Astronomers have tracked a mysterious, record-breaking blast of energy to a binary star system containing a red dwarf star ...

Abstract: We have examined the evolution of merged low-mass double white dwarfs which become low-luminosity (or high-gravity ... We have obtained radial pulsation periods for these models.These models ...

the change of their motions would not surprise us; we should acknowledge them as necessary, and have only to investigate their amount by observation. But light is no real property of mass. The ...

Astronomers Discover First Pairs of White Dwarf and Main Sequence ... to occur in the universe -- massive star-forming galaxies rather than low - mass ... Dance of Electrons Measured in the ...

"An M dwarf alone couldn't generate the amount of energy we're seeing. Our data suggests that it is in a binary with another object, which is likely to be a white ... a low-mass red dwarf star ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has been used to determine the mass of white dwarf star LAWD 37. It is "56 percent the mass of our Sun," according to NASA/ESA. Credit: NASA, ESA, P. McGill (Univ.

Radio pulsars —rapidly spinning neutron stars —are well-studied objects. They typically spin many times a second to a few ...

Astronomers have discovered the first pairs of white dwarf ... massive stars tend to live shorter lives and go through the stages of stellar evolution much faster than their lower mass companions.

Astronomers pinpointed the source of the signal to a low mass star, but it can't generate that much energy on its own.

An Earth-sized remnant of a Sun-like star ... white dwarfs have a habitable zone that would be warm enough for life across billions of years. For a white dwarf of about 60% of the Sun’s mass ...
