Is the Betelgeuse star brighter than the Antares star?
Betelgeuse and Antares are both prominent red supergiant stars, but Betelgeuse is generally brighter than Antares. Betelgeuse has an apparent magnitude of about 0.42, while Antares has an apparent magnitude of around 1.0. This means that Betelgeuse appears brighter in the night sky compared to Antares. However, both stars are among the brightest in their respective constellations.
Which star is brighter -2 or -3?
The way stellar magnitude works, a smaller number is associated with increased brightness. Since -3 < -2, a magnitude -3 star would be brighter than a magnitude -2 star. Each decrease in magnitude by 1 means in increase in brightness by a factor of about 2.5119. Equivalently, each decrease in magnitude by 5 means an increase in brightness by a factor of 100. Incidentally, the brightest star in the sky (Sirius) has an apparent magnitude of only about -1.5.
Is a third magnitude star 10 times brighter then a 4th magnitude star?
Absolutely. When speaking of the brightness you see from earth, you are speaking of apparent magnitude. When considering the type of star, it's composition, stage, age, size, distance, etc., a star is also assigned an absolute magnitude, so the ranking of the star if seen from similar distances reveals the truth about a star. 3.26 light years away is the assumed distance in ranking stars. A star many times farther away than a second star may appear much brighter than the second star which is much closer, based partially on the various factors mentioned above. The lower the value for a magnitude, the brighter, or more correctly, the more luminous, a star. Thus, a 3.4 is brighter than a 5.1, for example. Long ago the scale was originally an arbitrary ranking based on certain stars that were considered to be the brightest. Since then, stars even brighter have been identified, thus the need to use values even less than zero. Only a handful of stars fall below zero in apparent magnitude. So then it is not significant where in the sky (in what constellation) a star lies, the magnitude value determines the brightness.
What star has a greater magnitude a Rigel or Sirius?
Sirius, which means that Rigel is brighter.
Does our sun have a lower absolute magnitude then Betelgeuse?
No, Betelgeuse has a lower absolute magnitude compared to the Sun. Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star with a much larger luminosity, making it appear brighter despite its greater distance from Earth.
What does purdah mean in India?
It means curtain. It is the practice of preventing women from being seen by men.
How many times brighter is a first magnitude star than a third magnitude?
2 magnitudes brighter means it's about 2.512 x 2.512 times brighter. So that's about 6.31 times brighter.
What is the definition of hyperintense?

What is the T6 means?
chapter
What is a pivotal chapter?
it means of vital or central importance in the chapter in bankruptcy.
Is there more photons in brighter light?
Yes, brighter light typically means more photons are present because brighter light has a higher intensity, which is measured by the number of photons hitting a given area over time. So, in a brighter light source, there are indeed more photons emitted.
Does the neon pillow pet glow?
No it does not glow glow it is just a brighter color then other pillow pets. I don't have it but neon means brighter not glow in the dark. Thank you ;)
Why is the sun appear brighter than alpha centauri b?
Our Sun appears brighter than Alpha Centauri B because of its proximity to our point of view. We are much closer to our Sun then any other star which means that our Sun will be much brighter then everything else in the sky.
