An artist's impression of the merger of two neutron stars. It's funny, because the more wacky combinations of stars and compact object (white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole) we find or imagine, the more remarkable evolutionary scenarios astronomers can conceive of playing out. Less massive stars will eject its outer layers and then will collapse inside, forming white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. Black holes, like neutron stars, white dwarfs and normal stars, also have strong magnetic fields that get even stronger the closer you get to the event horizon, or the point from which light cannot escape.

They suggest that two compact stellar remnants – black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs – collided and merged together. Our sun will form a white dwarf, a remnant of 60% of Earth's size from the original mass. When stars die, the distribution of remnant masses would be expected to be continuous from white dwarfs through neutron stars to black holes, ranging from a fraction of our sun's mass to nearly 100 solar masses. In our case, the processes of energy generation and conversion are particularly complicated because of the exotic nature of black holes. This includes white dwarf stars, neutron stars and black holes. Short duration gamma-ray bursts are thought to be caused by the merger of some combination of white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, X-ray pulsars you name it and this book has it. In all it gives This is an exciting account about binary stars and the way black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron stars can evolve in them. In addition, many binary systems can have compact components and can exist in a variety of ways. Black Holes, Neutron Stars, White Dwarfs, Space and Time.
