描绘出了恒星在星际气体尘埃中诞生 ,在主星序阶段稳定演化 ,最后以白矮星 ,中子星或黑洞告终的一生经历轮廓。
A concept and basic properties about high density stars during the latter period of seellar evolution, including white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes are discussed.

It is then referred to as a White Dwarf.
这时，它被称为白矮星。
Do you know about the white dwarfs?

White dwarfs provide an important beginning for understanding the material in this chapter.
白矮星是掌握本章材料的重要出发点。
As a slowly contracting dwarf the star may remain luminous for billions of years.
收缩较慢的白矮星仍会发光几十亿年。
Each white dwarf is a burned up, dying star like the sun.
每个白矮星都是类似于太阳燃烬后残存的恒星，
A few stars on the road to dwarfhood flare up briefly from time to time.
有些星星在演变为白矮星的过程中，不时地隐隐闪烁。
( Dwarf novae, explosions of light from the accretion disk around a white dwarf in a binary system, are examples of this phenomenon.
在双星系统中，环绕白矮星的吸积盘产生光爆而造成的矮新星，就是此现象的例子。
Mister Oppenheimer says most of the white dwarfs may be about ten-thousand-million years old.
奥本海姆先生说，大多数白矮星大约有100亿岁。
Ben Oppenheimer led the research team that discovered the white dwarfs.

White dwarfs compact much of the mass of the stars into a volume the size of the earth.
白矮星将其大部分质量紧密地聚集在相当地球大小的范围内。
He says the team studied pictures of the white dwarfs taken during the past thirty years.

In the same way, ultraviolet photons from accretion disks around white dwarfs and in active galactic nuclei or quasars may also accelerate winds from the disk.
同样地，来自白矮星、跃星系核或类星体吸积盘的紫外光光子，或许也能够加速从圆盘吹出的风。
Since a 7-solar-mass is too large to be a white dwarf or neutron star, it must be a black hole.
因为有着7个太阳质量的星体不可能是白矮星或中于星，所以它一定是黑洞。
The disrupted sunlike star could form a massive disk in orbit around the dwarf.
