Q. What is the name of the Disintegrated Neutron Star with the most intense magnetic field?
Answer: Magnetar
Notes: When giant stars collapse, they form neutron stars, and some of these neutron stars form a small group with the most intense magnetic field, known as Magnetars. Led by Institute of Astrophysics (IAA-CSIC), astronomers have recently studied a flash ‘GRB2001415’, which occurred on April 15, 2020 and lasted only around one tenth of a second. As per the study, the energy that was released is equivalent to the energy that our Sun radiates in 1,00,000 years.
