If you didn’t turn it in yesterday Please turn in your HR diagram activity

Learning Goals: 4. Complex Knowledge: demonstrations of learning that go aboveand above and beyond what was explicitly taught. 3. Knowledge: meeting the learning goals and expectations. 2. Foundational knowledge: simpler procedures, isolated details, vocabulary. 1. Limited knowledge: know very little details but working toward a higher level. How do stars differ from moons and planets, and from one another? How does the classification of stars help us understand how they evolve over their lifetimes? What are the different types of stars? What happens when different types of stars die? Why is it important for us to understand stars?

Bell Work 3-9-16 Why are HR diagrams considered so useful in astronomy?

Types of stars Type Hypergiant Supergiant Giant Subgiant Main sequence symbol Properties Examples Hypergiant Supergiant I Giant III Subgiant IV Main sequence V White dwarf VII

Stars are classified into luminosity classes.

Today’s Question What two factors do we need to know to determine a stars luminosity? How do we determine a stars size, and therefore it’s luminosity?

Main Sequence Stars follow this pattern. Not all stars do though.

Stars are classified into luminosity classes.  Hypergiants: A hypergiant (luminosity class 0) is a star with an enormous mass and luminosity, showing signs of a very high rate of mass loss. Hypergiants are very rare and they have a short lifespan. While the Sun has a lifespan of around 10 billion years, hypergiants will only exist for a few million years.

Hypergiants are the largest stars in the universe, even larger than supergiants. The largest hypergiant was VY Canis Majoris, which is between 1300 and 1540 times wider than the Sun, or roughly the same diameter as the orbit of Jupiter.

Then we found V354 Cephei, which held the title for a while Then we found V354 Cephei, which held the title for a while. Then came the hypergiant NML Cygni, which is about 1,650 times wider than the Sun.

Now the largest is Westerlund 1 BKS AS Now the largest is Westerlund 1 BKS AS. It is one of the extreme luminous supergiant stars.

Stars are classified into luminosity classes.  Supergiants: Very massive and luminous stars near the end of their lives. They can also be a or b, a are brighter. These stars are very rare, less than 1 in a million stars is a supergiant. The nearest is Canopus (F0Ib) 310 light years away. Others are Betelgeuse (M2Ib), Rigel (B8Ia), and Antares (M1Ib) .

Stars are classified into luminosity classes. Giants: mainly low-mass stars at the end of their lives that have swelled to become a giant star. This category also includes some high mass stars evolving on their way to supergiant status . Some examples are Arcturus (K2III), Hadar (B1III), Pollux (K0III) and Aldebaran (K5III).

Stars are classified into luminosity classes. Subgiants: Stars which have begun evolving to giant or supergiant status. examples are Alnair (B2.5IV) and Muphrid (G0IV). Note also Procyon which is entering this category and therefore is: F5IV-V.

Stars are classified into luminosity classes. Main Sequence (dwarf): All normal hydrogen-burning stars. Stars spend most of their lives in this category before evolving up the scale. Class O and B stars in this category are actually very bright and luminous and generally brighter than most Giant stars. examples are the Sun (G2V), Sirius (A1V), and Vega (A0V).

Stars are classified into luminosity classes. White Dwarf: a small object composed mostly of electron-degenerate matter (huh?). They are the very dense cores of past stars (a teaspoon of white dwarf would weigh the same as an elephant); mass is comparable to the Sun and its volume is comparable to Earth. Its faint luminosity comes from the emission of stored thermal energy. This makes them very hot but very faint. Examples are Sirius B and Procyon B

There are other objects that sometimes fail to fit our classification scheme Brown Dwarfs objects which are too large to be called planets and too small to be stars. They have masses that range between twice the mass of Jupiter and the lower mass limit for nuclear reactions (0.08 times the mass of our sun).

Read the article about brown dwarfs. Answer this question in your science journal when you are done Why are brown dwarfs more like stars than planets?

How can we tell which class a star belongs to? DENSITY! The higher the Roman Numeral, the MORE DENSE the star How do we tell the density of the star? Spectral lines! (yes, those again) The thinner the lines, the thinner the stars atmosphere, and the less dense the star, so the bigger it is (and the lower the Roman Numeral)
