← ScienceWhich mechanism dominates when an over-dense neutron star collapses?
A)Spacetime singularity formation✓
B)Electron degeneracy pressure increase
C)Rapid neutron capture process
D)Magnetohydrodynamic rotational instability
💡 Explanation
Spacetime singularity formation occurs because gravity overwhelms all other forces, crushing matter to infinite density via gravitational collapse. Therefore a singularity forms, rather than the neutron star reaching stability, because degeneracy presssure is insufficient to support the mass.
