No. The diameter of Sirius A is about 1.7 times that of the sun. To be considered a supergiant a star must be at least 100 times the diameter of the sun.
No. Sirius is actually two stars. The main body, Sirius A, is a fairly large star, larger than the sun, but it is nowhere near the size of a supergiant. Sirius B is a white dwarf, a small, dense remnant of a star that is, int his case, slightly smaller than Earth.
Sirius and Betelgeuse are both bright stars in the night sky, but they differ in size, color, and temperature. Sirius is a white star, while Betelgeuse is a red supergiant. Betelgeuse is also much larger and cooler than Sirius.
No. The sun is a main sequence star.
A non red giant is a giant, whereas a supergiant is well a supergiant and is a lot bigger.
Alpha Ophiuchi is considered to have a stellar classification of A5 III, which makes it a "normal" giant, not a supergiant.

Five well-known stars are Sirius, Betelgeuse, Vega, Rigel, and Polaris. Sirius, located in the constellation Canis Major, is the brightest star in the night sky. Betelgeuse is a red supergiant in Orion, while Vega is part of the Lyra constellation. Rigel, another star in Orion, is a blue supergiant, and Polaris is known as the North Star, located in Ursa Minor.
No. The sun is a main sequence star.
Sirius and Betelgeuse are two of the brightest stars in the night sky, with Sirius being the brightest and Betelgeuse being the 9th brightest. Betelgeuse is in the wonderful constellation of Orion. Sirius is in the nearby constellation of Canis Major. They are very easy to spot, with Betelgeuse being at the top left of Orion and Sirius, being below and to the left of Orion, with Orion's Belt acting as a good way of pointing towards it. Comparing the two it is also easy to notice the difference in colour as Betelgeuse is a red supergiant and looks reddish in colour, very different to Sirius.
A non red giant is a giant, whereas a supergiant is well a supergiant and is a lot bigger.
The supergiant is 7 astronomical units.
Supergiant Games was created in 2009.
The supergiant is 7 astronomical units.
Yes, it is a red supergiant star.
it is a dwarf planet the size of a supergiant.
The star that is hotter but less luminous than Polaris is Sirius B. While Sirius B has a surface temperature of around 25,000 K, significantly hotter than Polaris's approximately 6,000 K, it is a white dwarf and has much lower luminosity. Polaris, a supergiant star, shines brightly despite its cooler temperature due to its large size. Thus, Sirius B exemplifies the relationship between temperature and luminosity in stars.
