Luminosity of Stars Calculator
Posted by Dinesh onOnline luminosity astronomy calculator to calculate total amount of energy (brightness, temperature) emitted by a star, galaxy, or other astronomical object per unit time using luminosity stars temperature formula.
Spectral Type | Temperature | Color |
---|---|---|
O | 30,000 - 60,000 K | Blue stars |
B | 10,000 - 30,000 K | Blue-white stars |
A | 7,500 - 10,000 K | White stars |
F | 6,000 - 7,500 K | Yellow-white stars |
G | 5,000 - 6,000 K | Yellow stars (like the Sun) |
K | 3,500 - 5,000K | Yellow-orange stars |
M | < 3,500 K | Red stars |
Calculate Total Amount of Energy (Brightness, Temperature) Emitted by a Star
Formula:
L = [4•π•d2•b]
where,π = 3.142857142857143
,d = distance,
b = Brightness,
L = luminosity of the star
