There is no star with that name. Many stars have names that start with "Epsilon", followed by the genitive of a constellation, e.g. "Epsilon Cruxis", "Epsilon Geminorum", etc. If its epsilon segin cassiopeia, it is 520L/Y(light years) away from earth.


Is a black hole eclipsing Epsilon Aurigae causing the mid-eclipse brightening due to lensing... like a flashlight?

No the Theory That a Black Hole is causing the Eclipsing of Epsilon Aurigae has been Discarded, Mainly because the Eclipsing companion does not show the characteristics of a Black Hole. the accepted Model for the companion is that its a Binary Star system surrounded by a immense disk consisting of dust and that a "Central Opening Lay" in the disc is causing the sudden Brightness increase mid way through an eclipse. The Exact Nature of the Eclipsing Component is currently unclear, and there are Many Theories Explaining what it actually is. you can read a comprehensive article about the Epsilon Aurigae system on AAVO (American Association of Variable Star Observers) Website. http://www.aavso.org/vstar/vsots/eps_aur.shtml Read More about it on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epsilon_Aurigae

What is the luminsity of epsilon auigae?

Epsilon Aurigae, a binary star system, has a luminosity estimated to be around 5,000 times that of the Sun. It is primarily known for its unique characteristics, including a long eclipse period caused by the interaction with a large, obscuring disk of material surrounding the system's companion star. This high luminosity contributes to its visibility and significance in astronomical studies.


What type of star is almaaz?

Since Almaaz, also known as Epsilon Aurigae is a binary star, meaning two stars in one, it is both a yellow dwarf and a blue giant causing a slight whitish tint to both stars. You can find Almaaz in the Auriga constellation.


Is The distance from Earth to the star Epsilon Eridani is about 10.5 light years.?

Yes, the distance from Earth to the star Epsilon Eridani is approximately 10.5 light years. This makes it one of the closer stars to our solar system, located in the constellation Eridanus. Epsilon Eridani is of interest to astronomers due to its similarities to the Sun and its potential for hosting planetary systems.


What is the value for episilon?

'Epsilon' is the fifth letter in the Greek alphabet. When used as a symbol to represent math and science things, its value completely depends on the definition you give it. For example, if you were to define epsilon as the wavelength of blue light in feet, then its value would be 0.0000013123 (rounded), whereas if you define epsilon as the average distance between the Earth and sun in Astronomical Units, then its value is precisely 1.0000 . It all depends on your definition of epsilon.
