--- title: Stars tags: NTNU, 通識, Science and Life, Introduction to Astronomy --- # Star Life - Stellar Evolution - Red Giant Star - Losing gas form - Planetary Nebula - Supernova - After lose gas ( from less mass to massive mass ) - White Dwarf ( Sun will be ) - Neutron Star - ( Pulsar ) a kind of Neutron Star - Black Hole ![](https://i.imgur.com/VB249Tj.png) # Hertzsprung-Russell diagram - x-axis:Temperature - y-axis:Luminosity ![](https://i.imgur.com/aaZiola.png) - Main sequence - nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium # Schwarzschild radius - calculate $r$~sch~ = $\dfrac{2GM}{c^2}$ - the SUN is 3KM - So $r$~sch~ =$\dfrac{3M}{M~sun~}$ # Exoplanet - Explain - It is a planet outside the Solar System and orbit with stellar - How to find - Direct imaging - possible but not very useful - Transit Detection - useful - Color method - use Doppler effect of the Sun - Habitable Zone - liquid water exist or not ( roughly ) - Kepler-186f ( Similar to the Earth )
