Stellar kinematics — is the study of the movement of stars without needing to understand how they acquired their motion. This differs from stellar dynamics, which takes into account gravitational effects. The motion of a star relative to the Sun can provide useful… … Wikipedia
Stellar rotation — is the angular motion of a star about its axis. The rate of rotation can be measured from the spectrum of the star, or by timing the movements of active features on the surface.The rotation of a star produces an equatorial bulge due to… … Wikipedia
Stellar classification — In astronomy, stellar classification is a classification of stars based on their spectral characteristics. The spectral class of a star is a designated class of a star describing the ionization of its chromosphere, what atomic excitations are… … Wikipedia
Stellar evolution — Life cycle of a Sun like star Stellar evolution is the process by which a star undergoes a sequence of radical changes during its lifetime. Depending on the mass of the star, this lifetime ranges from only a few million years (for the most… … Wikipedia
Magnitude (astronomy) — For other uses, see Magnitude (disambiguation). Magnitude is the logarithmic measure of the brightness of an object, in astronomy, measured in a specific wavelength or passband, usually in optical or near infrared wavelengths. Contents 1… … Wikipedia
Stellar black hole — A stellar black hole is a black hole formed by the gravitational collapse of a massive star (20 or more solar masses, though the exact amount of mass needed has not been determined and may depend on many parameters) at the end of its lifetime.… … Wikipedia
Stellar engine — Diagram of a Class C Stellar Engine to scale built around a sun like star. It consists of a partial Dyson swarm composed of 5 Dyson Rings of solar collectors (the Class B component), and a large statite Shkadov thruster (the Class A component).… … Wikipedia
Stellar structure — Stars of different mass and age have varying internal structures. Stellar structure models describe the internal structure of a star in detail and make detailed predictions about the luminosity, the color and the future evolution of the… … Wikipedia
magnitude — (mag) 1. a unit traditionally used in astronomy to express the apparent brightness of stars, planets, and other objects in the sky. For centuries, the brightest stars were said to be of the first magnitude, with fainter ones of the second… … Dictionary of units of measurement
Apparent magnitude — Asteroid 65 Cybele and 2 stars with their magnitudes labeled The apparent magnitude (m) of a celestial body is a measure of its brightness as seen by an observer on Earth, normalized to the value it would have in the absence of the atmosphere.… … Wikipedia
