Physics 202: Introduction to Astronomy – Lecture 20

This lecture, part of the Introduction to Astronomy series by Carsten Denker at NJIT, delves into the fascinating realms of neutron stars, pulsars, and black holes. Topics covered include the magnetic fields of neutron stars, angular momentum, pulsar radiation, and the distances and luminosity of cosmic objects. The lecture also discusses gravitational phenomena such as escape speed, singularities, tidal forces, time dilation, and gravitational redshift. With an emphasis on observational evidence, this session aims to enhance understanding of these extraordinary celestial entities.
