No Contradiction 'Round Here...
Posted By: Anton P. Nym <sumpca@yahoo.com>	Date: 4/20/04 3:10 p.m.
In Response To: Re: he didn't say it was a star, and... (Ain Soph Aur) : It's all a matter of nomenclature anyways. But you did contradict yourself. : You called a Brown Dwarf a dead star, which is the definition I always : heard, which was that a Brown Dwarf is the theoretical next stage from a : White Dwarf. Black. Not brown. Check my post again, carefully. Black is the cinder-star. Brown is the "failed" star. : And, for the record, : neutron stars are actually the superdense cores of supernovae, and they're : about 15 miles in diameter with a mass greater than our sun's. They also : produce magnetic fields trillions of times more powerful than the Earth's. Agreement. (See Robert Forwards Dragon's Egg for an interesting SF take on neutron stars.) Nifty stuff, but tangential to the main point. : But when I did a little looking up not in the book I got the brown dwarf : from, it turns out that what I was talking about is actually called a : black dwarf, so technically you're right. That was my point. I hope. (Wasn't it?) -- Steve the ex-physics student one decade removed
