Hybrid Star (other)
{{disambiguation ...
Hybrid star may refer to: * Thorne–Żytkow object (TZO), a cool evolved star that contains a neutron star * Hybrid-chromosphere star, an evolved star with a hot corona and cool stellar wind * A variable star that is a hybrid pulsator * A neutron star with a quark core, forming a quark star See also * Strange star A strange star, also called a strange quark star, is a hypothetical compact astronomical object, a quark star made of strange quark matter. Strange stars might exist without regard to the Bodmer–Witten assumption of stability at near-zero te ...

Thorne–Żytkow Object
A Thorne–Żytkow object (TŻO or TZO), a type of hybrid star, is a conjectured type of star wherein a red giant or Red supergiant star, red supergiant contains a neutron star at its core, formed from the Stellar collision, collision of the giant with the neutron star. Such objects were hypothesized by Kip Thorne and Anna Żytkow in 1977. In 2014, it was discovered that the star HV 2112, located in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), was a strong candidate, though this view has since been refuted. Another possible candidate is the star HV 11417, also located in the SMC. Formation A Thorne–Żytkow object would be formed when a neutron star collides with another star, often a red giant or supergiant. The colliding objects can simply be wandering stars, though this is only likely to occur in extremely crowded globular clusters. Alternatively, the neutron star could form in a binary star, binary system when one of the two stars goes supernova. Because Supernova#Asymmetry, no super ...
