This ‘Old’ Star Holds Secrets to the Cosmos—Here’s Why It Matters J0524-0336 stands out among the stars cataloged in the Milky Way It’s a massive star, around 30 times larger than our Sun, in the late stages of its life cycle These kinds of stars are usually unstable and display fluctuations in brightness and temperature
Giant star defies astronomers theories - Universe Space Tech Astronomers intend to continue studying J0524-0336 to see whether its composition changes and how If they are able to detect a cluster of dust in the circumstellar disk or a ring of debris, this would clearly indicate a companion absorption event
‘Old’ Star Could Provide New Insights into Star Evolution This star, named J0524-0336, was recently discovered during a survey that looked for older stars in the Milky Way It is an evolved star, meaning that it is in the later stages of its “life” and is beginning to grow unstable
Newly discovered star with the highest lithium content in the Universe “We found that J0524-0336 contains 100,000 times more lithium than the Sun does at its current age,” said Ezzeddine A star undergoing an extremely short lithium-flash? The team explored several possibilities to explain the extraordinary lithium content of J0524-0336
New Star Discovery Could Rewrite Stellar Evolution Theories Spectroscopy revealed that not only is J0524-0336 rich in lithium, but it also has a corresponding deficiency in heavier elements, making it a unique object of study among similarly aged stars The researchers are considering several hypotheses to explain the star’s unusual chemical makeup
