Stellar size and class diversification originates from the initial mass of the molecular cloud from which stars form. The elemental composition of the molecular cloud, specifically the abundance of ...
Time-domain astronomy is progressing rapidly with the ongoing and upcoming large-scale photometric sky surveys led by the Vera C. Rubin Observatory project (LSST). Billions of variable sources call ...
By relating the spectral lines to the temperatures and abundances of elements in stars, Payne-Gaposchkin refined and explained temperature estimates for the different classifications of stars, for ...
