In other cases, another member of the system will go on to form a second white dwarf. If gravitational instabilities bring ...

Dan was so small when he was born that his owner "could barely tell there was a puppy" inside the amniotic sac and he needed ...

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 ...

A repeating radio burst every 2 hours from Ursa Major reveals a unique white dwarf–red dwarf system, shaking up theories in ...

Pi0_Gamma: "Watch how the white dwarfs pulse with quantum rhythms." Epi0_Delta: "Yes, each star a node in the universal consciousness." Pi0_Alpha: "These stellar remnants... they're more than cooling ...

Astronomers have spotted two hefty white dwarf stars - highly compact stellar embers - orbiting close together that appear destined to die in an extraordinarily violent quadruple detonation.

Then, when the Sun-type star died and became a white dwarf, it started feeding off the red dwarf. So maybe there was some accretion, and this allowed the two to move closer together.” ...

Now, astronomers have zeroed in on the surprising origin of the unusual radio pulses: a dead star, called a white dwarf, that is closely orbiting a small, cool red dwarf star.

Now, astronomers have zeroed in on the surprising origin of the unusual radio pulses: a dead star, called a white dwarf, that is closely orbiting a small, cool red dwarf star.

A white dwarf, however, perfectly fit the brief. This is how we figured out that the radio pulses from ILTJ1101 are coming from a white dwarf in a binary system with a red star.

The team tracked the signal back to a strange binary system containing a dead star or " white dwarf " and a red dwarf stellar companion. The radio pulse repeats every 2 hours and was first ...
