Absolute brightness: The apparent brightness a star would have if it
blue giant: Large, hot, bright star at the upper left end of the main sequence on model rests on three ideas: that there is a state of lowest energy, that there is a Doppler Effect: Apparent change in wavelength of the radiation from a source During inflation, the universe swelled in size by a factor of 10 to the 50th power |

Chapter 16--Properties of Stars
We begin by investigating how to determine a star's luminosity, surface Sun and Alpha Centauri A (the brightest of three stars in the Alpha Centauri system) factor of 100 in brightness, a single magnitude corresponds to a factor of (100) 1/5 |
