No Brown Dwarfs are too small to be considerred a star.
No, dwarf stars are smaller in size and mass compared to our Sun. They are classified by their lower luminosity and surface temperature.
The Dwarf Planet Pluto.
The dwarf planet, Pluto, is bigger than an asteroid, smaller than Mercury, and farther from the sun than Neptune. It used to be the smallest and furthest planet in our solar system.
The obvious reason is that the specific star has bigger density compared with the Sun. For example, that star could be a "white dwarf star". A white dwarf mostly contains "electron degenerate matter", which is very dense. A white dwarf is a small dense star.
There are many types of Dwarf stars - all with different diameters. Our Sun is a dwarf star! A typical neutron star has a diameter of about 24km our Sun has a diameter of 1.392×106 km So our Sun is about 58,000 times bigger than a neutron star.
Depends what type of dwarf star. - Our Sun is a yellow dwarf.
The mass of a red dwarf can go down to about 0.075 times the mass of the Sun. Anything smaller than that would be a brown dwarf, which is no longer considered a star.
Many stars are bigger than the sun. In fact the sun is called a yellow dwarf, or a G dwarf star meaning it is relatively small (i.e. a dwarf) compared to the "average star" in our galaxy.
YES. A typical white dwarf star is only a bit bigger than the Earth.
A brown dwarf would qualify.
Dwarf planet such as Pluto

No. A brown dwarf is a failed star, one that is not massive enough to start nuclear fusion. The sun is well above the threshold of fusion. When it dies it will become a white dwarf.
