  2. Black dwarf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_dwarf

    A black dwarf is a theoretical stellar remnant, specifically a white dwarf that has cooled sufficiently to no longer emit significant heat or light. Because the time required for a white dwarf to reach this state is calculated to be longer than the current age of the universe (13.8 billion years), no black dwarfs are expected to exist in the ...

  3. Substellar object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substellar_object

    Substellar object. A substellar object, sometimes called a substar, is an astronomical object, the mass of which is smaller than the smallest mass at which hydrogen fusion can be sustained (approximately 0.08 solar masses). This definition includes brown dwarfs and former stars similar to EF Eridani B, and can also include objects of planetary ...

  4. Stellar structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_structure

    Stellar structure. Stellar structure models describe the internal structure of a star in detail and make predictions about the luminosity, the color and the future evolution of the star. Different classes and ages of stars have different internal structures, reflecting their elemental makeup and energy transport mechanisms.

  5. Planetary surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_surface

    In differentiated bodies, the surface is where the crust meets the planetary boundary layer. Anything below this is regarded as being sub-surface or sub-marine. Most bodies more massive than super-Earths, including stars and giant planets, as well as smaller gas dwarfs, transition contiguously between phases, including gas, liquid, and solid.

  6. Compact object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_object

    Compact object. In astronomy, the term compact object (or compact star) refers collectively to white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes. It could also include exotic stars if such hypothetical, dense bodies are confirmed to exist. All compact objects have a high mass relative to their radius, giving them a very high density, compared to ...

  7. List of nearest stars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nearest_stars

    The position marks are entered inward from the distance marks according to their declinations, connected by lines (doted when positive) representing the arcs of the declinations viewed edge-on. This list covers all known stars, white dwarfs, brown dwarfs, and sub-brown dwarfs within 20 light-years (6.13 parsecs) of the Sun.

  8. Stellification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellification

    Black hole seeding Brown dwarf stars and gas-giant planets do not achieve sustained fusion, as they contain insufficient mass to gravitationally compress the reactants to the degree required to initiate a reaction. If the density of the star or planet could be increased, fusion could be initiated. One such method is to "seed" the body with a black hole. Although the black hole would initially ...

  9. Brown dwarf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_dwarf

    Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that have more mass than the biggest gas giant planets, but less than the least massive main-sequence stars. Their mass is approximately 13 to 80 times that of Jupiter (MJ) [2][3] —not big enough to sustain nuclear fusion of ordinary hydrogen (1 H) into helium in their cores, but massive enough to emit some ...
