Why are there no black holes or neutron stars on the H R diagram?

The Hertzsprung--Russell diagram is a scatter graph of stars showing the relationship between the stars' absolute magnitudes or luminosities versus their spectral types or classifications and effective temperatures.
Because the luminosity is low or non existent in the case of black holes, they do not appear on the HR diagram.

Why are there no black holes or neutron stars on the H-R diagram?
The Hertzsprung--Russell diagram is a scatter graph of stars showing the relationship between the stars' absolute magnitudes or luminosities versus their spectral types or classifications and effective temperatures.Because the luminosity is low or non existent in the case of black holes, they do not appear on the HR diagram.
What are remnants of high mass star?
Neutron stars and black holes.
Do most massive stars collapse into black holes?
Most stars end up as white dwarfs. A few become neutron stars. Even fewer become black holes.
What are two possible causes of gamma ray bursts?
neutron stars and black holes
Do black holes and neutron stars have any connection?
Only in that they where formed by the same process. A neutron star formed from a star with less mass than a black hole
