Exploring Magnetars: The Most Powerful Stars in the Universe

Magnetars, also known as magnetic stars or magneto neutron stars, are celestial objects that possess an extraordinarily intense magnetic field. They are among the most fascinating and powerful stars in the universe. In this article, we will delve into the definition of magnetars, their immense strength, their effects on Earth, their presence in the Milky Way, and even touch upon their comparison with black holes. So, fasten your seatbelts as we embark on a captivating journey into the world of magnetars. Read full article here.

Are Magnetars The Most Powerful Star In The Universe?

A magnetar is a kind of neutron star with the strongest magnetic fields now understood to exist in the Universe. 

It is the little pink dot in the middle of this picture. 

A magnetar would erase all of the information on Earth's credit cards if it were situated around 64,000 kilometers from the Moon.

A refrigerator magnet has a strength of around 100 Gauss compared to the Earth's magnetic field's value of roughly 1. 

About a million billion Gauss of magnetic fields are present in magnetars.

The field of a Magnetar is roughly a trillion times stronger than the field of the Earth and about a thousand times greater than a typical neutron star. 

The universe's most magnetic stars are without a doubt magnetars.

Alright, for those not up to date on Iskall's vods, here's the deal. He's been dealing with something truly horrid since his last youtube upload, something he does not want to talk about.

However, he's planning on making a return to uploading videos soonish. No specific dates. Just soon.

When Iskall does return- whenever that might be- we should try to come out in force for him. Remember when Mumbo took some time off? When Jevin mentioned he was feeling crummy? When Wels and Joe said they needed some help?

Same deal. When Iskall comes back, let's get into that comments section and make some positive noise!

This artist impression shows HD 45166, a massive star recently discovered to have a powerful magnetic field of 43 000 gauss, the strongest magnetic field ever found in a massive star. Intense winds of particles blowing away from the star are trapped by this magnetic field, enshrouding the star in a gaseous shell as illustrated here.

Astronomers believe that this star will end its life as a magnetar, a compact and highly magnetic stellar corpse. As HD 45166 collapses under its own gravity, its magnetic field will strengthen, and the star will eventually become a very compact core with a magnetic field of around 100 trillion gauss — the most powerful type of magnet in the Universe.

HD 45166 is part of a binary system. In the background, we get a glimpse of HD 45166’s companion, a normal blue star that has been found to orbit at a far larger distance than previously reported.Credit:

Researchers using Murriyang, CSIRO's Parkes radio telescope, have detected unusual radio pulses from a previously dormant star with a powerful magnetic field. The paper, "Linear to circular conversion in the polarized radio emission of a magnetar," published in Nature Astronomy describe radio signals from magnetar XTE J1810-197 behaving in complex ways. Magnetars are a type of neutron star and the strongest magnets in the universe. At roughly 8,000 light years away, this magnetar is also the closest known to Earth.

A magnetar is a type of neutron star with an extremely powerful magnetic field (∼109 to 1011 T, ∼1013 to 1015 G). The magnetic-field decay powers the emission of high-energy electromagnetic radiation, particularly X-rays and gamma rays ⚡️

Throwback to my first time cheating at multiplayer minecraft. Put your torches down, let me explain. And no, I haven’t done it since.

I don’t remember what version it was, only that it was a very long time ago. Food healed hearts directly, and- this is the important part- mossy cobblestone could not be crafted or mined anywhere in the overworld save the floors of dungeons.

It also was a brilliant, vibrant green, so much more aggressive than its current gentle texture, but that’s neither here nor there.

I was playing on a survival server I’ve long since forgotten the name of, and I was putting the finishing touches on my lovely brick house. But the floor, no no. I was a picky child; only the finest of flooring would do.

I wanted mossy cobblestone.

Immediately I was at an impasse. I could strip mine and explore caves in the hope of finding one dungeon; but I needed two whole stacks of it for my floor. There was no /locate command at the time, and I knew nobody else well enough to ask for it. And at the time, chunkbase and other seed scanning tools didn’t exist; not that it would have helped, since I didn’t have the world seed.

Perplexed, I logged off and consulted with friends at school the next day.

There, I was advised to try an x-ray texture pack.

So I did.

And it worked a treat! The dungeons were rendered perfectly visible to me, and I easily dug straight down (smart and subtle!) and raked in the precious mossy cobblestone I needed.

At one point, one of the mods asked me in chat if I was x-raying. Having just turned off the pack minutes before the message came through, I cheerfully said no and skipped off to finish my floor.

At no point during this entire exercise did it occur to child me to use the x-ray pack to mine for the diamonds I could clearly see.
