Astronomers have measured each component of a dazzling binary in the young open cluster NGC 3603 in Carina and found that the heaviest of the pair weighs in around 115 solar masses. Astronomers called it the most massive star ever direct...
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is commonly interpreted to be a scale-invariant probability density distribution function (PDF) such that many small clusters yield the same IMF as one massive cluster of the same combined number of stars. Observat
The seemingly sudden disappearance of the star was unusual, as, according to the researchers, such a massive stellar body would be expected to explode in a cataclysmic supernova upon ending its life cycle. “We may have detected one of the most massive stars of the local Universe going gently...
Galaxies host some of the most massive in the universe. The top 10 most massive stars are also interesting objects of study.
Thus, some isolated massive stars in the GC region might have been born in star clusters known in this region. However, no bow shock is detected around the isolated star WR 102ka (Peony nebula star), which is one of the most massive and luminous stars in the Galaxy. This star is ...
Composition of the stellar winds of the most massive stars: 100 M/sub sun/ to 2200 M/sub sun/ 来自 ResearchGate 喜欢 0 阅读量: 29 作者:DSP Dearborn,JB Blake 摘要: The evolution of 100 M/sub sun/, 150 M/sub sun/, and 2200 M/sub sun/ stars has been studied, with the emphasis ...
“Neutron stars have this tipping point where their interior densities get so extreme that the force of gravity overwhelms even the ability of neutrons to resist further collapse. Each “most massive” neutron star we find brings us closer to identifying that ...
The reason for Betelgeuse's fast-paced life is the fact that it was likely born very massive. According toScienceAlert, Betelgeuse used to be a blue-white O-type star, the most massive kind ofmain sequence, hydrogen-burning star. The bigger the star, the brighter it shines and the hotter...
1第一篇 Eta CarinaeAs possibly the galaxy’s (银河) most massive star, Eta Carinae is now engaging in some very unusual behaviour. Australian astronomers, being in the Southern Hemisphere (半球), are able to observe it clearly. In the 19th century, Eta Carinae was for a time the third ...
Crucial elements, like iron, are manufactured inside the most massive stars, and the ensuing supernova eruptions scatter the critical elements throughout space. Some elements are only created in extreme conditions during the blast itself, like silver, gold, uranium, and lead....
