Apr 29, 2025 · The Hertzsprung–Russell diagram (commonly abbreviated as H–R diagram) is a graphical tool that astronomers use to classify stars based on their luminosity (or absolute …

Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, in astronomy, graph in which the absolute magnitudes (intrinsic brightness) of stars are plotted against their spectral types (temperatures).

The NAAP HR Diagram Lab explores the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram and those areas necessary to understand the diagram such as (but not limited to) the different kinds of …

The H-R diagram is a scatter graph of stars – a plot of stellar absolute magnitude or luminosity versus surface temperature or stellar classification. Stages of stellar evolution occupy specific …

This Hertzsprung-Russell diagram shows a group of stars in various stages of their evolution. By far the most prominent feature is the main sequence, which runs from the upper left (hot, …

Such a plot is frequently called the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, abbreviated H–R diagram. It is one of the most important and widely used diagrams in astronomy, with applications that …
