An H-R diagram, or Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, is a graphical representation that plots stars according to their luminosity (brightness) against their surface temperature (color). This diagram classifies stars into distinct groups, such as main sequence stars, giants, and white dwarfs, revealing their evolutionary stages. It helps astronomers understand stellar properties, life cycles, and the relationships between different types of stars. By analyzing the H-R diagram, scientists can gain insights into the age and evolution of star clusters and galaxies.
its located somewhere
The location on the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram where most stars lie is known as the main sequence. The HR diagram is a plot of stellar luminosity against surface temperature. The main sequence is a prominent band that extends diagonally across the HR diagram from high temperature and high luminosity to low temperature and low luminosity. The majority of stars, approximately 90% of all stars, are situated along the main sequence on the HR diagram. These stars are often referred to as main-sequence stars. They exhibit a smooth relationship between surface temperature and luminosity, with varying sizes and masses but sharing this common characteristic of lying on the diagonal band from the upper left to the lower right of the HR diagram.

The temperature and luminosity of stars.
On the main sequence.
On the HR diagram the Sun's spectrum is of type G2 which makes it yellow.
Of course they are on the HR diagram. They are simply not on the main sequence.
The HR diagram contains only stars - so everywhere.

The red dwarves.
Up at the top right. If you look on the Australian Telescope National facility website, their HR diagram shows this clearly.
The main reason that the HR Diagram is so useful and important to scientists is, you can tell the size of the star by plotting it on the HR Diagram. The different sizes of stars form a pattern on the HR diagram.
its located somewhere
All stars.
Slightly to the right of centre on the main sequence. If you look on the Australian Telescope National facility website, their HR diagram shows the position of the sun.
The colors of the HR Diagram are:BlueBlue-WhiteYellowOrangeRed-OrangeRed
Its called an HR diagram or a Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.
Black holes dont appear on HR diagrams because HR diagrams are used to classify stars not find black holes Black holes emit no visible light (are not luminous enough) and therefore do not appear in the HR diagram.
