How the universe will die?

Theoretical scientific explorations of the end of the universe were made possible by the general relativity given by the  Albert Einstein in 1915. here are many possibles outcomes of the theory it defines the universe at the largest structure possible. 

Alexander Friedmann came up with many solutions in 1922 and Georges Lemaitre in 1927. one of them suggests that the universe is expanding since the birth of the universe

To determine the ultimate fate of the universe the scientists need to gather the data regarding the critical density of the universe (the age density of matter required by the universe to stop the expansion).

 If in the case the density found to be lower than the critical density then the universe will continue to expand forever, if the density found to be equal to the critical density then the universe expands forever but will decrease it's the of expansion gradually and if the density found is more than the critical density the universe will stop expanding and will ultimately collapse.
   
     The Big Rip:-
It is a hypothetical cosmological event which is probably to happen 22 billion years from now. In this scenario the dark energy will keep pulling the universe apart under the very accelerating pace against the gravitational force and matter from stars, dust, planets etc will be torn apart into atoms and sub-particles and even space-time itself until each particle apart. arcelo Disconzi an assistant professor of mathematics in Tennessee along with the collaboration with physics professors Thomas Kephart and  Robert Scherrer came up with the theory of the Big Rip.
Marcelo took cosmological viscosity into consideration, which is the measure of fluid resistance to expansion and compression which is exhibited by supernovas and formation of neutron stars.Marcelo re-adjusted the equations relativistic fluid dynamics and with the help of collaborators came upon the conclusion of the universe with the big rip theory.

The Big Crunch:-
It is a hypothetical cosmological event in which after the certain amount of time the expanding universe will stop expanding and will reverse its flow and eventually all the matter in the universe will come at a very particular point like in the case of the Big Bang, this can only be the case if the gravitational force overcomes the dark energy but the vast majority of pieces of evidence shows that this theory is incorrect because the universe not only expanding but is expanding at an accelerating rate. 

Many think that if all the matter come closer to each other then it would mean that the time will flow backwards but it is not actually thermodynamically possible.

 Provided by the second law of thermodynamics, which states in an isolated system entropy tends to increase with time.

The Big Freeze:-
It is a hypothetical cosmological event like the Big Crunch but instead of causing another big bang in the Big Crunch but as the universe expands it will cool down losing essential heat and will eventually become too cold to sustain life in the universe.

 It is the most acceptable theory of the end of the universe. his theory comes from the fact the in an isolated system(like our universe) the entropy keeps on increasing till it reaches it's the maximum value the time it reaches it's the maximum he heat in the system will no longer be distributed in the system, as a result, everything in the universe might just go cold. 

stars will die and even the black holes will be vanished due to the Hawking Radiation.

Ursa minor constellation I Myths I facts I stars

Have you ever seen small dipper or Ursa minor in the clear night sky if not you must have heard about it? It is a constellation that consists of seven stars including the pole star or north star.  Ursa minor or little bear is a constellation beside the Ursa major which can be seen from the latitude of +90 to -10 degrees and lies in the third quadrant of the northern sky. It comprises of seven major stars. The four stars make the ladle structure while the other stars make the handle. It is known that little dipper was one of the 48 constellations discovered by the Greek astronomer and mathematician  Ptolemy   and now is one of the 88 constellations that mankind knows. The Ursa minor is helping many sailors, travelers, and lost people for ages to navigate them because of the pole star present at the tip of its tail. It is the brightest star in the constellation. If you are standing at the north pole then the Polaris will be right above your head. Ursa Major in the ...

What's so astonishing about Magnetar

A magnetar is a neutron star with a magnetic field greater than any other star in the universe. Same as any other neutron star, a magnetar is approximately 20 km wide and has mass many times the mass of the sun. When a big star undergoes supernova it either becomes a black hole or a  neutron star.  A magnetar is an exotic type of neutron star which has an enormous mass, it is thought that a tablespoon of the surface of magnetar or neutron star will be equal to the millions of tons of mass of matter. A magnetar releases a huge amount of electromagnetic radiation and gamma-ray bursts(GRBs) in space when there is a sudden change at its core popularly known as the starquake. Illustration of Magnetar A magnetar roughly 4000 light-years can wipe out the whole life form we know on earth. The magnetic field of the magnetar can damage all electronic circuits, grids, and satellites orbiting the earth, and in no matter of time, our whole communication system will be destroyed...

Types of black hole

What is a black hole ? A black hole in space is a region where the gravitational force is so strong that even light can not escape it.  Any matter which comes under the influence of a  black hole will be crushed down to a confined space and is being eaten by the black hole.  Black holes are formed when a star dies. Not every star can become a black hole only which have mass 1.4 times the mass of our sun. ( approx   2.8E30). A few black holes are orbited by the other heavenly bodies and are slowly eaten away by the black holes.  As the matter falls towards the event horizon it gets heated due to the increasing gravitational pull and the friction and forms a bright circular disc around the black hole known as Assertion disc .   On the basis of mass and sizes black holes has been divided into four categories:- 1.) Stellar black holes   When a star with a mass range from five to several tens times of the solar masses c...
