neutron star forms? At some point gravity overcomes the Pauli Exclusion Principle ( I assume) and they are all forced together. What happens in the proc...
