Red giants.
Rigel has an apparent magnitude of around 0.12, making it one of the brightest stars in the sky. Its absolute magnitude, which measures intrinsic brightness, is around -7.0, indicating its high luminosity.
Does it mean that the star is a main sequesnce star? ( . Y . ) The above isn't true. A star can be a blue supergiant and be on the main sequence but still not be even visible to us, therefore the apparent and absolute magnitude wouldn't be the same. But to answer your question, I don't think it has a name, it just means that you are seeing the star's absolute and apparent magnitude at the same time, so if you placed the star at 32.6 light years away(the absolute magnitude scale)then the star would not appear to change in brightness
This star would be a white dwarf, as it has a high surface temperature of 20000 K but a low absolute magnitude of 10. White dwarfs are small, dense remnants of low to medium mass stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and collapsed.
A good example of a medium size star is the Sun, which is very average. Luminosity is measured by the star's absolute magnitude, which is the magnitude seen from a standard distance of ten parsecs (32.6 light-years), and the Sun's absolute magnitude is +4.7. A factor of 100 increase in luminosity corresponds to 5 magnitudes less (larger magnitudes mean dimmer stars). The brightest stars have absolute magnitudes around -7.
The brightest stars have a low magnitude. Magnitude is measured on a logarithmic scale where lower numbers indicate brighter objects. The brightest star in the night sky, Sirius, has a magnitude of -1.46.

There are two terms used to describe a stars brightness, absolute magnitude and apparent magnitude. The one you want is absolute magnitude - this is where the stars distance from us is taken out of the equation, effectively comparing the stars brightness side by side from a set distance (10 parsecs or 32.6 light years). Apparent magnitude is the other measure, this is how bright a star apparently looks from Earth. The huge distances and range of distances involved means that you can have very bright stars (high absolute magnitude) that apparently look as bright as a much closer but dimmer (low absolute magnitude) star - their apparent magnitudes might be similar, but they may have vastly different absolute magnitudes.
Probably. It is an extremely bright star (a very high absolute magnitude), with a high mass, and such stars tend to end up as a supernova.

Absolute zero and Absolute hot have not changed and can not change.

The main difference between the events that any auxiliary equipment is not used in the high jump by the athlete. In contrast, the athlete jumps with the pole as an assisting equipment in the pole vault to pass over the bar. All athletes have three attempts per height during the competition.
For a long times, it was considered to be VY Canis Majoris, but new studies have reduced its size. The present record is held by UY Scuti at 1708 times the diameter of the Sun. That works out to about 2,250,000,000km.
Apparent magnitude is the brightness of an object as seen from Earth without any atmosphere.Absolute magnitude is the brightness of an object as seen from a predetermined distance, depending on the object.For planets, the distance used is 1 AU (Astronomical Units). Stars and galaxies use 10 parsecs which is about 32.616 light years.The dimmer an object is the higher the positive value. The brighter an object is the higher the negative value.Examples:The Sun has an apparent magnitude of -26.74 but an absolute magnitude of 4.83Sirius has an apparent magnitude of -1.46 but an absolute magnitude of -1.42This means that from Earth, the Sun is a lot brighter, but if the Sun was replaced by Sirius, Sirius would be 25 times more luminous.See related links for more information
The brightest stars have a low magnitude. Magnitude is measured on a logarithmic scale where lower numbers indicate brighter objects. The brightest star in the night sky, Sirius, has a magnitude of -1.46.
