The time it takes for a cloud 106,000 AU in radius to collapse in "free-tall to form a new star is half the time it would take for an object to orbit the star on an extremely elliptical orbit with a semimajor axis of 53,000 AU (half the 106.000 AU radius). Part A Use Kepler's third law to find the collapse time, assuming the star has the same mass as the Sun. Express your answer in years to two significant figures.

Radio telescopes are an essential tool for modern astrophysics. They played a crucial role indiscovering a fascinating astronomical object: Pulsars - highly compact objects that periodicallyemit radiation. Pulsars are still an active part of astrophysical research.Explain how pulsars are formed and the causes for their pulsating behaviour.
Consideration of the total energy in a radio lobe of an AGN implies that the energy is distributed evenly between the particles in the lobes and the magnetic field. This implies that the magnetic field scales with observed luminosity L as Select one: a. [417 O b. is independent of L ○ c. 11/11 O d. 12/7 ○ e. L
The typical core-collapse supernova has an energy budget of about 1046 J. This energy comes from the gravitational potential energy of an inner core with mass Mic, which collapses from an initial radius of 5 x 106 m down to the final radius of 50 km. Estimate Mic, in solar masses, for this to be a realistic energy source of the core-collapse supernova. You may assume that the density before the collapse is uniform. Discuss briefly how a Type la supernova is different from a core-collapse supernova from a massive star?

Explain what is meant by the Schwarzschild radius of a black hole. Using a Newtonian approx- imation, derive an expression for the Schwarzschild radius, R, of a black hole of mass MBH- Calculate the Schwarzschild radius for a body with mass equal to the Sun's mass, and express your answer in units of kilometres.
Match each characteristic below to the appropriate stellar end state. (Select W-White dwarf, N-Neutron star, B-Black hole. If the first is W and the rest N, enter WNNNNNNN). A) Size defined by its Schwarzschild radius. B) Typically about the size of Earth. C) Usually has a very strong magnetic field. D) In a binary system it can explode as a supernova. E) Supported by electron degeneracy pressure. F) Sometimes appears as a pulsar. G) Viewed from afar, time stops at its event horizon. H) Has a mass no greater than 1.4 solar-masses.

As a mass m of gas falls into a black hole, at most 0.1mc2 is likely to emerge as radiation; the rest is swallowed by the black hole. Show the Eddington luminosity for a black hole of mass M is equivalent to 2*10-9 Mc2yr-1. Explain why we expect the black hole's mass to grow by at least a factor of e every 5*107 years. Where Edding Luminicity is defined as LE=(4piGMmpc)/(sigmaT), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the black hole, mp is the mass of a proton, c is the speed of light, and sigmaT is Thomson scattering where sigmaT=6.653*10-25 cm2.
