Dying stars are not just white: scientists find pink, green and purple white dwarfs

مرتے ہوئے ستارے صرف سفید نہیں: سائنسدانوں کو گلابی، سبز اور جامنی سفید بونے ملے

मरते तारे सिर्फ़ सफ़ेद नहीं: वैज्ञानिकों को गुलाबी, हरे और बैंगनी श्वेत वामन मिले

Dying stars are not just white: scientists find pink, green and purple white dwarfs

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Astronomers at the University of Warwick have found that white dwarfs, the dense remains of dead stars, can glow in colours far beyond white if seen up close, including pink, purple, cyan, yellow and green.
  • Their study, published in the journal RAS Techniques and Instruments, worked out what these stars would look like to the human eye from models of their light.
  • The most striking case is WD J1330+6435, about 284 light-years away and around 4,000 degrees Celsius, which swallowed rocky material from its own planetary system rich in calcium, lithium and sodium.
  • یونیورسٹی آف واروک کے ماہرین فلکیات نے دریافت کیا ہے کہ سفید بونے، یعنی مرے ہوئے ستاروں کی کثیف باقیات، قریب سے دیکھے جائیں تو صرف سفید نہیں بلکہ گلابی، جامنی، نیلے سبز، پیلے اور سبز رنگوں میں بھی چمک سکتے ہیں۔ ان کی تحقیق، جو جریدے RAS Techniques and Instruments میں شائع ہوئی، ان ستاروں کی روشنی کے ماڈلز سے یہ نکالا گیا کہ انسانی آنکھ کو یہ کیسے نظر آئیں گے۔ سب سے نمایاں مثال WD J1330+6435 ہے، جو تقریباً 284 نوری سال دور اور تقریباً 4,000 ڈگری سینٹی گریڈ گرم ہے، جس نے اپنے سیاروی نظام کا پتھریلا مواد نگل لیا تھا جو کیلشیم، لیتھیم اور سوڈیم سے بھرپور تھا۔ اس کی کثیف فضا میں سوڈیم نارنجی روشنی جذب کر لیتا ہے، جس سے ہلکی سبز چمک رہ جاتی ہے، اور یہ پہلا معلوم حقیقی سبز ستارہ بن گیا ہے۔ دوسری انتہا پر WD J1011+2845 ہے، جو صرف 48 نوری سال دور ہے اور شاید اب تک کا سب سے سرخ ستارہ ہے: اس کے مرکز سے سطح تک اٹھنے والا کاربن اسے گہری گلابی چمک دیتا ہے۔ تقریباً 65 نوری سال کے اندر 151 سفید بونوں میں سے صرف پانچ میں غیر معمولی رنگ پائے گئے، جس سے اندازہ ہوتا ہے کہ تقریباً تیس میں سے ایک سفید بونا غیر معمولی رنگ میں چمکتا ہے۔
  • वारविक विश्वविद्यालय के खगोलविदों ने पाया है कि श्वेत वामन, यानी मृत तारों के घने अवशेष, करीब से देखे जाएँ तो सिर्फ़ सफ़ेद नहीं बल्कि गुलाबी, बैंगनी, सियान, पीले और हरे रंगों में भी चमक सकते हैं। उनका अध्ययन, जो RAS Techniques and Instruments पत्रिका में प्रकाशित हुआ, इन तारों के प्रकाश के मॉडल से यह निकाला गया कि मानव आँख को वे कैसे दिखेंगे। सबसे चौंकाने वाला मामला WD J1330+6435 है, जो लगभग 284 प्रकाश-वर्ष दूर और लगभग 4,000 डिग्री सेल्सियस गर्म है, जिसने अपनी ही ग्रहीय प्रणाली का कैल्शियम, लिथियम और सोडियम से भरपूर चट्टानी पदार्थ निगल लिया था। उसके घने वातावरण में सोडियम नारंगी प्रकाश सोख लेता है, जिससे भूतिया हरी चमक रह जाती है, और यह पहला ज्ञात वास्तविक हरा तारा बन गया है। दूसरी चरम पर WD J1011+2845 है, जो सिर्फ़ 48 प्रकाश-वर्ष दूर है और शायद अब तक का सबसे लाल तारा है: उसके केंद्र से सतह तक उठा कार्बन उसे गहरी सैल्मन-गुलाबी चमक देता है। लगभग 65 प्रकाश-वर्ष के भीतर 151 श्वेत वामनों में से सिर्फ़ पाँच में असामान्य रंग पाए गए, जिससे अनुमान है कि लगभग तीस में से एक श्वेत वामन असामान्य रंग में चमकता है।

Their study, published in the journal RAS Techniques and Instruments, worked out what these stars would look like to the human eye from models of their light. The most striking case is WD J1330+6435, about 284 light-years away and around 4,000 degrees Celsius, which swallowed rocky material from its own planetary system rich in calcium, lithium and sodium. The sodium in its dense atmosphere absorbs orange light, leaving a ghostly chartreuse green glow, making it the first known genuinely green star. At the other extreme, WD J1011+2845, just 48 light-years away, may be the reddest star ever recorded: carbon lifted from its core to its surface gives it a deep salmon-pink glow. Of 151 white dwarfs within about 65 light-years studied, only five showed unusual colours, suggesting roughly one in 30 white dwarfs shines in an unusual colour.
