For an introduction to degenerate matter, followed by a description the various stages of a stellar remnant's collapse preceding the possible formation of a black hole, see here. We call this type of explosion a "Type Ia supernova" ("Type Ia" is a historical moniker from before we understood what was exploding), and the supernova completely obliterates the white dwarf. While nothing in the universe just evaporates into emptiness, lets stop the process there and say we can call the time of death at these end points: White dwarf, neutron star, and black hole. Neutron star simulation in Astrophysics is being discussed at Physics Forums. The satellite provided unprecedented views into the extreme environments around white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Black holes, like neutron stars, white dwarfs and normal stars, also have strong magnetic fields that get even stronger the closer you get to the event horizon, or the point from which light cannot escape. Eventually, in 100 trillion years, the last stars will have died, all that remains are their corpses: white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Have you tried Black Holes, White Dwarfs, and Neutron Stars, by Shapiro and Teukolsky? This includes white dwarf stars, neutron stars and black holes. Once the last of the red dwarfs exhaust their fuel, all nuclear fusion in the universe will have ceased. An artist's impression of the merger of two neutron stars. RXTE sent data from its last science observation to the ground early on Jan. Short duration gamma-ray bursts are thought to be caused by the merger of some combination of white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes.
