Dwarf stars are NOT "so much Bright", the smaller the star is (provided it is on the main sequence) the less intrinsically bright it is.

Why dwarf stars are so bright?

Dwarf stars are NOT "so much Bright", the smaller the star is (provided it is on the main sequence) the less intrinsically bright it is.


Why are thre so many dwarf stars - red and white - among the nearest stars but none among the brightest stars?

Because dwarf stars aren't very bright. They are too SMALL to be especially bright, for one thing.


How much power does a star in your galaxy have?

Every star is different. Some stars are millions of times brighter than our Sun, while some stars are so small that they barely glow at all. We can easily see the big, bright stars - but we have no idea how many tiny "red dwarf" or "brown dwarf" stars there might be. They are so dim, that we cannot see them from so far away.


Do Dwarf galaxies contain only dwarf stars?

Dwarf galaxies merely refer to the size of the galaxy itself, not the stars in the galaxy, so no.


What group of stars are bright but not hot?

White dwarf stars are bright due to their compact nature, but they are not hot in terms of surface temperature compared to other types of stars. They are "dead" stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and are slowly cooling off over time.


Why might stars of one color be much more abundant than stars of another color?

Red Dwarf stars are the commonest in the Galaxy. Red Dwarf stars last much longer than blue stars for example. So you would expect to find more of these red stars. You need a telescope to see them, but they are very common.


Can you give an example of a hot star which is not very bright?

A white dwarf star can be very hot due to residual heat from its earlier evolution, but it may not be very bright because of its small size. This is because the heat energy is spread over a smaller surface area compared to larger, brighter stars.


What stars are cool stars?

Red Dwarf stars. Brown Dwarfs are failed stars, so they don't count.


What happens to a nova star after it becomes so bright?

after a nova star becomes bright it turns into a dwarf and explodes.


What are the dimmest stars?

Black dwarf stars, they have cooled off so much they emit no detectable light (but some emit small amounts of microwaves that are barely detectable).


Why is the sun a dwarf star?

A yellow dwarf star, is a star on the main sequence that has a temperature range of between 5,200 to 6,000 Kelvin. It has a spectral class of G or possibly F.Our Sun is a yellow dwarf - much as you may not believe it, it is a dwarf compared to other stars!!See related question for a size comparison


Is a white dwarfs hot and dim or hot and bright?

As the name white dwarf implies, this is a small type of star, and it has less surface area from which to radiate light, so even if it is hot, and giving off lots of light per square mile, there are fewer square miles than in larger, non-dwarf stars, so there is less total light being emitted.
