The emission of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, such as gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet rays, infrared radiation, visible light, microwaves, and radio waves. These emissions are all measurable and are also used to determine how far the star is and how fast/far it is moving away from our galaxy based on the expanding universe theory.

How can astronomers detect a binary star if only one of the two stars is visible from earth?

Astronomers can detect a binary star system, where only one star is visible, by observing the gravitational effects of the unseen companion on the visible star. They can analyze the visible star's motion, such as its changes in velocity or position, which may indicate that it is being influenced by the gravity of the hidden star. Additionally, variations in the visible star's brightness or spectral lines can provide clues about its companion's presence. Techniques like radial velocity measurements and astrometry help confirm the existence of the unseen binary partner.
