They are hard to spot because they give out very little energy. Most of their radiation is in the infra-red.

no


Is a brown dwarf bigger than the sun?

No Brown Dwarfs are too small to be considerred a star.


A dying star shrinks to this?

Dying stars eventually shrink into white dwarfs (which as they age eventually become red dwarfs and then brown dwarfs - but this takes an extremely long time).


What stars are cool and dim?

Brown dwarfs are failed stars, so they don't count. Red dwarfs are the kings when it comes to dimness


What is the dimmest type of star?

The dimmest type of star is a brown dwarf. Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that lack sufficient mass to sustain hydrogen fusion in their cores, which is the defining characteristic of true stars. They typically have masses between about 13 and 80 times that of Jupiter, making them much less luminous than even the faintest red dwarfs. As a result, they emit very little light and are often difficult to detect.


Which is the dullest star in the sky?

Brown dwarfs are often considered the dullest stars in the sky. They are not massive enough to sustain full nuclear fusion like regular stars, so they emit very little light and are difficult to detect.


Very small stars that are usually old and running out fuel are called?

Those are dwarf stars, which start out as white dwarfs and as they (very slowly) cool, become red dwarfs and eventually brown dwarfs.


What is the difference between brown dwarfs and Jupiter?

Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that are larger and more massive than planets like Jupiter. They are not massive enough to sustain nuclear fusion in their cores, which is a defining characteristic of stars. Jupiter, on the other hand, is a gas giant planet in our solar system.


What is the green dwarf name?

The name "green dwarf" is not typically used in astronomy to describe a type of star. Stars are classified based on their spectral characteristics which determine their color. Common types include red dwarfs, white dwarfs, and brown dwarfs, but not green dwarfs.


How does the brown dwarf make light and heat?

Brown dwarfs are heated primarily due to the compression of their interiors and are hot enough to glow. Some the the more massive brown dwarfs may also fuse deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, for a short period after they form.


What word means hard to detect or describe?

The word that means hard to detect or describe is elusive.
