Death of large starsChapter 21&22
Supernova Ia
Death of high mass stars:
Neutron stars
Pulsars
Black holes
Fate of the large starsEnd mass
Less than 1.4 M sun White dwarf
Chandrasekhar limit
1.4 – 3 M sun Neutron star : First discovered by Jocelyn Bell as a pulsar in 1960s
Oppenheimer – Volkov limit
Greater than 3 M sun Black hole
Review fate of the starsanswer these question to review the fate of the smaller stars from last lecture!
1. Where did the elements heavier than Fe from? a) It formed during the big bang, b) it formed in the large stars through fusion process. C) during SN explosion
2. If a WD in binary system gain mass from its companion, it may result in: a) SN type Ia, b) SN type II, c) CVS type 1, d) CVS type 2
3. Chandrasekhar limit marks the mass limit between: a) brown dwarf and red dwarf, b) red dwarf and stars that eventually becomes red giant, c) white dwarf and neutron star, d) neutron star and black hole
4. T/F the material that forms stars are often left over material from the previous stars in that region.
