Created page with "==Key Stage 4== ===Meaning=== A '''white dwarf''' is a low mass star which has run out of low mass elements to fuse. ===About Whi..."

New page

==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
A '''white dwarf''' is a [[Low Mass Star|low mass star]] which has run out of low [[mass]] [[element]]s to [[Nuclear Fusion|fuse]].

===About White Dwarves===
: A '''white dwarf''' is formed from the core of a [[Red Giant|red giant]] after it has run out of [[Helium]].
: A '''white dwarf''' glows due to its [[Gravity|gravitational]] collapse [[Energy Transfer|transferring]] [[energy]] from the [[Gravitational Potential Energy Store|gravitational potential energy store]] of its [[matter]] to the [[Thermal Energy Store|thermal energy store]] of its [[matter]].
: A '''white dwarf''' is around the size of [[planet]] [[Earth]].
