There is no real classification for stars by size, they are usually classified by luminosity However, a rough guide is:-

  1. Hypergiants
  2. Supergiants
  3. Bright Giants
  4. Giants
  5. Sub giants
  6. Dwarfs
  7. Sub dwarfs
  8. Red dwarfs
  9. White dwarfs
  10. Brown dwarfs
  11. Neutron stars

How are stars classified by size and temperature?

Stars are classified by size using the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, which categorizes them based on luminosity and temperature. Stars are sorted into main sequence, giant, supergiant, or dwarf categories. Temperature determines a star's color, with hotter stars appearing blue-white and cooler stars appearing red.

3 ways to classify stars?

By spectral type: Stars can be classified based on their spectral characteristics, which provides information about their temperature, color, and composition. By luminosity: Stars can be categorized by their brightness, which can vary greatly based on their size and energy output. By evolutionary stage: Stars can be classified based on where they are in their life cycle, such as main sequence stars, red giants, white dwarfs, etc.
