A blue dwarf is a predicted class of star that develops from a red dwarf after it has exhausted much of its hydrogen fuel supply. Learn about the hypothetical scenario, evolution and fate of blue dwarfs, and how they differ from other types of stars.
Despite the name, white dwarfs can emit visible light that ranges from blue white to red. Scientists sometimes find that white dwarfs are surrounded by dusty disks of material, debris, and even planets – leftovers from the original star’s red giant phase.
A dwarf star is a star of relatively small size and low luminosity, or a star-sized object that is not a star. Learn about the different types of dwarf stars, such as red, yellow, orange, blue, and white dwarfs, and how they were named and classified.
Blue dwarf is a term for different types of stars that emit light in blue or ultraviolet. Learn about the different categories of blue dwarf stars, such as compact dwarf galaxies, main-sequence stars, and subdwarfs.
18 sty 2019 · A blue dwarf is a hypothetical type of star that will form when a red dwarf exhausts its hydrogen fuel and collapses inward. Learn about this and other exotic stars that may exist in the far future, such as black dwarfs, frozen stars and magnetars.
The paper "M dwarfs: planet formation and long term evolution" describes blue dwarf stars, a hypothetical next-stage in the lifespan of red dwarf stars within a certain mass range, after which they become white dwarves.
4 paź 2023 · Learn about the blue compact dwarf galaxy ESO 338-4, which is 100 million light-years away from Earth and has a bright, young star-forming region. This galaxy is the result of a recent merger with a wandering galaxy and shows intense blue color.
