The result of a Brown Dwarf & Red Dwarf collision
« on: May 05, 2017, 06:22:30 PM »
I tested what kind of phenomenon would occur if I collided together a high-end Brown Dwarf and low-end Red Dwarf. Both are around 78 Jupiter masses. But the result that the experiment produced seems to be a very hot, bluish star. Yet, it does not seem to be a blue giant, owing to its still relatively low mass of about 100 Jupiter masses. I wonder what it could be.

The red dwarf looks a bit more like a very low-temperature white dwarf considering its size.

It shouldn't be. I grabbed a main sequence star and lowered its mass. I think the thing was that I forgot to set both their ages to the same. Over time stars compress and their density increases.
