Black Dwarf Supernovae Last Explosions At the End of the Universe

Hello and welcome! My name is Anton and in this video, we will talk about a hypothetical period trillions of years in the future when even the black dwarfs, the final types of stars, will start exploding as the last supernovae in the universe.

Now there is a theory that will take forever to prove.

Black Dwarf Supernova somehow sounds like an amazing band name.

[achille]

Just make sure safe search is on when you look up black dwarfs..

[kvd]

There is probably another type of white dwarf called a gray dwarf, these are actually white dwarfs that have very thin outer layers, so thin that their cores will be exposed as a black dot, which makes these objects look like giant eye balls.
They are battle scarred remains of white dwarfs that are caught in a very violent event, such as a supernova or a gamma ray burst or even a quasar.
White dwarfs density also makes them very tough(even tough enough to withstand a gamma ray burst, even if it very close to the source of the gamma ray burst).
If the event(such as a gamma ray burst)isn’t powerful enough to strip a white dwarf into a black dwarf, then the white dwarf will still keep its outer layers intact but at a much thinner layer, and the wannabe black dwarf will actually become a gray dwarf(or eye dwarf).
But if the gray dwarf gets caught in another gamma ray burst, the thin layered white dwarf will eventually become a black dwarf, or an even thinner layered white dwarf.
My theory on white dwarfs being stripped off by these events would actually make them even scarier than previously thought.
There is no known evidence about this, it can happen anywhere else, including on normal stars(including our sun).

Anton knows his stuff. You can learn alot from him. Plus he is a wonderful person. 😉

I REALLY like the way Anton explains things!! He makes it easy to understand very complex matters, for anyone with basic scientific literacy. I particularly like that even though the channel is called What the Math, he uses surprisingly little actual math in his explanations.

[ssgbeowulf]

All matter in the universe is gearing towards division of energy. It's going to get really cold as the universe expands. So much so aside from matter in its most known base states separating (much like a balloon with a dot separates as it expands)
Matter may start to simply slip out of known existence (all vibrations stop). Perhaps leading to an inverse expansion. Like a flipped image.

[Bassotronics]

The topic is serious when Anton does not say “Hello Wonderful Person!”.

[Aeoleous]

You don't know how much your explanations have meant to me Anton. My mathematics are laughable. Your ability to bring daily astrophysics to a moron like me is a real superpower in my opinion. Thank you for what you are doing!

[silasdense]

That little black dwarf (pug) is so adorable.
Thank you for sharing this information.
You're awesome Anton!!

[chuckgehman]

Man, I love your videos. A favorite go to source for information.
Appreciate it.

[mst]

That’ll be a depressing day when it comes. It’s hard to imagine. Then I’d be nonexistent for trillions of years, what happens now all in the abyss of the long past. At that time it’s all darkness and cold. What’s the point?
Life. It’s fun and real while we’re in it.

[redpalkia]

"Is this what this pug is thinking about"

Umm... maybe?

[sharksguai]

i watch you every morning! Thanks again Anthon, you always manage to take my brain to the stars.

[MaryAnnNytowl]

I just read an article about this yesterday! Glad you made this, so I could get a better understanding of it without having to read through an abstract that wouldn't have anywhere near the entertainment value as you have, Anton!

[RashMonroe]

I love hearing you speak! You’re beautifully brilliant man!

[josephknurek]

I hope you keep doing what you are doing forever, a great way to keep up with stuff. Love your vidoes.

*Here are my random thoughs but what do you think?:*
A googol years seems so far away but it really isn't if you think about it. The end of the Universe might as well aready happaned since time is only experienced by conscience beings who can comprehend the concept of it. When you die, a second might as well be an hour or years might as well be a second, a googol years might be over in a heartbeat. It doesn't matter in the slightest since there is nothing left of you that could notice. In a way the universe ends with your death, since the end of it all is inevitable and to "nothingness" the end of the universe might as well be instant.

At this point the most likely true theory might be, that the universe resets itself in some shape or form and the cards are simply shuffled. Maybe there really "can't be nothing" and the big bang is a result of trying to devide by 0 which causes space to explode everywhere at once but who knows? If the universe didn't come from nothing then there must have been something before that? And since something can't come from nothing then there must have been something before us. That would mean that this timeline right now is also the something to the something that comes after it. If that's the case then the existence of life is basically a given.

Now this might sound crazy:
If life is a given then maybe "reincarnation" really IS a thing but it's not in the same universe-timeline and not in the same way. You die and you "wake up" in a new universe. Maybe the next time I am you and you are me and we would never know. But you couldn't even assume that because in "the next run" it will be like as if our old selfes never existed in the first place, so we can't ever be reincarnated as our old selfes no matter what.

A googol years is such a long time that no life emerging during that time would be less likely then no life to emerge and our existence right now is the best proof of that.

But here is an argument against reincarnation:
Why would you be reborn as your old self and relive your life in a loop for example or as somebody else in the same old timeline if there are basically infinte lifes that could have been but never were. Why would the universe revolve around your specific conciousness since it would have to revolve around YOU and solely exist arond YOUR existence to form the exact same "you" every time. There are simply too many factors.

But what is life anyway? When you get down to it then a human life isn't anything special compared to the life of an ant since we all fall into the void in the end. The life on an ant revolves around being an ant and it understands itself as such. The only difference between the life of an ant and the life of an human is the fact, that we are seemingly more selfaware and we know that we are (in fact) NOT an ant ourself... but how does that make us better or more special? The ant never asked to come to life and live as an ant. Neither did we decide to exist as humans. Maybe the next time around YOU are the ant and somebody else steps on you without even knowing and you wouldn't even be concience enough to notice! The circle repeats. What is life at this point?!.... damn
