... A, F, G, K, and M, and though the letter designations have no meaning other than that imposed on them by history, the names have stuck to this day. Each spectral class is divided into tenths, so that a B0 star follows an O9, and an A0, a B9. The early spectral classification system was based on the ...

... surface temperature of 100,000K which cools down to become a white dwarf. The high energy ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the nebular material and is reemitted into spectral lines which give the ejected gas shell its glowing color. The ejected matter of the shell contains carbon, nitrogen, oxyg ...

... those responsible for the granulation seen on the surface of the Sun, are an example of such macroturbulence. Such macroturbulence can often also be approximated by a velocity distribution similar to eq. 6.11, with an equivalent bturb . Other types of large-scale motion, such as rotation, cannot; th ...

From the figure, one sees that most stars fall along a diagonal strip from high temperature, high lumi ...

Chasing the Pole — Howard L. Cohen
... Interestingly, all three stars in this triple system have similar principle spectral classes (Type F) showing they are all slightly hotter than the Sun. Polaris, however, is a supergiant or bright giant star, about 2,400 times more luminous than the Sun and 45 times larger in diameter, but much more ...
