Black Holes, Neutron Stars, and White Dwarfs (Collab. w/ MinuteEarth)

Показать описание


This video is about the differences between the corpses or final degenerate dense star forms that dead stars take: black holes, neutron stars, and white dwarfs. The main distinguishing features between them are the mass cutoffs (Chandrasekhar limit and Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff Limit), the matter that makes them up (electrons, protons, neutrons, singularity?), and what holds them up against gravity – not thermal pressure from nuclear fusion like in a star like the sun, but electron or neutron degeneracy pressure (fermi pressure/pauli exclusion principle), and the strong nuclear force, and... nothing (in the case of a black hole).

Other people: Triggered because of "Man or Woman"

Me: Triggered because he wrote "dwarfs" and not "dwarves"

Hey - this is a good video! I sure would like to see a follow-up about other space objects, like, say, moons.

Wait Is it really a collab if you own both MinutePhysics and MinuteEarth? (You do, don't you?)

When someone comments a prediction of incoming of negative comments which prevents those negative comments from coming up in the first place? I call this new trend "pre-emptive loathing".

People talking about how he mentioned man vs woman are focusing on the wrong thing. That's not what the video is about

"Collaboration with MinuteEarth."

Wait... so you collaborated with... yourself?

A pokeball is actually a white dwarf if you think about it. So you thought about it and realised I was wrong but what you didn't realise is that I made you think about it and that I spelt pokeball wrong. I actually spelt pokeball right but you looked at the pokeball just to make sure. Deep conversations like these and about the future (biotech, AI, health, etc) happening at discord.gg/ftSbffu

I feel like people complaining about the little man/woman thing in this video are completely missing the point of it.

that feeling when you made interesting science video and people start complaining about a comparison you made

I imagine Henry in front of his computer, the video being ready to be published, staring the screen for about 30 seconds before uttering the words "oh, fuck it" and clicking Publish

Is it just me or are the mintue physics videos hypnotically soothing to listen to? I actually forget what they're talking about because of that

Black holes are probably made up of books in a shelf.
