White Dwarf 137 Pdf | 2024 |
A white dwarf is a small, hot, and extremely dense star that is formed when a star like our Sun exhausts its fuel and dies. During its lifetime, a star fuses hydrogen into helium in its core, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. As the star ages and runs out of fuel, it undergoes a series of complex transformations, ultimately leading to the formation of a white dwarf.
