Neutron stars and black holes
Like white dwarfs, neutron stars are strongly degenerate compact objects of roughly one solar mass. But whereas white dwarfs are supported against gravity by the zero-point motion of electrons (electron degeneracy pressure), neutron stars, as the name suggests, consist mostly of neutrons and are supported by the zero-point motion and interactions among the latter particles. The existence of neu...
متن کاملNeutron Stars and Black Holes as MACHOs
We consider the contribution of neutron stars and black holes to the dynamical mass of galactic halos. In particular, we show that if these compact objects were produced by an early generation of stars with initial metallicity ∼< 10 Z⊙, they can contribute up to 30–40% of the Galactic halo mass without violating constraints from chemical evolution. This scenario is consistent with the recent re...
متن کاملWhich Stars Form Black Holes and Neutron Stars?
I describe the current state of our knowledge of the mapping between the initial masses of stars and the compact objects — particularly neutron stars and black holes — that they produce. Most of that knowledge is theoretical in nature, and relies on uncertain assumptions about mass loss through winds, binary mass transfer, and the amount of mass ejected during a supernovae. Observational constr...
متن کاملAccreting neutron stars, black holes, and degenerate dwarf stars.
During the past 8 years, extended temporal and broadband spectroscopic studies carried out by x-ray astronomical satellites have led to the identification of specific compact x-ray sources as accreting neutron stars, black holes, and degenerate dwarf stars in close binary systems. Such sources provide a unique opportunity to study matter under extreme conditions not accessible in the terrestria...
متن کاملImplications of Binary Black Hole Detections on the Merger Rates of Double Neutron Stars and Neutron Star–Black Holes
We show that the inferred merger rate and chirp masses of binary black holes (BBHs) detected by advanced LIGO (aLIGO) can be used to constrain the rate of double neutron star (DNS) and neutron star–black hole (NSBH) mergers in the universe. We explicitly demonstrate this by considering a set of publicly available population synthesis models of Dominik et al. and show that if all the BBH mergers...
