Enter two words to compare and contrast their definitions, origins, and synonyms to better understand how those words are related.

supernova

Supernova - What does it mean?

Supernova vs Blackhole - What's the difference?

supernova | blackhole |


As nouns the difference between supernova and blackhole

is that supernova is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II) while blackhole is an alternative spelling of nodot=x|lang=en, especially in the attributive.

As a verb blackhole is

to redirect (network traffic, etc.) nowhere; to discard incoming traffic.

Supernova vs Magnetocentrifugal - What's the difference?

supernova | magnetocentrifugal |


As a noun supernova

is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II).

As an adjective magnetocentrifugal is

describing the rotating magnetic flux jets associated with supernovae etc.

Supernova vs Bosenova - What's the difference?

supernova | bosenova |


As nouns the difference between supernova and bosenova

is that supernova is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II) while bosenova is a very small, supernova-like explosion, which can be induced in a Bose-Einstein condensate by suitably changing its magnetic field.

Supernova vs Neutrinosphere - What's the difference?

supernova | neutrinosphere |


As nouns the difference between supernova and neutrinosphere

is that supernova is supernova while neutrinosphere is (astronomy) the region of a star or supernova rich in neutrinos.

Supernova vs Superbubble - What's the difference?

supernova | superbubble |


In astronomy terms the difference between supernova and superbubble

is that supernova is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II) while superbubble is a very large region of space, relatively free of matter, created by multiple supernova explosions.

Supernova vs Presupernova - What's the difference?

supernova | presupernova |


In astronomy terms the difference between supernova and presupernova

is that supernova is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II) while presupernova is describing the period, and the events, prior to a star becoming a supernova.

Supernova vs Deleptonization - What's the difference?

supernova | deleptonization |


As nouns the difference between supernova and deleptonization

is that supernova is supernova while deleptonization is (physics|astronomy) the loss of leptons from a supernova or rotating protoneutron star.

Supernova vs Lrn - What's the difference?

supernova | lrn |


As nouns the difference between supernova and lrn

is that supernova is a star which explodes, increasing its brightness to typically a billion times that of our sun, though attenuated by the great distance from our sun. Some leave only debris (Type I); others fade to invisibility as neutron stars (Type II) while LRN is Luminous Red Nova — an astronomical event, believed to be a type of stellar explosion, intermediate in power between that of a nova and a supernova, which as the explosive debris expands it reddens and cools, opposite of novae and supernovae, in which thinning explosive debris exposes hotter interior layers.
