A
Apparent BrightnessHow bright a star appears from Earth. | |
B
Black HoleA region of space where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. | |
E
Event HorizonThe boundary around a black hole beyond which escape is impossible. | |
G
GiantA large, luminous star that has exhausted much of its core hydrogen. | |
H
HeliumThe element produced during hydrogen fusion in most stars. | |
Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) DiagramA graph that compares the luminosity and surface temperature of stars. | |
Hydrogen FusionThe process in which hydrogen nuclei combine to form helium inside stars. | |
Hydrostatic EquilibriumThe balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward pressure produced by fusion. | |
L
LuminosityThe total amount of energy a star emits each second. | |
M
Main SequenceThe diagonal band where most stars spend the majority of their lifetimes fusing hydrogen into helium. | |
