Stars don't make sounds. They're balls of burning gas.

when you turn on the fm (or is it am? the one that doesn't get stuff bounced back from earth) and hear soem sounds, isn't tha tfrm stars?
i recall hearing some science thing about scientsts thinking they got a signal from extraterrestraial life, but realising it was just emisions from a star.... they were surprised by the complex repetative patterns from it, or something
all i care about is some wavelength that can be converted into sound that originated from that star. that way i can have a songmade based on the pulse from her star.
the link i sent has something about Doppler/Fizeau effects or something, but it's way beyond my area of understanding of physics diadem fucked around with this message on 04-02-2005 at 08:08 PM.

Are you planning on making the song?
All joking aside, I think it's a sweet idea. I'm sure she'll really appreciate the thought that you put into this.

On a serious note... I'd rather have a lab-created diamond or a Canadian mined diamond to say away from that.. But the lab-created ones are had to find so far, and the canadian ones are super-expensive.

They've actually embedded flaws in some lab-created gems to make them appear more natural. (the lab-created rubies are a good example of this).
Why not? I mean, they have the same physical properties of real diamonds. Still though, people will buy the blood diamonds just for the "prestige" of a "real" diamond.
Only difference is one has more dirt.

if i recall correctly, debeers are going to distrubte tools that can determine if a diamond is "real" or not. basicly, artifical diamonds are completly flawless, real/blood ones aren't.
fuck debeers.

You're thinking about xray and radiation emissions being "downsampled" into an audible range. This only works with neutron stars and black holes, as only they have oscillating energy emissions.

My girlfriend's birthday present this year was the Evenstar from LOTR with 7 flawless lab-created diamonds 
They cost a shitload.
holy fuck...
A: Stars make sound, they are gaseous after all, compression waves exist as long as there is a medium for it to pass through, and the solar corona, aka the atmosphere of the sun, extends out many solar radii and during peak years can extend out up to 4-5 A.U., 5 times the distance from the earth to the sun....
the medium usually out to 1 solar radii beyond the surface is usually dense enough *500 particles/cc* to propigate a compression wave, beyond that it suffers extinction.
B: they all oscilate at some freq, caused from orbiting planets, stars, and galaxies. ours oscilates more from it's differential rotation than anything, although the amplitude is small, it does vary.
C: and the buggers emit at ALL Frequencies, just at a varied rate depending on the surface temp, ours is actually more green (600+-50nm) than anything else (5800K Black body radiating curve peak)
D: 25% of all solar flares happen to noted by a mass ejection, and from our sensors, we find that the sun actually belches out the flare, this belch releases enough particles to be seen as a Compression wave.

Go to a college and ask around 
I know they have sound.. but.. i dont think its a "tone" more like a bunch of white noise at the same time

Razoring:

By that definition, all matter "makes sound", which just isn't true. Sound exists inside stars but they do not generate anything that could be considered sound, particularly not anything rhythmic. Even neutron stars and other pulsar type stars don't generate audible SOUND, they generate oscillating energy emissions that can be turned INTO sound in the same sense that a visualization plugin for Winamp "turns" sound into light.

Eh, Maradon got it pretty good. Technically everything makes something that can be put into sound if you arbitrarily assign notes to paticular kinds of emissions. But stars (for the most part) are pretty steady in emissions of various kinds of energy.
If it were me i'd just light a fart on fire and record that. Explosive flaming gas is, after all, explosive flaming gas.
I'm also 19, bored at work, and have a picture of a man stuffing an angry monkey down his pants as a sigpic. So take that into consideration before accepting any advice. Dr. Gee fucked around with this message on 04-04-2005 at 05:53 PM.

That's what all stars do, even the densely packed neutron stars, the sound they make is there, there's no real patter, but there is sound. Understanding the fact that it takes a medium for sound to pass through; the denser the medium, the faster it travels, outo to the chromosphere, it is at a minimum 100 times as dense as the average rock density of the Earth. There are explosions and many other events that happen on the sun that generate sound in the audible range, reason we don't hear it, it's too far for one, and two it's medium density drops to that of a vaccum, thus propigation becomes ultimately stopped.
All matter can make sound emission, watch vibrating particles, or bring a tunig fork of the right note next to a piano and play that note, it begins to vibrate, it's also why if you have a pendelum system the two will share energy and osscilate with each other. Take a look at wave functions of sound and wave functions of light, the look pretty dame close, with only a few differences.
Neutron stars, that are x-ray emitters, can be seen to osscilate anywhere from .005Hz to 40+Hz, just outside our audible range, this osscilation is consistent that they would be generating sound, but we can't hear it. Just like the idea behind a geiger counter with audible output, we can't really hear the alpha particles because of their energy output is way too small when it collides and the rest of the variables that it could do.
Refering to the winamp comment; Yes you can do that, and scientists have done what you have said about converting radio to x-ray signals into sound. Alot of it is just "white noise". I never said it's rhythmic at all.
Our sun oscilates in a variable fashion, but depends mostly on Jupiter, it works not in the fashion that it shakes and shimmies by itself, but on the two factors of differential rotation and the ever changing center of gravity of the planetary system. Binary and trinary stars osscilate with respect to each other. and lone stars osscilate with respect to the galaxy and other stars nearby.
The reason I noted the surface temp was the fact the the emission spectra is strongest in different areas, thusly the emitted light varies, there are stars out there that emit in the radio freq, other much larger ones emit at high energy x-ray.
I'm supprised you're challenging someone in the field, but I admit I don't know everything, that's another course, and the best part is that this is mainly the basics. And knowledge can spur on the understanding. it ust takes a while for all of the knowledge to be understood. I admit, I don't have a degree in the field yet, but I will in time. If I get a chance to get to school tomorrow I'll go look up in the archives of "The Astronomical Journal" to help you understand.
What's being sought is some sort of regular burst of energy emmission that can be used for a rythm. What Maradon and i are trying to say is that something like this probably won't be found from a "normal" star and you'd need to look towards some of the more exotic celestial objects like a black hole or pulsating neutron star to find a kind of regular, rythmic energy emission that can be easily obtained from the wash of white noise that is the electromagnetic background of the universe.
As far as using stars to make music, it's been done. Isao Tomita's Dawn Chorus album was done that way.
