2021-10-05: Why Magnetic Monopoles SHOULD Exist

  • 16:22: ... Lyons asks what happens when the degeneracy pressure - the structural support against collapse produced by the Pauli ...
  • 16:32: ... if a collapsing stellar core is massive enough it smashes through the degeneracy pressure that supports white dwarf stars and instead produces a black hole or ...
  • 16:51: When degeneracy pressure is broken it’s because new space in quantum states opens up.
  • 17:05: So the loss of electrons reduces the degeneracy pressure, allowing gravitational collapse to continue.
  • 16:22: ... Lyons asks what happens when the degeneracy pressure - the structural support against collapse produced by the Pauli exclusion ...
  • 17:05: So the loss of electrons reduces the degeneracy pressure, allowing gravitational collapse to continue.

2021-09-15: Neutron Stars: The Most Extreme Objects in the Universe

  • 07:43: ... star is now increasingly supported by   neutron degeneracy pressure. But neutrons  can get much closer to each other before   ...

2020-12-15: The Supernova At The End of Time

  • 04:07: Unable to get any closer, the electrons in degenerate matter exert a powerful outward pressure - electron degeneracy pressure.
  • 04:32: ... realized they could be composed of his degenerate matter, and that degeneracy pressure alone would be enough to stop them from collapsing under their own ...
  • 04:55: Its core would collapse until halted by electron degeneracy pressure.
  • 05:49: ... this degeneracy pressure could support a dead star up to a point - if that stellar remnant’s mass ...
  • 06:06: ... fewer electrons means less electron degeneracy pressure, which means the star begins to collapse, which means more electrons ...

2018-05-02: The Star at the End of Time

  • 06:00: ... into a helium white dwarf, supported by quantum mechanical electron degeneracy pressure. ...

2018-03-07: Should Space be Privatized?

  • 11:42: When fusion switches off, the star contracts, until electron degeneracy pressure stops the collapse.

2017-09-20: The Future of Space Telescopes

  • 12:04: The final phase of the core of such a star is a giant ball of nickel and iron, held up briefly by electron degeneracy pressure.
  • 12:42: ... a neutron star holds this collapse, when they hit neutron degeneracy pressure, the most massive stars don't manage to stop before the core is smaller ...

2017-09-13: Neutron Stars Collide in New LIGO Signal?

  • 02:22: They are mostly composed of neutrons at the density of an atomic nucleus and are held up by a quantum mechanical force called degeneracy pressure.

2015-12-09: How to Build a Black Hole

  • 04:32: ... the degeneracy pressure, resulting from particles not having anywhere else to collapse into, is ...
  • 07:01: So Heisenberg lets us circumvent that pesky degeneracy pressure.
