1) Look at star B. What is its spectral type, temperature, luminosity, and color?
2) Look at star D. What is its spectral type, temperature, luminosity, and color?
3) Which star is coolest? Which star is hottest? Which star has the smallest radius? Which star has the largest radius?
4) Classify all of the lettered stars on the diagram into one of the following four categories: Main Sequence, White Dwarf, Giants, Supergiants
5) What properties do stars of the same spectral type share?
6) Look at the left side of the diagram. Notice how all of the hot stars with temperatures between 7000K and 41000K are jammed in. On the right side, the range of temperatures is much smaller. This is because of the choice of filters.
Choose among the following filters the best pair to study hot stars (O, B, and A): Ultraviolet, blue, visible yellow, red, infrared
