Neutron star A neutron star is the collapsed core of a giant star which before collapse had a total mass of between and solar masses.Neutron stars are the smallest and densest stars, not counting black holes, hypothetical white holes, quark stars and strange stars Neutron stars have a radius on the order of kilometres . mi and a mass lower than . solar masses. Degenerate matter Degenerate matter is a highly dense state of fermionic matter in which particles must occupy high states of kinetic energy to satisfy the Pauli exclusion principle.The description applies to matter composed of electrons, protons, neutrons or other fermions The term is mainly used in astrophysics to refer to dense stellar objects where gravitational pressure is so extreme that quantum Gravitational wave Detectors Come Online, Find Possible May , This image from a simulation shows a neutron star merging with a black hole Most matter falls into the black hole, but some is left outside the event horizon st Evidence of a Black Hole Devouring a Neutron Star May , The world s largest gravitational wave detectors may have just found the first evidence of a black hole devouring a neutron star When massive objects like neutron stars or black holes collide Black hole vs neutron star Gravitational waves spur May , The neutron star black hole collision is estimated to have taken place in a distant galaxy, roughly . billion light years away, according to the National Science Foundation. This is further Ripples in space time suggest black hole may have Astronomers say they may have spotted a neutron star being swallowed by a black hole for very the first time after seeing vast gravitational waves rippling across space. Boom Another Neutron Star Crash Spotted Space Astronomers have apparently spotted another epic neutron star crash and they didn t need gravitational waves to do it NASA s Chandra X ray Observatory detected a powerful burst of X ray light New and improved LIGO may have detected a black hole An artist s rendition of two neutron stars colliding, which is believed to be responsible for one of the gravitational wave detections in the latest batch reported by LIGO and Virgo Credit NASA LIGO detects gravitational waves from another neutron star Apr , And instead of finding one potential binary neutron star merger, astronomers turned up at least two different candidates Now the question is which, if any, are related to the gravitational wave Astronomers at LIGO Virgo hear whispers of black hole May , The possible April neutron star black hole collision referred to as Sc is estimated to have taken place roughly . billion light years away.

Laurence van Cott Niven s best known work is Ringworld Ringworld, 1 1970 , which received the Hugo, Locus, Ditmar, and Nebula awards His work is primarily hard science fiction, using big science concepts and theoretical physics The creation of thoroughly worked out alien species, which are very different from humans both physically and mentally, is recognized as one of Niven s main strengths.Niven also often includes elements of detective fiction and adventure stories His fantasy includes The Magic Goes Away series, which utilizes an exhaustible resource, called Mana, to make the magic a non renewable resource Niven created an alien species, the Kzin, which were featured in a series of twelve collection books, the Man Kzin Wars He co authored a number of novels with Jerry Pournelle In fact, much of his writing since the 1970s has been in collaboration, particularly with Pournelle, Steven Barnes, Brenda Cooper, or Edward M Lerner.He briefly attended the California Institute of Technology and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in mathematics with a minor in psychology from Washburn University, Topeka, Kansas, in 1962 He did a year of graduate work in mathematics at the University of California at Los Angeles He has since lived in Los Angeles suburbs, including Chatsworth and Tarzana, as a full time writer He married Marilyn Joyce Fuzzy Pink Wisowaty, herself a well known science fiction and Regency literature fan, on September 6, 1969.Niven won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story for Neutron Star in 1967 In 1972, for Inconstant Moon, and in 1975 for The Hole Man In 1976, he won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette for The Borderland of Sol.Niven has written scripts for various science fiction television shows, including the original Land of the Lost series and Star Trek The Animated Series, for which he adapted his early Kzin story The Soft Weapon He adapted his story Inconstant Moon for an episode of the television series The Outer Limits in 1996.He has also written for the DC Comics character Green Lantern including in his stories hard science fiction concepts such as universal entropy and the redshift effect, which are unusual in comic bookscmillan author larryn
