Is the sun a low mass or high mass sequence star?
The sun is a low mass sequence star. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, which means it is in the middle of its stellar evolution and will remain stable for billions of years.
Is the Altair star high mass?
Altair is classified as an A-type main-sequence star, which means it is relatively high-mass compared to other stars like the Sun. Its mass is estimated to be about 1.8 times that of the Sun.
Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
Is vega a low medium or high mass star?
Vega has about 2.1 times the mass of the Sun. That's a fairly large mass; but you'll have to choose where you set the limit between "medium-mass" and "high-mass"! It is definitely not "low-mass"; in general, low-mass stars, i.e. red dwarves, can't be seen with the naked eye, even if they are in our immediate neighborhood. (The very closest star after the Sun is Proxima Centauri, and it can't be seen with the naked eye.) The main definition of a high mass star is a star that can eventually explode as a supernova. For that the star needs to be around at least 8 times the Sun's mass. I would say Vega is best thought of as "medium mass".
Is Sirius a low mass star?
It is, but at twice our suns mass, Sirius A is on the limit, of being an intimidate mass star. Sirius A will have a life cycle similar to that of our own star which is a low mass star, but burns hotter. Sirius B is a companion white dwarf star with a mass of around the same as our sun. Previously, it was thought to have been a star with a mass of around 5 times that of our sun, burning out more quickly than Sirius A.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star and which stage is it in?
The Sun is a medium mass star in main sequence.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass sequence star?
The sun is a low mass sequence star. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, which means it is in the middle of its stellar evolution and will remain stable for billions of years.
Is the sun a high mass star?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
Is a supergiant star high mass or low?
High, typically 10 to 70 times (or more) the mass of our own sun.
Is the Altair star high mass?
Altair is classified as an A-type main-sequence star, which means it is relatively high-mass compared to other stars like the Sun. Its mass is estimated to be about 1.8 times that of the Sun.

Is juveline star a low mass star or a high mass star?
Juvenile star is typically classified as a low mass star, as it is in the early stage of its life cycle. These stars have a mass similar to that of the Sun or less. They are characterized by their long lifespan and relatively stable nature.
Is eltanin a low or high mass star?
The mass of Gamma Draconis (Eltanin) is listed in Wikipedia as 1.7 times the mass of our Sun. That is a fairly high mass (even our Sun is in the top 10 percentile, according to mass), although much more massive stars do exist.
What will happen to a star when it dies?
It will explode as a supernova and fade away, leaving a neutron star or a black hole. That's only if the star is "high mass". For low mass stars like our Sun there's no explosion. This type of star will become a white dwarf star.
