What population stars are found in a sprial galaxy?
Population I (High metal content) stars are generally found in the arms of spiral galaxies, whereas population II (Medium metal content) are generally found towards the centre of the galaxies.
Where are the Population One and Population Two stars located in the Milky Way Galaxy?
Population I stars (metal-rich stars) are common in the Milky Way's spiral arms; Population II stars are more common in the galactic halo.For more details, you may want to read the Wikipedia article on "Metallicity". Note that in astronomy, "metal" is an informal name for elements other than hydrogen and helium. This usage is quite different from the usage in chemistry.
How are population I stars and population II stars different?
Population I stars are younger, typically found in the spiral arms of galaxies, and have a higher metallicity, meaning they contain more elements heavier than hydrogen and helium. In contrast, Population II stars are older, often located in the galactic halo and globular clusters, and have a lower metallicity, indicating they formed earlier in the universe's history when fewer heavy elements were available. This distinction reflects their formation environments and the evolutionary history of the galaxy.

Can stars exist outside a galaxy?
Yes, stars can exist outside of a galaxy. These stars are typically referred to as intergalactic stars, and they may have been ejected from their original galaxy due to interactions with other stars or galactic dynamics. Intergalactic stars are typically found in the space between galaxies.
Where are the oldest stars in the galaxy located?
The oldest stars in a galaxy are usually located towards the centre. Also known as the bulge.
How are population 1 stars and population 2 stars different?
Population 1 stars are luminous. They include the Sun and are hot and young stars. These types are usually found in spiral galaxies. Population 2 stars are found in nucleuses of galaxies and globular galaxies. These stars are older and usually cooler than the population 1 ones.
What is a galaxy and in which galaxy is the solar system located?
a galaxy is a huge city of stars and the solar system is located in the milky way galaxy that's our galaxy!
Where are the oldest elliptical stars located?
they are located in the middle of the galaxy
Where are the stars located in our galaxy?
All over the place.
What is the dust and gas located between stars in a galaxy called?
The dust and gas located between stars in a galaxy is called the interstellar medium (ISM). This material plays a crucial role in the formation of new stars and planets within the galaxy.
Where the stars are located within the spiral galaxy?
out side technically it is not inside
What has a mass of gases dust particles and stars that are located in space?
A galaxy.
Why are stars in your galaxy?
A galaxy is by a definition a group of stars. If there were no stars it could not be a galaxy.
What galaxy are the stars you see at night?
I think most of them are in the Milky Way galaxy, that's where our solar system is located.
What population stars are found in a sprial galaxy?
Population I (High metal content) stars are generally found in the arms of spiral galaxies, whereas population II (Medium metal content) are generally found towards the centre of the galaxies.
At what galaxy are stars?
Every galaxy contains stars, if that's what you mean. "Galaxy" means "big bunch of stars". No stars ===> no galaxy.
