Neutron Star captured without auto exposure in SpaceEngine. |
It originates from the gravitational collapse of a main sequence star with a lot of mass, as a Blue supergiant. When a massive star has a supernova explosion the star collapses by its own weight, then its diameter decreases.
(In the picture: As this object has a very strong gravitational field visible light from the Milky Way and the stars behind it is deviates)
Life cycle of a dwarf star and a massive star. |
Some Neutron Stars are Pulsating Radio Stars (Pulsar), they emit a beam of electromagnetic Radiation, these emissions are moved due to the rotation of the star and are produced due to the matter that the star absorbs its accretion disk.
Revolving around of PSR B1509-58 (And its accretion disk), this GIF is taken with SpaceEngine
(The beam of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the star isn't visible from this capture).
"Artistic representation" of a pulsar. This GIF is Taken With Universe Sandbox.
This image shows the beam of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a Pulsar, but it isn't realistic.
